How I did it: I didn't think I'd be able to do it right away but you've got to start somewhere, right? I watched a Youtube video about how to do it properly then gave it a go against a wall. I fell a lot but since I was against a wall it didn't matter. Eventually I got it right and now I'm just working on doing my headstand with control and elegance and edging away from the wall.

Lessons & tips: I strongly recommend starting against a wall.

Resources: I googled "yoga headstand" and watched a video about how to do it safely. I recommend doing the same to learn the small details that help a lot.
