“Doctors Said Don't Sit Cross-Legged” — She Can Again in 3 Weeks
Her doctors had told her to forget ever sitting cross-legged. Fifteen to twenty days of guided online yoga later, she's doing it — comfortably.
The patient's own voice — captions on screen in the video.
What she shared
Because of a knee problem, this member could never sit on her heels or sit cross-legged — her doctors had told her plainly to forget about it.
Through steady practice in Dr. Gaganpreet's online classes, she slowly built the confidence to try. To her amazement, she managed it — and sat comfortably.
She's clear-eyed that the journey is long and needs patience, but she already felt significant improvement in just 15 to 20 days. (She even asked the doctor to start a 5 PM batch so she's never late for class.)
“ਮੈਂ ਕਦੀ ਇਮੈਜਿਨ ਵੀ ਨਹੀਂ ਕੀਤਾ ਸੀ ਕਿ ਮੈਂ ਇਸ ਤਰ੍ਹਾਂ ਪੈਰਾਂ ਭਰ ਬੈਠ ਸਕੂੰਗੀ, ਕਿਉਂਕਿ ਮੇਰੇ ਗੋਡੇ ਵਿੱਚ ਪ੍ਰੋਬਲਮ ਹੈ।”
— I never even imagined I'd be able to sit on my heels like this, because I have a problem in my knee.
