Poor posture from prolonged sitting is silently eroding our skeletal health, leading to weakened backs and sluggish digestion. Enter Simple Dhanurasana – the effortless bow pose that’s revolutionizing wellness routines for beginners and pros alike.
Promoted by the AYUSH Ministry, this pose strengthens the spine, enhances flexibility, and stimulates abdominal organs for superior digestive function. It combats stress, regulates hormones, and corrects postural imbalances, turning rounded shoulders into confident posture.
Benefits extend to mental clarity as it harmonizes endocrine glands, fostering hormonal balance and inner peace. Experts advocate daily sessions to unlock sustained energy and resilience.
Getting started is straightforward: Prone on the floor, palms by sides, bend knees, and secure ankles with hands. Inhale to elevate head, chest, and legs, creating a bow-like curve with tension in the back. Maintain for comfortable seconds, exhale to lower. Repeat mindfully.
Safety first – avoid if pregnant, hypertensive, or recovering from surgery/hernia. Neck or back pain sufferers need expert guidance. Gradually increase hold times for progressive gains in strength and serenity.
