Sage Pose, Parivrtta Marichyasanaor is a seated twist that might be challenging if you have an abundant middle body.
In this video, we explore how to:
- Adapt the pose to accommodate an abundant middle or full bust
- Raise the height of the hips to find a bit more ease in the pose
- Find more openness and ease in the pose by flipping the direction of the twist so that you twist away from the bent leg rather than toward it
- Use a simple seated twist to get the same benefits as Sage Pose without having to fold the legs or hook the elbow on the knee
