Adho Mukha Svanasana

Adho Mukha Svanasana

Adho Mukha Svanasana also called Downward Dog or Downward-Facing Dog is a popular Hatha Yoga posture or asana. Downward Dog begins by kneeling with the hands and knees on the floor, hands under the shoulders, fingers spread wide, knees under the hips, knees about seven inches apart, spine straight and relaxed.
On a deep exhale, the hips are pushed toward the ceiling, the body forming an inverted V-shape. Legs are straight. Arms are straight, elbows engaged, shoulders wide and relaxed. The heels move toward the floor. Hands and feet remain hip-width apart. If the hamstrings are very strong or tight, the knees should be bent to allow the spine to lengthen fully.
Pressure is avoided on the wrists by pressing into the fingers and palms, directing the push upward into the hips. The head drops naturally. The heart moves toward the back wall.
The hips move up and back. Relying on the breath while holding the posture, the student takes deep, steady inhales and exhales that create a flow of energy through the body. Concentration on maintaining a slow, rhythmic, sustaining breath is most important. On an exhale, the student releases onto the hands and knees and rests

Bhujangasana Yoga Asanas

Bhujangasana

Bhujangasana (cobra position) is a hatha yoga position which strengthens the spine; stretches chest and lungs, shoulders, and abdomen; firms the buttocks; stimulates abdominal organs; helps relieve stress and fatigue; opens the heart and lungs. 
Traditional texts say that Bhujangasana increases body heat, destroys disease, and awakens kundalini. Bhujangasana is often followed by Salabhasana.
 

Balasana yoga aasan

Balasana


Balasana is a Hatha yoga posture, called "Child's pose" or "Child's Resting Pose" in English.
In this pose, the knees are bent with the lower leg on the floor. The chest can rest either on the knees or the knees can be spread to about the width of a yoga mat, allowing the chest to go between the knees. The head is stretched forward toward the ground - the forehead may touch the ground. The arms may be stretched forward or turned backwards towards the feet.
Balasana is a simple relaxation position in yoga. The pose can become rather active through breath. Many yoga instructors recommend using this pose if a rest is needed and allow students to substitute this pose for Downward Dog during a sun salutation. It is usually practiced before and after Sirsasana / Headstand.

Paschimottanasana Yoga Asanas,

Paschimottanasana

Paschimottanasana
Paschimottanasana literally translated as "intense stretch of the west".
A yoga position (or asana) where one sits on the floor with legs flat on the floor, straight ahead. Lift spine long, hinge from the hips instead of the waist. Lean forward without bending your knees. Focus on bringing chest forward, not on bringing the head to the floor.
A similar frontbend is Uttanasana which is a standing front bend. Some consider Paschimottanasana to be a safer stretch since gravity is less of a factor than active flexibility in achieving flexibility in the furthest reaches of the stretch. It is more passive in its initial stages, making it a good transition between the two forms. The arms can also more easily support the upper body in this vulnerable position, and can be used
both to move further into or move out of the stretch.
Unlike Uttanasana it is also much easier to move the legs, rotating them inward or outward, abducting or adducting them at the hip, flexing or extending the knees, or enacting plantar or dorsi flexion of the ankle. These variations can be performed either as a combined stretch, to change emphasis on different tissues, or simply to take one's mind off of the hamstrings and lower back being stretched. They can be used rythmically to aid in relaxation.

Variety of Yoga Asanas

Variety of Yoga AsanasAn important publication of a rather large number of asanas, has been presented in 1959 by Swami Vishnu-devananda. In his book The Complete Illustrated Book of Yoga his published 66 136 variations of asanas, which found their basis at 66 different asanas. In his book Vishnu-devananda enlarges on other subjects relating to hatha yoga, like pranayama and the filosofy and aim of yoga.
Sri Dharma Mittra, composer of the Master Yoga Chart of 908 Postures, states that there are an infinite number of asanas. In 1975, as an offering of devotion to his guru, Swami Kailashananda Maharaj, Dharma set out to catalogue the vast number of asanas. All together he compiled 1300 variations, that he derived from gurus, yogis, and ancient and contemporary texts. Although it will not be possible in any way to establish an exact set of postures, this work is considered a leading collection by students and yogis alike.
Some asanas are practiced most commonly and others rarely, like Downward Facing Tree (hand stand).
