Paschimottanasana, also known as the Seated Forward Bend, is a yoga pose that stretches the entire back of the body. To perform this asana, sit with your legs extended straight in front of you and slowly bend forward from the hips, reaching for your feet or shins. This pose helps improve flexibility in the hamstrings and spine while calming the mind. Practicing Paschimottanasana can also aid in digestion and relieve stress. It is often included in yoga sequences for its restorative benefits and is suitable for practitioners of all levels. Regular practice can enhance overall well-being and promote relaxation.
