Garudasana
Also known as Eagle pose.

Garuda was considered King of birds and also represented as Lord Vishnu’s vehicle.

Garudasana comes from the ancient Hatha yoga practice. It is an intermediate hip-closing pose which
requires the practitioner to intertwine their arms and legs and balance all their body weight on one foot.

This pose improves balance, calms the mind and strengthens the ankles, knees and calves while gently
stretching the hip, shoulders, thighs, upper-back.

2) Place your right thigh high across the left thigh(cross-legged) and aim to wrap your right leg on top of Keyboard shortcuts Map data ©2022 Terms of Use

left leg, by taking your right shin behind your left calf.

3) Try to hook your right ankle behind the left leg. Keep actively squeezing your legs together.

4) stretch your arms to the side, palms facing upwards. Gently bring them in front and bend your elbows,
bringing them closer to each other.

5) place your right elbow a little over the crease of left elbow and wrap your forearms around each other.
Squeeze your left Lngers against right palm. Right hand Lngers point towards the ceiling/sky.

6) Lx your gaze at a point in front (3-5 feet away) and keep your knee comfortably bent for better stability.
Hold the pose for 3-5 deep breaths and switch the pose with the other side (balancing on right leg, with
left leg and arm on top of right leg and right arm) Hold the pose for 3-5 breaths.

For a more challenging variation, try to lift your heel. Or try to balance with closed eyes (be careful)

How to come back:

Gently release your arms Lrst, spread them to the side for improving stability.

Squeeze your inner thighs closer to each other and unhook your ankle, unwrap your leg and place your
foot on the Moor and return to samasthithi.

Tips to avoid injuries:

foot against the calf of lower leg.
