I can sit crosslegged for ages with a block; when I started doing yoga I couldn't manage it at all without a block & getting hold of one transformed the experience for me. I can actually sit crosslegged without a block for a bit now but it's much more comfortable with.

Finding the concept of jumping to the top of the mat just impossible to get my head around. Also, need to find a sensible space to do it now I'm home.
