In Ayurveda, Dhanurasana is considered a stimulating pose that can aggravate certain conditions, especially those related to Vata and Pitta doshas. It's essential to consult an Ayurvedic doctor or yoga expert to determine if this pose is suitable for your individual constitution and health status.
Ayurvedic principles emphasize the importance of balancing the doshas and maintaining harmony in the body. If you have any underlying health conditions or concerns, it's crucial to take necessary precautions and modifications or avoid the pose altogether to avoid exacerbating the condition.
