Sun Salutations
Surya Namaskar (Sun salutations) The Sun Salutation originated as a series of prostrations to the sun. Traditionally, it is performed at dawn, facing the rising sun. In time, each of the twelve positions came to have its own mantra, celebrating aspects of the sun's divinity. It is a beautiful set of asanas that massages, detoxifies and stimulates almost every organ in the body and beings suppleness to the spine. It can be done fast, as a cardiac toner or at a slower pace to strengthen and tone the muscles and enhance the functioning of the internal organs. Even if you cannot fit an entire practice into your morning routine, just this will vitalize you enough for your day.
