00:10:51,081 Do the last one with the sound of your breath. 214 00:10:55,240 --> 00:10:56,200 Beautiful. 215 00:10:56,200 --> 00:10:57,560 Pull the right hip crease back, 216 00:10:57,560 --> 00:11:00,720 flex your right toes towards your face. 217 00:11:00,720 --> 00:11:03,200 And then slowly roll through. 218 00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:06,636 We're gonna come back to all fours nice and easy. 219 00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:10,880 Find your alignment. 220 00:11:10,880 --> 00:11:12,120 Wrists underneath the shoulders, 221 00:11:12,120 --> 00:11:14,640 knees directly underneath the hips. 222 00:11:14,640 --> 00:11:16,680 And then we'll lift the left knee, 223 00:11:16,680 --> 00:11:19,760 again, pressing into both palms evenly. 224 00:11:19,760 --> 00:11:22,120 When you're already opening up to that hydrant, 225 00:11:22,120 --> 00:11:24,160 squeeze and lift. 226 00:11:24,160 --> 00:11:25,775 And then lower. 227 00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:30,680 Open, squeeze and lift. 228 00:11:30,680 --> 00:11:33,040 And then lower. 229 00:11:33,040 --> 00:11:34,640 One more time. 230 00:11:34,640 --> 00:11:37,280 Squeeze and lift. 231 00:11:37,280 --> 00:11:41,520 And then draw it in and all the way up to your lunge. 232 00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:42,960 Take a second to get settled here. 233 00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:45,806 Maybe walk the right knee back just a bit. 234 00:11:47,840 --> 00:11:49,640 Press into all four corners of the left foot. 235 00:11:49,640 --> 00:11:51,080 Squeeze the inner thighs to the midline. 236 00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:52,400 Lift up from the pelvic floor 237 00:11:52,400 --> 00:11:55,480 and we'll reach the fingertips forward, up and back. 238 00:11:55,480 --> 00:11:57,520 Extending through the crown of the head. 239 00:11:57,520 --> 00:12:01,600 Inhale in, exhale, take it around and down, 240 00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:03,560 fingertips kiss the mat. 241 00:12:03,560 --> 00:12:06,586 Twice more with the sound of your breath. 242 00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:20,960 And then slow and steady peeling that left hip crease back, 243 00:12:20,960 --> 00:12:23,538 flexing the left toes towards the face. 244 00:12:24,800 --> 00:12:26,400 Rolling through that left foot, 245 00:12:26,400 --> 00:12:28,640 bring it back to your lunge, 246 00:12:28,640 --> 00:12:30,160 back to all fours. 247 00:12:30,160 --> 00:12:32,040 Nice. 248 00:12:32,040 --> 00:12:34,360 Reset Tabletop Position. 249 00:12:34,360 --> 00:12:38,240 Now we're gonna drop the ribcage down towards the mat, 250 00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:42,960 then take it to the left and then bring it up through center. 251 00:12:42,960 --> 00:12:46,506 To the right, down, 252 00:12:46,506 --> 00:12:48,720 and in a circular motion you go 253 00:12:48,720 --> 00:12:52,080 now really exaggerating with the ribs, 254 00:12:52,080 --> 00:12:55,074 noticing what happens in the tailbone 255 00:12:55,074 --> 00:12:59,945 as you move through this flow. 256 00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:03,143 And then reverse. 257 00:13:05,120 --> 00:13:08,440 Can start to really find what feels good here. 258 00:13:08,440 --> 00:13:11,560 Think of the body as one moving part. 259 00:13:11,560 --> 00:13:14,000 So we're initiating with the rib cage, 260 00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:16,120 but really it's one moving part. 261 00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:18,080 Everything's connected. 262 00:13:18,080 --> 00:13:21,800 If you find a little, you know, sticky spot or sore spot, 263 00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:23,480 you might stay there for a moment. 264 00:13:23,480 --> 00:13:25,980 Breathe. 265 00:13:28,353 --> 00:13:30,480 And then bring it back to center when you're ready. 266 00:13:30,480 --> 00:13:34,640 Curl the toes under and we're gonna walk it back to our squat. 267 00:13:34,640 --> 00:13:37,800 Now this time the heels may 268 00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:40,960 stay lifted or maybe we walk 269 00:13:40,960 --> 00:13:45,680 our stance out a little more and come into a more 270 00:13:45,680 --> 00:13:49,600 traditional version of Malasana, yogic squat. 271 00:13:49,600 --> 00:13:52,200 Palms come together, elbows wide. 272 00:13:52,200 --> 00:13:53,800 We do not have to hit this today. 273 00:13:53,800 --> 00:13:55,200 We don't have to hit this ever. 274 00:13:55,200 --> 00:13:57,054 Just checking in. 275 00:13:58,840 --> 00:14:00,738 And noticing 276 00:14:03,442 --> 00:14:06,763 our relationship to all of these things. 277 00:14:08,240 --> 00:14:09,240 Cool, that's it. 278 00:14:09,240 --> 00:14:12,240 And then slowly lift the heels first, 279 00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:16,000 then press down into the toes, come back to all fours. 280 00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:17,400 Walk yourself to center, 281 00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:20,800 and then swing the legs to one side, any side, 282 00:14:20,800 --> 00:14:23,812 and come to lie down on your back. 283 00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:28,680 When you get there, hug the knees into the chest. 284 00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:33,555 Maybe rock a little side to side. 285 00:14:36,760 --> 00:14:39,520 Then from here, open the knees wide. 286 00:14:39,520 --> 00:14:41,080 Reach your hands through to 287 00:14:41,080 --> 00:14:45,320 grab either the inner arches or the outer edges of your feet. 288 00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:47,080 If you're like, "Yeah, right, lady," 289 00:14:47,080 --> 00:14:50,160 then come maybe to the tops of the kneecaps, excuse me, 290 00:14:50,160 --> 00:14:54,483 the front of the kneecaps or the front of the shins. 291 00:14:56,120 --> 00:14:58,250 And then see what happens if you kick one leg up 292 00:14:58,250 --> 00:15:00,746 and then the other, Happy Baby. 293 00:15:02,080 --> 00:15:04,080 Lengthen your tailbone forward. 294 00:15:04,080 --> 00:15:06,800 So there's an active lengthening of the tailbone 295 00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:09,480 and this posture that is really, 296 00:15:09,480 --> 00:15:13,429 really therapeutic and lovely, 297 00:15:13,429 --> 00:15:16,040 in my opinion. 298 00:15:16,040 --> 00:15:18,680 Take a deep breath in. 299 00:15:18,680 --> 00:15:21,520 Long breath out. 300 00:15:21,520 --> 00:15:23,400 Then slowly release that, 301 00:15:23,400 --> 00:15:25,240 bring the soles of the feet to the ground, 302 00:15:25,240 --> 00:15:28,200 palms come to the earth, arms gently at your sides. 303 00:15:28,200 --> 00:15:30,200 Walk the shoulder blades in towards each other. 304 00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:32,440 Make sure your toes are pointing forward. 305 00:15:32,440 --> 00:15:34,760 Inhale in, slow and steady, 306 00:15:34,760 --> 00:15:37,880 as slow as you can go with the tailbone initiating, 307 00:15:37,880 --> 00:15:39,760 we'll start to roll up through the spine, 308 00:15:39,760 --> 00:15:41,440 coming into a Bridge. 309 00:15:41,440 --> 00:15:42,880 Doesn't have to be the highest Bridge (chuckles) 310 00:15:42,880 --> 00:15:45,360 you've ever embodied your whole life. 311 00:15:45,360 --> 00:15:47,720 Make it nice and slow and more about the process, 312 00:15:47,720 --> 00:15:51,640 the journey of massaging up the spine. 313 00:15:51,640 --> 00:15:54,931 And then slowly down the spine. 314 00:15:57,600 --> 00:16:00,520 And for these next two rounds, maybe close your eyes so you 315 00:16:00,520 --> 00:16:04,330 can really feel that 316 00:16:04,330 --> 00:16:08,663 slow lift one vertebra at a time. 317 00:16:11,440 --> 00:16:15,265 Whole body moving together. 318 00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:19,446 One moving part. 319 00:16:25,760 --> 00:16:30,382 After your third Bridge, 320 00:16:30,382 --> 00:16:33,240 slowly release the spine, 321 00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:35,320 soften through the collarbone, the chest. 322 00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:37,948 We'll open the knees wide. 323 00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:41,430 Slowly bring the left hand to the heart 324 00:16:41,430 --> 00:16:43,658 and the right hand to the belly. 325 00:16:45,360 --> 00:16:47,720 Inhale in deeply. 326 00:16:47,720 --> 00:16:51,682 As you exhale, relax the weight of your body. 327 00:16:53,240 --> 00:16:55,584 Find stillness. 328 00:16:58,720 --> 00:17:01,490 The wisdom of the body is 329 00:17:01,490 --> 00:17:06,240 just impeccable. 330 00:17:06,240 --> 00:17:10,160 So what this time does for us is it allows, 331 00:17:10,160 --> 00:17:12,981 it simply allows us 332 00:17:12,981 --> 00:17:17,279 to connect to that wisdom. 333 00:17:18,960 --> 00:17:23,440 Again, this idea that the movement is really an 334 00:17:23,440 --> 00:17:25,520 expression of your innermost self. 335 00:17:25,520 --> 00:17:28,400 So that's why we focus on the how. 336 00:17:30,120 --> 00:17:35,428 That's why we train to reside in the role of the observer. 337 00:17:38,440 --> 00:17:42,960 And all of this takes practice and curiosity. 338 00:17:42,960 --> 00:17:47,229 So thank you once again for showing up here 339 00:17:47,229 --> 00:17:49,760 to do just that. 340 00:17:49,760 --> 00:17:53,480 Extend your right leg out long, extend your left leg out long. 341 00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:55,620 And you can bring the toes in and out a little bit here, 342 00:17:55,620 --> 00:17:57,040 a little windshield wiper. 343 00:17:57,040 --> 00:17:59,050 Should feel good. 344 00:18:02,771 --> 00:18:05,576 And let everything go. 345 00:18:08,480 --> 00:18:12,040 Slowly bring the palms together. 346 00:18:12,040 --> 00:18:14,520 Lift the thumbs up to the third eye. 347 00:18:14,520 --> 00:18:17,591 Inhale, lots of love in. 348 00:18:19,720 --> 00:18:20,960 Great work today. 349 00:18:20,960 --> 00:18:23,494 Exhale, lots of love out. 350 00:18:25,080 --> 00:18:26,415 Namaste. 351 00:18:27,159 --> 00:18:31,263 (upbeat rhythmic music)
