Self Adjustment for Side Angle Pose. The purpose of this adjustment is to target an activation of your outer hip muscles (abductor group). Providing the kinesthetic touch of the hand on the knee is helpful for two reasons.
1. Most of us have more sensational awareness in our hands, so you can use your hand to gauge how much your abductors are activating - your hand will be able to feel the pressure. Hopefully you will also feel your outer hip muscles activating as well but that may not be the case at first.
2. The resistance of the hand helps to strengthen the abductors. It also provides a stopping point so you don’t overly abduct.
