My love for and journey into yoga was primarily sparked by Instagram. I started following so many yoga accounts to keep myself inspired to practice and learn more. What really intrigued me most at first (besides splits) was nailing Headstand. Ahh the illusive headstand. I think as a child I played around with doing headstands but never really held one or knew how to properly do so. To my surprise, I found headstand to be relatively easy. Of course it got easier over time as I realized what worked best for me and was better for my body. With that said, if you do try this- please consult with a doctor or try at your own risk. I personally have never had any serious injury while attempting to do headstand, but that doesn’t mean others haven’t.
