The hero pose is one of the most basic seated yoga posture and is also excellent during meditation. The internal rotation to the upper legs and knees is the opposite to the movement of the lotus pose (which I will explain what is in my next blog!) It loosens up your hips to be prepared in your next pose which would be the lotus pose and acts as a mild counter pose. The hero pose is also the starting pose to the introduction of yoga. So to start off make you're not wearing any heaving clothes as it could start to get heavy and weigh you down.
How to hero pose :
Hands and knees on the ground
Sit between your feet by first supporting yourself with your hands
And still tall!
We call this move the hero pose because it teaches us how to sit with a little bit of pain and if you can tolerate it you known as a "hero"
I really like doing the hero pose in my opinion because it relaxes me and challenges me to keep going. I think it is one of the easiest poses to pull off in yoga!
