This yoga pose helps build and strengthen the thoracic and lumbar spine by increasing circulation and flexibility. In addition, it relieves tension in the neck and throat and alleviates the accumulation of mucus in the sinuses and respiratory organs. Halasana (Plow yoga pose) has a calming and invigorating effect on the sympathetic nervous system. Furthermore, it helps balance the secretion of adrenaline and thyroxine hormones and improves the elimination of toxins from the digestive and urinary tracts. Due to the inverted position, Halasana promotes mental clarity and increases vitality.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-3307 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/zojaxyoga.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/young-attractive-woman-halasana-pose-white-studio-background-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"Plow yoga pose-Halasana\" width=\"422\" height=\"281\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/zojaxyoga.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/young-attractive-woman-halasana-pose-white-studio-background-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/zojaxyoga.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/young-attractive-woman-halasana-pose-white-studio-background-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/zojaxyoga.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/young-attractive-woman-halasana-pose-white-studio-background-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/zojaxyoga.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/young-attractive-woman-halasana-pose-white-studio-background-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/zojaxyoga.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/young-attractive-woman-halasana-pose-white-studio-background-2048x1365.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 422px) 100vw, 422px\" \/><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.freepik.com\/photos\/yoga-studio\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Yoga studio photo created by yanalya &#8211; www.freepik.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p>You may also like: <a href=\"https:\/\/zojaxyoga.com\/2021\/09\/19\/yoga-pose-shoulder-stand-sarvangasana\/\">Yoga pose Shoulder Stand &#8211; Sarvangasana<\/a><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_by_step\"><\/span>Step by step<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<ol>\n<li>From Yoga pose Shoulder stand (Sarvangasana), with exhalation, bend at the hips and lower the toes to the floor behind the head.
