5 Yoga Poses For a Flat Tummy

Hi everyone ,

When you are on a weight loss journey, you might quickly see the results on other areas except the tummy.  It’s really tough to lose the tummy fat.  With strict dieting, gym, and exercising, your body would get into shape, but it’s an uphill task to get rid of the stomach flab.  This is where yoga can help you.  Yoga is a form of exercise that benefits every part of the body. There are yogasanas to control blood pressure and some yoga postures increase strength and posture.  Yoga also helps to maintain the body in perfect equilibrium. Westerners have lapped up yoga because it can bring about perfect tandem of mind, body, and soul.  Yoga helps one to stay youthful.  People have been practicing yoga to lose weight also.I am going to tell about some asanas that will help you to get a flat tummy.

1. Dhanurasana or Bow Pose: 

In this asana, you should stretch your body to take the shape of a bow. The whole body stretches during this asana. It is particularly beneficial for the abdominal muscles which stretches out fully. It also has an effect on enzyme producing organs such as liver, pancreas, small intestine and big intestine. All these organs become more active and efficient and would aid in fast metabolism. This asana also increases blood circulation.

2.  Navasana:  

This asana strengthens the abdominal muscles and lower back.  It improves digestion and works on the lower abdominal organs.  Navasana or the boat pose is called such because the body resembles like a boat.

3.  Sethu Bandha Sarvanasana:  

When you are in this pose, your body resembles a bridge.  This pose is beneficial for your entire body including your heart, chest, shoulders, spine, and abdomen.  It also calms down the mind.  This pose stimulates the abdominal organs and aids in faster metabolism.

4.  Bhujangasana: 

This asana is named such because your body resembles that of a cobra snake.  This asana strengthens the chest, abdomen, and butt.  This asana increases body heat and awakens kundalini.

5.  Surya namaskar:

Surya namaskar or “sun salutation” is a sequence of asanas.  It’s a complete exercise with 12 different asanas which benefits the entire body including the abdomen and tummy.  Surya namaskar will help you lose weight from the entire body, including the tummy.
