Pincha Mayurasana/Feathered Peacock Pose
This inversion pose tests pretty much every part of my concentration and balance. I have never felt comfortable upside down and there is always a fear of falling!!!
Itβs a work in progress and a good reminder to me that in my yoga practice as well as in life, patience is required and fear of the unknown will always be there. Bringing my mind into the present moment by following my breath, noticing how my body feels and moving through the fear is what helps in Pincha as well as day to day in life. Since I have the tendency to over think things (think about the future, what may or may not happen!) and then talk myself out of things, consciously bringing my mind back to the present, back to what is happening right now, by noticing when my mind wanders off, helps immensely in life (and yoga!).
