Yoga Every Damn Day – As a part of A to Z April Blogging challenge, I am going to post a series of Yoga poses. Don’t worry I will keep it simple and crisp… and try not to make it boring. {All pictures are mine, clicked by my dear husband}
Camatkarasana or Wild Thing Pose
This is my absolute favorite pose. It works on my back, giving it a pleasant stretch, opens up my heart and shoulders. I even love the name – Wild Thing. I stay in this pose till I start feeling a stretch in my wrists, reminding myself not to overdo it, no matter how much I love it.
My ultimate goal is to go from Wild Thing Pose to Wheel Pose.
Benefits: “Wild Thing opens the chest, lungs, and shoulder areas. It opens the front of the legs and hip flexers and helps build strengthen in the shoulders and upper back.”

Oh My God! That surely looks wild but you do it with so ease!
You look so graceful and elegant, Raj. I could never hope to do any of these – too old and arthritic – but I commend you. ☺
aww thank you so much Debbie 😀
Wow! superb as ever!
thank you Parul 😀
Lovely photos and pose. Looks so gentle to be a wild thing but if I were to try it I'd feel pretty wild. OUCH! You're amazingly flexible how you can do all those moves. You should put a book together of all those photos with the instructions. Bet it would be a winner. You could sell it to yoga enthusiasts.
hahah it does feel wild while trying it 🙂 hahaha sure maybe one day 😀 thank you
The name says wild, but to me it looks like it put you at peace! the mudra and the pose is wonderful!
thank you 😀
Hmmm..the wild thing doesn't look like an easy thing. Beautiful pics as always. 🙂
