Body Posture Improvement
Hero Pose (Virasana)
This is a classic seated yoga posture that works on the thighs, ankles, knees, and glutes. It is also beneficial for those suffering from gout or flat feet.
Head-to-Knee Forward Bend (Janu Sirsasana)
This asana is great for the digestive system. It is highly recommended to those suffering from an enlarged prostate gland. People with high BP, sinus, insomnia, menstrual disorders, or chronic fatigue syndrome, should find benefits in practicing this asana regularly.
Half Lord of the Fishes Pose (Ardha Matsyendrasana)
The biggest benefit from practicing this asana is enhanced flexibility and mobility. It is one of the best poses for strengthening the spine and its nerve extensions.
It activates the abdominal organs, boosting the digestive system and increasing the lung capacity. The functions of the urinary and reproductive system are enhanced as well.
Handstand (Adho Mukha Vrksasana)
Handstand strengthens the wrists, shoulders, arms, and chest. It works on the core muscles and increases spinal flexibility. This inversion allows the blood circulation to flow toward the brain, increasing heart rate which helps regulate the cardiovascular activity.
