Wonderful, Stefanie! I really hope you enjoy the deck. Be sure to write a review if you get a chance!

This was filmed on Maui 🏝️

Awesome, Camille - really hope you enjoy it. Don’t forget to leave a review on Amazon or wherever you bought it! 🤩

Lynette McDonald it’s more likely your bone structure, as Diane said. Many people find square pose difficult for this reason.

"her majesty" 😆 — love it! And how funny that this alternative shoelace-entry method you describe can make such a difference.

Happy Baby is meant to be a relaxing pose, so if that's not your experience, a swap is definitely in order! It sounds like your frustration may also be trigger old wounds – which must be difficult since our yoga practice is supposed to be a safe place.Sounds like a great reason to remove happy pose from your repertoire and replace it with something that feels GOOD to your body – while still giving you a stretch in the same target area (low back).Upside-down child's pose (aka hugging your knees while on your back) makes a good alternative. Frog-on-the-wall is also a lovely one. Another idea is to place a cushion under your seat in happy baby – elevating your hips is a game changer for some people.It's possible you just didn't hit the body-proportion lottery for this particular pose – but keep in mind – proportions that hinder one pose can often be helpful in other poses.Wishing you the best as you explore alternatives that make your body feel whole and happy. 😊❤️

Hi everyone! ❤️ My forehead is okay—just a bit bruised from a minor collision with a table corner last week! It feels much better than it looks. 😅

I’d love to know: which part of your body felt the most 'release' during this flow? Let me know below!👇🏽

I have heard from a lot of people who don’t love Sphinx… you’re not alone!
