Seated Twists: Connecting Mind and Body
The practice then transitioned to seated positions, beginning with Baddha Konasana or Butterfly Pose. As participants tilted their pelvis forward, they were prompted to press their hearts towards their toes, which allowed a deeper fold. Following this, they shifted into a pretzel position for a series of seated twists, promoting spinal mobility and deepening the breath. Throughout this segment, the importance of grounding the hips and maintaining a tall spine was emphasized, allowing participants to find individualized support in their practice.
