2006-11-14 - Matsyasana - The Fish


MATSYASANA - The Fish

The Fish pose, is the counter-pose to the Shoulderstand -Sarvangasana.

Benefits:
Holding the pose exercises the chest, tones the nerves of the neck and back, and ensures that the thyroid and parathyroid glands obtain maximum benefit from the Shoulderstand.
It also expands the ribcage fully and so aids deep breathing and increases your lung capacity.
