{{short description|A hand-balancing posture in modern yoga}}{{IndicText}}

Tulasana ({{lang-sa|तुलासन}}; IAST: Tulāsana), Balance Pose,[1] Dolasana (Swing Pose),[2] Tolasana (Scale Pose),[3][4] or Utthita Padmasana (Raised Lotus Pose)[5] is a hand-balancing asana in modern yoga.

Etymology and origins

The name comes from the Sanskrit words tula (तुला) meaning "balance",[6] and asana (आसन, āsana) meaning "posture" or "seat".[7]

The pose is not described in the medieval hatha yoga texts. It appears in the 20th century in Swami Yogesvarananda's 1970 First Steps to Higher Yoga (spelt Tulasana),[8] and in B. K. S. Iyengar's 1966 Light on Yoga (spelt Tolasana).[9]

Description

From Padmasana (lotus position), the practitioner with the palms placed on the floor either side of the hips raises the entire torso and crossed legs using the arms and shoulders.

Benefits

The asana strengthens the back, shoulders, and hips.[10]

Contraindications and cautions

The asana should not be practiced with current or recent shoulder or wrist injuries.[11]
