Practice:
Sit in Padmasana. >Place the fingertips on the floor far enough away from the body so that the knees will not touch the arms with the swinging of the body. >Raise the body so that the body weight is carried on the fingers only. If this position can be held well, then swing the body 10 times forwards and backwards between the arms. >Breathe quietly and regularly. >Return to the starting position and perform the Asana once more.

Benefits:
Strengthens the finger, arm, shoulder and trunk muscles.

Caution:
This Asana should not be practiced if it causes pain in the finger joints.
