Triple Sneeze and Pelvic Floor!

As you know May is my favourite month of the year but with the hedgerows and fields bursting into life comes the plumes of pollen wafting and swirling into the air. As a child it never bothered me, in my twenties, thirties and well into my forties I was still foot loose and fancy free, but now in my fifties I can well and truly say I suffer with hay fever. It starts with a tickly cough followed by itchy eyes and then the sneezing starts. Today in the car I had a triple sneeze attack. Gripping the steering wheel, gripping even tighter with my pelvic floor, the sneezing was upon me. The automatic response for my body to close my eyes really isn’t helpful when I’m driving and in the midst of the sneezing I wondered if I was ever going to come up for air let alone what side of the road was I going to be on?!

Thank goodness for Pilates I say!
