**Surya Namaskar**, commonly known as the Sun Salutation, is a series of yoga poses performed in a flowing sequence to honor and express gratitude to the sun. It integrates a combination of asanas (poses), pranayama (breath control), and mantras (chants) in a dynamic practice that revitalizes the body and mind. Each pose in Surya Namaskar is synchronized with the breath, promoting flexibility, strength, and mindfulness. Traditionally performed at sunrise facing the sun, Surya Namaskar serves as a holistic practice that enhances physical health, mental clarity, and spiritual awareness by harmonizing the body’s energy and aligning it with the cosmic energy of the sun.
