The proper execution and continual practice of the tadasana along with other postures helps to re-train the body to stand correctly and reverse the negative effects of poor posture. When the tad-asana is performed properly and the mind is focused and free of distraction, the body is experienced as being rooted firmly to the earth and as steady and motionless as a mountain.


Hold position for several minutes. The Tadasana is recommended prior to and following any other standing posture.
