Chair Pose isn’t just pretend sitting. It’s a chance to build strength while staying grounded, centered, and curious about what your body can do, even when your thighs start to talk back.
In honor of Self-Care Month, we’re spotlighting Chair Pose to explore what it means to root down, rise up, and stay connected to your breath, especially when life gets wobbly.
✨ Benefits of Chair Pose:
Strengthens legs, glutes, and core
Builds endurance and concentration
Improves balance and body awareness
Encourages grounding in the midst of challenge
Prep your Chair Pose with intention:
Soften your low back by lengthening your tailbone down
Widen through your sit bones to allow space for the pelvis
Lift up through a wide, open collarbone space
Relax the shoulders as the spine lengthens
These subtle shifts help relieve unnecessary tension and send engagement right where you want it, through your glutes, thighs, and core — instead of clenching in your back or shoulders.
Chair Pose is a reminder: strength doesn’t always roar. Sometimes it’s just a slow, steady breath while your legs shake, and that’s enough.
