Description:yoga posses

The word ‘poses’ in Sanskrit is known as ‘asanas’ and poses are the heart of yoga practise. Each pose has its own mental and physical benefits. For beginners its good to start with simple poses. You will feel comfortable with all the poses, as practise level increases. Remember, if you feel comfortable in a pose hold for longer and if you feel uncomfortable come out of the pose immediately. Types of Yoga asanas are:

Seated Poses—Helpful to practise breathing exercise and meditation. Helps to get better posture and open your hips.

Standing Poses—Useful for strengthening legs and developing sense of balance.

Counter poses—Spine stretches in the opposite direction of the previous pose. It takes back spine to a neutral position.

Back Bends—the most challenging pose that helps to strengthen the back by keeping the spine strong and flexible.

Forward Bends—stretches the entire backbody, especially hamstrings. It releases tension and keeps the spine strong.

Balancing Poses—Develops balance of your body and mind and also improves the ability to remain grounded in a position.

There are many other yoga poses like inversions—improves blood circulation, twists—improves functioning of internal organs, relaxation poses—relaxing the body at the end of each yoga, etc.
