Points to remember:
Remain extra cautious towards the mental counting and the muscle stretch.
Never attempt to go for all the exercises simultaneously.
Pause properly and feel the stretching sensation of muscles and the body parts worked upon.
Do not proceed further till your breathing returns to normal.
Do not even conceive the notion of advance stage asanas while you are still in the primaries.
This is highly possible that your body may not have that much flexibility as required by the exercise.
