A practice for tired legs that you can do anywhere
A practice of 20 minutes, so you can do it anywhere and anytime. I start by explaining the posture, and then we hold for at least 20 minutes. The necessary time so that we shift from the sympatetic autonomous nervous system towards parasympatetic activation. This shift is fundamental for deep and nourishing sleep.
