Spotlight on hips

Have you been practising hip openers consistently and still find it hard to sit in Lotus pose/cross leg pose?

It is because we miss out on Abductor muscles. These muscles are responsible for pelvic stabilization, hence allow to go deeper into the seated posture.

The stretch suggested in the video also decompresses the hip region inducing relaxation in the whole pelvic region.

If you have long seated hours abductors muscles can become very stiff. This stretch when practiced everyday can help release tension from all the adjoining muscles.

Please ensure to:

• Use yoga block
• Keep spine straight
• Fold only as per your capacity
• Cool down after the stretch.
