# Realigning your avatar in VR

If the view through your VR headset doesn't align with your avatar's body, or your avatar has an awkward posture, you may need to realign your avatar. This is most likely to occur when you change between sitting and standing in the real world.

* Raise and rotate your left hand as if to look at a wrist watch, and then select the realign icon (<img src="/files/hE9ANRwM8NlLoKZcZL0e" alt="" data-size="line">).

If this option doesn't solve the issue with your avatar, you may need to change your tracking mode to **Seated Mode (Simulated Standing)**. For more information, see [VR tracking modes](/engage/avatars/seated-and-standing-vr-modes.md).

You can also reset the orientation of your avatar to a more comfortable position. For example, if the orientation of your real-world chair doesn't match the orientation of the chair that your avatar is sat in. To reset your orientation, open your menu or tablet, select the cog icon on the side menu, select **VR Options**, and then select **Recenter Position**.
