Pigeon pose

Pigeon pose is one of my favourite yoga poses. This hip-opener is perfect for relieving lower back tension, stretching the groin and psoas muscles and one of the best poses for sciatica🌿✨ It creates a deep hip and thigh stretch and is an excellent choice to follow up on after challenging strengthening poses. For pregnant women, it is ideal for releasing tension in the hips and lower back. 
Since few weeks ago, I have lower back pain which I never had before becoming pregnant🤰🏻
As the uterus expands, it shifts the center of gravity and also stretches out (and weakens) the abdominal muscles, affecting the posture and putting strain on the back. It may also cause back pain if it's pressing on a nerve. Plus, the extra weight I’m carrying means more work for my muscles and increased stress on the joints, which is why the back may feel worse at the end of the day🧘🏻‍♀️ૐ
