Simhasana Yoga Posture, the Lion Pose
Simha means lion. The facial expression of the yogi resembles that of a lion while assuming this pose.
The Procedure for Simhasana
1. Sit on Vajrasana.
2. Raise your buttock a little, place your right foot crossed over the left ankle.
3. Sit by pressing the perineum against the ankle of the left leg. Keep body straight, chest thrust forward and shoulder stretched backwards. Place hands on knees palms down and spread out the fingers in all directions.
4. Exhale through mouth with a puff sound, push the tongue out of mouth, and push it down. Gaze at the tip of nose.
5. Slowly release the tension, take the tongue into mouth, loosen your hands, and inhale.
6. Take two or three normal breathing. Practice this for a few times.
