In Viparita Karani gravity gently enhances venous blood return. The blood flows back through the pelvis, with some possible cleansing benefits as the liver is open to all the blood vessels coming up from the lower body.
Breathing in this posture, which changes the pressures in the thoracic cavity with every inhalation and exhalation, is particularly relaxing. I love it.
I don't think my addiction for bolsters has quiet reached this ladies levels though...she loves them too.
