The mechanics of this pose make it quite hard to strain and push, so in order to understand why this posture is so important, stay in it, rest in it and work intelligently within it. Be gentle with your body as, even though this posture feels lovely, going into it can elicit some strong feelings.
* The action of placing one shin upon the other will, for some, be beyond the accommodation of their hips but if the shin does lie almost flat, then trust in your tummy strength and the hip will open up. As you sit there, sit as tall out of your hips as is possible.
* Push your top knee down [in the Assembly position, both knees] and lift your pubic bone between your legs. You will feel the tummy pull in and the knees spread. Do not lean backwards, just roll your hips up and back. Stay here and feel the spread in the legs.
* Keep sucking your tummy in and up until you feel your hips begin to roll forwards. Keep rolling them forwards, up and over your legs, until you find yourself over your legs. Push your bottom down and back, pull your tummy in and up and lift your chest up by using the muscles of your upper back. This will extend your spine and allow you to space within your hips and lower spine.
* Alternative If when you try and place your shin on top of the other, your body prevents your leg from moving or the knee sticks up high in the air, or your ankle and foot feel as though they are going to snap, then move into the Assembly position sitting with simple crossed-legs.
* Advanced If your hips do not feel the desired deep stretch with your shins lying on each other, then pull your knees so that they are inside your ankles and you will find the depth of sensation you have been looking for. Breathe slowly and deeply, emphasizing the exhale to help you let go of the tension in those deep muscles.
