is your brain sledding toward full-tilt jingle bell? mine too! i love the holidays: the parties, the frolicking and the music. however —> girl’s gotta get a break! your esthetician & self-care bon vivant has just thing to restore your body & skin … read on!
my go-to recovery poses are child’s pose and legs up the wall. click here for some details on getting into legs up. and below, we get into a few of the many, splendid benefits you’ll receive when you add this pose & focused breathing to your hollydaze disco nap.

here’s why *legs up the wall* is your go-to pre- and post-partay pose:
- gives your circulatory & lymph systems a flush, easing swelling and stiffness in tootsies & ankles … and will give your face a healthy glow
- after a long day, elevating your feet gets those tired gams ready for an evening of dance, dance, dance
- placing cucumbers on your eyes helps to soothe, hydrate & de-puff tired eyes thanks to high water content along with vasoconstriction & anti-inflammatory properties
- even though this pose is passive, you still get a gentle stretch on your hammies and lower back
- resting fully supported on your back and slowing/controlling your breath activates your parasympathetic nervous system
- if you’re planning to go out after putting your legs up, stay in the pose for no more 3 minutes. much longer and you’ll be ready for bed!
- try to avoid falling asleep ??? (it’s *that* relaxing!)
sending stockings full of good vibes your way and the warmest wishes to you & yours for a sparkly New Year!
