Just to get it out of the way: #HocusPocusLotus2 with #NoLotus -- Forearm balancing isn't the big deal here. The problem is trying to bring the hands to my chin and balance on my elbows. Really. Somehow, just lifting the hands off the ground is #StupidDifficult and even though I lifted one, I lost it on the second side. It's important to do this kind of thing with a #GoodSpotter -- my boy here was #SOLID

Man, that sunset sky sure was nice tonight, lighting up the undersides of the clouds. So, this is my #NoLotus #mayurasana or #peacock . Sort of a drag cause I'd be able to hold this all day with my legs in lotus. The knees say no. I was going to try a different leg position, but then I changed my mind midway. Y'know, I read this yoga book by this wacky French dude, and he was saying that the Hatha Yoga Pradipika (which I won't pretend to have read) recommended this pose for the relief of intestinal gas. IT WORKS (though I do my videos without sound, so you'll just have to trust me). Kind of what you might expect with your elbows jammed into your gut and your butt up in the air. I think the book also recommended some sort of bamboo apparatus. And ghee... #FunFacts #HocusPocusLotus2

This was my roughest approximation of #ardhabaddhagorakshasana -- which is, legs in #lotus while you're standing on your knees, one arm wrapped from behind to grab the big toe on the opposite side and the other hand reaching forward in some mudra or other. #NoLotus for me, but I thought I'd try balancing on the knees, feet behind my legs in a sort of #ReverseLotus . To compensate for the #LackOfLotus I was gonna be cute & balance it while holding the toes of both feet. A lot of #Teetering , not much balancing... #HocusPocusLotus2
