Coach in MuktaHastaSirsasana (Free Handed Headstand). Widely pointed toward as one of the most vital postures to set up the inner energetics toward Enlightenment, Sirsasana is highly medicinal from a physiologic perspective as well. Improved blood pressure, enhanced respiration, increased peripheral development of the venous and arterial systems, cranial oxygenation (which is why standing on your head makes you smarter and faster to 'connect the dots' between the physical and metaphysical planes) and an unmatched conditioner for the neural systems, Sirsasana is also used by the Yogin as a superb postural deviation diagnostic tool...at least, that is what i use this pose for! When standing on my head with the inner locks (see DL Archives for Mula Bandha, Uddiyana, and Jalandhara research) activated, i immediately can read the structural distortion nested in my hips; both long term (karmic/birth/adolescence) and short term (as in compaction from recent running, cycling, climbing, etc).
However, i have also noted another interesting component about doing Inversion practices...they make me funny as hell...jokes come to me in my apres-Sirsasana that just crack my ass up!...like this one which came to me yesterday...
