Tadasana or Mountain Posture is an ideal asana to become aware of our body, of our posture. Thanks to its practice, we can be conscious and correct the imbalances or dysfunctions that we have in our body posture.<\/p>\n
In Sanskrit, Tada means mountain<\/em>, and Asana means posture<\/em>. Therefore, Tadasana is the posture of the mountain, in which we learn to stand, firm and erect like a mountain.<\/p>\n
Body awareness is one of the best weapons we have to avoid many of the illnesses we suffer. Our work, sports, or rest activities can develop some postures which are commonly harmful to our body.<\/p>\n
We need to be aware of our posture to avoid harm to our bodies. So keep reading to say goodbye to those back, head, arm, or leg pains caused by bad poses.<\/p>\n
The Alignment in Tadasana<\/h4>\n
Tadasana is the mother of yoga postures. It’s the ideal one that refers to the correct position that our body must maintain, without causing injury in the short or long term.<\/p>\n
It’s just as necessary to maintain a correct posture when we are standing and when we are sitting & lying down. Mountain posture or Tadasana will help you to become aware of standing. It is easy to stand on Tadasana, but at the same time, it is difficult to perform a Mountain posture with its perfect adjustments of alienation-activation-relaxation.<\/p>\n
