PADMASANA

Sit erect and bend the right leg.

Then slowly bring the right foot over the right thigh with the sole turned almost upwards.

Press the heel on the pubic bone.

Let the left heel touch the right heel.

Place the left palm facing upwards on the right palm. You can also place hands facing upwards on the knees.

Keep the arms straight from the shoulders to the hands.

Bend the head and press on the chest.

Fix the eyes on the nose tip and contract the anus.
The spine is kept erect.

ADVANTAGES:

This asana frees our joints and tendons. There is rushing of the arterial blood to the pelvic region. It claims the mind and soothes the nerves in general. It helps the yogi in meditation and concentration.
