I get a lot of yoga questions asking for tips on how to do inversions - especially scorpion pose and handstand. In my opinion, the best way to build up to those super advanced poses is to start with the basics. When you feel confident in headstand, move on to forearm stand.
Forearm stand requires a lot of upper body and core strength. You have to be continually pushing the mat away from you while simultaneously lifting up out of the shoulders. Look straight down between your elbows and find that balancing point. Try it up against a wall if you're new to this pose and when you're finished practicing forearm stand, go into child's pose to recover.

Pink Sun Activewear Pants Review
Pink Sun Activewear sent me two pairs of leggings. This pair, a bright, vibrant blue, and a cool printed pair (seen on instagram).
The pros: They've got a wide, flat waistband that stay put whether you're in down dog or out for a run. They're super stretchy, yet retain their shape, and really pull you in a lot like Lululemon's wunder unders. They lay nicely, stay put while you're wearing them.
The cons: The only drawback for me is that they have a regularly seamed crotch (gussets are more comfortable, in my opinion), and no hidden pocket in the waistband. But the pros outweigh the cons for me, as I'll definitely be wearing them in the future.
PS- More reviews, and more yoga poses.
