When you’re in a headstand…

  • …snow is going up instead of going down
  • …you’re holding the whole Earth instead of the Earth holding you
  • …your feet feels light
  • …your brain gets more blood
  • …you think that you look silly
  • …you once again get that idea that it’s not as hard to get into the position as it looked when you didn’t know how to
  • …you realise that the God made a good decision placing the vestibular system as high as possible in your body
  • …neighbours dog is still as annoying
  • …black is still black and white is still white
  • …music sounds just the same
  • …although is fading a bit with time
  • …you don’t care that you look silly
  • …your feet starts to get numb
  • …you start thinking that your blood system hasn’t been designed for you to remain in headstand for a long periods of time
  • …snow is still going upwards
  • …and your nose is blocked it gets worse
  • …it gets worse even if it is not blocked
  • …ok, you DO look silly, probably it’s about the time to get back

No, I’m not a yoga fan or anything, I don’t even do yoga. But I like to go into headstand every now and then, really straightens the spine and gives a mild shake to the body. There are loads of articles about the benefits of doing the headstand so I’m not going to list them here once again, give it a go if you dare and see for yourself… :)
