 The word “GO” in Sanskrit means cow. And Mukha means face. Therefore in this asana the parted thighs resemble to the cows lips and the arms placed up and down resemble to cow’s ears. Therefore it is known as the Gomukhasana. This asana thus can be performed as follows;
- Sit in Dandasana or the staff pose.
- Now bending your knees place your feet on the floor.
- Now slide your left foot under the right knee to the outside of the right hip. Then cross your right leg over the left placing the right knee over the top of the left and bring the right foot to the outside of the left hip.
- Breathe in or inhale stretching your right arm straight out to the right, parallel to the floor. Rotating your right arm inwardly, with the thumb turning first towards the floor, then pointing towards the floor and then pointing towards the wall behind you with your palm facing the ceiling.
- This movement shall roll your right shoulder slightly up and forwards.
- Now fully breathing out sweep the arm behind your torso tucking the forearm in the hollow of your back parallel to the waist with right elbow against the right side of the torso. Now work the forearm up your back until it is parallel to your spine, and the back of your hands is in between the shoulder blades.
- Breathing in stretch your left arm straight forwards pointing towards the opposite wall, parallel to the floor.
- Turn your palm stretching the arm straight up towards the ceiling.
- Lifting your arm up and bending the elbow reach down for the right hand. And hook up the right and left fingers.
- When hooked together lift the left elbow towards the ceiling descending the right elbow towards the floor.
- Maintain this posture for about a minute.
- Then release the arms and uncross the legs and repeat with the arms and legs reversed for the same duration of time.
