Cold hands and feet are most often caused by
poor circulation or stress. Inverted poses such as
Downward Facing Dog,
Bridge,
Plow, and
Legs-up-the-wall pose simultaneously relax the body and improve circulation by dilating blood vessels, so blood can flow more easily to your extremities. To really feel the heat, take full, even breaths as you hold each pose for up to a minute.
