Unhealthy lifestyles and poor eating habits lead to many physical problems. Currently, many fertility- problems are being seen during menstruation. Improper diet and increased stress can lead to irregular periods and ovulation. Many women also face difficulty conceiving.

 

Importance of right diet and lifestyle

However, these problems can be avoided if you adjust your diet and lifestyle. Regular yoga practice can help regulate periods and increase fertility. Let’s explore which yoga poses can be helpful in this process.

 

Practice of Supta Bandha Konasana

Supta Baddha Konasana is simple to perform, but if you’re not a regular yoga practitioner, it can be a bit challenging at first. You may want to seek help from a trained yoga teacher.

To perform this asana, start by sitting upright on a yoga mat. You can also do this before going to bed.

Now, exhale and bend your knees and bring your heels towards the pelvic floor.

Join the soles of both feet together and open the knees on both sides like a butterfly.

Keep in mind that the soles of the feet should always remain together.

Bring the heels as close to the pelvic floor as possible.

Keep the spine straight and the hands slightly away from the body, palms facing upwards.

While breathing, lift your knees upwards.

You should feel a stretch in the pelvic floor.

After this, bring the legs back to the starting position.

 

Benefits of Supta Baddha Konasana

With regular practice of this asana, problems occurring during periods start reducing.

Supta Baddha Konasana is helpful in improving the reproductive health of women.

It improves blood circulation in the pelvic floor, thereby ensuring the right amount of oxygen reaches the reproductive organs.

This reduces tension in the pelvic floor.

If you do this before sleeping, it reduces stress.

It removes hormonal imbalance and makes ovulation healthy.

This relaxes the body and improves mental health.

If you are planning to conceive, do not forget to include this in your daily routine.
