Practicing yoga has many health benefits. Here are some benefits of Vajrasana or the Thunderbolt Pose.
In this position, your thighs should press your calf muscles. Place your pelvis on your heels and point your toes outward. Finally, place your palms on your knees with the palms facing up. Straighten your back and look forward.
Performing Vajrasana helps us to get rid of flatulence (gas) and acidity, improves bowel movement, and relieves constipation.
Our lower back muscles get strengthened if we perform Vajrasana every day. Occasional pain and discomfort, pain caused by sciatica can all be managed with Vajrasana.
Performing Vajrasana can help stimulate the abdominal organs like the pancreas and liver, and this in turn can improve the body’s ability to produce insulin in an optimal way.
This yoga pose can help reduce stress and is therefore effective in managing hypertension and related cardiovascular disorders.
By regulating anxiety and stress, Vajrasana helps us in sleeping well at night.
