Legs Up The Wall Pose
The Legs Up The Wall Pose, Sanskrit called Viparita Karani, which means “inverted position”.
However, in reality, only the lower part of the body is resting on the wall, the legs are exerted in the opposite position, the rest of the body is completely horizontal on the ground. As a result, the pressure of the blood flowing from the lower body upwards is only partially exerted.
Moreover , because of this pose requiring only a partial inversion of the body, it is therefore easy to apply to many practitioners whose health and flexibility are still limited. In addition, even for many others, although their level of yoga may be high, this pose also allows them to relax and recover.
The pose against the wall, although simple in practice, is very effective in improving physical and mental health.
