International Yoga Day 21st June 2017

Shavasana manager for stress management

SHAVASANA; (Corpse pose)

Method: Lie down on your back. Keep the legs straight on the floor, with both the feet apart as shoulder width. Toes should be turned outward as far as possible. Let the fingers curl up slightly. The Head and the Spine should be in a straight line. Relax the whole body and stop all physical movement. Close your eyes gently. Now mentally, watch your Breathing and allow it to become rhythmic and relaxed. Duration should be minimum 5 minutes.

BENEFITS/ EFECTS: This asana relaxes the whole Psycho-physiological system. This asana is very good for stress management in the body, reducing the Body’s energy loss, lowering the respiration and pulse rule, and resting the whole system. This asana is also known as mritasana. This posture brings a deep, meditative state of rest, which may help in the repair of tissues and cells, and in releasing stress. It also gives time for the yoga workout to sink in at a deeper level.

This posture leaves you in a state of rejuvenation. It is the perfect way to end a yoga session, particularly if it has been a fast-paced one.

It helps reduce blood pressure, anxiety, and insomnia.

This is an excellent way to ground the body and reduce the Vata dosha(imbalance of the air element) in the body.
