Diabetes is a complex disease that can cause various health complications in the body. However, it can be managed through medication, a balanced diet and regular exercise. Doctors recommend walking for two hours daily, but some people may experience pain in their knees and find it challenging. In such cases, yoga can be a useful tool to control blood sugar levels.
Practicing three specific yogasanas regularly can help keep excess sugar in the blood under control:
1. Tarasana:

Stand up straight with your feet two inches apart. Inhale and raise your arms to shoulder level, then join your hands with your fingers and keep your palms facing outwards. Exhale and take both hands above your head. Lift your heels off the ground and balance your body on your feet. Breathe 3 to 10 times in this position and then bring your heels down. Repeat this exercise twice.

2. Vrikshasana:
Stand straight and bring your hands to your chest in a salutation position. Balance your body and bend the knee of your right leg, bringing the sole of your foot on the thigh of the left leg. Slowly straighten your spine and raise your hands evenly over your head in a Namaskar pose. Stand on one leg in this position for 30 seconds. Return to the normal position and repeat by switching legs.
3. Bhujangasana:
Lie flat on the floor and place your palms on the floor on both sides of the ribs. Keeping the ground from the waist to the feet and resting on your palms, lift the rest of your body upwards. Bend your head and look up. Hold this position for 20-30 seconds and then return to the previous position. Start by doing this asana three times and gradually increase to 5-6 times.
