Benefits of Inverting

Yoga inversions are an amazing way to balance the body and release the mind.
Inversions flip us around, literally turning us upside down which creates a change of perspective that stimulates and invigorates. Inversions have been known to help benefit and balance the cardiovascular, lymphatic, endocrine and nervous system. Studies have shown that regular practitioners of inversions even mild inversions like Viparita Karani also known as legs up the wall pose(one of my favorites!) helps to improve sleep, focus and digestion. So find a good wall, grab a pillow for the head and get your legs up! I recommend holding for 5-10 minutes.
