We'll look at six yoga poses in this post that, when regularly practiced, can help strengthen your heart, increase circulation, and support a healthy cardiovascular system.

5.  Bhujangasana (Cobra Pose)
Cobra Pose helps to improve posture and lung capacity by gradually toning the shoulders and back muscles. Its heart-opening properties promote circulation, which helps the body's tissues and essential organs receive oxygen.


6. Savasana (Corpse Pose)
Savasana is a resting position that eases tension and stress, two things that might worsen cardiac problems. You can promote a slower heart rate, lower blood pressure, and a general feeling of calm by engaging in deep relaxation exercises.
