D for "Dhanurasana"

This blog post is written as part of A to Z Challenge. This involves the challenge of a blog post on a topic starting with an alphabet on each day through the entire month of April excluding Sundays starting from A to Z. My simple posts will be themed after Yoga postures with my own creations as images.

Dhanurasana (Bow pose) stretches the chest, shoulder, arms and quadriceps. While it has the capability of curing rheumatism of the legs, knees and hands, it also activates the intestines and thus curing prolonged constipation and other digestive disorders.
