Dradhasana (Firm pose/ side-relaxation pose)
Lie on your right side. Fold the right arm, using it as a cushion. Align your body so that it is in one straight line. Shut eyes, and relax in this pose, breathing normally. Switch sides, so you are now lying on the left side for an equal duration.
Points to note: If unable to align body initially, you may fold your legs at the knees or where required. But try to attain perfection in this pose, with regular practice.
Benefits: For those with pain, this pose is an ideal one to relax or even sleep in. Relaxing on each side for equal durations harmonises both brain hemispheres, helping you attain inner balance. It is a good meditation pose, and an ideal one in which to catnap when you cannot afford to doze off for long. It is ranked as a healing pose.
