Perform Sura-Namaskara (Sun Salutations)
Sun is the God of vitality. He is the life giver and giver of warmth. He is the energy giver to us. Remember when you burn fuel in your car, that petrolium comes from fossils from millions of years ago. These fossils themselves were trees and animals which stored those hydrocarbons in their body by consuming water and food and with the help of sunlight. All energy comes from Sun and every ATOM in this universe is forged in the heart of some star like Sun.
Sun salutations is well known exercise and involved 13 steps that give a workout to every part of your body in a short span of time.
What most people miss about sun salutation however is the mantras. When performing these asanas (postures) you must absolutely remember what they are. Paying respect to the Sun. The god who gives us energy. Always perform it in the morning or evening while sun is still in the sky. Then always face the direction of sun. If you can actually feel the sun rays that is even better.
