Viparita karani is a very dif-ficult pose. To do it correctly, one must have a flexible pelvis zone. Actually it is a half-inverted, half-strengthening pose. <\/span><\/p>\n

Starting position.<\/strong> Lying on the back. <\/span><\/p>\n

Technique.<\/strong> Lift your feet in the way that your toes reach the level of your nose, pelvis isn\u2019t tak-en off the floor.\u00a0<\/span>The back must be straight, legs are also straight at a angle of approximately 70\u00ba at your body, the coccyx lying on the floor, no \u00abarching\u00bb in the back. It\u2019s a half-inverted strengthening pose.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Effect and action.<\/strong> This pose tightens the field in the anterior part of Svadhishthana, pushing the energy up the anterior-middle channel. This effect is achieved, only if the back is perfectly straight and horizon-tal. Viparita karani does the same effect on women as nauli on men \u0432\u0402\u201d makes the sexual energy (its etheric constituent) rise. It can be useful as a way of curing frustration, caused by sexual dissatisfaction.<\/p>\n

Shirshasana is one of the most important pos-tures in yoga, rejuvenating all the body. However it should be practiced only after all the problems with neck osteochondrosis are cured (the best practice for it are sarpasana and pivoting poses), because other-wise it can provoke vertebra jamming. <\/span><\/p>\n

Shirshasana isn\u2019t always easy to do. To master it one shouldn\u2019t be afraid to fall on the back, and for this it\u2019s helpful to practice somersaults. <\/span><\/p>\n

Starting position.<\/strong> In vadjrasana rest on the top of the head, put your hands on the nape (fingers overlap, but aren\u2019t crossed). <\/span><\/p>\n

Technique.<\/strong> Straighten you back, feet coming to your head, unbending your knees. Take your feet off the floor and carefully straighten them. <\/span><\/p>\n

Effect and action.<\/strong> Shirshasana redistributes the blood in cavities of the body and makes it come to the head, if the neck isn\u2019t jammed in the exercise. The feeling of energy \u00abcoming\u00bb into the head is the sign that asana can be finished. Besides in this posture the muscles, responsible for balance are also energized. Which group of them \u2014 depends on the bearing area, i.e. on how hands are placed (for more details see chapter \u00abAsanas boosters\u00bb).<\/span>.<\/p>\n
