a note on Diastasis Recti

Dealing with Diastasis Recti (DR) is troubling for many. It afflicts all body types, from the toughest yogis to the least flexible movers.

The question as to whether one belly has DR over another depends on several variables:

what kind of activities you did leading up to & during pregnancy

whether you've had multiple pregnancies

how your body recovered from earlier pregnancies

how the soft tissue (linea alba) of your abdomen responded to your postpartum movement

Whether dealing with extreme separation or a more moderate one, there is always an opportunity for healing. Even if it's been years since your last pregnancy, the variables that are under your control now relate to how well you integrate deep core work into your everyday movement.

A consistent reinforcement of the pelvic floor and abdominal muscles will restore their elasticity and heal the linea alba that causes the separation.  

The Breathing Body is a program that will support your DR healing process.
