Yoga Asanas To Reduce Belly Fat. Padahastasana (Standing Forward Bend)



This forward fold is really good for the heart and relieves issues like anxiety and is good for getting the heart rate slowed down. The abdominals become soft and relaxed, allowing the stomach to do its work, appropriately addressing major or minor abdominal issues.






How To Do


  • Stand in the Tadasana pose, with your hands on either side of the body while your feet rest together, with the heels touching each other.
  • Keep your spine erect.
  • Inhaling deeply, lift your hand upwards.
  • As you exhale, bend forward such that your body is parallel to the floor.
  • Inhale, then exhale, and bend forward completely, with your body falling away from the hips.
  • Try to touch the floor, with palms straight on the floor, and without bending your knees. Beginners can try touching the toes or just the ankles to start with, working your way to the floor.
  • Inhale while coming up into Tadasana. It is good to stay in this asana for slightly longer durations as per individual capabilities and need.

Variations

Padahastasana has variations in terms of holding your toes, placing your hands beneath the balls of your feet, or simply holding your ankles or shins.


Benefits

  • Improves digestion, as your abdominal muscles are toned
  • Strengthens the wrist joints
  • Relieves mental and physical exhaustion

Caution

Before performing Padahastasana, you need to master Uttanasana, which is a less challenging forward-bending pose. Also, people with spinal disc disorders must refrain from performing this pose.
