1. What is Vajrasana?
  • Vajrasana is a kneeling pose, and it takes its name from Sanskrit word Vajra, which means diamond or thunderbolt. Asana, of course, means pose. This diamond pose is also called Adamantine pose.
  • This posture is supposed to be practiced on an empty stomach, but this asana is one of the few exceptions. You can safely perform this asana after a meal. In fact, it is more effective if performed immediately after a meal. This pose promotes proper digestion.
  • The duration of this posture is 5 to 10 minutes only after every meal for proper digestion.
  • It also works on stretching ankles, thighs, knees and hips.
  • The science behind the Vajrasana is a steady, firm pose, and those who assume it can't be shaken easily. It is is a meditative pose, but sitting in this pose can be quite challenging. One has to conquer the pain in the legs and the unrest in the mind to master the pose and enter a meditative state. 
  •  The Vajrasana regulates blood circulation in the lower pelvic region. Sitting on your legs reduces the blood flow in the legs and increases it in the digestive area, therefore increasing the efficiency of the digestive system.
