In yoga practice, we often ignore many postures that look simple but are very beneficial to the body
.
However, the simpler they are, the more you need to observe and practice them carefully
.
There are many reasons why they are ignored
.
They may be difficult to integrate them into the Yoga sequence, or they look too “simple”, or we may not realize the benefits of postures
.
Today, I’d like to introduce a super simple and practical yoga pose – squat padangusthasana (toe squat), which is a variant of traditional yoga squat
.
It has many different names, including toe squat and one leg squat..

In such a squat, the reciprocating movement of blood improves the blood vessel function, speeds up the blood circulation and metabolism in the body, activates the immune system, and can quickly remove harmful and toxic metabolites, The human body is naturally healthier
