Physio-Anatomical exploration of Shirshasana and its benefits in the body
Yoga, Asanas, Shirshasana, Inversion.
The word ‘Yoga’ is derived from Sanskrit root ‘Yuj’ which means ‘to join’ or ‘to yok’. The union of individual self Jivatma, with the universal self Paramatma is Yoga. Yoga is performed through some specific postures called Asanas. The benefits of Asanas range from physical to spiritual level. Asanas not only tone the muscles, ligaments, joints and nerves but also maintains the smooth functioning and health of entire body. Sirshasana is considered by some to be the most important inversion and is often referred to as the “king” of Asanas. This full inversion returns blood to the heart and the brain, refreshing the cardiovascular and lymphatic system and providing energizing effects for the whole body.The inverted position of the body alters the anatomy and physiology of the body at various levels.
