Weirdly I discovered this too (without wall but legs up in air while lying on floor) just this year! I noticed it grounding me with an immediately centred perspective, scattered mind gone. Something scientific in it for sure..
I think if you leave your legs up the wall for about 10 minutes, your legs' blood gets entirely recirculated? (Source: distant yoga class) An internal rebalance/recalibration! Need to do it more thx for reminder.
Oh and rather than nice houses - I find ones that featured in horror films: https://dovecote.com.au/headland/ used in The Invisible Man (2020). I'd stay there just so I can run around deactivating the sensor alarms and make an escape over the back wall.
Liz did you know we’ve been in a yoga class together? So I think I’ve seen you start your day with your legs up the wall! The studio that was above Wholefoods in West Hollywood??
Great tip! If you were an actor I’d say break a leg, but you’ll need those legs for clarity and inspiration, so instead I wish you the very best of luck!

Great minds…

I’ve done it four times today (mega deadline to meet)
I might try this. I have seventeen papers still to grade and I'm about to go for a walk just to stay awake, which is my usual strategy.

Good luck!
This is what made me conceive Twins! No ideas for fabulous writing but just 2 beautiful babies!!
Congratulations! Maybe I’ll get two beautiful books out of it. x
You definitely will, you write beautifully
An inversion! Excellent for the brain! Will try it when I have to start teaching again this week.
It really helps
Oooh I love your rug!!!! X
I start every morning with my legs up the wall, and Redfin and Rightmove is my porn, especially in places I’ve never been 🩵
