Yoga for Back Pain (Part11) Nasa-sparsasana

Nasa-sparsasana

Nasa = nose
sparsha = touch
Asana = posture

As is quite understandable from the name, the idea is to touch the nose with one's toes.

This is an excellent Asana for treating the back pain.



Breathing: 1) breathe in while pulling the leg to the nose 2) breathe normally slow and deep as you hold the posture 3) Breathe out as you release the leg to its earlier position.
