EXPLANATORY NOTES

Each yoga figure, like the asana it represents, is designed to improve
the health and balance of a different aspect of the body and mind.
Whether through meditation on the yoga figure or actual yoga practice,
each posture brings the yogi, or practitioner, closer to self-realization and health.

• 
  The Angled Head Stand yoga asana, for example, (also called Sirshasana utthita in Sanskrit)
  helps relieve stress and brings balance and health by sending oxygen to the upper body and head..
• The Lotus yoga asana (padmasana) helps bring clarity and centeredness to the mind and body
  through meditation. This is the primary posture of yoga.
• The Bridge yoga pose (Setu Bandha Sarvangasana) relieves stress and fatigue,
  and strengthens the back.
• The Shoulder Stand yoga posture (Sarvangasana) strengthens the back
  and brings balance and health to the digestive tract.
• The Childs Pose yoga asana (Utthita Bahlasana) releases pressure
  on the spine and promotes deep relaxation.
• The Bow yoga asana (Dhanvrasana) brings strength, health
  and flexibility to the spine.
• The Head to Knee Bend yoga asana (janu sirsasana) stretches
  the legs and tones the abdomen.
