Health: Delhi-NCR air turns suffocating after Diwali; do these 5 yoga poses to keep your lungs healthy..

After Diwali, Delhi-NCR is covered in a blanket of air pollution. Due to firecrackers and stubble burning in neighboring states, air pollution levels are reaching new heights. In such a situation, the continuously deteriorating air quality causes the most damage to our lungs.

Toxic particles present in polluted air directly attack our respiratory system, causing serious lung damage. In such a situation, regular yoga practice (Yoga Poses for Healthy Lungs) can play an important role in increasing lung function and keeping them healthy. Let's learn some yoga asanas to keep the lungs healthy.

Pranayama
Pranayama directly strengthens the respiratory system. Anulom-Vilom, Kapalabhati, and Bhastrika Pranayama are especially helpful in increasing lung capacity. Regular practice improves oxygen absorption in the lungs and eliminates toxins.

Bhujangasana
This asana helps open the chest and expand the lungs. Regular practice strengthens the lung muscles and improves lung function.

Dhanurasana
This asana can also prove to be very beneficial for the respiratory system. It expands the chest, developing the ability to breathe deeply.

Matsyasana
This asana stretches the neck and chest, opening the respiratory tract and allowing abundant oxygen to reach the lungs.

Ushtrasana
In this asana, the body is bent backward, allowing the chest to fully open and the lungs to expand.

Tadasana
This is a simple yet effective asana that is beneficial for the respiratory system. It improves lung function.

Keep these things in mind:
Always practice yoga in a clean environment. While it is beneficial to practice yoga in nature, due to high pollution levels outside, practice yoga indoors.

Along with yoga practice, it's also important to eat right and drink plenty of water.
If you already have a respiratory problem, consult a yoga expert or doctor before starting any new yoga practice.
