The Hip Reset

Begin with Somatic hip raises and pelvic movements to target tightness around the hips. Then, using a small ball such as a tennis ball, we will explore a juicy myofascial release for the gluteal muscles, TFL, and psoas. These practices help reduce tension, support relaxation, improve hip mobility, and promote healthier hip function.

Explore a series of mindful movements to improve hip mobility through internal and external rotation and then activating the muscles that help stabilize your hips and pelvis. You'll work through different ranges of motion, including side-lying leg movements, to explore greater mobility in the hip joint. Gradually find more range without forcing or pushing beyond your comfort zone.

Build strength in the glutes and key muscles that support your hips, pelvis, and back. This practice includes bridge variations, side-lying clamshells, and controlled leg movements to challenge hip stability and core strength. Work at your own pace, with options to adjust the exercises or add light resistance as you build strength, balance, and control for everyday movement.

Bring together what you've explored over the past four days with a full-body practice combining hip mobility, core awareness, strength, and stability. You'll move through floor-based exercises, standing mobility flows, and balance work before finishing with myofascial release using a small ball and finishing with a guided relaxation. Thank you for joining me for this 4-Day Hip Reset. I hope the practices have given you a better understanding of your hips and some useful ways to care for them through movement, release, and strength. Remember, small, consistent steps can make a difference. You can always come back to these practices whenever you feel you need a little more mobility, strength, or time to care for your hips. Move and rest part of your ongoing self-care. I would love to hear how it was for you.
