Hi All,

I have been struggling with this pose for a while and still don’t get why it is so difficult for me to keep my chin tucked it. It feels like a lot of work when I am lying down trying to relax. Naturally, my eyes will want to stare at the the ceilling. I figure there most be something going on (fixable hopefully)…

Please let me know your thoughts on this.

Thank you!!

Liliana

Hi Liliana

Oh, don’t worry! Try this instead. Lengthen your neck a little on the floor and just drop your eyes a little. The chin is not so much tucked as it is ‘dropped’ a bit to increase the length at the back of the neck.

Maybe a change in approach will make it seem easier to ‘get’ in your body

Namaste
Gabrielle 🙂
