How to Do Headstand Yoga Pose


Headstand is my one my favorite yoga pose, so we are going to learn how to do this pose. This pose is like "upside down" body, the body weight, and stability on the arms and head. It needs match your breath; let the body softer and head calmer, so is known as the king of yoga postures.


For starters, it's hard to do this all at once. So, here are a few steps that you can do as long as you follow the step, and eventually you can stand on your head like the supported headstand. Also, You need to find a soft spot where your head won't hurt when you stand on your head. Also, you can use a yoga mat, a carpet, or a thick towel.


To keep your knees, arms crossed, and the left-hand grasps right elbow. Then grasp the left elbow, and the right-hand palm will cross well supporting on the floor. To remember that almost just below the jaw, and keep the body back to flat.


Next, release the left and right palms, turn the arms, and let the palms of your hands clasped in front of you. Then, bend the head down and place it between the arms of a triangle formed by the forearm.

Third, pay attention and feel your body shift. Make sure your fingers are relaxed and don't squeeze each other. Slowly shift most of your weight to the forearm between your wrist and elbow, and don't put all your weight on your head.


Try to bend your left leg close to your chest until the core muscles are tight and your right foot is only the tip of your toes. After 5 to 10 breaths, do it on the other side. 

Next step is doing this action again and again until you feel a very relaxed foot and seem to float away easily. When you do this, you will feel comfortable and your hips move forward to your shoulders, and the feeling of floating will appear.


Moreover, when the foot on the ground has easy movement; it will be folded up to the chest with the other foot. So that your knees are close to your chest and close together, and you just holding on to a few breaths.


Finally, when you feel comfortable, start slowly letting your knees go out of your chest and stretch out toward the ceiling, but keep your back, hips, and shoulders on a flat surface. Hold for several breaths in this position. The core strength of the muscle helps keep the body stable.
