After meal?

[@wendylarman7204]

I love doing this while I play some of my favorite music - letting myself dance...move.... on my back! It just keeps me grinning!

[@riverbankfisher]

This idea cured a persistent back pain I'd had all day, in about 5 minutes of just lying there with my legs up the wall. The effect was nothing short of miraculous.

[@HeartBonesYogaAnatomyMobility]

That's amazing!

[@ramsg9988]

Best solution for varicose viens patients.

[@marlene3084]

Wow. Like❤️. Done this exercise only for three days in the evening. Already paying off. First time felt terrible, my legs and lower back so stiff muscles . But tonight already so much better. Even my feet/ancles are better. Thank you.

[@authorcraigcothren]

Your sit side ways to the wall suggestion has enabled me to getmyfeet higher up the wall😊

[@SuperColon2]

Firstimer. Thanks. Will be coming back

[@BinsarHutabarat-gf9yu]

I am so happy. I enjoy your good exercise. BEAUTIFUL. Thank you so much for you.

[@luciehsuen8981]

Thank you for sharing this short & sweet sequence to open the hip. Will visit this one again. 👍

[@sreenivasamurthy4163]

Excellent video. In our yoga class, legs up the wall is one of the ways of relaxing the body, after a physically invigorating vinyasa session. A couple of additional drills that can be included (based on what we practice). 1. Before widening both the legs along the wall, one leg can be on the wall, and the other leg can be brought down along the wall to the floor to be perpendicular to the leg on the wall. Stay in this position for a few breaths, and slowly take the leg back along the wall to join the other leg. Repeat on the other side. 2. Bend the knees to come to bound angle pose (badhdha konasana) and gently do a few rounds of butterfly flaps.

So nice x my right hip has a lot of tightness ..feel this helping x😮

[@rupkishorlacoul9995]

Very useful. This exercise is reducing pain unexpectedly. Thanks. from NEPAL

[@nhmisnomer]

And when you do this your cat sits on your chest and purrs. So there's that benefit also. :-)

[@mamamoments4U]

Aww how cute!

[@atis9061]

For the kitty, yes

[@Figgatella]

My dog licks me in the face😂😂😂

[@lifeslessons9889]

I’d sooner not tbh … 🐈👎

[@lifeslessons9889]

@@atis9061. REALLY ???? 🙀

[@charmainegordon394]

I do these upside down on the recliner. The backup and the leg extension out and my legs up on the back of the recliner. The ability to move the back of the recliner up and down also facilitates in the intensity of the exercises. Good stuff especially when you don't have a wall to utilise or you don't want to be on the floor.

[@purnimadevulaplli5328]

These stretches are really amazing !! I have done them before and do them atleast thrice a week which gives a good relaxation to the whole legs and good sleep .. love it ❤

[@susieinthecountry4434]

My hip pain is lessened with this exercise. I try to aim for 30 minutes daily! glad it's good for me.

[@ramiahs4961]

Thank you. It's a great one to do and the benifits. Regards. God bless❤

[@spinnettdesigns]

I’m in fairly good shape and the “4’s” were easy for me but I was astonished at how taxing the rotations were, esp when my feet were closer together and then when they were at their widest. Thank you so very very much for this, I’ll continue these

[@ginam2817]

This is exactly what I need! Sharing it with my besties too!

[@lindylou19]

I can't even thank you enough for explaining how to get yourself in that position to begin with. I am 63, still work and am active but I am not flexible. Never was. Also bad knees. So, thank you again. Also, I have varicose veins with bad valves. I wear compression Stockings everyday and they are a life saver. I think that this will also help me immensely with that. Thank you so much again. P.S. I was so excited about you explaining how to get in the position to start that I subscribed to your channel. ❤

[@HeartBonesYogaAnatomyMobility]

Thank you so much for sharing that with me! Happy that this is helpful for you and yes, so many people don't actually explain how to get your legs up the wall :)

[@terrydillon9323]

Thank you, very helpful information.

[@Kuttanwarrior]

BRILLIANT DEMONSTRATION INDEED! I HAVE BEEN DOING THIS 'SIMPLE VANILLA ' ,BUT FROM NOW ONWARD I SHALL ABIDE BY YOUR STYLE! DR SADASIVAN, INDIA.

[@blessedera4188]

This feel incredible. I will spread the word 🤙🏾

[@benitakretzer840]

I like that I can change the way my body feels in a few short minutes! Thanks so much Brea! 😃

[@joeboyd4726]

Nice video. There are millions of yoga videos on KZbin. Your explanations stand out. I’m a 72 yo guy and have knee pain walking up and down stairs. Watched that video which was great and I will do that. Looking for something about bursitis in hips. Didn’t see anything. Thank you for sharing.

[@HeartBonesYogaAnatomyMobility]

Thank you for that wonderful feedback, I'm glad my explanations stand out! I don't have any videos for hip bursitis however.

[@anonymousanonymous7304]

Have you ever watched Bob and Brad physical therapists on the internet? This is one, but there are several if you do a search. kzbin.info/www/bejne/rpKahZmsf7ShaKM

[@barbaramckay1307]

Will. That posture , 😊 help early waking

[@Andieveronica]

This was legit while studying for finals!!! My hip pain is gnarly and this helped so much!! 💪🏼

[@Neb.333]

I needed to roll up a towel for under my neck, fyi if you have neck shoulder issues it helps. ❤thank you this is very gentle and comforting.m

[@mariarosariaiannucci8346]

Grazie Prof, una splendida posizione

[@patkivlahan9099]

WOW. The pose with the legs in a 4 position, then bent the other leg - that pose fired a trigger point in my glutes on both sides. I stayed at that a long spell. All the positions challenged me. I need this daily. My first time here and I'll be a regular.

[@itsallgood2206]

That was a great hip stretch. Whew!

[@joan8178]

I was getting swelling in one foot/leg and after only 2 10min/day sessions it is almost totally gone!! And the dog loves it--thinks I'm getting ready to play lol

[@vinnaappaya1927]

Nice ex. Sure it will be en overall beneficial.

[@frankwiggins6688]

Thank you for this session. Frank

[@zuzaabadzhi2838]

[@megancloninger5296]

Thanks for the back of the door tip!

[@HeartBonesYogaAnatomyMobility]

Glad it helped, it's a simple fix for small spaces or full walls :)

[@aarabgamer5869]

I don't feel deeply condemned, even while sleeping, many things play on my mind. There is a way to do that. Thanks for the help

[@stephanieinspired1151]

Fabulous ‼️🥰🎶🙌

[@saima291]

My leg was hurting I tried this thanks its helped a bit so will try it a few more times

[@pushpajayesh]

It’s better to use a cushion (rolled towel) under our back or close to the hip area to get closer to the wall

[@thedareneewilliams8360]

Thank you so much Bree Johnson!!! Just what I need it and didn't even know it 😃👍🏻

[@rohinimayekar6093]

[@elenistavridou9082]

Σάς Ευχαριστούμε !!!

[@yoligooding]

I guess this would be okay to do for your hip flexor?

[@nisreenlokatbharmal6504]

Should you do this on an empty stomach or is that not necessary?

[@lyndamellor5497]

Can you do this with replacement hips?

[@TheAtulchouthmal]

Great info. Thank you.

[@phillyshaji1677]

After dinner after how many hours should u do these exercises?

[@authorcraigcothren]

What causes tingling down my leg when it is over my head?😮

[@laurarobichaud5747]

I had both hip replacement,wonder if rotation is good for me ?? Someone knows?

[@jeannelson9956]

PT taught me to do this! Both hips replaced!😊

[@johngoh767]

Yoga Teacher, how much time is safe to put the feet on the wall, and how is breathing should be done casual breathing in through the nose and out through the mouth? Any danger if we do more than 20 minutes?

[@kristiminjoe8034]

Is it okay to not use a wall? Is it more beneficial to use wall? Thanks for your helpful video!

[@dr.arpitakar436]

If you can do without wall that's great.. To hold for 20 mins we need abdominal muscles to be strong, so we take support of wall.

[@sayunasoulmesseng839]

I dont like abs excersises, but do this excersise withou wall my belly fat dissapeared and much stronger core

[@sanjugoyal8455]

Mam i repeatedly get sacroillitis and have sciatica.... Can i do these exercises....any facility where we can take consultation from you...

[@melcampbell4255]

Is this safe if you've had a hip replacement.... I'm 6 weeks post op .... My surgeon said I can do exercise like Pilates etc but I'm a bit weary about dislocation so if anyone can "advise" please and I accept it's not medical advice

[@michellefrothingham4275]

Your physical therapist would have the answer… also show the therapist this video

[@12sabbath]

That felt great! 😊

[@sireeshakondepudi5003]

Is it reduce wrist size and hips

[@kathyt9526]

Thank you

[@robsutherland5744]

Doesn't doing all those movements counteract the original purpose of doing legs up the wall? Just started doing this activity and I'm sure it will be good in the long run.

[@shaymalamanjunath687]

Can these wall on leg exercise be done by people who have undergone total hip replacement surgery after two from the gate of surgery.

[@virtualwhispers]

You need to ask your own doctor these questions - People on KZbin vids can't give you that kind of advice.

Out of site man ✌️

[@Val-we3kk]

I keep getting pushed away from the wall. Any suggestions?

[@HeartBonesYogaAnatomyMobility]

If you start with your body a foot or so away from the wall, that would help. Tight hamstrings and then placing yourself too close to the wall tends to make it feel like you're being pushed away from the wall.

[@nancyf7919]

I used to call that The Obscene Stretch in ballet, as a joke. It is the perfect exercise though. vThanks for the modified refresher.

[@bilawalali5508]
