It’s great that you’re comfortable with the furniture-supported saddle version and dragon on your back. Both of these approaches can be really helpful.

I think you may be talking about Seiza – and I'm glad to hear your blocks are helping! They can truly be a game-changer for that pose.

Sitting on a block is a popular way to modify Seiza. Glad to know it's working for you, Theresa!

That's a great functional approach to half saddle! Thanks for sharing, Bob.

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! 🌿👇🏽

I think it may only work if you follow the videos on the calendar…

I haven't actually guided it in a while. Maybe it's time for a comeback!
