Shoulder Stand
The Shoulder Stand, or Halasana, is a yoga pose that involves lying on your back and lifting your legs over your head, resting your weight on your shoulders. This position helps to improve circulation, strengthen the core, and promote relaxation. It is often practiced in yoga classes for its calming effects and potential benefits for the spine.
To perform the Shoulder Stand, begin by lying flat on your back. Lift your legs towards the ceiling, then gently roll your hips off the ground, supporting your lower back with your hands. Keep your neck relaxed and breathe deeply while holding the pose. It is important to avoid this pose if you have neck or back injuries.
