Utthita Parsvakonasana

The extended side angle pose, Utthita Parsvakonasana, is a continuation of Virabhadrasana II, but where the trunk and arms are stretched to the side, forming a straight line from the foot all the way to the tips of the fingers. Like all standing poses, it develops shapely and strong legs, and also opens the chest.

Health is the delicate balance in the harmony of the body, mind and spirit where physical disabilities and mental distractions have vanished.
