How to do Shavasana (Corpse Pose)
Shavasana, also known as Corpse Pose, is one of the most important yoga postures for deep relaxation, meditation, and stress relief. This restorative pose helps calm the mind, relax the body, and improve overall mental clarity. Practicing Shavasana regularly enhances concentration, supports emotional balance, and rejuvenates the entire system.
Step-by-Step Practice Guide to Perform Shavasana
- Begin by sitting in Sukhasana (easy cross-legged position).
- Gently extend your legs forward and allow your body to relax as you move into a lying position.
- Slowly lower your upper body onto the floor and let your legs fall open naturally.
- In the final posture, keep your legs relaxed with toes dropping outward. Place both arms comfortably beside the body with palms facing upward.
- Close your eyes and ensure the head and neck are resting naturally on the floor. The head may turn slightly to either side in a relaxed position.
- Breathe in and out slowly for a few minutes, allowing the mind to focus on calm and positive thoughts.
- Shavasana is a restorative relaxation and meditative pose that helps release physical and mental tension.
