Description
Plow pose An inverted pose where the body is folded forward with the feet extended overhead toward the floor behind the head. Commonly included in closing sequences or as a counterpose to backbends, it promotes spinal lengthening and flexibility. Classified among forward bends and shoulder stand variations, it typically follows shoulder stand and precedes fish pose. Known as halasana or langalasana in Sanskrit, meaning "plow," reflecting the shape formed by the legs and torso.
