Description If you are suffering from frequent constipation
and infertility problems just opt for 'Parivrtta
Parsvakonasana'. Firstly, let us consider how to do this asana and later move on
with 'Utthita
Parsvakonasana', which is another restorative yoga pose.
How to:
For 'Parivrtta Parsvakonasana' position yourself as in Tadasana. Then exhale and lightly jump or step your feet apart to three to four feet. Now turn your right foot out towards right at ninety degrees and proceed to turn your left-most foot towards right. Continue to align your right heel in accordance with your left heel. Then, maintain your thighs firm and turn the right thigh outwards such that the central portion of the kneecap is aligned with central portion of right ankle.
Now exhale and move your torso towards the right till you are facing directly outwards over right leg. At the same time, lift up your left heel from the ground and turn on ball of foot till inner left foot becomes parallel to the ground. Proceed to exhale again, and bend your right knee. If you can, bring your right-thigh in such a manner it is parallel to the ground. Maintain your left-leg actively by pushing your thigh towards ceiling along with lengthening strongly through left heel. During this time, stand firm by raising your left thigh while pressing your tailbone towards pubis.
Exhale once again and turn towards the right. Next, lean chest downwards by placing your left arm on floor inside the right foot. Now, place your right hand's thumb on right hip and press the thighbone towards the ground. Make your shoulder blades firm and lean your chest backwards slightly far from the inner thigh. Remain in this position for few breaths.
If this pose seems challenging, continue to stay for recommended time. Move on further by bending your left elbow and bringing it towards outer most part of the right knee. Stand with your elbow and knee firm against one another. If possible, keep your left-elbow straight and reach your hand towards the floor. Now place your right-hand on hip and stretch it over than back of your right ear with your palm facing the ground. Now turn your head towards the right arm. Finally, with each twist, lengthen and soften your belly while extending your spine with each inhalation. Next, increase twists as and how you give out air.
Remain in this pose for thirty seconds to a minute. Then, take a deep breath to rise up and give out air to release twist. Lastly, reverse feet and do the same asana with the left-side for the same duration. Then, come back to the Tadasana position.
