Yoga Sutra defines asana or posture as that which is comfortable and easy, as well as firm. Asana is a dynamic position, in which the practitioner is perfectly poised between activity and non-activity. A corresponding mental balance exists between movement and stillness. Yoga teaches that each posture reflects a mental attitude. A posture or asana can be used for rejuvenating specific organs and glands as well as the spine. There are about eighty-four asanas commonly used in yoga. Most of the important asanas are described in depth.
