Ustrasana: The camel pose
This hatha yoga posture is the consummate back bend. it has it all! The opening of the heart center (anahata chakra); the stimulating and toning of the spinal nerves especially of the lumbar and sacral regions; the expansion of the principal respiratory muscles – the diaphragm; improves the functioning of the digestive organs, and also helps to energize the entire system.
