Bound Hand Sun Salutation

Sanskrit = Baddha Hasta Surya Namaskara

This is called Bound Hand Sun Salutation because of the 2 interlocked arm positions. Be gentle if you have a shoulder injury.


This sequence is shown as a complete flow. It may be better to take a few breaths in each pose and take more time during the transitions.

 

Modify anything that causes you pain. Just because its shown doesn't mean it has some kind of miraculous health benefits! When yoga is done aggressively it will destroy you. Therefore be light and smooth. The sacred rule of healing is do no harm.
