Mayurasana (peacock pose) #
मयूरासन [mayūrāsana]
Mayurasana is a squeezing out pose that should be done with the straight back. The energy you squeeze out from the lower part (Mani-pura and pancreas) moves like in Bhujangasana. It can be replaced: like a stretching pose — by bhujangasana; and like a squeezing pose — by lying face down on the wrists under the belly (which is a good help, if you overate). If you can’t do asana well, better don’t do it at all.
