The Beginner's Guide to Hatha Yoga

Squatting Pose

Squatting helps us to lengthen our lower backs and to strengthen our knees, ankles, and hips.

1. Turn your feet slightly outward. Bend your knees and adopt a deep squatting position. Place a block under both heels if you have problems squatting. Keep your palms together, and gently press your elbows into the insides of your knees. Hold this position for a few breaths.
2. Clash your hands and lower your forehead so that it rests on your thumbs. Close your eyes and gently rock back and forth for a few minutes. Gradually reduce your movements until you are still again.
3. Lift your head and neck to straighten your back and open your eyes.
