Eka Pada Sirsasana	Can't Post

I would to know what series of asanas I should work to get in eka pada sirsasana. I need help. My hips are fairly flexible and I work them but I need some preparatory poses to achieve this position.

Good preparatory poses for Eka Pada Sirsasana are

Supta Padangustasana 1,2,3
Anantasana
Paschimottanasana
Kurmasana
Supta Kurmasana
Akrna Dhanurasana

A good article on this subject is in http://www.yogajournal.com/practice/180_1.cfm.

The pose is not as difficult as it seems once you realize that the trick is to mentally let go.
