Handstand, in Sanskrit is Adho Mukha Vrksasana -- an inversion that will instantly change your perspective. Provides shoulders and arms strength; improves body stability and balance; relieves the body of tension and anxiety. Inversions are fun and playful; practice and enjoy the process.

A note about safety: No less than 5 people were involved in the making of this image - 2 were dedicated spotters watching for oncoming trains. Train tracks can be dangerous places. A train engine beats, a semi-trailer, an automobile, and definitely a human. Be especially careful in their right of way.

Molly now enjoys doing handstands in the pool.

It can be a little frustrating when people walk into your frame (even when I have no right to be frustrated!) but when they do something interesting it can work out pretty well! Like these two who were doing handstands near the waves — at Sutro Baths.

Myself doing a handstand at a creek nearby my house.
