Sun Salutation

Sun Salutation, or Surya Namaskar, is a series of yoga poses performed in a flowing sequence to honor the sun and promote physical health. It involves a combination of postures that stretch and strengthen muscles, improve flexibility, and enhance circulation. Typically, it starts with standing poses, moves through forward bends, lunges, and backbends, then repeats in a smooth, rhythmic flow. Practicing Sun Salutation regularly can increase vitality, calm the mind, and prepare the body for more advanced yoga activities. It’s accessible to many levels and serves as a foundation for overall well-being in yoga practice.
