Yoga Pose - Viparita Karani
Do you need to relieve sore feet, an aching back, a headache, or simply de-stress from a long day?
“Legs up the wall” pose, or Viparita Karani, is your answer.
Quite simply, this is the most amazing pose to release tension and tightness in the hips, back, shoulders and neck. You can use a support under the lower back area, as shown here, but this is not essential for this pose that brings calm and lightness to the body and mind.
Essential Oils to enhance Viparita Karani
If you want an oil to calm the mind and body, use a blend that contains Vetiver. It has the most amazing exotic aroma that helps take the edge off a busy, frazzled day. If you’re not sure how to use the oil, we have a few suggestions:
• Place a few drops onto your fingers and rub into the soles of your feet
• If using a diffuser, blend with another of your favourite oils
• Have a warm shower before putting your legs up the wall. Put a few drops onto a cloth and place it on the floor of the shower to allow the warm water to fill your shower space and enjoy with a few deep yogic breaths
28-Day Intentional Life Workshop
Many journals are available to record your inner-most thoughts, feelings, and dreams. But using a Vision Book of your own creation can help guide you and keep you on track with your life purpose.
You may have heard of Vision Boards. But imagine making your very own book for each year that covers many aspects of your life in detail – family, work, business, travel, community, health, abundance, and friends.
Leaving space for personal reflections throughout the year, your Vision Book becomes your yearly journal.
Would you like a clear vision of your values and how to make them an active part of your life?
Through our 28-Day Intentional Life Workshop, give your mind, body, and spirit a health check to ensure they are aligned with your life vision while creating your own Vision Book.
