Tadasana, or the mountain pose is a great pose in yoga for beginners. If done regularly, it helps in the overall development of the body. Tadasana pose is one of the best hatha yoga poses to relieve your back pain and helps in weight loss.

By Rebecca Chabot As I stand in Tadasana, the simple starting posture of many yoga classes, I reap the benefits of the stillness and focus that are required. As my legs engage and my spine lengthens, my body learns the correct way to stand. My body awareness is increased and my sense of balance is refined. My breath is steady and calm, increasing the oxygen that is circulated through my body. As with all standing poses in yoga, Tadasana not only helps to improve circulation, but also stimulates digestion and elimination, expels dullness and depression, and leaves me feeling invigorated, refreshed and light. The soothing calmness of my conscious breathing helps to cease the fluctuations of my mind.

Practicing this pose will help you maintain a quieter posture for longer, but no amount of practice will eliminate the need for genuine effort to accomplish it.

One day I was interrupted by a young athletic lady who asked me, "What were the advantages of going so slow?" I felt that a few notions of chakras and band has would be necessary to answer her demands.
