SAVASANA IS TRANSLATED from Sanskrit as the corpse pose. Despite the seeming simplicity of performance – the body horizontal position on the floor with arms spread out and the legs at the width of the pelvis – this asana is one of the most complicated in yoga. To achieve a complete relaxation in it (and not to fall asleep at the same time), you’ll probably have to practice several times.
Perform Savasana at the end of each workout, and as an intermediate rest between exercises. Most people tend to maintain the tension of some parts of their body due to injuries, emotional blocks, and anxiety or for some other reasons.
For the maximum positive effect, practice Savasana with the intention to get rid of mental chatter and fully concentrate on the breathing process, fully realizing the entire body as a whole.
