Benefits of Surya Namaskar: The ultimate asana

Many people think that the ‘Surya Namaskar’, or the sun salutation as it is called in English, is just an exercise that strengthens your back and your muscles. But people often fail to realize that it is a complete workout for your entire physical system, one that does not require the use of any equipment. It also aids us in breaking free from the exhaustive and dull routines of our lives.

When done in the right way and at the right time, Surya Namaskar can totally change your life. It may take a little extra time to show results, but you’ll soon find your skin detoxed like never before. Regularly practicing Surya Namaskar enhances the size of your solar plexus, thereby increasing your creativity, intuitive abilities, decision-making, leadership skills and confidence.

Though Surya Namaskar can be done at any time of the day, the most appropriate and beneficial time is at sunrise since that is when the sun rays revitalize your body and freshen up your mind. Practicing it in the afternoon energizes your body instantly while performing it at dusk helps you unwind.
