It relieves stress, anxiety and depression, increases productivity and energy levels, and reduces insomnia, headaches and fatigue.
Contraindications
Pregnancy and back problems.
Preparatory, Complementary and Follow-Up Poses
Savasana is usually the last pose at the end of your yoga practice but it can also be used at the beginning, to calm the body, and in the middle, to rest and refocus.
