LIZARD 🦎 POSE …is an intermediate pose which is done in prone position.
Many yoga poses were named after animals, and although there is typically a hidden meaning in them, in the case of Lizard pose, the name is quite literal. Once you reach the pose, you will appear as a stretched lizard sitting on a rock and bathing in the sun. Lizards are very flexible, and we are trying to acquire this same flexibility with this asana.
In the case of intense poses such as Lizard, students are often comparing themselves to others, especially in a studio setting. Comparing doesn’t only block you mentally, but may also lead you to go beyond your limits and injure yourself when it comes to deep stretches like Lizard.
Rather than trying to achieve a picture-perfect pose, forget how it looks and observe how it feels.
Find an angle and setup that works for your body, and only when you adapt the pose to become your own, will you be able to enjoy its full benefits.
