Janu Naman (Knee bend)
Stand up straight, feet together. Hold a chair for support if your balance is not steady. Inhale. Lift your right leg, bending at the knee, so that it forms a right angle. Now exhale, flaring out the knee towards the right. Hold, breathing normally. Inhale, return to starting position. Repeat thrice. Relax. Then repeat the entire sequence for the left side.
Benefits: Reduces fluid retention that accompanies a sedentary job. Works out the delicate but important knee joints as well as the entire limb while at the same time toning and strengthening the leg muscles. Relieves spinal problems, improves balance as well as posture. The cerebellum, involved with your social functions, also gets a workout, harmonising pleasantly with your personality.
