I tore my meniscus at age 48 in the Lotus pose. These people assume a high level of flexibility. People in my class could fold their legs into Lotus while in Headstands! I had never been able to do the Lotus, but was in a intensive training course and could finally do the pose. I absolutely LOVED it. I was doing it regularly for the better part of a year. But it was always a struggle to get into the pose, I had to use my arms to bring me feet into position. So one night, I had my left leg in half Lotus and was using my arms to bring the right leg over into full Lotus when...KRrrrrrrkkkk! Something popped in my left (bent) knee. It didn't really hurt, but when I straightened the leg I could feel bone rubbing on bone. Long story short, I had surgery 2 weeks later for 2 'bucket handle' meniscus tears. It's been 9.5 years and I don't have much trouble with it, but I definitely don't want to risk further injury by trying it again. So I practice Aparigraha and just let it go. So the bottom line is, this pose is not considered a higher-level pose for nothing. I would advise you to use extreme caution. And don't start doing it at 48 either:).

Thanks, well put... I feel like if I continue down this road that’s what’s going to happen. Gonna slow my roll a bit!!!

[@thedevinefeminine]

Yeah I have meniscus injury both knees. MCL tears in my left knee. ACL tears in my right. I've had knee surgery and slowly working upto lotus. Its mainly hard on my hips though. Knees feel ok

[@TheCinnamondemon]

Oh shoot I’m so sorry, thanks for sharing this

[@oliveostrich903]

I’m 54 and working on it. So glad I read your comment. So sorry that happened to you. Thanks for the heads up. Feeling wary now.

[@michaelfforte]

The teacher explains at the beginning the most critical areas where flexibility is needed for this pose. Ankle, knee, and hip flexibility. The three 'warm up' exercises are VERY important to practice consistently. I am a westerner and 71 years old. This video is extremely helpful and I anticipate many months of practice. Don't rush it!

[@YogaForCureVideos]

Thank you so much 🙏😊

[@simsloverds6001]

I was able to do it half when I watched this video for the first time. I did it on the second day with these practices. Thank you for your help!

[@peterlevitt2750]

i am 75, have been sitting in meditation half lotus regularly for 40 years. decided as a present to myself (I expect it will be) why not sit in full lotus? so, I looked up videos and found this. It makes sense to me and was well explained. thank you. I will take this approach but in the spirit of the Japanese haiku poet, Issa, who wrote: Oh, snail. Climb Mt. Fuji. But, slowly. Slowly.

[@letteringcruise]

The haiku 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻

[@ladysiva]

Thank you so very much. I used to do Padmasana a lot but with lack of practice, it’s very painful these days. Your warming up steps and the strengthening steps before the actual pose made it easy. I’ll follow the steps and strengthening postures and hopefully I can do Padmasana again

Thank you for this beautiful explanation & teaching!🥰 I was finally able to settle into my first lotus pose & I am so excited to continue this never-ending journey✨🙏🌼🌞🌸Blessings & gratitude!🔥

[@lalithanagarajan1055]

I commented on this video before one year. Though I wanted to do, somewhat I had been postponing. Now for the past 10 days I am doing these preparatory asanas and padmasana regularly. On the second day itself I was able to to bring my second leg over the first. Then from fifth day, I am able to stay in padmasana for full five minutes. Today I stayed in Padmasana for 15 minutes and did Pranayam in it. Still I cannot do padmasana without doing preparatory asanas. I think in a month I would be able to do so. Thank you so much for this video. I'm seriously considering to resume yoga again. Your videos are a good inspiration. God bless you.

[@lindajoy23]

I haven't practised yoga for sometime and I used to struggle with this pose so much that I hated doing it. It was never explained to me as well as you have done so in this tutorial. You have made me want to practise again, thank you so much.

Thank you so much for the comment here... food is something which you need to eat In most comfort posture as your body is going to absorb it completely. So it’s said that most best posture to have food is sukhasana. When you have the best posture to have food then I don’t think we need any other asana.
