Just bending my head back makes me extremely dizzy and light headed…with nausea coming on immediately. I do have ALOT of emotional issues going on at this time and it’s interesting this is the pose I am having trouble with. Any modified moves I can do to still get the benefits? Suggestions on working my way through the dizziness and gradually enjoying this pose?! I really love all the moves in bikram yoga and feel it is would benefit me more if I didn’t get so dizzy and then scared….

Hi Rina

Is your head back only? Or have you pushed your hips forward first and then your head is back? Are your hands on your lower back?

A couple of things to try: See if you can pay some attention to the sensation that your hands against your lower back. It’s possible you are paying too much attention to the stuff that is not serving you! Make sure you are also looking back. Once you get hooked into that dizziness it can be very hard to keep looking backward.

Namaste
Gabrielle 🙂
