This Asana also stimulates the thyroid gland by giving compression to the region near the neck. It can also reduce stress and fatigue as it helps calm the brain to a great extent.

Steps:

· Lie on back, with arms alongside body and palms facing down

· Inhale and lift legs to 90 degrees & slowly exhale to bring legs over head

· Move your hands to support your lower back

· Try to touch the floor with your feet

· Bring your arms to the floor and alongside the body to release the pose

*Modification: Rather than touch your feet to the floor, it is easier to land your toes on a chair.
