• Improving balance through yoga can improve vertigo.yoga 15 image by pdesign from Fotolia.com
  
  Vertigo is a feeling of dizziness caused by imbalances within the inner ear, and is sometimes accompanied by nausea. Sometimes, but not always, this imbalance is caused by poor blood circulation to the brain. In more severe and sudden cases of vertigo, it is often caused by a minor displacement of "stones" or small particles within the inner ear. Yoga increases balance and blood circulation and can be helpful to a person who is suffering from less severe vertigo.

  Kneel, sitting on your feet with the tops of your feet flat to the ground. Shift your body to sit to the right of your feet. Bring the left leg over the right while the right leg is still bent next to the side of your body. After placing the flat of your left foot next to your right knee, extend the arms to your sides at shoulder level. Bring your right arm down on the outside of your left knee and hold your left foot with your right hand. Place your left hand on the floor behind you with a gentle twist. Breathe deeply and unwrap your body back to the seated position. Repeat in the opposite direction.
  
  

Malasana "Garland Pose"

• Squat down to the floor with your feet together and heels on the floor. As you squat down, spread your knees apart, bringing your thighs just wider than your torso. While you exhale, lean forward so that your torso is within your thighs. Press your elbows into your knees, pressing them toward the floor and force your knees to resist movement. Bring your palms together and lean your torso closer to the floor, pressing your thighs into your torso.Hold this position for 30 seconds before slowly stretching back to a standing position.

  While lying flat on your back, stretch your legs straight out as you bring your feet and toes together. Your arms should be at your sides, palms down. While inhaling, bring the legs together up to a 90 degree angle. Exhale deeply and continue the leg movement toward your head. If you're able to get your toes entirely to the floor above your head, great; if not, take the legs as far as your body will allow. Hold the pose for 8 deep breaths, inhaling and exhaling through the nose. Slowly lift the legs back up, rolling your back and legs back into the lying position.
