I was searching internet for information on yoga for hair loss and found this piece of information that I would like to share.Below are some exercises that will reduce your hairfall:
Asanas that help to prevent hair fall and premature greying are:
Sirsasana or Head stand pose:
It increases the blood circulation and also enhances concentration. It is also known as the 'King of Asanas'. Squat and sit on the floor. Point your toes to the back. Place your palms on the knees and bend forward. Make a triangle between your elbows and finger lock.
The finger lock acts a cushion for the head. Leave your legs from the floor and touch the abdomen. Stretch your legs and let the knees remain folded. Slowly, release your knees and try to keep balance of your body. Hold for a movement. Slowly, fold your knees. Then fold the knees so as to touch the abdomen. Place the feet on the floor in a gradual manner. Hold your head and slowly move to Shavasana.
Adhumukha svanasana or The Downward facing dog:
It triggers the nervous system and enhances circulation, thereby preventing hair loss. Lie flat on your abdomen. Lift your trunk and rest on your knees. Place your palms on the floor. Stretch your legs and exhale. Place your body like an inverted 'V' and push your palms on the floor and inhale.
Kapalabhati or Frontal lobe cleansing technique:
It is a breathing exercise that aids in overall well being of the individual. Conscious inhalation is not allowed. Contract the muscles in the abdomen, while exhaling. Do it for five minutes. Continuous exhalation is done to the maximum extent possible. Take short breaks and extend the asana to ten minutes. It is done by sitting in an erect manner.
Anuloma viloma or Alternative Breathing:
It is a kind of breathing technique that helps in hair loss. It involves alternate breathing. Normal process of breathing is done initially. Pause and continue with one nostril. Breathe in through one nostril and breathe out through the other. Continue this pattern of breathing for about five minutes. It also increases the cognitive development of the individual.
