Has it been “a day”? Putting your legs up on the wall after a long day or week can feel sooo good.
If your day’s activities require you to be standing or walking a lot, putting your feet up on the wall (or back of the couch) can give a huge feeling of relief to the lower half of your body.
After hours of gravity pulling our soft tissue and fluids downwards, it’s nice to reverse that effect. It can also encourage circulation of lymph fluid. Lymph fluid has its own system with vessels but it doesn’t have a pump, so it relies on gravity and body movement to get where it needs to go.
Next time your legs or feet are feeling a bit sore, swollen, or tired, try elevating them on a steep angle by using the wall or a piece of furniture. Don’t blame me if you fall asleep though! ♥️
