True beauty radiates from within, not just from a flawless exterior. A healthy body, free from ailments and fueled by regular yoga and balanced nutrition, reflects a natural glow on your face. Experts at the Morarji Desai National Institute of Yoga emphasize that yoga poses hold the key to resolving many physical issues. Among them, Sarvangasana stands out, often hailed as the ‘Mother of All Asanas’ for its comprehensive benefits to vital organs.
This pose, literally meaning ‘pose for all limbs,’ targets the entire body. Regular practice balances hormones, enhances digestion, and melts away stress. Perform it in the morning on an empty stomach or evenings for optimal results.
To master Sarvangasana, lie flat on your back. Slowly lift your legs upward, supporting your lower back with your hands. Straighten your body fully, tucking your chin to your chest. The weight rests on your shoulders, arms, and neck, strengthening these muscles over time.
The Ministry of AYUSH highlights its role in activating thyroid and parathyroid glands, boosting metabolism. It improves blood circulation, aids digestion, increases spinal flexibility, sharpens focus, and combats anxiety. For women, it’s a boon during irregular periods, enhancing immunity, glowing skin, and alleviating depression. Heart health also benefits from consistent practice.
While transformative, those with severe illnesses or post-surgery should consult a yoga expert before attempting. Embrace Sarvangasana to unlock a healthier, more vibrant you.
