Yoga Positions for Beginners

 Yoga positions for beginners are so easy to learn. If you have not experienced any yoga session or have not seen one, that is not a problem. 

Yoga is a great form of exercise for beginners because it can be modified to suit any fitness level and can help to improve flexibility, strength, and balance. Here are five yoga positions that are suitable for beginners:

Mountain pose (Tadasana): 

This is a great starting pose for any yoga practice. Stand with your feet hip-width apart, shoulders relaxed, and arms by your sides. Lift your toes and spread them wide, then gently lower them back down and feel a connection to the earth through the soles of your feet. Lift your chest and gaze forward, keeping your weight evenly balanced on both feet.

Downward-facing dog (Adho Mukha Svanasana): 

This pose helps to stretch the whole body and is a great way to warm up before moving on to more challenging poses. Start on all fours, with your hands shoulder-width apart and your knees hip-width apart. Lift your hips and straighten your legs, pressing down through your hands and feet. Keep your heels reaching towards the ground, but don't worry if you can't touch the ground yet – just keep working towards it.

Warrior I (Virabhadrasana I): 

This pose helps to strengthen the legs and open the hips. From downward-facing dog, step your right foot forward between your hands. Square your hips towards the front of your mat and lift your arms overhead, gazing up at your fingertips. Keep your back heel pressing down, and your front knee bent at a 90-degree angle.

Tree pose (Vrikshasana): 

This pose helps to improve balance and strengthen the legs. Stand with your feet hip-width apart and ground down through both feet. Shift your weight onto your left foot and bring your right foot to rest on your left thigh, ankle, or calf. Bring your hands to prayer position at your heart, or lift your arms overhead if it feels comfortable. Gaze forward and take deep breaths.

Child's pose (Balasana): 

This is a great resting pose that can be done at any time during your practice. Start on all fours, then lower your hips back towards your heels and stretch your arms out in front of you. You can also bring your arms by your sides and relax your forehead onto your mat. Take deep breaths and stay here for as long as you need.

Remember to listen to your body and take breaks as needed. It's also important to work with a qualified instructor if you are new to yoga to ensure that you are doing the poses safely and correctly.
