Valand	how can I relieve pain due to syringomelia a condition of spinal cord which is filled with cyst
Ismaila Singley	I have been doing this pose for years, but I did not know what to call it. LOL.
kelly hennessey	I absolutely love yoga.
Jo	Anaheartasana as in heart chakra
Berthe	I believe the Sanskrit name of this pose is Anahatasana.
Chelsea	The Sanskrit name is Anahatasana.
Sasha	does anyone have an idea of how the sanskrit is pronounced?
Kelly	I believe Shiva Rae refers to this pose as Heart to Earth. I, too, prefer that to "Puppy" since I don't think there is a real Sanskrit name for this asana.
more	At lease two photos of the action would help to proper proform workout.
Hazel	Lizard pose is a hip-opener (google on it). Shishosana is bad sanskrit, I think. I think it's supposed to be shishu + asana but that should be shishuvasana, not shishosana. And shishu doesn't mean puppy anyway, it's just a baby animal. There is no Sanskrit for puppy. So it's a baby stretch.
