Remember:

• Remain extra cautious towards the mental counting and the muscle stretch. Never attempt to go for all the exercises simultaneously and pause properly and feel the stretching sensation of muscles and the body parts worked upon.

• Do not proceed further till your breathing returns to normal and not even conceive the notion of advance stage asanas while you are still in the primaries. This is highly possible that your body may not have that much flexibility as required by the exercise.

• One cannot master these asanas in just one go, only sustained and regular practices can be helpful. The most important fact in this regard is that; retain your faith and devotion towards Yoga. Pretty soon you will realize how amply you have been rewarded for this supreme confidence.
