Pelvic Yoga

I’ll admit: I side-eyed the title at first. *Pelvic Yoga* sounded like something my physical therapist would assign as homework—dry, clinical, maybe a little embarrassing. But Bonura’s audiobook is the opposite of a chore. Within the first 20 minutes, I was paused mid-walk, clenching muscles I’d ignored for decades, thanks to her knack for turning anatomy into actionable steps. The real standout? How she frames pelvic health as *preventative care*, not damage control. This isn’t just for people with prolapse or incontinence; it’s for anyone who sits, breathes, or ages. Stephanie Murphy’s narration deserves praise for avoiding the two pitfalls of wellness audiobooks: either sounding like a robotic manual or an over-caffeinated influencer. Her tone is *confidently neutral*—clear enough for complex instructions (like distinguishing between transverse abdominis and pelvic floor engagement), but warm enough to feel like a one-on-one session. My only critique? The lack of a PDF companion for visual learners. While Bonura’s verbal cues are excellent, a diagram of the “pelvic diamond” or “tailbone tucks” would’ve been gold. And at just over two hours, I wished for a chapter recapping the *sequence* of exercises for easy reference—though, to be fair, that’s what the replay button is for. Bottom line: If you’ve ever Googled “why does my lower back hurt when I sneeze,” this audiobook is your answer.
