Benefits of Siddhasana


Siddhasana is said to stimulate sexual energy. Additionally it is good for the reproductive organs and the gynecological system.

Whenever you feel tired in the pose and feel strain in your legs, exchange them by putting the right foot below the left one or the other way around.

When to Avoid Siddhasana

If you have knee problems, pain and weakness in the knees or if your ligaments are worn or torn, you should avoid this position. If you are in doubt, please consult your doctor or physiotherapist and let your yoga teacher know about it.
