Abusing medications, even if they can be bought without a prescription, can pose health risks, so before going to the medicine cabinet for a painkiller, remember that there are other options. For example, some yoga poses can ease a headache produced by stress and fatigue from daily obligations. These yoga poses improve circulation, lower the heart rate, and calm the mind, which has a beneficial effect on headaches.
The first position consists of kneel on the mat and lower the trunk with the arms and the fingers stretched until reaching the ground with the forehead. If it is difficult for you, lengthen the trunk with each breath, which will help you to go down little by little until you reach your limit.
Now stand up and place your feet shoulder width apart. Lean forward and, using your abdominal muscles, bring your torso as close to your thighs as possible. Drop your arms to the ground and gently hold onto your toes. Now, holding that position, he moves his head, which must have been hanging upside down, from one side to the other, which relieve neck tension. Hold like this for at least five breaths.
This posture is called 'downward facing dog'. We stand up and bend down to touch the floor with the palms of the hands (knees can be bent). From there, we slowly move our feet back. Stretch your spine, lifting your glutes, and relax your head between your shoulders. We form a kind of equilateral triangle with the ground. Feet and hands well anchored on the ground, but without stress. Close your eyes and allow the blood to flow to your head. Stay like this for at least five deep breaths.
