Yoga - MAKARASANA (CROCODILE POSE)

Yoga - MAKARASANA (CROCODILE POSE) This asana is very similar to the sphinx asana. It is an asana that many people do naturally. We think it is worthwhile mentioning because it is so beneficial for those who suffer from slipped discs or other spinal disorders, as well as asthma and other lung ailments.

Technique
Lie flat on the stomach with the head and shoulders raised off the ground. The head is cupped in the palms with the elbows resting on the ground. Relax the whole body and close the eyes. Be aware of the natural and rhythmic breathing pattern. If you like you can also count the breath.


Benefits
If you suffer from any spinal or lung ailments we suggest you lie in makarasana for as long as possible; the longer the better. You can even read a book in this asana. This position encourages the spine to resume its normal shape and releases compression of the spinal nerves (sciatica). Th e chest is also expanded allowing an increased amount of air to enter the lungs, which is a great help in alleviating congestion and other ailments of the respiratory system.
This asana can also be used as a simple meditational pose by those persons who find sitting asanas impossible.
