The Triyaka Tadasana is a lateral stretch. It stimulates the lesser used muscles of the body, by stretching the side muscles. There is a complete stretch from the legs right up to the arms.

Steps:
1) Stand with feet around 2 to 3 feet apart.
2) With inhalation take the hands above your head and lock the fingers.
3) Now with exhalation stretch to your right. Try to bend as much as possible towards your waist.
4) Stay for around 10 breaths and with inhalation come back to original position.
5) Now repeat the same towards the left side.
6) Repeat the entire steps for 5 times.
7) With exhalation bring the hands down.
