Yoga posture - Savasana

Translation: Corpse Pose

This yoga posture is usually performed at the end of practice. It balances the body in many ways.

Lie down on the mat with the hands down and a little out from the hips. Have the palms facing up.


Relax breathing and make it easy and silent. Rest after the exhalations to calm the heart.
