In this posture, the student will place their upper body in between the legs and the feet. This enables the legs to relax and the spine to stay straight while doing this pose.
Now, there is no difficult part with the Ardha Padmasana. It will be easier for the student if they lie down on their stomach and raise their legs up in the air. When the student bends down, he or she needs to support their weight evenly from both of their feet. Make sure that your torso is in a straight line with your legs.
As you lay on your stomach, gently raise your torso until your legs are about 10 inches above the floor. You should sit up as high as you can and make sure that your eyes are on the ceiling. This pose is extremely useful for improving back posture.
As you get into a forward bending position, you should make sure that your hands are on the floor and that your arms are relaxed. You can practice this position by lifting the torso from a lying position, tilting your head and shoulders downward and gently stretching your legs until they are almost parallel to the floor. If you want to practice it by bending your upper body down slightly, you should make sure that your legs are completely straight and that your torso is in a straight line with your legs. Remember to let your eyes are level with the ceiling.
When performing this special type of position, you should keep your knees together and bend your knees slightly. As you continue to follow the below mentioned instructions, you will surely feel the benefits of the Ardha Padmasana. You will notice that your physical and mental stress will come down and that you will have the flexibility in your spine and lower back that you have never experienced before.
You will also notice that your physical stress will gradually disappear. If you practice this posture regularly, you will find that you do not need any medications for your back pain anymore. It is well worth the effort that you put into doing this pose regularly, because it is one of the easiest, if not the easiest poses for the treatment of muscular tension in the back.
