Mountain (Tadasana)

The basis of all standing yoga poses to improve your balance is the Mountain (Tadasana). When done correctly, the stance has several advantages, including increased balance, better posture, stronger legs, a toned upper body, and a decrease in flat feet. It may foster a feeling of courage and a strong physical foundation.

All subsequent postures might benefit from the principles of this straightforward yet potent pose. Focus on the way the body is being held, the way the weight is distributed between the feet, the muscles that are being used, and the body's sense of energy as you practice. The same essential components should be felt in the body while shifting between different standing positions. Depending on ancestry and individual skill, the stance can take on many different forms. The feet might be hip-distance apart or together with such that the big toes contact. The inside borders of the foot are parallel in both variants.

Try to evenly distribute weight between the balls and heels of the feet while pressing down to the sides while standing tall and observing the feet on the ground. Lift the thighs up toward the hip flexors to engage the thighs. To activate the Mula bandha, tuck the tailbone into the heels. Widen the collarbones while strengthening the upper body. Deep breathing will cause your chest to enlarge as you relax your shoulders. Give your jaw and the area between your eyebrows a chance to relax. As the legs dragged you down to the ground, lift the crown of your head toward the sky upward with the torso.
Hold the position steadily while taking deep breaths and developing balance in this basic yet essential posture.
