Vajrasana Pose

I find vajrasana very difficult for more than a few minutes. We often do it for taking refuge vows or other vows, but I don’t think it’s realistic to meditate in vajrasana. It’s too hard on the feet and ankles. However, we can use a meditation bench.

Vajrasana Pose

Vajrasana, also known as Diamond Pose, is a simple yet powerful yoga posture that can energize your body and mind. ‍♀️

Benefits:

• Spark your digestion: Sitting in Vajrasana after meals can stimulate your digestive organs, promoting better nutrient absorption.
• Boost your circulation: This pose helps improve blood flow throughout the body, leaving you feeling refreshed and invigorated. 🩸
• Find inner peace: Vajrasana can calm your mind and promote relaxation, making it a great addition to your meditation practice.

How to:

1. Kneel down: Begin on your knees, sitting on your heels with your toes pointed back.
2. Align your feet: Bring the soles of your feet together, with your big toes touching.
3. Sit back: Gently lower your buttocks back towards your heels, resting your thighs on your calves.
4. Lengthen your spine: Sit tall and elongate your spine, keeping your shoulders relaxed and chest open.
5. Rest your hands: Place your hands comfortably on your knees or thighs.
6. Breathe: Close your eyes (if comfortable) and take slow, deep breaths.

Tips:

• If sitting directly on your heels in Vajrasana pose is uncomfortable, place a folded blanket or towel between your buttocks and heels for extra padding.
• Beginners can start by holding the pose for a few breaths and gradually increase the duration as comfort improves.

Remember: Avoid Vajrasana pose if you have any knee injuries or discomfort. Stop if ankles have to much pain.
