Also called Karnapidasana
Technique
How to perform Ear Pressure Pose
- Enter a comfortable supported Plow Pose with the head centered and still.
- Bend the knees toward the sides of the head, stopping before the neck feels compressed or breathing becomes restricted.
- Keep weight supported on the shoulders and upper arms; the knees do not need to reach the floor or press against the ears.
- Straighten the legs enough to return to Plow, then support the back and roll down slowly.
