Many of the yoga asana reflect the movements of animals. Through observation, the rishis understood how animals live in harmony with their environment and with their own bodies. They understood, through experience, the effects of a particular posture and how the hormonal secretions could be stimulated and controlled by it. For example, by imitating the rabbit in shashankasana (child’s pose) they could influence the flow of adrenaline responsible for the “fight or flight” mechanism. Through imitating animal postures, the rishis found they could maintain health and meet the challenges of nature for themselves.
