Benefit from executionLotus pose

• Closes leg energy channels and prevents energy losses.

• Apana-vayu, or the energy of decomposition always flows down and leads a person to illness and death. This type of prana regulates the excretory and reproductive functions. And excessive outflow of it externally drains the human body. Therefore, the goal of yogic practice is to raise the prana - apana-vayu upwards.
• According to the theory in yoga, our internal disturbances( mental blocks, energy dirt, etc.) are stored in thin energy bodies from the bottom up. Therefore, the feet are the most polluted in terms of energy waste. Because the padmasana unfolds the current of the apana upwards, it cleanses the mental blocks. But, nevertheless, the practice of the Lotus pose must be carried out without violence and pain.

• Strengthens the circulation in the organs of the small pelvis, tones back muscles, promotes the development of proper posture.
