Benefits
Shoulder Stand is known as the mother of asana and there are wide ranging claims of its powers to heal pretty much everything. Physically it dramatically alters the effects of gravity on the body, changing the pressure on your internal systems, glands and organs, stimulating and invigorating your body, and allowing your blood to flow freely back to your heart. I like to imagine the organs being massaged from the inside. Mentally, it’s a calming posture; good for stress, anxiety and anger reduction.
