Bhujangasana

The Cobra pose or Bhujangasana is a basic Hatha yoga pose, and as such, is very often practiced either on its own, or as part of the Sun Salutations.

BENEFITS

If you are suffering from rounded shoulders or stiff upper back and neck, Cobra pose can help relieve your upper body stiffness. The pose strengthens the entire shoulder area and upper back. It also creates more flexibility into the lower back, massages the digestive organs and relieves menstrual pain.This pose not only opens the physical body, but also provides a gentle opening for the heart as well. We open up our chest, become a bit more vulnerable, and practice being open in the world.
