That sounds hard! I think I'll build my confidence back with heels on the wall for now.

Eek!!! I practice headstand at the wall. I'll only do it in the middle of the room if somebody spots me. I'm too chicken to try it on my own.
Live with intention. Walk to the edge. Listen hard. Practice wellness. Play with abandon. Laugh. Choose with no regret. Continue to learn. Appreciate your friends. Do what you love. Live as if this is all there is.

Ow!
There was a guy at the gym the other night - early 60's. I swear he held a headstand - away from a wall - for 5 minutes. It was insane. If my head is on the ground like that, it's because I am napping.Sarah

There are people at my yoga studio who van do (and hold) all sorts of crazy inversions in the middle of the room. One instructor is so steady in her headstand that she doesn't move even the slightest bit once she's in the pose. I can get into it without the wall and hold it, but I still like having it close in case I lose my balance.
