Parvatasana: Yoga Positions

1 Answer » - Asked by admin - on March 4th, 2007 at 11:01 am - filed under Yoga Asanas

Parvata means a mountain. This asana is also known as ‘Viyogasana’, because it involves a special technique of Yoga. Only healthy persons should practice this asana.

Technique Yoga Positions Parvatasana:

Sit in padmasana. Join the palms of the hands. Stretch the arms vertically up over the head. Some people perform this sitting in the posture of Veerasana. But the Padmasana posture is better than the veerasana one.

Advantages for Yoga Positions Parvatasana:

  1. As both the arms are kept vertically up in this asana, the ‘Prana’ is sublimated.
  2. If Suryabheada Pranayama or Anuloma-Viloma pranayama is practiced for fifteen minutes before performing this (Parvatasana)asana, the lungs, the abdomen and the spine become strong and healthy.
  3. This asana gives sufficient exercise to the muscles of the arms.
