The Benefits of Headstand

An inversion is any pose in yoga, where the head is lower than the heart (opposite to when standing) and there are so many benefits to this type of posture. Headstands call for increased strength and flexibility in order to move toward it, which means that you are gaining on many levels at every step of the journey.

The masculine aspect of being is consistent and unchanging. This is about being the container, the space holder, the awareness that sits behind it all. The feminine then weaves through this structure with constant motion, the power and force that allows for all change and growth. This is where seasonal yoga is born, from an understanding that the natural world, including us, is in constant motion and therefore requires a different approach at different phases and cycles.

Immerse in Winter…

These shorter days encourage us to lean into the nights, a time for softness, steadiness, stillness. We live in a cyclical world and each season impacts the next, we save more energy in the winter and spend more in the summer. Of course, if we don’t save, we have nothing to spend.

Journaling is a very potent and accessible tool that can be harnessed for personal growth and to achieve our new intentions whilst manifesting change. Often, we are moving through life at a high speed, constantly looking forward towards the next thing. Journaling is a method of taking our foot off the accelerator pedal and tuning in to reflect on what’s been and how we’d like to grow.
