How Dhanur Asana solves diabetes, respiration problems-and keeps apart hypertention



Dhanur asana is also known as the bow posture. The Sanskrit word ‘dhanur’ means bow and arrow, like an archer stringing a bow the body mimics the shape of a bow with its stretched back ready to shoot an arrow. Dhanur asana helps the abdominal muscles and spine receive sufficient amount of blood supply by stretching and putting pressure on the navel areas.  It also helps to improve one’s digestive system as well as help strengthen the back. Dhanur asana tones back muscles and maintains the elasticity of spine. Stretching the abdominal viscera enables all organs e.g. liver, spleen, intestines and pancreas to remain in good health.  The asana aids good blood circulation within and around the body which further enhances stamina and strength of the body while helping to keep obesity under control. Problems of hypertension, diabetes, reproductive, heart and respiration also resolve themselves.

While inhaling, raise the legs by pulling the ankles up and lifting the chest from the ground.

Hold the breath.

The body should look like the bow.

The weight of the body must be remained on the navel areas.

Bend your head backward and pull the legs toward the head and make a bow.

Hold the asana as you can while comfortably hold the breath.

Exhale slowly and bringing the knees to the floor and leave the legs and relax for a while in shav-asana and repeat it three times.
