Pelvic Floor Cue Check: Find the Cue That Works for Your Body

Episode #1

In this guided self-check, you’ll learn how to find the pelvic floor cue that works best for your body.

Many people are told to “lift your pelvic floor” or “do your Kegels,” but if you’ve never actually felt that muscle before, those instructions can feel confusing or frustrating.

That’s where cues come in.

A cue is simply a phrase or mental image that helps your brain connect with the pelvic floor muscles. Research has shown that certain cues help people activate these muscles more effectively.

In this short guided session, we’ll explore four evidence-based pelvic floor cues and help you discover which one creates the clearest sensation of a gentle lift.

You’ll be guided through:

  • Setting up your posture so your pelvic floor can engage properly

  • Avoiding common mistakes like bracing your glutes or sucking in your stomach

  • Trying four different pelvic floor cues

  • Identifying the cue that works best for your body

  • Practicing the lift and release pattern that healthy pelvic floors rely on

Once you find the cue that works for you, it becomes much easier to engage your pelvic floor during exercise and everyday life.
