I know you’ve been wondering where I had disappeared but I think we all needed some time to ourselves. Locked down at home has made us closer to ourselves, physically and mentally. But I think a lot of us have embraced it and adjusted our lives around this ‘new normal’ and a lot of you have been asking me what I’m doing at home, how I’m staying regular at my workouts.".

How to do Halaasan?

  • Lie on your back with your palms facing the ground
  • Take a deep breath in and with that exhale, press your palms into the floor and raise your legs towards the ceiling
  • For added support, you can place your hands on your lower back
  • You can also bend your knees if you’re losing balance
  • Slowly & gradually, try touching your feet to the ground behind
  • Breathe slowly. To come out of the post, slowly release your hands from your back and bring your feet flat on the ground

There are also a number of yoga postures which can be performed before Halaasan to prepare the body for this complex posture. These include Poorva Halasana or the preliminary plough pose, Sarvangasana and Setu Bandhasana. Similarly, there are some yoga postures which can be done post-Halaasan for added benefits like Bhujangasana and Pavanamuktasana. 

Benefits of Halaasan

  • It strengthens and opens up the neck, shoulders, abs and back muscles
  • It calms the nervous system and reduces stress and fatigue
  • It tones the legs and improves the flexibility in the legs
  • It stimulates the thyroid gland and strengthens the immune system of the body
  • It helps women who are going through menopause
