Lotus Pose
- 1 - Start by sitting on the floor with your legs extended straight in front of you.
- 2 - Bend your right knee and bring your right foot toward your left hip, so the sole of your right foot faces upward.
- 3 - Bend your left knee and bring your left foot toward your right hip, placing the sole of your left foot on top of your right thigh.
- 4 - Your knees should ideally touch the ground, and your feet should be flexed, with the tops of your feet resting on your thighs.
- 5 - Sit up straight with your spine aligned and your shoulders relaxed.
- 6 - Place your hands on your knees with your palms facing up, or you can form the Gyan Mudra (touch the tip of your index finger to the tip of your thumb) with your hands resting on your knees.
- 7 - Hold the pose for 30 seconds to several minutes, taking slow and deep breaths.
- 8 - To release, gently lift one foot at a time from the thigh, straightening your legs, and returning to a seated position.
