In the recent hectic life, stress is a very common phenomenon. However, it can be easily controlled with some simple Yoga Aasans, such as the following.
Surya Namaskar: This asana as the name suggests is offering our respect to Sun God, so has to be done early morning preferably before 8am; if possible, between 6 to 7 am. Join hands to do a namaskar looking towards the Sun. Slowly, stretch hands backward as you inhale, exhale and bring your hands to touch the ground.Now inhale and stretch your right leg out with your face up; exhale and do the same with left leg. From this position bring your body to touch the ground and up (Like doing a push up). Inhale and bring in first the right leg with face up and then the left leg. Now exhale, stand and again take your hands back. Bring it on front and finish with a namaskar to Sun.
Anulom Vilom: This breathing exercise is done with your thumb finger on top of one nostril and ring finger on another, alternatively covering the nostrils. Take air in from one nostril, hold it for a few seconds and exhale from the other nostril. From the one who just exhaled, inhale now and exhale from the other.
Sukhasana: Sit cross legged on the floor with a good posture. The hands should be on the knees facing upwards. Relax and then breathe in deeply, hold for a few seconds and then exhale.
Vajrasan: Sit on the mattress, without bending the back and with legs straight.Now fold the knees and sit on the feet. Gradually, part the legs a little and sit on the mattress. Sit in this position for about a few seconds to a few minutes, as your comfort level allows you.
