What are Endorphins ?

Endorphins are endogenous opioid polypeptide compounds. They are produced by the pituitary gland and the hypothalamus in vertebrates during strenuous exercise, excitement, pain and orgasm, and they resemble the opiates in their abilities to produce analgesia and a sense of well-being. Endorphins work as "natural pain relievers", whose effects may be enhanced by other medications. [Source : Endorphin - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia].

2. Concentration/ Meditation - I have found this method very effective. Whenever you get a headache, find a quite place in open air surroundings example garden or just go outdoors. Then Close your eyes and try to concentrate at the center point(with closed eyes). As long as you concentrate you will feel no pain but after you open your eyes, headache will be there. So, you need to do it for longer time and you can also take deep breaths as it will increase the oxygen level in your body and that is what our brain loves the most.

3. Shirshasana(headstand) - This yogic posture increase the flow of blood in the head which leads to rise in oxygen level and you can get relief from headache. It is advised to do this yoga regularly as it is very beneficial in the long run.
