How to do Siddhasana (Accomplished Pose)
Siddhasana, also known as the Accomplished Pose, is a classic meditative yoga posture that improves focus, enhances flexibility, and supports deep breathing. It is widely practiced for meditation, pranayama, and concentration due to its grounding and calming effects on the mind and body.
