PREPARE WITH PROPER WARM-UP

Practice stretching and breathing exercises to warm up your muscles, prevent strain, as well as sharpen your focus.

EXERCISE ON AN EVEN, DRY SURFACE

This will help make sure you are on a mat that helps prevent slipping. A non-skid surface lessens any chances of getting hurt as well and is useful to hold while maintaining balance in the posture.

USE YOUR FOREARMS FOR SUPPORT

Rest your forearms solidly on the ground for support. Correct arm placement allows you to balance your body weight properly and helps protect your neck.

ENGAGE YOUR CORE MUSCLES

Stabilise your body by core up and get it activated while you lift those legs. If you have a strong core, the body is in better balance and control which makes it less likely to fall.

LIFT YOUR LEGS

Raise your legs slowly to avoid jerky or sudden movements. Because it helps improve balance and health, controlled leg lifts will make your headstand work even better.

30–60 SECOND HOLD

From here you can pause at the top of your headstand for 30-60 seconds Hold for between 30 and 60 seconds to improve blood flow to the scalp.

STUDY FINDINGS

The National Institutes of Health (NIH) from a study claims that raised scalp blood flow tends to boost the expansion of hair.

LOWER YOUR LEGS

Slowly, and carefully place the legs back on the mat. The way that you come out of the pose is just as important as ensuring a safe exit.
