------------------------------------------------------
Inversions on the rope wall can be transformative.
B.K.S Iyengar tells us, “Be cautious. Be bold”
Make sure you have the proper set-up as safety is most important. if you are not inverting due to a current medical condition or menstrual cycle wait until your timing is right.
Rope sirsasana is most commonly done when there are injuries or fatigue, or one wants to hold poses longer to build stability.
Additionally, it is done in preparation for pranayama.
The lengthening that happens in the spine is providing space within the vertebrae, length and release to tight shortened muscles, and space in the pelvis which brings softness and the full expression of the breath. As the hips are fixed on the rope the lengthening that happens is a kind of traction. The heart is above the head where it is given a resting place to reduce exertion on the ventricles that comes from standing upright. This all brings a sense of quietness to the brain releasing from mental or physical strain or exertion.

Thank you so so so very much. I have a challenge kicking up in handstand but no problem holding the pose once I am in it. That rope variation you showed allows me to get to the pose and then build strength in it.

[@DesaYogiIyengarYoga]

Excellent. Keep practicing, building up strength and confidence. 👏🏻🙏🏻♥️

Hi Kathy, I asked earlier on a video a while back so thought I'd ask again here on a more recent one! Where is a good reputable place to order ropes? Thanks!!

[@DesaYogiIyengarYoga]

Hi Ronni, sorry to miss your request. Where are you living? There are a few outlets but as shipping is involved I recommend you giving me your country or city location.
