The cross leg pose is a comfortable and grounding seated position widely used in yoga and meditation practices. It involves sitting with the legs gently folded and crossed in front of the body while maintaining an upright spine. This simple posture helps improve posture, encourages relaxation, and supports steady, mindful breathing. Practicing the cross leg pose regularly can increase flexibility in the hips and thighs while also strengthening the back muscles. It is an ideal position for meditation, pranayama, or quiet reflection because it creates stability and balance in the body. Beginners can use a cushion or folded blanket under the hips to make the cross leg pose more comfortable and supportive during longer periods of sitting.
