MANDUKASANA
The shape on formation of this Asana resembles a frog. Sit in Vajrasana with both the legs bent in the rear. Keep both the paws of the legs touching each other. Keep both the heels opened out.
Mandukasana improves functions of all organs. It improves the lungpower, circulation in the walls of the chest and abdomen and tone of the abdominal and shoulder muscles. It also improves sciatica in some people.
