re: Advice for hip flexibility with yoga?

I tried pigeon pose but my instructor worried about me tearing something. I use a blanket with it but it's hard to get my hips aligned correctly.

have to find something to put under the hip you're stretching ... doubt there's a better pose out there for hips ... assuming you have a thorough warmup and breathe ... push it to the edge ...

edit: saw your second post ... nmd ... still, make sure whatever you're using is high enough to allow you to maintain the pose for a long time so you can adjust and go deeper every 2 minutes or so ...
