The Child’s Pose is a resting pose that is traditionally practiced in Savasana before the final relaxation pose in a yoga class. As the name suggests, you begin by kneeling, sitting back on your heels, and bringing your arms out in front of you. This pose may be modified by bringing your knees to your chest, or by placing your hands on the floor next to your feet.

A child’s pose is a great exercise for anyone looking to tone their abs by doing basic exercises. This can be done by anyone without the need for a gym. If you just have a workout mat, you are good to go. Even if you don’t have access to a mat, you can give it a try on the floor.

How to Do Child’s Pose

This child pose is practiced by many pros and amateurs who desire to strengthen their abs. It can also be performed by expectant mothers by placing a bolster beneath their torso. Beginners may consider placing a rolled-up blanket between their calves and thighs to help them achieve the pose.

It can be a very calming exercise if done properly. However, many have been doing this easy exercise incorrectly. These are detrimental to their abs rather than beneficial. To execute it perfectly, there are a few steps to follow. Consider them if you’ve been wanting to get your abs toned for a long time.

Step 1

The first step is to get ready for the workout. Begin by drinking plenty of water to hydrate your body. To do this posture, you can use a yoga or fitness mat. As the yoga mat will be in contact with your face and skin, ensure it is clean and hygienic.

Step 2

Sit on your knees and press them together. Fold the thighs so that the body is positioned over them.

Step 3

Put your forehead on the ground and let it rest there. At the same time allow your hands to stretch back in the direction of your feet. Try to stay relaxed throughout the motion.

Step 4

Now closing your eyes, take a deep breath. Every 10 to 20 seconds, exhale and inhale. Allow your tummy to press down on your thighs while doing so. If you find it strenuous, you can ease the posture according to your needs.

Step 5

Keep yourself in that position for as long as you can. Then return to your initial position.

Benefits

This child pose workout can provide several health benefits. Some of them are listed below:

  • Gently stress your thighs.
  • Facilitate the decrease of anxiety and tension.
  • Improves the body’s blood circulation.
  • Gently stresses your spine.
  • Aids in the relaxation of the mind and the restoration of tranquility.
  • Makes it easier to breathe deeply and steadily.
  • Flexes the internal organs.

Muscles Worked

The muscles in the lower back as well as the inner thighs are stretched during this workout. It also flexes the hips’ muscles. The leg muscles are also used while doing this. 

Conclusion

After a stressful day, try this posture to relax your body and mind. This will give you the abs you’ve wanted for a long time, as well as the peace of mind.
