This way we don’t need to do any exercises, just put our feet on the pillow and then go to sleep. Through this posture, our legs are fully relaxed, and the blood circulation in the legs and feet will flow back to the lungs and heart, so that the lungs and heart can get sufficient oxygen, and promote the activation of venous blood circulation in the legs and feet.

Many people's jobs require them to stand for long periods of time, such as teachers, waiters, etc. Because of long periods of standing, these people are prone to varicose veins in the lower limbs, and blood easily accumulates in the lower limbs. By raising the lower limbs, blood can flow back to the heart sufficiently, which is beneficial for the recovery of fatigue in the lower limbs.
