​

Before you start with any asana or breathing exercise, it is always advised to start with a warm-up yoga.  

​

Vibaritha Karani ( also known as the Half Shoulder Stand Pose) is one among the other liedown poses.

Benefits:

• It gives you relaxation and relieves stress with the regular practice of this asana.

• It increases blood circulation to head parts so that brain cell gets energized enormously.

• The pose is good for leg, feet and varicose vein disorders.

• It tones your shoulders, arm, neck, lower back as well as hamstrings.

How to do?

• Lie down on the floor, keep your hands near the thigh. Breath-in lift your legs upright and support your back by your arms by keeping the upper arm firmly on the ground.

• Don't lock the chin with your chest. Allow your legs to stand straight (90 deg) angle to the ground. 

• Feel the body weight on to the hands and continue breath-in & out. 

• If you are comfortable you can stand in this position for 10 minutes or even more than 10 minutes.

• Slowly breath-out and lower the legs and relax on the floor.

​

Limitation:

• People with neck, shoulder and elbow injury/issues, do not attempt to do excessively. This may increase the pain.
