Inverted yoga prevents internal organs from sagging

In people's daily life, almost all of them are carried out in an upright posture. Under the influence of gravity, human organs will have a falling effect, leading to diseases such as stomach, cardiovascular and bone and joint. Appropriate handstands have certain curative effects on treating low back pain, sciatica and arthritis. Let's take a look at the practice of handstand yoga.

Long-term upright ills:

1. The circulation of blood changes from horizontal to vertical, which causes insufficient blood supply to the brain and overloading the cardiovascular system. The mild ones suffer from baldness, blurred vision, gray hair, lack of energy, fatigue, and premature aging; the severe ones suffer from brain diseases and heart diseases.

2. The heart and stomach move downward due to gravity. Causes many diseases of the gastrointestinal and heart organs, causing fat accumulation in the abdomen and thighs, resulting in waist line and abdominal obesity.

3. Under the action of gravity, the muscles in the neck, shoulders, back, waist and other parts will bear more load, causing excessive tension, and causing aggravation of diseases such as muscle strain, cervical spine, lumbar spine, and scapulohumeral periarthritis. To overcome the shortcomings in human evolution, drugs alone cannot do. We can only rely on physical exercise, and the best exercise method is to stand on the human body.

Benefits of headstand

1. Send blood to the head to eliminate fatigue, activate brain cells, and make the mind clear.

2. Activate the pituitary gland, pineal gland, thyroid gland, etc., increase the hemoglobin in the blood, and strengthen systemic functions.

3. Enhance memory and concentration. Improve insomnia and headaches.

4. Help digestion and treat constipation. The heart can rest while standing upside down, reducing palpitations and reducing the chance of catching colds, coughs and tonsillitis.

5. Turning the body upside down can prevent sagging of internal organs, delay aging, and increase spirit and ambition.

6. Enhance self-confidence and strengthen arms, shoulders, abdomen and back, which is helpful for practicing the "BaCKbends".

common mistakes

1. The waist, abdomen and even feet are not tightened and straightened.

2. Beginners only use their heads to bear all the weight of the body.

3. The distance between the elbows is too wide, which prevents the shoulders and back from exerting force, and also makes the head bear all the weight of the body, which may lead to neck injury.

4. Tilt your head to one side. When standing upside down against the wall, press against the wall from your back to your hips. This means that there is no force on the shoulders and back, which can lead to neck injury.

reiterate once again

Beginners can use the wall to assist or practice the "headstand" with protection: Make sure your double-buckled hands kneel 20 centimeters away from the wall. Follow the above steps and do not rush to stretch your legs. Women suffering from high blood pressure, heart disease, retinal detachment, distortion of the cervical and spine, and women during physiological periods should avoid doing "headstand". Doing it immediately after your period can help balance hormone secretions.

Yoga headstand--

Headstand Sirsa means "head" and Salamba means "support". "Headstand pose" is known as the "king of yoga postures". When standing upside down, blood flows back to the head to better nourish the facial skin; because it has many benefits to both body and mind, many people flock to it and want to try it before getting faster; but more people stay away from it, either afraid of falling or thinking that it will cause "brain congestion"! In fact, as long as the key points of balance can be grasped, it is not as dangerous and difficult as it seems.

Warm reminder:

"Head stand" is still dangerous for beginners in yoga. What should I do if I dare not do it but want to use yoga methods that are close to nature to beauty? Don't worry! Half-head stand with your feet on the ground also has good cosmetic effects! The most important thing is that it is safe! And it's not difficult at all!

Notes:

1. Those suffering from high blood pressure, heart disease, retinal detachment, and distortion of the cervical and spinal vertebrae, and those with low blood pressure should not do this position at the beginning.

2. Women during menstruation should avoid doing "headstand". But doing it immediately after your period can help balance hormone secretions.

3. Do not move your head at will, otherwise you may easily sprain your cervical spine. This pose is best performed under the guidance of a yoga instructor.

4. After completing the "headstand pose", please immediately do the "children's pose" as a resting position. Beginners can rest for a long period of time. This can keep the brain and heart in a horizontal position and return blood pressure to normal. (Internship Editor: Wu Jinyu)
