5 wall-support yoga asanas that you can practice daily
'Wall,' these asanas are easy and you can try them anytime! The ancient practice of yoga has no one way to do it. Meaning, there are so many variations, props, and methods that can help you attempt even the toughest of the asanas with ease. Today, let us acquaint you with five poses that you can easily pull off by taking a wall's support.
Viparita karani
This one is an easy, beginner-friendly yoga pose that can help you sleep better. All you have to do is, sit close to a wall and lie back on the floor. Slide your hips as close to the wall as possible and then raise your legs straight. Place your hands beside you, focus on your breathing, and hold this pose for a few minutes.
Ardha Chandrasana
Stand against a wall positioning your left on the wall as though you are kicking it. Bend your torso to the right and extent your right arm to touch the floor, while the left arm goes up in the air forming a straight line. Look at the ceiling and hold this pose for a few deep breaths. Keep your arms and legs stretched throughout.
Prasarita Padottanasana
Stand with your glutes, back, and shoulders against a wall and keep your feet hip-width apart. Keep your heels a little pointed outward and your toes pointing in. Bend forward by hinging at the hips and touching the floor with your hands. You can use yoga blocks to stay stable. As you bend, press your hips and glutes into the wall and hold.
Supta Baddha Konasana
Sit with your legs toward the wall and lie on your back. Swing your legs up and slide your buttocks as close to the wall as possible. Bend your knees, let both your soles touch each other, and bring them toward the groin as you hold them with your hands. Maintain this position for a few seconds and then release.
Parsva Tadasana
Stand with your legs hip-width apart next to a wall. Ensure your spine and hips are attached to it. Now raise your body and place your arms above your head. Interlock your fingers and then bend toward your right for a few seconds without detaching your spine and hips from the wall. Position yourself in the middle and then bend toward your left. Repeat.
