Viparita Karani - The Inverted Pose - yogawithpragya

nbsp; There’s a general consensus among modern yogis that Viparita Karani or Legs-Up-The-Wall Pose may have the power to cure whatever ails you.

Gives relief from swollen feet. Relieve nausea. Contraindications This is an inversion and as such should be avoided if you have serious eye problems such as glaucoma. Busting the Myths This is actually a restorative and relaxing asana, but the final pose is quite difficult for beginners and those with stiff backs.  Read on for some practice pointers.
