Try to sit down into the Yogi Squat! This asana has a grounding quality, this means it taps into a downward-flowing energy.
Conventional sitting puts your weight onto another object by placing your butt on it and turning many critical muscles off. A resting squat is a posture where you squat down fully, lowering your hips towards the ground and your weight is equally distributed and controlled by your body.
For countless ages throughout time, human beings have been able to crouch all the way down into a resting squat for relaxing, working, cooking, communing, and even for using the bathroom.
If you want to give it a try, keep an eye on your heels, your knees and your back.
🔸 If your heels rise up, place a rolled blanket underneath.
🔸 Keep your knees far away from each other. This is a nice stretch for the hip muscles.
🔸 Your back is in one line from the tailbone to the top of your head.
So, the next time you are waiting for the bus and lovely nanas are occupying the seats, go down and do something good for your health instead of standing.
It is unfamiliar at the beginning (the squatting itself as doing it in public), but you get used to it! 😅
