Tips to actually relax in childs pose #yogatips

Spreading my legs wide helped me! Not as much pressure on my belly

Child's pose is my absolute go to for relaxing

Thank you! I used to not have problems with child's pose, but after a long break from yoga, I've found I'm so uncomfortable now. Will try these modifications and hopefully I can enjoy one of my favorite poses again 💜

Thank you, Charlie! The pose I feel everyone but I can do 😅 Been doing yoga for nearly a decade and now a yoga teacher. My bum is much closer to the back of the legs now, but I still can’t fully sit in child’s pose even with knees further apart.

Hi, question ., does the glutes need to touch the feet while resting in child pose ? Because as I stretch forward they move away from feet and rise up a bit . How do I fix this?

Thank you so much for this. For some reason when my knees bend in child’s pose, my left knee pops and feels like it’s out of socket. It’s done this since I was a child. It’s excruciating and humiliating during yoga. I usually just wait child’s pose out until everyone is finished and then keep flowing. I feel so left out though, I just can’t seem to get into this position. Do you have any suggestions?

I’ve never seen child’s pose like this. I’ve always seen it with big toes tucking and knees wide but I’m gonna try the more narrow one. It might do some nice things for my back.

I used to find childs pose really relaxing, but now I've gotten stronger in climbing I find it much harder to relax into

It’s the head for me I cannot find a comfortable position to rest my head nose always gets in the way 😅

I have an issue where I can’t relax my feet and they end up cramping really bad whenever I’m in child’s pose does anyone have any tips or advice?😅

Never understood how this is a "resting" pose! The front of my hips feel so much bone on bone pressure. This is great modifications but i always feel so awkward/poorly timed moving several props mid-class

[qutiecee]

I always feel like my belly is in the way

[kamialmeida]

Can you give a tip or two for those of us whose chests get in the way? Lol

[chastiana]

I thought child pose was with legs bent and wide open?
