Sirshasana  : The Headstand That Will Make You Feel Amazing

Sirshasana, also known as the headstand, is a classic yoga pose that is said to have many benefits for both the mind and body. It is an inverted pose, which means that the head is lower than the feet. This inversion reverses the flow of blood in the body, which can have a number of positive effects.

 The Benefits of Sirshasana

Some of the benefits of Sirshasana include:

1.Improved circulation

2. Increased energy levels

3.Reduced stress

4.Improved focus and concentration

5. Increased flexibility

6.Strengthened neck and shoulders

7.Improved digestion

8.Boosted immune system

9.Improved balance

10.The Risks of Sirshasana

 While Sirshasana has many benefits, it is important to be aware of the risks before attempting it. These risks include:

1.Headaches

2.Dizziness

3.Nausea

4.Lightheadedness

5.Neck pain

6.Shoulder pain

7. Injury to the spine

 How to Do Sirshasana

Preparation

Before attempting Sirshasana, it is important to warm up your body. This can be done by doing some light stretches, such as cat-cow pose or sun salutations. You should also make sure that you are in a well-ventilated area and that you have a yoga mat to protect your head.

Entry

To enter Sirshasana, start by kneeling on your mat with your hands shoulder-width apart. Place your forearms on the mat, with your fingers interlaced. Then, slowly lift your knees up off the mat, one at a time. Once your knees are off the mat, straighten your legs and lift your hips up. Your body should now be in a straight line from your head to your heels.

  Maintaining the Pose

Once you are in the pose, try to relax your body and breathe deeply. You may want to keep your eyes closed to help you focus. Hold the pose for as long as you are comfortable, and then slowly lower yourself back down to the mat.

Exit

To exit the pose, slowly bend your knees and lower your hips down to the mat. Once your hips are on the mat, gently lower your legs down.

 Common Mistakes to Avoid

Some common mistakes to avoid when doing Sirshasana include:

1. Not warming up properly

2. Not using a yoga mat

3.Lifting your head up too high

4. Arching your back

5. Locking your knees

6. Putting too much weight on your head

7. Modifications for Beginners

 If you are a beginner, there are a few modifications that you can make to make Sirshasana easier. These modifications include:

1.Placing your hands on a wall instead of the mat

2.Using a chair to support your legs

3.Doing a supported headstand against a wall

4. Advanced Variations of Sirshasana

 Once you have mastered the basic version of Sirshasana, you can try some advanced variations. These variations include:

1.Handstand

2.Tripod headstand

3.Shoulder stand

4.Forearm stand

 Conclusion

Sirshasana is a challenging but rewarding yoga pose. If you are looking for a pose that can improve your circulation, energy levels, and focus, then Sirshasana is a great option. However, it is important to be aware of the risks before attempting this pose. If you are a beginner, it is best to start with modifications and then gradually work your way up to the full pose.

If you would like to learn how to do Jānu Śīrṣāsana A (Head and Knee Pose) from the Ashtanga Yoga Primary Series, watch on for variations and the full expression of this seated yoga pose.

Janu Sirsasana A is my all-time favorite posture in the Ashtanga Yoga Primary Series sequence, because it feels so good to take on your own or get an adjustment in.  You achieve a wonderful stretch in your hamstring, back, hips and side body. You also begin learning how to incorporate concepts of tensegrity in more subtle ways, to ground your body as you begin to hinge forward in the posture. Keep at it. Your at-home yoga practice is progressing. Wholeness awaits. 

 In today’s yoga video tutorial, we will explore three variations of this asana to help you work your way to the full expression without rounding your lower back, overstretching your hamstrings, losing your active engagement, and more.  Don’t feel a need to rush to the full expression by forcing yourself to fold, when your body is yearning for more opening.  And do savor the five breaths you take in Janu Sirsasana A. This posture is food for your body and soul.  Try to be contemplative when you take this pose, and connect with your breathing and bandhas.  Know that the more you take the posture, the more comfortable you’ll become with it.
