feels good you deserve this time for yourself so close your eyes take a nice deep breath in and long exhale out deep breath in through the nose long breath out through the nose or the mouth doesn't matter and continue to deepen your breath play with it and we think about why you came onto your mat today maybe calling an intention out for your practice something positive that serves you in the present moment here is you breathe into the back body grow heavy in the hips and shoulders choosing to let go of the day thus far any items on the agenda ahead the hard part is over you're on your mat

and begin to move in your cat cow find what feels good here moving with your breath stretching out the front body the back body and then when you're ready you can kind of veer off the railroad tracks here and begin to play stretching through the side body sending the hips one way and then the other maybe tapping into a little inner smile if you will stretching through the feet by curling the toes under any movement here that feels awesome explore stretching the body maybe tending to the wrist and then wherever you are come back to Center and do one more inhaling pressing away from your
