Start with a folded blanket or foam block to sit on. Sit at the front edge of the block and fold the legs into a comfortable cross-legged position. Allow the knees to open wide and let one foot rest in front of the other. Allow the upper legs and shins to form a small triangle of space in front of the body. Allow the weight to rest evenly in the sitz bones keeping the pelvis in a neutral position. Lengthen the spine up from the pelvis. Allow the ribcage to float on top of the pelvis and the head to align over the torso.<\/p>\n

There are several different options for the hands. The palms can be placed in the lap with one hand resting in the other- a mudra can be created by bringing the thumbs together to touch. Alternatively the hands can be placed on top of the knees wither with the palms down (a more grounding approach) or with the palms up- perhaps taking one of several mudras.<\/p>\n

This posture can be held for any length of time and is a comfortable position to work on meditation.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
