This reclined version of One-Legged King Pigeon Pose is similar to the forward bending variation of the classic pose, but doing the pose in a reclined position rather than upright reduces the stress on the bent knee. To learn more about why Baxter recommends doing the pose this way rather than the classic way, see Friday Q&A: Is Pigeon Pose Safe for Us?
