As for practice of asans is concerned, it is advised that some authentic book is situated, and its contents fully digested and assimilated. To begin with, the prospective adherent must seek guidance from a yoga expert who would clearly explain the Do’s and Dont’s of relevant and requisite asanas, with special reference to a particular disease for the eradication and cure of which a particular yogic asana is desired/recommended to be practised.

The asanas which we have referred to, in relation to particular disorders are called ‘Swasthya Asanas’ which are secondary to ‘Dhayana Asana’ which enjoy superior status because the latter ones aim at controlling wavered tendencies of mind, aid in controlling the mind, meditation and concentration.

For the efficient and proper performance of all the swasthya asanas, which are meant for the proper maintenance of body in healthy stat, only yoga teacher can guide.
