Preparation

This posture strengthens the arm and shoulder muscles and stretches the chest. It loosens up the legs and develops a sense of balance and stability. Let's look at how it's done.

Method

Step 1

Sit in padmasana

Step 2

Insert the hands between the calves and thighs, near the knees

Step 3

Place the palms of the hands firmly on the floor with the fingers pointing forward

Step 4

Keeping the head straight and the eyes fixed on a point in front, raise the body from the floor, balancing it only on the hands

Step 5

Come back to padmasana and slowly release the asana by straightening your legs

Step 6

And that's how you do Kukkutasana

Step 7

Precautions: People with back pain, neck pain, wrist injury, hernia, high blood pressure or heart disease should avoid this pose.
