"Legs up the wall" or Viparita Karani pose for 5- 10 minutes daily, is one of the most helpful poses for~

* relieving tension and stress
* calms the nervous system
* helps improve lymphatic drainage
* improves circulation and digestion
* manages varicose veins
*promotes good sleep

I've started doing this pose 2-3 times daily and noticing a significant benefit especially after the intense workouts I do before work!

Give it a try- I think it'll become one of your favorite poses too! 😉

Enjoy the videos and music you love, upload original content, and share it all with friends, family, and the world on YouTube.

Massage therapy supports heart health by lowering blood pressure, reducing heart rate, and decreasing stress hormones like cortisol and adrenaline. Regular sessions can improve circulation, enhance relaxation, and reduce anxiety.
It acts as a beneficial, complementary treatment for managing hypertension and enhancing cardiovascular function.

Key benefits of massage for cardiovascular health include:

Reduced Blood Pressure & Heart Rate: Studies show that consistent massage therapy can lower both systolic and diastolic blood pressure.

Stress Reduction: By lowering cortisol and adrenaline levels, massage mitigates the "fight-or-flight" response that damages the heart.

Improved Circulation: Massage promotes better blood flow, which assists in delivering nutrients and oxygen to tissues while aiding in the reduction of inflammation.

Enhanced Relaxation and Sleep: Improved, more restful sleep is common, which contributes to lower overall cardiovascular stress.

Support for Specific Conditions: Massage can benefit those recovering from heart surgery or dealing with high blood pressure.

Happy Heart & Stroke awareness Month!!

We've all heard the information-

**"Cardiovascular disease is a major health issue in Nova Scotia accounting for the death of more Nova Scotians than any other disease."

**"Cardiovascular disease claims 30%+ of all deaths, making it among the biggest killers in the province".

Not to mention that heart disease and stroke are now becoming the leading killer among women! Time to make ourselves the priority!

We can all do better & do a little more so we're around longer & don't forget about our mental health! It's just as important as physical health!
Stress can take it's toll on us in ways we are not even aware of and alot of us internalize it and it can become unrecognizable!

So what can we do? How can we stop being overwhelmed with this information? Easy- Be selfish and start small! Eat healthy and move more!

Take a yoga class, go for a 30 minute daily walk,
get a MASSAGE 😉, meditate, take social media breaks!

There are so many options! Don't wait til you are plagued with a major issue to make a change!

All you have to do is make up your mind and start!
It's NEVER too late!

"Just do it. Even if you suck"
