Physical and Therapeutical Benefits of Asana

Some of the benefits of doing Vasisthasana are that you strengthen your arms, spine, core, legs, and buttocks because you have to hold them strong. The pose also stretches and strengthens the wrists. Doing the pose helps you improve your balance and prepares you for more challenging arm balance poses. If you chose to do the full version, it also stretches the hamstrings. Another benefit of vasisthasana is that it helps the mind focus. In the position, one must concentrate and deepen the mind's focus on balance and on the breath.
