IMAGE: The Eka Pada Rajakapotasana is known to improve flexibility in the hips, pelvis and groin, along with opening up the shoulders and the chest.
'This posture opens the hips and releases negative feelings and undesirable energy stored in your body,' says Ankita.

'Make sure you open up the hip muscles before you give this pose a try,' advises Ankita.
