HEADSTAND [Sirsasana]
Headstand is considered one of the most important and powerful yogic postures. It brings a rejuvenating blood flow to the brain, stimulating biochemical and hormonal balance. By turning your world upside down, you give your life new perspective. From Downward Facing Dog, bring your knees to the floor, then bring your forearms to the floor. Bring each hand to the opposite bicep in order to establish the correct distance between your elbows, which should be directly under your shoulders. Interlace your fingers fully, including the thumbs. Form your hands into the shape they would be if they were holding a tennis ball. The bottom of both little fingers should be the foundation of the cup that you've formed with your hands. Make sure that the overall shape of your forearms and hands is a symmetrical, equilateral triangle. Never place your head on the floor without first establishing the correct arm position. Press your arms downward and lift your shoulders upward and away from each other, broadening your upper back. Place the crown of your head on the floor with your skull up against the cup formed by your hands. Gaze straight ahead at your knees and lift your tail. Push up on the balls of your feet and straighten your knees, walking your feet toward your head until your hips are stacked over your shoulders and the back of your body forms a vertical line from your head to your hips.
When the weight of your body comes straight down through the center of the crown of your head, the pose will feel effortless and weightless, and there will be no strain on your neck. Pause here and get used to the feel of this position. Exhale and bring your knees into your chest, pushing your legs up off the floor. Tuck your heels toward your buttocks, press your arms and shoulders down into the mat. Straighten your knees and bring your whole body into a vertical line, drawing your abdominals inward and rotating engaged thighs in. Hold for ten to twenty breaths, keeping your gaze straight ahead.
Advance by going into eagle legs, half lotus or lotus.
KATIE HURST
The way I would describe my life today is much different then how I would have described it four months ago. Four months ago I was just another heroin addict in rehab. I was addicted to heroin for about six years of my life and had come to a place in my disease where I was sick, spent, miserable and so tired of running. This was a place of complete spiritual void, disconnected from others and life. Within a few days in treatment I realized the blessing that treatment got me clean, I wasn't using, but now what?? Around this time Brooke and Indigo came into the center and into my life. I was so inspired that the staff would come in and volunteer to help those in need. I was immediately attracted to yoga, the staff and Brooke all had a sense of peace and love that I envied. I loved the class and would look forward to it all week. I was hooked... I loved that I was reaching straight up in mountain pose, reaching for something greater then myself and appreciating it. I loved the way they would describe facing my palms up as an invitation for this greatness to enter your heart. I began to look at the practice and realized that that's exactly what yoga is to me, a way to practice a certain way of life. Today I try to carry this way of peace and love with me wherever I go. I tell whoever will listen to try it, try yoga! If you feel like you are searching for something, you may not even know what "it" is, try yoga. My experience started with, well why not I have nothing to loose...and this helped me realize how much I had to gain. It was the face of love and peace. It was yoga for me. Whatever it maybe for you, or has been for you I hope that peace and love is found, that your able to lift your arms to the sky with an open heart, open mind and just breathe...
