All of us will love to get a flexible body. Here are few yoga poses which will help you enjoy the same:
Mountain pose or “Tadasana”: Start off your Yoga session with this basic and easy Yoga pose. Stand tall with your feet together. Lift your heels and let your big toes touch the ground only. Your hands should be in a relaxing position at your side and the fingers should be together. This will help stretch your legs and hands to a great extent.
Child pose or “Balasana”: This pose is also known as the resting pose. It will help you in relaxing your whole body and will also work to reduce the fat accumulated in and around your stomach and thighs. Place your knees and tops of your feet on the floor with your feet together and touching the ground. Rest your belly and your chest between the legs. Also, place your head on the floor and stretch your arms out in front of you.
Downward-Facing Dog or “Adho Mukha Svanasana”: This is an excellent pose for stretching your whole body. This pose can be initially tough for the beginners but it can be made easier by increasing the distance between your feet. Hinge forward at the waist with your feet hip-width apart. Press your arms flat into the ground and your hips should be in the air. To get the right posture, your hands should be shoulder width apart. Apart from this, your arms, shoulders and back should be in a straight line. You will be surprised to note that you can take a break by resting in child's pose and then go back to the downward facing dog position.
Chair Pose or “Utkatasana”: This is considered to be a symmetrical pose. In this pose, both sides of the body will be moving in and out of the pose at the same time. The best part is that it will heat you up and strengthen the legs. To be correct with this pose, you should stand with your feet together or your hip width apart. Bend your knees (as if you are sitting on a chair) and raise the arms up alongside your ears.
Tree Pose or “Vrksasana”: This is actually a one legged balancing pose. This pose is known to increase confidence and concentration levels. It also eases out stress levels. You will have to stand on one leg and bring your other foot up to as high as your thigh depending upon the flexibility of your body. If you have a good balance, then you can lift your arms into the air so that you create "branches" for your tree.
Try incorporating these Yoga poses in your regular lives and lead a healthy life. You can practice these yoga poses at any time of the day but morning will always be the preferable time.
