Benefits Of Raising Your Legs For 5 Minutes

1. Improves Blood Circulation
Lifting your legs helps blood flow back toward the heart, reducing fluid retention, heaviness, and swelling in the legs — especially after long periods of sitting or standing.

2. Reduces Swelling in Feet and Ankles
When you stay in one position too long, fluids can build up in your lower limbs. Elevating your legs naturally helps your body drain this excess fluid.

3. Relieves Pressure on the Veins
This simple position eases pressure in the leg veins, helping to prevent or soothe discomfort linked to varicose veins.

4. Calms the Nervous System and Reduces Stress
By promoting relaxation, this posture — similar to certain yoga poses — helps slow your heart rate and brings a sense of calm and mental clarity.

5. Eases Back and Leg Pain
Raising your legs relieves tension in the lower back and leg muscles, providing a light and relaxed feeling after a long or demanding day.

How to Do It Properly:
Lie on your back near a wall.
Place your legs up against the wall at a 90° angle.
Breathe slowly and relax.
Stay in this position for 5 to 10 minutes.
