Sthitaprarthanasana

This asana is corrective and remedial in nature for boosting physical coordination and balance as well as promotes mental poise and spiritual elevation. This seemingly simple posture, however, makes you acutely aware of the importance of sense faculties such as sight and breath. As in this case, you will observe that as soon as you close your eyes the body will sway a little and you will need to manage your breath in a subtle way to steady it.
-Stand erect keeping your hands at your sides and your feet together. Check that your abdomen is held slightly inwards or in normal contour, your pelvis gently tucked in, chest lifted slightly but shoulders relaxed.
-Gaze at any one point straight ahead, keeping your mind calm and body relaxed. 

-Fold both your hands in namaskara mudra and place them in front of your chest. -Keep your shoulders and elbows relaxed. 
-Close your eyes and observe your breath or fix your gaze at any 
one point. 
-Stay in the position for at least five minutes, taking it up to ten 
minutes. The aim is to hold your body motionless not allowing it to sway when your eyes are closed. 
-Slowly open your eyes and gently lower your hands to assume the starting position.
-Maintain your mental calm for as long as possible.
The asana aids stance through coordination of the neuroskeletal system and increases physical steadiness arises through control over the voluntary muscular movement. It helps in calming ones mind and relaxing the nerves, simultaneously improving concentration.
