What are the benefits of Suryanamaskar?

The benefits of Suryanamskar are listed below:

1. Suryanamaskar is designed in a way that it covers all the muscle groups of the body activating each part. 
2. It is highly detoxifying because of its vigorous nature. 
3. It helps to build heat (Ojas) in the body which helps us in our spiritual journey and helps us overcome many emotional, mental and physical barriers. 
4. It works on 6 chakras activating and energising them. This gives our entire system a boost and helps us excel in different areas of our life. 
5. It is a highly potent practice for building self confidence, balance, vigour and maintain overall health. 

In Ashtanga we begin the practice with 5 type A and 5 type B suryanamaskars always. This by itself is a powerful Sadhana.
