SAVASANA

 Apanasana  (Knees to chest pose) 

A deceptively easy pose that may have many therapeutic benefits, especially for the back.

 

Matsyasana (Fish Pose)
Unlike many of the poses that mimic the creatures they’re named after, Fish Pose doesn’t actually look like a fish. Instead, it’s said that if you perform this pose in water, you will be able to float like a fish.

Supta Baddha Konasana (Reclining Bound Angle Pose)
A classic restorative posture, Reclining Bound Angle Pose can be modified to meet any level of resistance in the hips and groins.

Supta Padangusthasana (Reclining Big Toe Held by Hand Pose)
Supta Padangusthasana provides relief from backache and stretches the hips, hamstrings, and calves.

Supta Virasana (Reclining Hero or Heroine Pose)
Reclining Hero or Heroine Pose intensifies the stretch in the thighs and ankles of its upright version. It also creates new stretches in the front groins, the psoas muscles, and the deep hip flexors.

Viparita Karani  (Inverted resting pose, or Inverted Lake Pose)
Said to reverse the normal downward flow of a precious subtle fluid called amrita (immortal) or soma (extract) in the Hatha Yoga Pradipika, modern yogis agree that Viparita Karani may have the power to cure whatever ails you.

Savasana (Corpse Pose)
Savasana is a pose of total relaxation—making it one of the most challenging asanas.
