7 Reasons why it’s Healthy to do a Headstand Everyday
Everyone who came out to Urban Surf this summer and got on a SUP board had to at least try a headstand once! It’s just so much fun and to be honest I love the fact that I can let the blood from my body rush into my head, I mean we stand straight and tall all day long, it’s got to be good to get some of that blood flow around that brain of ours too !
So I just did a little research on it and I listed 7 reasons why it’s good to do a headstand everyday below. Now I find doing a headstand WAY easier on a SUP board then not, maybe it’s the way the board moves slightly with my body I’m not sure. But I am going to try to do one everyday on or off my SUP Board, give it a try too let’s change the way we stand every once and a while!
7 Reasons why it’s good to do a Headstand Everyday!
- Change the direction your skins hanging off that face of yours, flush some of the nutrients the other way and give your skin a glow.
- Increase blood flow to your scalp, hey it may even change your greys back to your natural colour. 😉
- It will help strength your core muscles, get all those little muscles in there really working.
- If we have fluid retaining in our feet it will transfer the flow outwards helping decrease the risk of varicose veins.
- Our hearts work very hard to pump blood up into our brain, so anytime you can give it a break from unnecessary strain is a great thing.
- Doing a headstand will almost always make you smile.
- Headstands tend to heat the body and stimulates our nervous system… sounds good to me!
