Add to Favorites

Bhavasana or the Ideation pose comes from two Samskrta words Bhavasa which pertains to thoughts and feelings while ‘Asana’ means pose or posture. This pose is an ideal pose that is used for yoga exercise. It is also great for Sadhana. This asana activates the Ajina Cakra (center of the forehead which inspires spiritual ideation. It controls and energizes the pituitary gland, the endocrine glands and the brain.
