mins for yourself and after few months you will notice the difference

- Slowly bend forward towards your legs and try to touch your head to the knees and toes with your hands. Initially try to sit in this position for atleast 20 seconds and do 15 repetitions. While bending forward try to inhale and exhale when you come up. Don't try to stretch yourself, bend till you can easily.This will reduce your accumulated lower abdominal fat and also improve your blood circulation.
Baddhakonasana (Butterfly Pose)
- Sit straight and position your legs in order that the soles of your feet are touching one another by bending your knees. Hold the feet as near your body as possible, or try to minimize the distance between heel and your body.
- Now move your knees up and down while holding your feet and allow your knee to touch the ground. If you are not able to touch your knees to the ground during the process, in that case only move your knee up and down and just push down your knees as much you can.
This asana is
important and essential for female as it direct effect will be on
your pelvic region. It also stimulate your reproductive and digestive
organs. It will help you to increase your legs flexibility and thus
reduces pain. It is very useful for pregnant women.
Savasana
- Lying on the back, the arms and keep your legs apart, almost at about 45 degrees.
- Keep your eyes closed, loosen your whole body and try to relax by taking deep breath.This seems to be very easy asana but it is the most important part of yoga practice. You can easily take the position but it is very difficult to do relaxation. You cant say “ ok now i will relax”. While taking deep breath hundreds of thoughts must be going on in your mind but you have to control those thoughts and have to relax, then only you be stress free.

These are some easy and less time consuming yoga asana which you can perform at home without any instructor. Above all there is one masterstroke of yoga widely known as "Surya Namaskar". 12 steps all together count as one surya namaskar. Initially start with minimum 3 repetitions and then gradually you can increase the number of repetitions. One thing i am sure that yoga undoubtedly change your life. Make a habit and feel the difference.
