Yoga For A Stressed Out World: Relax & Rejuvenate: Rejuvenate: Gentle Inversion Practice

About this class:

Practice Viparita Karani (Supported Inversion) with your legs up the wall and pelvis on a bolster. This pose gently reverses your body’s relationship with gravity and facilitates a deeply nourishing rejuvenation. After some minutes in the basic position, stretch your legs in Baddha Konasana (Bound Angle) and Upavistha Konasana (Wide Angle). Gently slide out of the pose, rest on your back, then preserve your state of deep calm as you shift into seated meditation. Practice this class anytime your legs are fatigued and/or swollen, at the end of a busy day, when you have trouble sleeping or are jetlagged, or when your monkey mind prevents equanimity. Prop list: bolster, wall, blanket, optional props = strap around legs, sandbag on feet, eye pillow or folded cloth covering eyes.
