Dwipada Supta Pawanmuktasana (Lying leg hug)
Lie on your back. Inhale. Fold both legs at the knee. Exhale. Hug the knees as tightly as you can to the abdomen. Ensure hips do not rise off the floor. Hold this pose for as long as you can, breathing normally. Release legs back to starting position. Repeat five times.
Benefits: This pose, like the previous one is therapeutic. Pawanmuktasana also means wind or energy release. Apart from removing acidity from the body, this pose also allows it to resume normal flow of energy by undoing joint stiffness. All joints are powered in this simple but most effective pose. It also relieves most spinal problems and hikes metabolism, aiding in digestion and weight loss.
