an open place, where fresh air is easily available like a garden terrace or verandah.
That place should be free from bad odour, mosquitoes or insects or any kind of
disturbing factors. |

4-8 A.M. is the best time, when the mind and the atmosphere are cool. Begin with

of one hour. |
| Dress
| : | Wear
loose light and clean clothes, preferable cotton. |
| Seat |

blanket or mat, etc. The seat should be full size for practicing asanas. Do not
use woolen fibers as they stick to your lips or nose. |

asana on an empty stomach. Asanas are not allowed on full stomach or after a meal.
Make sure at least 3-4 hours have passed after a meal and half an hour after a
glass of juice or any kinds of liquid. Meals such as breakfast may be taken fifteen
minutes after performing asanas. |
