    Wedge Posture

    Sit down on the floor with your legs outstretched, feet
    together. Place your hands behind you, palms down, and your
    fingers pointing away from your body.
    Adjust the position of your hands according to your
    personal build and capacities and then raise your body, keeping
    it as straight as possible until you're resting on your heels and
    your hands. Your body is now shaped like a wedge. Remain as this
    for a few seconds, and then relax. Repeat three or four times.
    Remember to perform the Wedge Posture if you feel any tension
    in your muscles after a forward bending exercise. It stretches,
    Umbers, and strengthens the lumbar region and its ligaments.
    And now here is something new for you to try if you have sciatica. Tone up your sciatic nerve first with the Forward Bend, loosen those knotted muscles with the Wedge Posture and then sit down to do the GOMUKASANA or BULL POSTURE.
    Many Yoga asanas are named after animals and it's usually easy to observe why, but wherefore the Bull posture? If you will look at figure 23 probably it will explain. My feet are arranged on either side of me rather like the horns of a bull don’t you think ? This Sanskrit name is sometimes translated as Cow-Face Posture, but I feel that aesthetically it's all wrong to give this rather graceful posture such a name. Still names are not that important. What matters is to relieve your sciatica, so let us begin.
