Your ! family ! is ! too ! cute !!!
I always say that. 😅

Squatting is AMAZING indeed. I have seen some indigenous people, here in South America, hold in squat position as well. They use it to rest when they're tired and I have also read it has many benefits!

I admit it is hard to me. I, somehow, can hold Malasana asana in yoga for the longest period of time but am TERRIBLE at the Cambodian Squat. I always fall. 😅

Props to @sreypov for being the model to the tutorial. 10/10!

Funny you say the thing about South America, I have seen the Caribs and Saramaccan people doing it a bit here in Suriname, but I think the western diet has made that more difficult. Most people in Suriname have a bit of a belly too, something that isn't squatter friendly.

All the indigenous forest cultures in Suriname are trying to get as far away from the Earth as possible by building high dwellings that keep them safe from the creatures of the forest floor. I bet too much squatting in the forest might lead to a surprise from a ground creature one day.
