8 Yoga Poses That Can Improve the Health of Your Thyroid
Supported Shoulderstand: Shoulderstand, an inversion, stimulates blood flow to the thyroid glands, potentially improving thyroid efficiency.
Plow Pose: Similar to Shoulderstand, Plow Pose stimulates the thyroid. Lie on your back, lift legs over your head, and support your lower back.
Fish Pose: A counter pose to Shoulderstand, Fish Pose opens the throat area, stimulating the thyroid.
Legs-Up-the-Wall Pose: Viparita Karani, a restorative inversion, balances thyroid function without neck pressure.
Cat-Cow Pose: The fluid motion of Cat-Cow stimulates the thyroid by bringing blood flow to the throat.
Boat Pose: Boat Pose influences the thyroid through neck positioning. Sit, lean back, lift legs, and balance while keeping the spine straight.
Camel Pose: Camel Pose with a strong neck extension stimulates the thyroid gland. Kneel, open your chest, and slowly bend backward, keeping your chin slightly tucked.
Cobra Pose: Cobra Pose gently stimulates the thyroid without intense neck tilting. Lie on your stomach, press palms down, and lift head and chest.
