Digestive Wellness with Supta Virasana-Iyengar Yoga

Supta Virasana

Kathy Cook

Senior Iyengar Yoga Teacher

Supta Virasana is an integral part of one’s yoga practice. By learning how to hold this posture for longer durations, you can experience its numerous benefits. With regular exercise, even individuals who are tight and stiff can find it more accessible over time and with correct practice.

This asana primarily focuses on extending the fronts of the thighs and extending the lower back, which plays a crucial role in maintaining pelvic balance. It also aids in alleviating low back pain by properly lengthening the quadriceps and hamstrings.

Supta Virasana can be practiced at any time, and it is particularly beneficial for improving digestion and aiding in ankle injury recovery when performed with appropriate support. Enjoy experiencing the benefits of regular practice.
