YES YES YES! Handstands are my little life perk. I think of them as something "I" can do. When I'm either too heavy or out of shape to do a handstand, I don't feel like "me." I totally get it. :)
That's wonderful! I could always hold handstands for a second. Definitely tried doing that today. Practice and it will come. Keep it up! Nothing better than seeing the world in a different perspective :)
