We usually talk a lot about sitting in a corner. Today, I’m going to share sitting in a corner again because some fans have asked this question again, and the answer in the comments is limited in word count and content. Therefore, I decided to share it in the form of an article..
Today’s sharing about sitting angle posture is entirely based on my wildness in practice. However, although it is wildness, I can guarantee to practice once a day according to my wildness, for about ten days, so that you can fall to the floor while doing sitting angle posture. Suitable for beginners as well.
Sitting on the mat, open your feet to both sides and bend your body forward to your own range..
The first and most basic and important step in sitting postures is to adjust the pelvic alignment, and sitting angle is no exception..
The most common types of pelvic misalignment are anterior and posterior pelvic tilt. A forward tilt of the pelvis can cause a collapsed waist, while a backward tilt of the pelvis can cause a hunched back..
In terms of sitting angle, the most headache is arching the back, which means tilting the pelvis backwards..
The solution is simple: take a pillow, sit at the front of the pillow or simply sit at a corner of the pillow, and first adjust the pelvis..
My first wild trick has emerged: take a closer look at the following paragraph. It’s best to do it while watching..
First, let the sitting bones compact, then support the ground with both hands, lift your head, and lean your body forward. While keeping your body leaning forward, shake your hips left and right, feeling like you are walking forward with your hips, until your sitting bones are still pressed against the pillow, but the center of gravity of your hips falls onto the cushion and stops..
If you don’t quite understand the previous paragraph, continue reading the next one..
Explanation: In fact, at this point, it is no longer the pressure of the ischium on the ground, but the center of gravity has moved slightly towards the front of the ischium. My own feeling is that the ischium is pressed against the pillow, and the buttocks in front of the ischium are resting on the cushion, while the buttocks behind the ischium are suspended (usually our center of gravity should be on the ischium, but here we need to place our center of gravity on the buttocks in front of the ischium) So, from the beginning, you should sit at the front edge or corner of the pillow. The advantage of doing so is to keep the pelvis in a slightly forward leaning position, providing support to the pelvis to compensate for insufficient strength in the front of the thighs and abdomen, which limits the range of forward flexion that follows..
For many people who initially struggle to sit up straight, this is very, very important. Of course, in a formal classroom, teachers may not teach you this, but this is a wild road..
This is the first key point to doing a good sitting angle: not raising the entire buttocks, but raising the sitting bones; Do not place the center of gravity on the ischium, but move a little towards the front of the ischium and not on the pillow, but on the cushion..
In the sitting angle pose of the pose, it is not the sitting bone that presses the bottom. Our purpose in doing so is to create a better forward leaning track for the pelvis and push it back..
Let’s take a look at my second technique..
Support your hands on the ground in front of you, shake your hips back and forth, and stop stabilizing when you reach the front. Move your hands to both sides of your hips and push them forward. At this time, you can push and shake your hips left and right to feel the stretching sensation on the inside of your thighs..
After shaking for a while, maintain all forward forces and remain static..
During the maintenance process, feel the stretching sensation on the inner side of the thighs, and feel that the stretching sensation is not as strong anymore. Repeat the previous action, which is to move your hand to the front and sway back and forth.
