This series of Pawanmuktasana is mainly concerned with the Digestive System. The digestive system plays an important role in the health of a particular person. One is indeed fortunate if he/she has no problem with his/her digestive system. However these days almost everyone complains of Constipation, Acidity, Excess wind or gas, the loss of appetite. In this respect this group of Asanas will prove a real blessing. Yoga advocates great emphasis on the healthiness of digestive systems. These Asanas are also helpful regarding Varicose Veins, Asthma, Diabetes and even Sexual Disorders.

Points to remember:

	Remain extra cautious towards the mental counting and the muscle stretch.
	Never attempt to go for all the exercises simultaneously.
	Pause properly and feel the stretching sensation of muscles and the body parts worked upon.
	Do not proceed further till your breathing returns to normal.
	Do not even conceive the notion of advance stage asanas while you are still in the primaries.
	This is highly possible that your body may not have that much flexibility as required by the exercise.
