The more I do #handstand, the more I come back to its very foundation - the straight line. There's a reason why handstand in Sanskrit is called #ardhomukhavrksasana - which means a downward facing #treepose. The straight line handstand looks simple but it exposes a lot of the weaknesses that you have in your practice: do you have a banana 🍌 back? Are your shoulders too tight? Are you engaging your core? And above all, are you breathing and how long can you stay there with ease and grace? In all aspects I'm still a student of yoga and a dedicated practitioner every single day. Some days I'm good, some days I fail. But I persevere.

While we celebrate the good days, it is more important to embrace the bad days too. You will learn more about yourself and the practice from the bad days more than from the good days. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
