grounding yoga practice 4 00:00:07,109 --> 00:00:09,510 for you these are my five favorite poses 5 00:00:09,510 --> 00:00:11,639 to do when I'm feeling like my 6 00:00:11,639 --> 00:00:13,469 overactive crazy mind is getting the 7 00:00:13,469 --> 00:00:15,120 best of me these are my five favorite 8 00:00:15,120 --> 00:00:17,430 yoga poses to bust out to connect to the 9 00:00:17,430 --> 00:00:20,970 earth and to ground and stabilize my Chi 10 00:00:20,970 --> 00:00:23,850 or my energy and of course to find what 11 00:00:23,850 --> 00:00:25,529 feels good so hop on the mat and let's 12 00:00:25,529 --> 00:00:27,740 begin 13 00:00:36,270 --> 00:00:39,250 okay so the first pose that we are going 14 00:00:39,250 --> 00:00:43,510 to do today is sukhasan on the easy pose 15 00:00:43,510 --> 00:00:46,300 or the pose of the ease so what we do is 16 00:00:46,300 --> 00:00:49,870 we sit down on the earth and today would 17 00:00:49,870 --> 00:00:51,970 be a good day to maybe just sit right on 18 00:00:51,970 --> 00:00:53,199 the earth if you need to sit up on a 19 00:00:53,199 --> 00:00:55,690 blanket or a block please do that 20 00:00:55,690 --> 00:00:58,330 otherwise we'll just kind of plug in 21 00:00:58,330 --> 00:01:04,599 feel the bony bones of your bum say that 22 00:01:04,599 --> 00:01:07,330 five times fast connect to the earth and 23 00:01:07,330 --> 00:01:10,600 just just find what feels good here 24 00:01:10,600 --> 00:01:12,700 maybe give yourself a little bit of 25 00:01:12,700 --> 00:01:14,979 space so draw the ankles out of it and 26 00:01:14,979 --> 00:01:16,990 then we'll just allow the hands to rest 27 00:01:16,990 --> 00:01:18,820 gently on the tops of the thighs or the 28 00:01:18,820 --> 00:01:21,280 knees and for today we're going to go 29 00:01:21,280 --> 00:01:26,890 ahead and go palms face down then take a 30 00:01:26,890 --> 00:01:29,380 moment here to breathe in deep loop the 31 00:01:29,380 --> 00:01:32,619 shoulders forward up and back and then 32 00:01:32,619 --> 00:01:35,380 glide them on your exhale down the back 33 00:01:35,380 --> 00:01:43,000 body then sit up nice and tall and you 34 00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:44,740 can take your eyes off the video here 35 00:01:44,740 --> 00:01:47,920 for a moment closing the eyelids and 36 00:01:47,920 --> 00:01:50,050 just gently maybe rocking a little front 37 00:01:50,050 --> 00:01:54,429 to back so depending on how much cushion 38 00:01:54,429 --> 00:01:58,380 you have down there no toxic thoughts 39 00:01:58,380 --> 00:02:04,479 just notice the sensations on the sit 40 00:02:04,479 --> 00:02:07,990 bones there and then eventually see if 41 00:02:07,990 --> 00:02:11,039 you can come to a place of stillness 42 00:02:11,039 --> 00:02:14,950 where perhaps we align the head over the 43 00:02:14,950 --> 00:02:19,120 heart and the heart right over the ball 44 00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:24,010 of the pelvis now notice what is maybe 45 00:02:24,010 --> 00:02:26,830 happen to your shoulders as we were 46 00:02:26,830 --> 00:02:28,360 rocking front to back and if you need to 47 00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:30,580 repeat that move of lifting the 48 00:02:30,580 --> 00:02:33,790 shoulders forward up and back as you 49 00:02:33,790 --> 00:02:36,370 inhale and then using the exhale to 50 00:02:36,370 --> 00:02:39,150 Clyde them down the back body really 51 00:02:39,150 --> 00:02:41,170 tagging a little bit of way 52 00:02:41,170 --> 00:02:47,560 in the elbows now for most of us we're 53 00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:48,819 already wanting to move on to the next 54 00:02:48,819 --> 00:02:51,420 thing or stop the video or see how much 55 00:02:51,420 --> 00:02:53,530 longer we have of the video and I just 56 00:02:53,530 --> 00:02:56,709 invite you here in our grounding 57 00:02:56,709 --> 00:03:02,680 practice to close your eyes and let your 58 00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:07,290 breath move in and out of the body Hale 59 00:03:07,290 --> 00:03:13,450 inhaling and deeply and then extending 60 00:03:13,450 --> 00:03:19,180 the exhale just notice what's going on 61 00:03:19,180 --> 00:03:20,560 in the neck if you need to find a little 62 00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:22,900 movement here nodding the head yes or no 63 00:03:22,900 --> 00:03:30,519 or small circles but really feeling this 64 00:03:30,519 --> 00:03:35,590 heaviness in the lower body grounding 65 00:03:35,590 --> 00:03:38,110 down today with strong intentions to 66 00:03:38,110 --> 00:03:43,630 connect to the earth to connect to the 67 00:03:43,630 --> 00:03:50,709 big picture and allowing all the mind 68 00:03:50,709 --> 00:03:53,820 chatter and just the kind of busy bee 69 00:03:53,820 --> 00:03:56,680 energy of everyday life to just kind of 70 00:03:56,680 --> 00:03:59,829 quiet and slow down just for a couple 71 00:03:59,829 --> 00:04:02,560 more moments this is a practice and if 72 00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:06,510 this is difficult for you stick with it 73 00:04:07,799 --> 00:04:10,060 essentially the ultimate grounding 74 00:04:10,060 --> 00:04:11,980 practice for me and the ultimate Earth 75 00:04:11,980 --> 00:04:14,739 Day practice which is today is

in the feet and building a 105 00:05:58,470 --> 00:06:00,210 strong base and this is really the base 106 00:06:00,210 --> 00:06:02,790 for all standing poses which we're going 107 00:06:02,790 --> 00:06:04,560 to do more of but also really important 108 00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:08,310 just in terms of connecting to the earth 109 00:06:08,310 --> 00:06:10,890 grounding down down down again we don't 110 00:06:10,890 --> 00:06:13,650 normally say calm up to people who need 111 00:06:13,650 --> 00:06:15,600 grounding right stability we say calm 112 00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:17,760 down so today

up towards your 121 00:06:35,040 --> 00:06:39,330 face then root down through the big toes 122 00:06:39,330 --> 00:06:41,910 these big toe mounds then imagine a 123 00:06:41,910 --> 00:06:44,280 rubber band stretching over to press 124 00:06:44,280 --> 00:06:46,410 into the pinky toe mount so this is 125 00:06:46,410 --> 00:06:48,900 great foot rehab here really yummy for 126 00:06:48,900 -->
