Head to Knee -Janu Sirsasana

Head to Knee -Janu Sirsasana

STEPS : To begin the Janu Asana, sit with your legs outstretched in the front. Bend your right knee and place the right foot against the inner part of your left thigh. Remember to keep your knee relaxed. Inhale deeply and straighten your left foot by pressing the top of the thigh down. Ensure that your spine is straight while doing this.  Now rotate your upper body a little so that you face the flexed left leg. Fold gently from the hips while exhaling deeply.  Ensure that your spine is elongated, shoulders are relaxed, and the chest is open. Stretch your arms to grab your ankle or foot. Hold this pose for 25–30 seconds. Inhale deeply to come out of the pose.
