Swami Ramdev Recommends These Yoga Asanas to Boost Women's Mental Health

In today’s fast-paced life, women face increased mental stress due to responsibilities at home and work, hormonal changes, and inadequate rest. Swami Ramdev highlights that regular yoga practice not only strengthens the body but stabilizes the mind, increasing oxygen supply, reducing fatigue, and balancing hormones to lessen mood swings and irritability. Meditation and pranayama further improve focus and inner peace, making yoga a powerful tool for mental detox.

The recommended asanas include:

• Child Pose (Balasana): Calms the mind instantly, relieves head and spine tension, and promotes deep sleep—ideal for mental fatigue and restlessness.

• Viparita Karani (Contrari Karni Asana): Boosts blood circulation and reduces anxiety, headaches, and stress, leaving the mind light.

• Bridge Pose (Setu Bandhasana): Maintains hormonal balance, decreases mood swings and irritability, enhances energy, and strengthens spinal muscles.

• Shavasana: Known as the posture of complete mental peace, it relieves negative thoughts, relaxes the body, and sharpens focus.

• Sukhasana Forward Bend: Calms the mind, relaxes the body, improves concentration, and fosters emotional stability.

Additional advice includes practicing yoga on an empty stomach or after light meals, consulting qualified instructors initially, dedicating 20–30 minutes daily, ensuring proper sleep and diet, minimizing screen time to allow mental rest, and practicing deep breathing for stress reduction.

By adopting these practices, women can cultivate mental strength and balance to better handle life’s demands.
