Surya Namaskara's origins lie in India where its large Hindu population worships Surya, the Hindu solar deity. This sequence of movements and asanas can be practiced on varying levels of awareness, ranging from that of physical exercise in various styles, to a complete sadhana which incorporates asana, pranayama, mantra and chakra meditation. It is often the beginning vinyasa within a longer yoga series. Sūrya Namaskāra may also refer to other styles of "Salutations to the Sun".
Surya Namaskar is a series of twelve physical postures. These alternating backward and forward bending postures flex and stretch the spinal column through their maximum range giving a profound stretch to the whole body.
Often, after a hard days work, we would just flop down on the couch * apparently * relaxing our bodies - but it is NOT so. The stagnant energies remain locked up and the organs remain de-oxygenated to a large extent.
Surya Namaskar has a deep effect in detoxifying the organs through copius oxygenation and has a deeper relaxing effect.
Who should NOT do Surya Namaskar?
Pregnant women should not practice this after third month of pregnancy.
Patients of Hernia and high blood pressure are warned against this practice.
People suffering from back conditions should seek proper advice before commencing Surya Namaskar.
Women should avoid Surya Namaskar during menses.
