Method: Lie down on your abdomen, chin touching the ground, arms on both sides of the body, fists with knuckles touching the ground and close to the body, heels and toes together. Inhaling lift one leg without bending the knee as far as comfortable and stop lifting, the
moment you feel a drag on the bottom of the spinal chord. Hold for 3 sec. and exhaling bring it down to the floor. Do it with alternate legs for 5 times. Once you are comfortable lifting one leg, then try to lift both the legs together, holding your breath and putting a slight pressure on your fists.
Shalbhasana activates the entire abdominal area and cures acidity, constipation, wind troubles, indigestion, gastro-intestinal disorders and also eliminates nervous tension.
