Padahastasana, or the standing forward bend (literally feet to hands pose), is the eleventh posture in the sequence of 12 basic postures of hatha yoga. It is an inverted posture which provides many of the same benefits of the seated forward bend: the main physical benefit is to stretch the entire backside of the body from the head to the heels.

Physical Benefits :

-Stretches the hamstrings on the back of the legs
-Stretches and lengthens the entire spine
-Massages the internal organs, especially the digestive organs
-Relieves digestive problems such as constipation
-Relieves problems with sciatica
-Invigorates the nervous system
-Increases the supply of blood to the brain
-Removes flesh from the abdomen
