Janushirasana – Knee- Head Pose  

In praise of Janushirasana


There are many Asanas 
And postures in Yoga
Full of benefits 
And boons like advantages
For the human body and mind
Which can even rejuvenate
The aging factors
Which makes us a victim
To numerous diseases and ailments.

Among these 
The posture of Janushirasana          (Janu+ shirsha+ asana) 
Is the one 
Which rejuvenates the body and mind
In such a way
That one began to feel 
Youthfulness
Which often vanishes
Not only from the human body
But from the mind too
Making us behaving like
A different person 
Of no hopes and no ambitions.  01

Practicing the Asana
Would gradually make your body
More flexible to bend 
and to adopt new moulds
While improving the neuro-muscular system
and the spinal disorders.
These are mainly responsible
For loss of good health and youthfulness.

Since Janushirasana Asana 
Also tones-up 
The liver and the muscles and ligaments
Of the ribs and both sides of the trunk
It strengthen 
The most valuable and important
Organ of our human body
The Urinary system and kidneys
Of both man and woman
Even it removes the hurdles of 
Stones 
Which often makes our life
Unbearable to live and survive.

Among other things
It is a boon for woman
As it tones up the muscle of Uterus
And thus improves
The overall functioning of the
Human body and mind.

It brings the most important
And the most wanted desire
Of the peace of mind 
When Janushirasana is performed
With other necessary
Asanas as a regular practice.

Explanation: Janu means Thigh.

How to do Janushirasana-

While sitting on a plain soft blanket or plain ground stretch your left leg straight and bend your right leg from the knee so that your heel may touch your left thigh joint or can be as much near to your left leg thigh joint. Now while bending forward hold the big toe of your left foot with the thumb and two fingers index and central finger. 
In this process the left leg should be kept as straight as possible without bending of the left knee. Now bend forward further to bring your forehead into contact with your knee. In doing so try to keep the right legs knee in contact with the ground. Continue deep breathing.
Repeat the posture with the right let stretched and left leg heel touching the joint of your right thigh. Continue deep breathing for sometime as you had one earlier.
