Yoga modifications

There are many poses I probably wouldn't have been able to do 30 years ago. The liberating thing about starting in my 50s is that I accept my body and its limitations. I accept that I may not see instant progress or that some days I seem to have LESS balance or flexibility than the day before.
These are some modifications I incorporate regularly:
Cobra pose instead of Upward Facing Dog
Knee down in side-plank
Use of a yoga block for Half-moon pose
Toe touch to the floor for balance poses such as Tree pose
Simply feeling good in my effort in twisting poses or stacking poses such as Crow pose
