Surya Namaskar (Sun Salutation)

Surya Namaskar is an excellent yoga practice that can be performed at any time of the day. However, the optimal time is at sunrise, as exposure to the sun activates the solar plexus, thereby enhancing its benefits. Here’s how to perform Surya Namaskar correctly:

Stand straight facing the sun.

Take a deep breath and step your left leg back.

Bend your right leg forward.

Tilt your head back, place both palms on the ground, and gaze towards the sky.

Inhale deeply, then exhale and step your right leg back.

Trikonasana (Triangle Pose)

Trikonasana is another effective pose that helps in enhancing male potency. Here are the steps to perform Trikonasana:

Stand straight and twist your body to the left.

Slide your left hand under your left foot, letting your fingers reach up to your knee.

Lean your body to the left.

Maintain this posture with your knees and elbows straight.

Pelvic Floor Exercises

Pelvic floor exercises are crucial for strengthening the muscles that support the bladder, intestines, and uterus. Here is a basic method to perform these exercises:

Lie flat on the ground.

Take a deep breath.

Stretch your legs, bringing them straight up to your chest.

For more tailored exercises, consulting a pelvic floor physiotherapist is advisable.
