Members: What are your favorite yoga tweaks? 

One of the best things about practicing yoga at home is that we can adjust poses to suit our own bodies. At in-person classes, sometimes we feel pressure to conform – even if things don't feel quite right.

Is there a particular pose you tend to modify every time it comes up?

Here's an example from my own practice: While I enjoy downward dog, it's not a restful position for me. This is likely due to the way my upper body is built. When teachers say to "rest" in dog for more than a few breaths, I typically shorten it and drop into plank pose or child's.

I'd love to hear about the modifications you regularly do in your practice – share in a comment below! 🌿👇🏽
