SUKHASANA


Sit erect with your legs stretched out, the palms resting on the thighs.

Bend the right leg and the knee, pressing the heels into the hip joint, slightly intersecting the left toes into the bend of right foot.

Place the palms on the knees and hold the pose comfortably for a few minutes.

Reverse the process gradually to come out of the asana.

ADVANTAGES:

The pose has the same effect as the Padmasana. It frees the joints and tendons. There is rushing of the arterial blood to the pelvic region. It claims the mind and soothes the nerves in general. Both Padmasana and  Sukhasana help the yogi in meditation and concentration.
