Shoulder Stand (Sarvangasana yoga pose) strengthens the heart and respiratory system, reduces constipation and increases strength and flexibility of the body.Sarvangasana or Shoulderstand, is an inverted asana in yoga. It is considered as the "queen" of asanas, an important and beneficial pose for your eyes.

BENEFITS : In Sarvangasana position, the blood circulation is especially centered towards the thyroid gland. The body position is topsy-turvy, so there is no difficulty for the heart to pump the blood towards the brain, since it automatically flows towards the brain. This position has beneficial effects on the two main parts of the body; these are the thyroid and parathyroid glands, and cervical vertebra. The thyroid and parathyroid glands have effects on functions of respiration, blood circulation, digestion, excretion, and nervous system. When these glands function properly, the other above-mentioned systems function normally. Therefore, this Asana is called, Sarvangasana, as it takes care of all these functions.
