Air pollution has increased in many areas at present. This is affecting people’s health. Lungs are most affected due to pollution. People have to face many problems including allergies and respiratory problems. In such a situation, yoga is a natural therapy which helps in increasing the lung capacity. Which yoga and pranayam are beneficial in increasing pollution? Swami Ramdev has told about this. Let us know.
Yoga helps the lungs to take more oxygen by increasing the capacity of breathing. It makes the process of breathing easier by strengthening the lung muscles. Yoga reduces stress, which reduces difficulty in breathing. It helps in keeping the lungs clean and functioning better by reducing the mucus accumulated in them. Let us know which yoga asanas are effective.
These yoga asanas are effective for lung health
kapalbhati
Swami Ramdev tells that Kapalbhati Pranayama is beneficial for keeping the lungs healthy. This reduces phlegm and reduces pressure in the lungs. By doing this, the toxins accumulated in the lungs are released and the lungs remain strong.
Bhujangasana
This yoga asana expands the spine and chest and increases space for the lungs. Due to this, breathing starts becoming deeper which improves the flow of oxygen. This asana reduces stiffness and fatigue of the lungs.
Vakrasana
This asana opens the muscles near the lungs and ribs by bending the middle part of the body. This makes it easier to take deep breaths. It reduces chest tightness and keeps the lungs flexible.
Makarasana
This asana is done in a relaxed state and gives instant relief to the lungs. Due to this, breathing starts becoming slow and deep, which reduces stress. It improves the respiratory system and relaxes the lungs.
