How to practice

Sit with your legs comfortably crossed and hug them lightly. Keep your spine lifted and breathe into your back, leaving lotus and arm threading out.

Benefits

Combines a compact lotus balance with coordination and awareness of the body's center of gravity.

Who should avoid or modify

  • Only attempt if lotus is painless. Never force the arms between the legs, and avoid rolling onto the neck; skip with knee or hip injury or during pregnancy.
