I remained in the awkward position on the yoga mat for as long as I could manage. I had no idea how these Kegel exercises were supposed to help my bladder, but it’s what the doctor said to do so I’ve been following his instructions down to the letter without any positive results so far.
This current pose had me resting on my shoulders with my arms stretched forward. I had my knees lifted up in the air so that I was holding my body at a forty-five-degree angle. My back ached. I could only manage to hold the post for about twenty seconds at a time, so I had to rest frequently between attempts. I wasn’t even certain that I was doing it correctly.
