Get Guaranteed Hair Growth with these Magical Yoga Asanas

Reading Time: 4 minutes

Hair loss is a major health concern that affects almost everyone today. Stress, pollution, an unhealthy lifestyle, and poor food choices all contribute to poor hair quality and hair breakage.

Hair loss, on the other hand, has become a serious concern among individuals infected with the novel coronavirus.

There are, however, a few things you can do to significantly lessen, if not entirely eliminate, hair fall. Two of these are yoga asanas and pranayama. Many practitioners have discovered that applying these two consistently and meticulously has resulted in enhanced hair growth.

All forward-bending asanas increase blood flow to the brain and improve overall circulation. This helps to keep your scalp and hair in good shape.

This is something that the asanas that follow can help you with. It is recommended that you practise these on a frequent basis for best results.

Kapalabhati

This breathing exercise aids in the removal of toxins from the kapal, or entire head or face region, hence improving oxygen supply and lowering free radicals, allowing hair growth. Furthermore, it aids in the reduction of stress and anxiety, both of which contribute to hair loss.

Follow this Steps:

Step 1: Take a comfortable seat on the ground, tucking your legs one atop the other and placing your hands on your knees, palms facing upward.

Step 2: Inhale through your nose and bring your navel and stomach back towards your spine, keeping your spine erect.

Step 3: Quickly exhale through your nose, allowing your navel and abdomen to relax.

Step 4: At first, repeat this technique 10 times.

Adho Mukha Svanasana

The downward facing stance, Adho Mukha Svanasana, is one of the 12 poses we perform during the Surya Namaskar. It’s a transitional resting stance that improves blood circulation. As a result, there is more oxygen reaching the scalp, which encourages hair growth. 

Follow these steps:

Step 1: Bring all four limbs together to form a table-like structure in your body.
Step 2: Your shoulders should be just behind your wrists, and your hips should be directly above your knees.
Step 2: Take a deep breath and pull your hips upward. Straighten your elbows and knees at the same moment to form an inverted V shape.
Step 3: Grasp the ground with your hand and straighten your neck. Your ears should contact your hands, your attention should be fixed on your navel, and you should inhale.
Step 4: Take a breather, then bend your knees and return to the table.

Uttanasana

Uttanasana, often known as the camel pose. This yoga pose stretches and relaxes muscles while also increasing blood flow and oxygen levels to the head. As a result, your hair follicles become stronger and your hair grows longer. It improves the quality and texture of your hair, as well as making it perfect and shinier.

Follow these steps:

Step 1: Take a stand with your feet hip-distance apart.
Step 2: Take a deep breath and raise both hands to the ceiling.
Step 3: Exhale and fold forward over the legs by hingeing at the hips.
Step 4: Press your palms against your calves or bring your fingertips to the ground.
Step 5: Take a deep breath and softly lay your hands on your hips to raise yourself.

Vajrasana

The thunderbolt posture, or Vajrasana, is a basic yet powerful stance. It directly addresses stomach-related disorders, which you may or may not believe play a significant role in hair loss. Vajrasana aids in the relief and healing of many of these ailments, as well as improving digestion. 

Follow these steps:

Step 1: Kneel on the mat with your knees together and your palms resting on your thighs. Make sure your feet are separated by a few centimetres.
Step 2: Keeping your spine erect, sit back between your calves and pull your feet close to your buttocks.
Step 3: Extend your arms outwards and cover your knees with your palms.
Step 4: Hold this position for 2 minutes, then slowly increase the time.

Sirsasana

Sirsasana, also known as the headstand, promotes blood circulation in the scalp, which aids in the prevention of hair loss, thinning, and balding. This asana promotes fresh hair development and prevents hair from greying. It promotes hair development by assisting latent hair follicles to attain their maximal growth potential.

Follow these steps:

Step 1: Kneel down and place your fingers behind your head, interlocked.
Step 2: Now, stoop down and place your brow on the ground.
Step 3: Raise your legs slowly to stand upside down perpendicular to the floor, supporting the crown of your head with your interlocked hands.
Step 4: Keep your arms straight and your legs close together.
Step 5: Try to keep your balance for a few seconds after your body is solid in this stance.
