When we do Yogasana, a lot of energy is released from our body and we feel tired if we do not relax our body properly.  A quick method of relaxing yourself is located below.

Lie down on your Yoga mat in Shavasana keeping one and a half feet distance between your legs. Keep your arms 6 to 7 inches away from your body, the half-open palms facing upward. Close your eyes gently.

Now follow this command without interacting or reasoning –

BE AWARE OF YOUR RIGHT LEG AND BE AWARE OF YOUR LEFT LEG

BE AWARE OF YOUR RIGHT ARM AND BE AWARE OF YOUR LEFT ARM

BE AWARE OF YOUR TOUCH WITH THE MOTHER EARTH

BE AWARE OF YOUR BACK AND BE AWARE OF YOUR NECK

BE AWARE OF YOUR FRONT, FACE AND REST OF THE SKULL

BE AWARE OF THE SPACE WITH IN YOU AND BE AWARE OF THE SPACE OUTSIDE YOUR BODY

WITH THIS INCREASED AWARENESS, OBSERVE WHAT HAPPENS WHEN WE BREATH IN AND WHAT HAPPENS WHEN WE BREATH OUT

FILL THE AIR IN YOUR LUNGS BY CHANTING ‘SO’ MENTALLY AND RELEASE THE AIR BY CHANTING ‘HUM’ MENTALLY

IMAGINE THAT WHEN YOU BREATH IN, FRESH AIR OF MILKY COLOR GOES TO YOUR LUNGS AND ALONG WITH THIS AIR YOU INSTILL THE NOBLE IDEAS WITHIN YOURSELF, YOUR BLOOD GETS PURIFIED AND YOU FEEL REFRESHED

WHEN YOU BREATH OUT, THE FOUL AIR OF DARK COLOR GOES OUT WITH ALL THE FREE RADICALS, AILMENTS, AND ILL WILL

CONTINUE CHANTING MENTALLY ‘SO’ AND ‘HUM’ WITH EACH INHALATION AND EXAHALATION FOR FOUR TO FIVE TIMES

NOW RAISE YOUR HANDS AND RUB YOUR PALMS TOGETHER AND PUT THEM ON YOUR CLOSED EYES FOR A FEW SECONDS.

RAISE YOUR BODY FROM LEFT SIDE AND SIT DOWN.
