ELIZABETH ROS kay, this is Plow Pose. This is an inversion.

This one is going to great for relieving pressure in the head and neck. So, we're going to come on to the back. Make sure the shoulder blades are flat on the floor and as you are ready, you're going to inhale and then exhale to bring the legs over the head. Just go ahead and let the arms relax on the floor behind you. What I like to do is tuck the toes, put the balls of my feet on the floor and press my heels toward the wall behind me. Keep the legs straight if you can and just feel the back of the neck, the shoulders, and the back of the head on the floor. Inhaling and exhaling here just think of widening through the shoulder blades and breathing in to the chest. When you're ready, exhale, come on down with control, one vertebra at a time, keeping the legs straight. And then when you're ready, bring the knees into the chest and just gently rock it out.
