45 Yoga Poses To Unlock Flexibility, Strength and Wellbeing

Wide-Angle Seated Forward Bend – Upavistha Konasana

“Upavistha Konasana,” or Wide-Angle Seated Forward Bend, is a yoga posture that softly challenges flexibility. Sit erect on a yoga mat and stretch your legs out wide. Inhale, lengthen the spine, and when exhaling, hinge forward from the hips, reaching your hands toward the feet or onto the floor, maintaining a straight back.

“Upavistha Konasana” is not just a stretch; it’s the serene embrace of inner space. This posture stretches the hamstrings and inner thighs, strengthens the spine, and stimulates abdominal organs. It also calms the mind, aiding in stress relief, as the body softens and the spirit reaches out to the realms of tranquility.
