The Headstand


 

Sirsasana
Considered from the Yogi the "King of Asana" because of its prodigious benefits, the Headstand is the first of the 12 asana and is considered by many to be a panacea for countless human ills. It regenerates the body and the mind. Re-establish a perfect equilibrium between negative and positive energy.

Sitting and standing for most of the day causes your circulation to become sluggish, so your heart has to work harder to pump sufficient blood to the upper parts of your body.
Normally, your heart works against gravity; inverting your entire body lessens the strain on your heart, and allows a plentiful supply of oxygen-rich blood to reach your head and brain.

Headstand, and other inverted poses, increase circulation, stimulate the brain, enhance glandular system functioning, and relieve pressure on the abdominal organs.
