ऎकपाद प्रसरणासन

Eka-pada Prasaranasana (The Lunge)

It's one of those words that Peter Thomson would describe as "a kid knowing full well how to spell 'banana' but not knowing when to stop."

This posture stretches the small intestine and the seminal vesicles.

With regular practice, The Lunge helps in correcting constipation and diseases of the liver. Thinness of the semen is also adjusted. Diseases of the throat are also relieved.
