Day 3 #IndoindiansYogaChallenge:
VRIKSASANA – Tree pose
Going into the asana:
– Stand straight with feet together, pressing the heels and the front of the feet firmly.
– Bend the right leg at the knee, placing the right foot up at the root of the left straight leg. Right foot toes should point down.
– Press well the right foot into the left thigh and the left thigh back into the right foot – this will help keep the balance.
– Joining the palms in Namaskar in front of the chest, stretch the arms overhead.
Effects of the asana:
– Builds strength in and tones the leg muscles.
– Improves balance as this pose is balancing on one leg at a time.
– Helps in opening the groin area.
Tips & Requirements:
- Wear comfortable lose clothes during the asanas.
- Use a yoga mat or a carpet to perform your asanas. Don’t directly practice on the floor.
- Practice on an empty stomach empty or at least 2-3 hours of gap between meals.
