I do the shoulder stand for 30 minutes everyday and so far it hasn’t helped with insomnia. I wish it did. If anything I feel energized after 10-30 min. in this pose. I’m only 73 so I can work on trying it for insomnia a few more years till the big sleep. Whatever that is. I used the floor for this but I find a bed more comfortable with the same effect AFAIK using the ss.
owh! omg that looks like it hurts!
Sooo, does this actually work?
Any inversions can create pressure in the head, and raise blood pressure, particularly the eyes; in shoulderstand bcause of the position of the head and neck, this effect can be amplified.
I have glaucoma and I’m curious as to why I should need doctors permission? Have been doing the Bikram series for about 4 years on and off…have I unknowingly put myself at some extra risk? Thank you for the vid…Namaste.
Thanks for your yoga it has really helped me.
Yeah, I can see how that just might be a problem if you were pregnant.

For better form, and in order not to harm the ligaments of the thumb, the thumb should be in line with the other fingers along the back. Also, for more support, the elbows can rest on the blanket, in other words the blanket should be a platform for the upper arm.
