Part 6/7:
After several moments of stretching and adjusting, Hillman advances to pigeon pose, a deep stretch that targets the outer hip and gluteal areas. Modifications are provided for those who find this pose challenging, reminding participants that the stretch’s intent is more important than perfect form.
Returning to Stillness
After completing the series of stretches, Hillman gradually guides everyone back to a seated position on the mat. It's a time to reflect on the practice and notice the differences in how the body feels. Hillman emphasizes the effectiveness of even brief sessions focused on stretching and mindfulness, reinforcing that consistency is key for long-term relief from sciatic pain.
