Yoga poses for weight loss:
As most of the yoga poses are very effective in reducing excessive fat from the body. However, some of the poses are extremely effective in reducing weight very fast with a proper diet and some precautions.
In the very morning, perform some purification processes like:
Sahaja Bastikriya:
Wake up at the early morning and then drink a glass of warm water with lemon and little salt added to it, then without any interval practice Viparitkarani Mudra for four times followed by Shalbhasana four times and then Padahastasana four times.
Viparitkarani Mudra: Lie flat on a mat with hands and legs are straight and inside area of your legs is touching each other. Now place your palms on the side of the respective hips and inhale deeply. Now slowly raise your hips and legs upwards of the ground with the help of your palms by bending the hands in the elbow joint and exhale. Remain in this position up to six counts and then slowly drop your hips first and return to the starting position and breathe normally.
Shalbhasana: Lie on your stomach with your hands is placed on the respective sides. Now slowly raise your legs upwards up to the thighs and inhale. At the final position, you hold your breath there for 5-6 seconds and then slowly drop your legs to the starting position and exhale. If you find difficult to practice lifting both legs together you should practice with a single leg lifting.
Padahastasana: First stand erect while the heels are touching each other and raise your hands upward by the side of your ears and then slowly bend forward in the waist and make sure your knees are straight. In this position, the hands are straight as well. Now keep your palms just next to the side of your respective feet and position your forehead between your knee joints. Remain in this position up to eight seconds.
Then some pressures will be created in the intestines and will help you remove any prolonged constipation problem.
After this, practice Agnisara Dhauti. First take a seat and inhale deeply as well as slowly squeeze your navel and lower abdomen. Now you should try to touch your spine by this squeezing and slowly exhale and release the holding. Practice this at least 10 times.
Then practice Bhraman Pranayama. This Pranayama is very easy to perform and effective too. Now walk gentle as a step-by-step and count 1-2-3-4. Now make your first step and count one and inhale, then make your second step and count two and inhale and do this up to four counts. After this, exhale and count one, then exhale and count two and go on up to four counts. This Pranayama is done at the rhythm of every step of yours thus it is named as Bhraman (Travelling) Pranayama. Practice this Pranayama up to six minutes.
You are done with your morning exercises and follow the diet below.
Breakfast with fresh fruits, before taking fruits take half glasses of water with one tablespoon of honey added to it and drink. Five minutes after this, you can eat fruits as breakfast.
Lunch is very much with the seasonal vegetables and with regional food habits. Please do not eat fish and meat, etc. very frequently. It is better to limit yourself from using dairy products much.
In the evening, some yoga poses are to be performed again. Makarasana four times, Paschimottanasana four times and Yogamudra eight times, then perform simple Anulom-Vilom Pranayama.
Makarasana: Lie down on your stomach and place your hands by the side of your thighs, then spread your legs out by keeping your heels inward and toes pointing outwards. Now first bend your left hand in the elbow and keep it on your right shoulder. Bend your right hand in the elbow joint and keep it on your left shoulder. Place your head between your elbows. Breathe normal.
Paschimottanasana: This is the exact pose as described above in the Padahastasana, but here it should be done while sitting on the ground.
Yogamudra: Now first take a seat and perform Padmasana or Siddhasana posture. Keep your spine erect and move both your hands behind the back, and catch hold of your right wrist with the left hand. Women should hold the left wrist with the right hand. Now exhale and bend in the waist downwards until your forehead touches the ground. Remain in this position up to five seconds and hold your breath. Now inhale and slowly return to the starting position. Practice this at least seven times.
Then perform simple Anulom-Vilom Pranayama.
