Half lotus
Take a simple crossed leg position. Then leave one leg bent and resting on the ground, and put the other foot on top of the opposite thigh with its sole facing upward and heel as close to the abdomen as possible. Again, your body position is straight and your arms rest on your thighs or laps.
- In Sanskrit it is called Ardha Padmasana - "Half lotus pose". It is a simplified version of "Lotus pose", yet it is quite stable. Some teachers state this position is no less powerful than the "true lotus".
