Thank you to the person who asked for this video! And thank you Dr. Bri for such helpful content. I’m new to your channel & it’s binge worthy AND life changing. I appreciate what you’re doing so much! 🙂

[joannegarnham]

Brilliant! Absolutely brilliant, for everyone who spends so much time these days in cars or planes or trains! As you say we need to keep moving as much as we can, so helpful these little movements and it’s just basic common sense aswell! Keep up the great work you’ve helped me tremendously with my pelvic issues I do one of your videos every day! Xx 👍👌❤️❤️

[annegallagher]

Thank you Bri, you read my mind today, after driving for 3hrs and sitting at my course today for 7hrs, I came home and complained about sitting all day, then I opened my mail box and there was a link to your video:) Brilliant tips, thank you so much! I had already started doing a kind of heart circle dance to music at traffic lights!!

[jro]

Always so helpful. AND, can I just add, those white seats are immaculate! 🙂

[foresthillmom]

Woohoo, I requested this topic and I can’t WAIT to listen. I saw the title and squealed. Thank you Dr.

[TawnyaKordenbrock]

Wow! Thank you so much for this!
I was actually just this morning wishing I had some instruction on how to manage my pelvic floor while in the car.
Anything more you would add for when you’re driving?

[marieduvanced]

Thank you 🙏 you have changed my life ❤

I have a trip coming up in a few days and am feeling so much more confident having watched that, thank you so much Dr Bri

[michelleinScotland]

Thank you. I think that is going to be sooo useful. Just had a, actually fairly short car journey ( an hour and a half) but the seat wasn't how I like it - now I'm paying for it.

[naturegirl]

I just had surgery 5 weeks ago and have to go back for Post op again in a few weeks. 6 hrs each way. Thanks Dr. Bri.

[emmaeIIe]

That's briliant. Thanks so much for those valuable tips.

[bradcolorado]

So incredibly helpful for those of us who travel for work, thanks !

[marthaibarra]

thank you Dr. Bris for all your information about pelvis health.

[lilu]

Very useful, thank you so much! Have to seat at work for 10 hrs, will do your tips❤

[JackSquat]

Getting ready for a long drive, this is very helpful!

[tiffanyhaller]

This is so helpful! I get stressed when I’m long trips because I’ve had too many bad experiences with accidents. In part because I don’t necessarily feel the urge to have to go until it’s urgent. I can remember being in so much pain one time and thinking I was literally going to explode. Knowing I have this in my toolbox will help ease the stress that exacerbates my issue. I also get constipated when traveling many times. This has been a nightmare for urgency while traveling. 😩😭😰

[susanshebitz]

Great tips, so timely for me, going on a car trip next week and I always have problems going pee after sitting in the car ! Thanks ! ❤️

[yolandahilario]

[brendapeter]

These tips are so wonderful! God bless you!

[lisaeidson]

Great content! I’m going to save this for the next time I travel.
