[[File:Shavasana.jpgpng|thumb|right|''Shavasana'']]
The name comes from the Sanskrit words Shava (शव, Śava) meaning "corpse", and Asana (आसन, Āsana) meaning "posture" or "seat".
The asana is released by slowly deepening the breath, flexing the fingers and toes, reaching the arms above the head, stretching the whole body, exhaling, bringing the knees to the chest and rolling over to the side in a fetal position.
== Benefit ==
It is intended to rejuvenate body, mind, and spirit.
