đ§Supta Baddha Konasan a With Strap Bolster And Blanket.
â¨This is a relaxing pose that is also a hip opener. As a restorative pose, you should be as supported and comfortable as possible. The goal is to stay in the pose for 10 minutes while gravity works to deepen your stretch as you clear your mind.
Step-by-Step InstructionsâŚ
1. Come to lie on your back.
2. Bend your knees, keeping the soles of your feet on the floor.
3. Open your knees out to either side, bringing the soles of your feet together. The legs will be in the same position as they are in Cobblerâs Pose (Baddha Konasana).
4. Your arms can be in any comfortable positionâout in a T shape, overhead, relaxed by your sides or resting on your thighs are some options.
5. Stay here several minutes as gravity works to deepen your stretch. Breathe naturally throughout the pose.
To come out, reach down and help your knees come back together. Then roll over to one side and use your hands to support you as you sit up.
(Benefits)
This pose relaxes and quiets the mind. It opens the groins and hips. The group of muscles called the hip flexors get tight when you spend a lot of time sitting. Stretching them can help relieve and prevent back pain and sciatica.
