The various asanas are based on the scientific principles of yoga. The different asanas are designed to affect the chakras (vital energy points), nerves and muscles of the body. Through the asanas the various blockages are removed and prana circulates more effectively within the body and mind. Yogasanas help to rejuvenate the vital energies in the body, and raise the consciousness. By practicing yogasanas in a proper way the nerves in the brain are motivated to function more effectively. Since asanas are designed on these scientific principles so adopting particular asanas not only help recharge the brain but also enable the mind to acquire a peaceful state naturally. Thus yogasanas help in relaxing and de-stressing the mind. They help in enhancing mental alertness, concentration, memory, observation, and awareness. Since yogasanas are designed to bring about positive modification in the body and mind these benefits are bound to be manifested.
