Ardha Dhanurasana (Half Bow Pose)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Ardha Dhanurasana is derived from Sanskrit words \u201cArdha\u201d<\/strong> means \u201cHalf\u201d<\/strong>, \u201cDhanura\u201d means \u201cBow\u201d<\/strong> and \u201casana\u201d<\/strong> means \u201cpose\u201d<\/strong>. This is another back bending asana, which is less intense than the complete Dhanurasana. In this asana, as the name suggests, you will lift only one leg.<\/p>\n

How To Do It?<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u2981 You have to start the asana, by lying on your stomach.
\n\u2981 Bring your hands forward, and rest the elbows on the mat. The palms will be facing downwards.
\n\u2981 Slowly, you have to lift the shoulders off the mat, and then press both the forearms on the mat.
\n\u2981 Your legs should be stretched out, with the toes pointed outwards. Slowly, bend one of the legs, so that the toes point towards the ceiling.
\n\u2981 With the hands from the same side of the body, try to hold the toes or feet of the bent leg.
\n\u2981 Keep your other leg glued to the floor. Try to kick the leg, which you are holding with the hands.
\n\u2981 This should create a pulling sensation, which can help you to uplift the torso further from the ground.
\n\u2981 You can release the pose once you have maintained it for at least 5 breath counts and relax. Repeat on the other side.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Benefits<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u2981 You can improve your spine flexibility, with the help of this asana. It is a great back-bending pose for all.
\n\u2981 You can stretch the full body, which makes it an excellent workout.
\n\u2981 It is a chest opener as well.
\n\u2981 If you practice this pose on a regular basis, you will be able to improve your balance as well.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Contraindications<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u2981 Pregnant women must not do this pose.
\n\u2981 If you have leg, back, neck, or any sort of shoulder injury, you must refrain from doing the pose.<\/p>\n
