At the end of the breath, pull in your buttocks, contract stomach muscles and place your head between your arms. It is recommended that you repeat this yoga exercise five times.
Parvatasana means mountain yoga position which helps to Strengthen nerves and muscles in your arms and legs, and stimulates the circulation in the upper spine.
