Your body isn’t symmetric.
For those wondering, you won’t always be equally flexible on both sides of your body. A year ago, I pulled the tendon connecting your glute to the sit bone, aka, yoga butt.
I put off yoga for three months to heal (ok, real talk, I was depressed about life and the injury). Been working back since Feb 2025. Really solid for the last few months. Pigeon pose, right leg folded, I’m at my elbows for support (my knees only allow for a 45 angle, not everyone can do 90 degrees!) .
My left leg bent? I can nestle into my arms for a nap. Do I wish my other side was the same? Sure. But I’m gonna let my body heal on its time. And really, my right leg is doing great except for pigeon. I’ll give her credit.
