Good question. If we think about "containing" the lower front ribs and keeping the lower back ribs broad whilst access some abdominal strength this can help prevent the lower ribs from flaring. For those who are stiff in the spine, it may be ok to allow some of this flaring in order to explore the mobilising of the upper back and in time then work on containing.

Thank you so much 😊

It is hard for me to answer that if I cannot see you. Perhaps you aren't using enough height under your shoulders, perhaps the height you are using is too soft, perhaps you are not yet strong enough. My suggestion is to use the wall as I show in this video around the 10 minute mark. See if you can use your leg strength to help you lift your torso up.

@@IyengarYogawithHeather Thankyou 🙏

Great. Glad you found it relaxing and helpful for your cold. Thanks for your feedback 😀🙏

Yes it can be challenging. Go at your pace and keep practicing. Before you know it you will feel stronger 😀😀😀

You're welcome, glad you appreciate my instructions. You could try doing this practice just before going to bed but it can also be done at some point during the day in order to allow the nervous system to relax and unwind, as long as you're not doing something stimulating before going to bed (which can include screen time). Hopefully it helps 😀

You're welcome. Glad you enjoyed it 😀🙏

My encouragement would be to ensure your stance between the feet is wide - at least the length of one of your legs. If your stance between the feet is wide enough and you catch the big toe we usually find that the arm is not at a 90 angle to the torso and the ground but rather it is diagonal. Of course you can explore a wider stance, a shorter stance, along with holding the ankle or catching the big toe. The hand on the ankle or shin is more often the way the pose is presented in the Iyengar method.

Thanks, glad you appreciate it. 😀🙏

In this video I didn't have the buttocks against the wall for Trikonasana but perhaps you practiced it that way. It is ok to have only one buttock on the wall when doing Trikonasana for example if your back body is against the wall and you turn your right leg out and go over the right leg, your right buttock will be on the wall and the left buttock will not be on the wall. That is normal. 😀 I hope I am understanding your question. Let me know if not.
