ASANA OF THE DAY PARIVRTTA EKA PADA SIRSASANA-Revolved Split-Legged Headstand This pose is recommended only if you already have a regular practice of Headstand and you can easily balance without the aid of a wall. After a 30-second Headstand and a brief visit to Parsva Sirsasana, split your legs, right leg forward and left leg back. There is a tendency to drop the front leg much lower, so focus on the opening of your back leg. Twist so that your front leg crosses your midline. Keep your eyes soft but focused, your arms strong, and your neck elongated and easy. Strongly extend your legs as your feet remain alert and spread. Orient your pose from your point of contact with the ground and your back leg. Feel the even arc of your body between these points.
