I have a sore throat. And a scratchy cough. And a voice that’s not very dependable, like a junior kookaburra practising his chortle.
I pulled down the big B.K.S. Iyengar Yoga the Path to Holistic Health and intuitively turned to the therapeutic practice for sinus congestion.
It is so good! I’m not cured but not snuffling and hacking.
The most powerful poses are upside downs:
Uttanasana
Adho Mukha Svanasana
Uttanasana
Sirsasana
Viparita Dandasana
Halasana
Sarvangasana
Setubandha Sarvangasana
Viparita Karani
Details about Iyengar’s wonderful book can be found on the ‘Bookshelf’ page of this site.
(Good for hay fever attacks where there is extreme sinus congestion.)
