Garbhasana (Eagle Pose) Yoga Asana:

Garudasana is derived from the Sanskrit words garuda and asana which translate to eagle and pose respectively. It involves the person practising it (i.e., the yogi) standing upright and twisting one arm with the other and one leg with the other

Garbhasana (Eagle Pose) Yoga Asana Steps:

• Stand in Tadasana or “Mountain Pose” which involves your feet being slightly apart.
• Bend both knees and lift your right foot. At a slow pace wrap your right thigh over your left. Following this curl your right foot behind your left calf and hook it there. Make sure your knees don’t feel any strain and ensure your left knee faces forward.
• Bring your arms forward and wrap your left arm over your right arm such that your left elbow crosses over your right upper arm. Bring your right hand toward your face and cross your forearms and press your palms together. Your elbows should be raised to shoulder height.
• Maintain this position for five deep breaths and feel your upper back strech.
• Return to the original Tadasana posture and repeat with the other side.
