Head To Knee Forward Bend Pose | Janu Sirsasana

Head to knee forward bend pose (Janu Sirsasana) instructions, illustration, and mindfulness practice. Learn about preparatory, complementary and follow-up poses, and discover all health benefits. https://www.spotebi.com/exercise-guide/head-to-knee-forward-bend-pose/

HEAD TO KNEE FORWARD BEND POSE INSTRUCTIONS

1. Sit on the floor with your feet together and your legs extended.
2. Bend your right knee and bring the sole of your right foot close to your left thigh.
3. Exhale as you bend at the hips, slowly lower your torso and grab your left foot.
4. Hold the pose for 30 seconds to 1 minute and then switch sides.

MINDFULNESS PRACTICE

Keep your spine long, lower and lengthen your torso until your chest and belly touch the thigh, and feel the stretch in the back of the extended leg. Deepen the stretch as you exhale and, as you inhale, lengthen through the spine.

JANU SIRSASANA BENEFITS

The head to knee forward bend pose stretches the hamstrings, lengthens the spine, strengthens the back muscles and massages the abdominal organs. This pose calms the central nervous system, reduces stress, and relieves anxiety and mild depression.

CONTRAINDICATIONS

Knee, back or hip injury.

PREPARATORY, COMPLEMENTARY AND FOLLOW-UP POSES
