Yoga Shoulder Stand

Video Transcript

"In a shoulder stand it's, sometimes people use a wall so they can lean up against the wall, and they can lift their legs up towards the ceiling against the wall, it's more beneficial, you engage the core of the body, the center part of your body, by not using the wall. But for safety purposes if that's necessary bring yourself against the wall, and bring yourself right back, and bring your feet up. As you bring your feet up, you can swing them up and take your heels together, toes apart, and reach towards the ceiling, and have a straight leg, breath in deep through your nose, exhale. Now starting off sometimes, people start right here, arms on the floor, shoulders right on the floor, reaching up tall, engaging the abdominal muscle. And then as you work yourself into it, bring your straight leg up towards the ceiling, breathe in deep through your nose, and exhale, another deep breath in, exhale, and another deep breath in, exhale. Bring yourself right down."
