I did it! It used to be ever so much easier. But then I stopped trying for too long. I’m so grateful I decided to take this back on. Very glad I did.

Let’s practice together. Yoga isn’t about hardstanding. Breath work is more important honestly. And I’m a Breath Coach, which is hugely important at any age.

Handstand Project

Sanskrit Name & Meaning: The Sanskrit name for Handstand is Adho Mukha Vrksasana (Ah-doh MOO-kah Vrik-SHAH-suh-nuh) is “Downward-Facing Tree “ 

  1. Benefits of Handstanding! 
  2. Beyond just looking awesome, handstands pack a serious punch for your body and mind:
  3. Full-Body Powerhouse: They’re incredible for building major upper body and core strength – we’re talking shoulders, arms, wrists, and every single core muscle.
  4. Balance Boss: Handstands are the ultimate balance challenge, honing your proprioception (your body’s awareness in space) and focus. It’s like a superpower for your nervous system!
  5. Mood & Perspective Flip: Being upside down literally shifts your perspective, which can be invigorating and even mood-boosting. It’s tough to stay stressed when you’re defying gravity! Plus, increased blood flow to the brain can enhance alertness and focus.
  6. Bone Density Booster: As a weight-bearing exercise, handstands can contribute to stronger bones, especially in your wrists and arms, which is awesome as we gracefully ‘get old’!
