## Caption

Much of modern day #asana feeds into this ableist notion of how our #yogapractice should look while also preaching this idea that we’re only doing “something” when we are pushing our bodies past our own limits. To that, I say FUCK THAT MESS lol. THIS is yoga too. 
🖕🏽
Sometimes the most seemingly simple stuff is the most beneficial for our bodies, yet we’re always looking outwards for that validation instead of inquiring for ourselves - how am I feeling in this fancy pose? What will this achieve? Does my body really want to get into this pretzel shape? Am I going to be a better person for this? The answers to these questions will definitely get you thinking a little bit about your own attitude towards practice and most importantly yourself. 
🧘🏽‍♀️
As you’re pondering this stuff while most likely sitting on your ass somewhere though, try these seated #SuryaNamaskars which are quite literally for EVERY BODY. 
Pointers:
👉🏽 I find it easiest to use a seat that has a steady edge. It can be done on a sofa, too!
👉🏽 If you need some assistance in hip flexion (meaning your foot can’t get to the edge of your seat when you lift your leg up) place a lower table or stool in front of your seat to place your foot there. This will be the case for many elderly people, so it’s best to get as many as props and support around to assist!
👉🏽 I’ve cued the breath in this one - use it!
