J for "Janu Sirsasana"

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.

 

 

Janu Sirsasana (Head to knee forward bend) stretches the spine, shoulders, hamstrings and groins. While it stimulates the liver and kidneys, it improves digestion and relieve symptoms of menopause in women. It relieves anxiety, fatigue and cures blood pressure, insomnia and sinusitis.
