"Fight, Flight, or Freeze: The Psoas Muscle’s Role in Stress"

✅ The psoas muscle's function and how it connects the spine to the legs

✅ Its role in stress responses—including fight, flight, and freeze

✅ Why mindful movement is often better than aggressive stretching

✅ How chronic tension can impact posture, back pain, and overall well-being T

he science is still evolving, but understanding the psoas might offer helpful insights into movement and stress management. Whether you're an athlete, a movement coach, or just curious about your body, this video will give you a fresh perspective.
