The Following Instructions Help You Get the Hang of this Posture
Оглавление1.Sit on the floor with your legs straight out in front of you and keep them at a distance of 1 to 1.5 feet. Put your arms on the floor beside your hips, with your palms down and fingers pointing forward. Shake your legs up and down a few times to get the kinks out.
2.Likewise put the left foot in between right thigh and knee from below the knee. Neck and back should be straight. If this step is difficult, don’t use this posture.
3.Bend your right knee toward you, and take hold of your right foot with both hands.
4.Grip the front of your ankle with your right hand and the ball of your big toe with your left hand; slide the little-toe side of your foot between your left thigh and calf until only your big toe is visible, and wiggle the big-toe side of your left foot up between the right thigh and calf, if you can.
5.Rest your hands on your knees, with your arms relaxed, join thumb and index finger as in Yogamudra. The sight should be focused on the tip of the nose.
6.Stretch your spine by stretching your back in an upward motion, balance your head over your torso, and look straight ahead.
7.Start doing this for 5 minutes and slowly increase it to 3 hours.
8.In the classic posture, the chin rests on the chest with the arms straight down and palms open in Jnana Mudra (Wisdom Seal) at the knees. The bottom left foot is pulled up and wedged between the right calf and the thigh.
9.Jnana Mudra is one of several arm positions used in Yoga. To do this Mudra, bring the tip of your index finger to the tip of your thumb to form a circle; extend the three remaining fingers, keeping them close together. This hand gesture makes a good circuit, sealing off the life energy (Prana) in your body.
