baddha konasana

[Guest guest]

hello group,

 

can someone give me some technical advise on baddha konasana?

it is the one pose in the primary series that is giving me trouble.

for two years my knees have been 6 inches off the ground with little

improvement. in self practise i am stood on and they go down to the

floor but this is very painful and i can't do much in the pose on my

own. at home i try and sit in it to watch tv ect thinking this will

gently open the pose up but it doesn't seem to do so.

are there any good poses to open the hips in this pose, it is strange

as it is the only thing in the primary series that is painful and

that isn't opening up.

many thanks
