✨ Spotlight Pose: Waterfall Pose (Viparita Karani) ✨
This restorative pose can help drain fluid from the lower extremities, decompress the lower spine, and promote relaxation.
🔸 How to practice:
1. Start by lying flat on your back with your knees bent and feet flat on the yoga mat.
2. Press into your feet to lift your hips and slide a yoga block or firm pillow under your tailbone, if desired.
3. Engage your core to lift your feet toward the ceiling, fully extending your legs.
4. Flex your feet and keep your legs straight while relaxing your arms beside you with your palms facing up.
5. Close your eyes and focus on your breathing as you hold the pose for 1–3 minutes.
6. To release, slowly bend your knees and lower your feet back to the floor.
7. If using a block or pillow, press into your feet to lift your hips and gently slide the support out from underneath you.
8. To neutralize your spine, hug your knees into your chest to decompress your lower back.
