Yesterday we worked on our headstands in yoga. As I rested the weight of my body and world on my head and shoulders I couldn't help but smile. I thought of my children who love to hang upside down. They are full of exuberance and happiness. Technically speaking the yoga headstand boasts the benefits of easing depression, stimulating the pituitary, toning the core and relieving the symptoms of asthma and other respiratory problems. But after a little introspection while defying gravity, I've decided I'll take the fringe benefits of feeling like a care-free six year old......... even if it's only for a moment!
