Question: Regarding Yoga: Any inofmation on the Plough position? I HAVE BEGUN A YOGA SCHEDUAL, ON MY OWN, AS I AM A STUDENT AND CANNOT PAY FOR A TRAINER, BUT I AM MOVING ALONG QUITE NICELY. ALTHOUGH, I DO RUN INOT DIFFICULTIES WHEN I COMPLETE MY TRANSITION INTO THE FULL *PLOUGH*. AFTER I RELEASE THE POSE, I FIND MYSELF WITH A TERRILE HEADACHE FOR THE NEXT 2 DAYS. THIS HAS HAPPENED FREQUENTLY. ANYONE HAVE ANY IDEAS?

Answer: This is not a good sign. Something is wrong for sure, but from your description I cannot tell what it is. I'd strongly recommend you to do either of the below:\n1. Find a good teacher and show him/ her how you do the pose for diagnosis\n2. If you cannot afford #1, stop doing the pose\n\n#1 is preferred to #2 if you can afford.\n\nIf you intend to continue learning on your own, remember this: Despite all the potential benefits of yoga, it can also do harm if not careful.
