Yoga - Headstand Intermediate - part of the women's fitness video series by GeoBeats. Today I am going to show you an intermediate variation of the headstand. Headstand benefits the entire body. It is considered a complete pose. It is a pose that prepares the mind for meditation, and also meditation can be done while in this posture. So, let’s start toward the center of the mat, elbows no wider than the shoulders are. Make the hands into a hard helmet to support the back of the head. Then place the crown of the head on the floor or a little bit toward the center, but never roll onto the back of the head. Tuck the toes under, lift the seat. Walk the feet closer and closer to the body until they feel very light. Then you will be able to lift them straight up toward the ceiling. When you arrive at the top, almost feel that you are falling back a little bit and you will be exactly on the top of the head. Close the eyes and concentrate on the space between the eyebrows. To come out, lower the legs slowly down toward the mat. Then rest in child’s pose for a few breaths, allowing the blood pressure to normalize. Then come out.
