When we practice some yoga postures, we always feel that we have not practiced them well. There is no need to worry at this time. Novices may have some difficulties at the beginning. At this time, we can buy some yoga bricks and other yoga aids to practice together. So today we will introduce the most comprehensive guide to using yoga bricks. Let’s go to the fitness equipment and have a look!

Bridge change

1. Place the yoga block next to you and lie on your back on the yoga mat. Bend your knees, place your legs hip-width apart, and place your feet on the floor.

2. Take a few deep breaths, place the soles of your feet and upper arms close to the yoga mat, raise your hips and slowly enter the bridge pose. Remember to start at the lowest height you can handle. Use the yoga block as a support for the posture and place it flat on the sacrum, which is the triangular bone at the bottom of the spine.

3. If you feel that the height of yoga is acceptable and comfortable, please focus your center of strength on the buttocks placed on the yoga bricks. If you feel that the height can be increased, you can change the placement of the yoga to increase the height.

4. Yoga blocks can help you maintain the bridge pose, and then we can start to make some changes. Bend your right knee and raise it toward your chest, holding your hands on your right leg. Slowly extend your left leg in front of you, keeping your heel in contact with the floor. While pushing the heel of your left leg forward, gently hold your right leg close to your chest and hold for 5-10 breaths. Done, switch sides.

5. After completing the posture, place both feet on the mat, lift your buttocks to take out the yoga block, and then slowly move your buttocks downward until you are lying flat on the yoga mat.

Upward facing dog

1. Place two yoga bricks lengthwise on the left and right sides of the mat.Make sure the yoga block is on the mat to avoid slipping. Prepare to lie prone, your hands should be placed on the yoga blocks on both sides, hands under your shoulders, legs shoulder-width apart, and toes touching the mat.

2. Exhale, raise your head and chest, slowly straighten your arms, open your shoulders, and use the power of your hands to push the ground to extend your body upward. Note that your lumbar spine is extending rather than folding.

3. Hold for 3-5 breaths, place your knees on the floor, and rest in child's pose.

Crescent Lunge

1. Start in standing or downward dog pose. Inhale, place the yoga block lengthwise on your right side, push your right knee forward, walk your right foot up, and bend your right knee without exceeding the front of your right foot to ensure that your heel and ankle are well supported.

2. Point the toes of your left foot to the ground, place your knees on the mat, and push your hips forward. Bend your upper body forward, place your abdomen close to your right front leg, and place your hands on the ground. Keeping your back straight, extend forward and exhale.

3. Inhale, stretch your body upwards, and place your hands on your hips. Press your left foot firmly on the ground, straighten your right foot and lean forward, keeping your hips straight. Hold for 5-10 breaths.

4. Place your hands on the mats on both sides of the yoga block, with your arms as support, slowly lower your right leg from the yoga block, place it back next to your left foot, and rest in child's pose.
