Great video! Thanks for sharing. Mula Bandha aka the root lock is a vital and unique aspect of the Ashtanga Vinyasa tradition. Richard once said just when you think you have got Mula Bandha you don't yet you are close. A+ video. Thanks!

For Mula Bandha only engage the lower abdominal muscles. The response in the pelvic floor is passive. The pelvic floor is gently lifted as the lower abs are drawn back and up slightly. Any intentional contraction in the pelvic floor compromises mula bandha and compromises the overall effects we're trying to achieve with the nervous system during practice.

That final mention of Kino was ilarious 🙊☺️😜

[@mbandha]

The vagus nerve does not reach the pelvic floor. This is basic anatomy. She also throws in polyvagal without elaborating on this specific theory. If, indeed, mula bandha affects the parasympathetic nervous system, it might be by means of Luschka's gland, which is located near the tip of the coccyx.
