Vrschik Asana (Scorpion Pose)

Aradhana
02/01/2020 0 0

Scorpion Pose (Vrschikasana) is an advanced Yoga pose which required more concentration and good flexibility. This intense backbend inversion mimics the position of a scorpion ready to strike.

Benefits : Scorpion Pose will strengthen your shoulders, arms, core, and back. It improves the flexibility of your spine and stretches your hip flexors and chest muscles. As an inversion, it is energizing as you have increased blood flow to your head.

Step-by-Step Instructions :

  • Begin by balancing in forearm stand in the center of the room.
  • Bend your knees and lift your head. 
  • In forearm stand, the hips are pretty much over your shoulders. For your body to move into the classic C shape of a scorpion, your hips must move away from your head. This happens naturally as you begin to curve your spine into a position of extension.
  • As you deepen your backbend, your knees may separate, but keep your big toes touching.
  • Continue to move your toes toward the crown on your head.
  • To come out, lower one leg at a time to the floor.
  • You may want to perform the Child Pose to counter the intense backbend of the Scorpion Pose.

Safety and Precautions : Do not attempt this pose if you have hip or back problems, high blood pressure, or are pregnant. Listen to your body. If you feel any pain, gently come out of the pose.
