STUDY OF OWN PREFERENCE

C ROSS-L E G G E D

In cross-legged position, shanks are bend towards the body with one or both ankles touching the floor. Knees are pointed outwards.

While the feet are put under thighs which is especially comfortable in winter to reduce the contact area of the feet with cold air. It also reduces the path for blood circulation, so that blood supply to the brain and the upper body would increase. I will be less likely to get tired.
