Ardha Chakrasana Yoga Asana:

Ardha chakrasana is an intermediate asana that can help to prepare the body and mind for deeper backbends and heart-opening postures like chakrasana (wheel pose). The name is derived from the Sanskrit ardha, meaning "half", "chakra", meaning "wheel", and asana, meaning "pose".

Ardha Chakrasana Yoga Asana Steps:

• First, raise your hands straight and then bend backwards.
• You can also place your hands on your hips while bending backwards.
• When you are bending backwards it is important to not bend your knees.
• Try to breathe slowly while performing this asana and also hold this position for a few seconds.
• Now while exhaling you need to come straight to your starting position.
• Repeat the above steps or 3 to 5 times.
