Reverse prayer known as Pashchima Namaskarasana can be added on to many different asanas to add variety or create an extra layer to the pose. Using the reverse prayer variation for mountain pose helps increase flexibility in the arms, shoulders, upper back, and chest. It can be used to gently open the chest to ready the body for deeper back bends, helps release tension in the upper body, and promotes correct postural alignment.
Avoid this position if you suffer from shoulder or wrist injuries. Use this position with caution if you have low blood pressure or suffer headaches.
