Elevated Leg Rest

Somatic & Physical Restoration

15-20 Minutes

Lying flat on the floor with your legs elevated on a chair to relieve lower back tension and improve circulation.

1. Place a supportive chair or ottoman on a carpeted floor or yoga mat.

2. Lift your legs and rest your calves comfortably on the seat.

3. Lie down flat on your back right in front of the chair.

4. Adjust your distance so your knees form roughly a 90-degree angle.

5. Let your lower back settle flat against the floor and rest your arms out wide.
