Kandharasana (Shoulder pose)
July 8, 2008
Place the ball against a firm support, like a wall or some steady and stable furniture. Lie close to the ball. Place both feet flat on the top of ball as shown. Arms may be placed flat on the mat alongside the body, or if advanced student, arms may be interlocked, folded at elbows and placed under the head, to cushion it.
Ensure elbows are flat on the ground. Inhale. Raise hips, pressing down on the ball with your feet. Exhale, lower yourself. This is one round. Do five to ten rotations.
Benefits: It enhances all the benefits of the classic pose, by trimming hips and powering the neck. Respiratory capacity is also enhanced. The natural neck lock which occurs boosts metabolism, aiding weight loss.
