When we add a cushion or support under the upper body, this makes the pose more restorative, so you can spend more time in the pose without causing any strain. Restorative Child’s Pose is a perfect gentle stretch to add in at the end of the day, especially when arthritis pain is keeping you up at night. For this pose you’ll need a bolster or large pillow.

Instructions

Sit on your heels with the tops of your feet flat against the earth. Spread your knees outwards to your level of comfort.

Drape your body over your thighs, and stretch your arms forward. This would be traditional Child’s Pose.

To make this pose restorative, place a bolster, large pillow, blocks, or stack of blankets beneath your torso to support your body.

You can keep your arms stretched forward, or allow them to rest by your side, whichever is most comfortable. Adjust the width of your knees to your desired stretch.

Relax in this pose as long as is needed. Six minutes or more would be appropriate.
