Pray to the sun / Yoga

The Sun Prayer, or Soora Namaskar in Indian, or "Pray to the Sun," is, along with the Headstand, the highest and therefore the best yoga pose. The name comes from the fact that this pose is practised in the early morning hours. The sun symbolises life, health, and longevity in general.

I practice it regularly. You can vary the execution; the best repetition is 12 times. The Sun Prayer is the ideal introduction to this magnificent yoga system for anyone.
