Yoga per pulizia del corpo | Yoga For Body Cleansing | Yogic Chart & Benefits of Asana in Italian

Asana is defined as “posture or pose;” its literal meaning is “seat.” Originally, there was only one asana– a stable and comfortable pose for prolonged seated meditation.

More than just stretching and toning the physical body, the yoga poses open the nadis (energy channels) and chakras (psychic centers) of the body. Yoga poses also purify and help heal the body, as well as control, calm and focus the mind.

The different categories of postures produce different energetic, mental, emotional and physical effects.
