1
00:00:00,199 --> 00:00:01,560
- Hello, my darling friends.

2
00:00:01,560 --> 00:00:04,480
Welcome back to Flow,
your 30 Day Yoga Journey.

3
00:00:04,480 --> 00:00:08,000
It's Day 29.

4
00:00:08,000 --> 00:00:09,280
Trust.

5
00:00:09,280 --> 00:00:10,734
Let's get started.

6
00:00:12,504 --> 00:00:17,352
(light rhythmic music)

7
00:00:31,680 --> 00:00:34,560
Okie doke, let's begin 
in a comfortable seat.

8
00:00:34,560 --> 00:00:38,200
Come on down to the ground.

9
00:00:38,200 --> 00:00:41,280
Sit up nice and tall.

10
00:00:41,280 --> 00:00:43,040
Draw the
shoulders up to the ears.

11
00:00:43,040 --> 00:00:46,280
Take a deep breath
in and as you exhale,

12
00:00:46,280 --> 00:00:49,080
maybe close your eyes
or soften your gaze

13
00:00:49,080 --> 00:00:53,323
and allow your shoulders
and elbows to draw down

14
00:00:53,323 --> 00:00:56,971
as you lift and lengthen

15
00:00:56,971 --> 00:00:59,920
up through the crown.

16
00:01:03,600 --> 00:01:06,880
Gently begin to
deepen your breath.

17
00:01:06,880 --> 00:01:10,777
And notice what it feels like

18
00:01:10,777 --> 00:01:13,945
to be alive today.

19
00:01:17,360 --> 00:01:18,280
And you might be like,

20
00:01:18,280 --> 00:01:22,350
"Oh darn,
feels hard, feels heavy."

21
00:01:24,440 --> 00:01:26,692
And that's all right.

22
00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:29,920
Thank you for sharing your

23
00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:33,880
valuable time
and energy with me.

24
00:01:33,880 --> 00:01:36,204
This session

25
00:01:37,525 --> 00:01:41,006
is about trust.

26
00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:44,600
So we'll take the vocabulary

27
00:01:44,600 --> 00:01:48,591
that we've been
learning together,

28
00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:51,640
put it into a dance,

29
00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:53,920
but feel free to find moments

30
00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:56,996
that are really
individual to you.

31
00:01:58,640 --> 00:02:01,595
Trust your intuition.

32
00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:08,160
And maybe today,

33
00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:11,280
staying open to a connection

34
00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:13,400
with something
bigger than yourself,

35
00:02:13,400 --> 00:02:15,716
uniting with

36
00:02:17,212 --> 00:02:22,381
something bigger 
than this moment.

37
00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:31,080
And if you're like, "Well, 
that sounds kind of good,

38
00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:34,000
"but I don't really
know how to do that,"

39
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:37,570
tap into your breath,
my darling friend.

40
00:02:39,640 --> 00:02:43,340
Let your breath be

41
00:02:44,711 --> 00:02:47,040
the song of your heart,

42
00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:49,985
the song of your spirit today.

43
00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:55,680
Draw the hands together.

44
00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:59,760
You get to choose, thumbs to
third eye or thumbs to sternum.

45
00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:03,640
Inhale in deeply,

46
00:03:03,640 --> 00:03:05,840
hands at heart or
thumbs to third eye,

47
00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:08,720
exhale completely.

48
00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:11,909
Let's breathe together, inhale.

49
00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:15,413
Exhale together.

50
00:03:17,250 --> 00:03:20,880
Good, inhale together.

51
00:03:20,880 --> 00:03:23,630
Exhale bat the eyelashes open

52
00:03:23,630 --> 00:03:27,360
and let's come
forward onto all fours.

53
00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:28,760
Inhale, drop the belly,

54
00:03:28,760 --> 00:03:33,200
open the chest,
lengthen through the crown.

55
00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:36,360
Exhale, round through
the spine, chin to chest.

56
00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:41,240
Crown chakra points down
towards the core of the earth.

57
00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:45,984
Inhale, guide it up
to the sky, the stars.

58
00:03:47,410 --> 00:03:50,855
Exhale, guide it down

59
00:03:50,855 --> 00:03:53,695
to the core of the earth.

60
00:03:54,740 --> 00:03:57,925
Inhale, guide it up.

61
00:03:59,870 --> 00:04:02,080
Exhale, guide it down.

62
00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:05,280
Keep moving with the
sound of your breath.

63
00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:09,360
And so you know the
gross movement here.

64
00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:12,626
There's an opportunity here

65
00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:18,240
to just think a little
bit outside the mat,

66
00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:20,640
beyond the four
corners of the mat.

67
00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:24,760
The truth is you've already
been doing this the whole time.

68
00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:29,600
Sending energy way out
beyond the physical body.

69
00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:37,000
Connecting to
something bigger than yourself,

70
00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:39,516
whatever that means to you.

71
00:04:45,490 --> 00:04:49,520
Now, just like we did
in our Day 28 practice,

72
00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:52,480
start to veer off
the railroad tracks,

73
00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:56,360
trust your intuition,
listen to your body,

74
00:04:56,360 --> 00:04:57,600
Find What Feels Good.

75
00:04:57,600 --> 00:04:59,560
Maybe you take it in circles.

76
00:05:00,840 --> 00:05:04,800
Maybe you bump the
hips left to right.

77
00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:06,960
Maybe it's an
Extended Child's Pose

78
00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:11,920
or you come all the way
forward into a Cobra or Sphinx.

79
00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:14,449
Move with your breath.

80
00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:20,640
And then take whatever dance

81
00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:23,120
you're starting
to cultivate here,

82
00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:24,760
take it into that squat.

83
00:05:24,760 --> 00:05:26,120
So you'll curl the toes under

84
00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:28,660
and slowly take 
it all the way back

85
00:05:28,660 --> 00:05:31,560
into your Froggy Squat.

86
00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:34,440
And same thing here,
soft easy movement.

87
00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:36,993
Maybe you find a sway.

88
00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:41,874
Maybe the palms come up.

89
00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:48,120
And let's take
the hands forward,

90
00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:49,760
spread the fingertips and

91
00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:52,920
think about the
center of your body.

92
00:05:52,920 --> 00:05:54,840
Navel draws back
in towards the spine,

93
00:05:54,840 --> 00:05:57,880
lifting up as you
shift your knees forward,

94
00:05:57,880 --> 00:05:59,480
walk the toes together.

95
00:06:01,080 --> 00:06:03,840
And this is it,
just rocking front to back,

96
00:06:03,840 --> 00:06:08,018
gaze forward,
extension through the crown.

97
00:06:11,240 --> 00:06:12,560
Lovely.

98
00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:15,440
Now drop the heels,
crown of the head to the earth,

99
00:06:15,440 --> 00:06:16,720
Forward Fold.

100
00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:21,061
Bend your knees as much
as you need here, breathe deep.

101
00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:30,320
Then slowly walk the hands

102
00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:32,200
forward all the
way to your Plank,

103
00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:36,640
lots of energy reaching
from the crown of your head here.

104
00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:39,640
Heels reach back,
press away from your yoga mat.

105
00:06:39,640 --> 00:06:41,760
You got this.
Breathe in.

106
00:06:41,760 --> 00:06:43,400
Breathe out.

107
00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:45,070
Breathe in.

108
00:06:45,070 --> 00:06:47,360
Breathe out, 
Downward Facing Dog.

109
00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:48,634
Nice.

110
00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:53,334
Bend one knee
and then the other.

111
00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:02,765
Find that nice
audible breath here.

112
00:07:07,760 --> 00:07:10,680
And after some soft,
easy movement in Downward Dog,

113
00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:12,320
when you feel satisfied,

114
00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:15,048
make your way to
the top of your mat.

115
00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:19,800
And when you get there,
you decide,

116
00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:23,360
feet together
or hip width apart.

117
00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:27,054
Just nice conscious footing,
toes pointing forward.

118
00:07:28,480 --> 00:07:30,000
Take some breaths here.

119
00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:32,640
Find some soft,
easy movement,

120
00:07:32,640 --> 00:07:34,320
waking up the whole body.

121
00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:37,440
So we're not working
in just isolated parts,

122
00:07:37,440 --> 00:07:41,938
but considering the
body as one moving part.

123
00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:52,320
Now ground through the feet,
find center,

124
00:07:52,320 --> 00:07:56,596
bend the knees generously
and slowly roll up.

125
00:08:02,880 --> 00:08:06,478
Stack up through the spine,
lift your heart

126
00:08:06,478 --> 00:08:07,840
and boom, you're ready.

127
00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:12,080
Think about the energy that's
running from the crown of the

128
00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:14,920
head to the tip of the
tailbone and let your

129
00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:19,720
Mountain Pose really
be an energetic pose,

130
00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:22,868
whatever that
means for you today.

131
00:08:24,480 --> 00:08:27,320
Maybe it goes beyond
the crown of the head,

132
00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:32,338
beyond the soles of the feet,
beyond the fingertips.

133
00:08:36,760 --> 00:08:37,880
And then bend your knees,

134
00:08:37,880 --> 00:08:41,800
sweep the arms all
the way up and overhead.

135
00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:46,720
Exhale, Forward Fold
all the way down.

136
00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:49,640
Inhale, extend,
send the fingertips back,

137
00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:52,040
airplane arms,
crown of the head forward,

138
00:08:52,040 --> 00:08:53,280
pause here.

139
00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:55,440
Draw the shoulder
blades together and again,

140
00:08:55,440 --> 00:08:56,760
what if that energy moves

141
00:08:56,760 --> 00:09:00,840
beyond the physical body and
extends out through the crown,

142
00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:03,840
the feet, the tail,
the fingertips.

143
00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:06,280
Does that change the way you

144
00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:09,800
breathe in the posture
and the way you feel?

145
00:09:09,800 --> 00:09:12,450
Inhale in here.

146
00:09:12,450 --> 00:09:14,560
Exhale to release.

147
00:09:14,560 --> 00:09:15,560
Nice.

148
00:09:15,560 --> 00:09:18,960
Fingertips come to the mat,
step the right foot back,

149
00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:22,800
lower the right knee, inhale,
sweep the arms all the way up.

150
00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:25,120
Big breath, big stretch here.

151
00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:29,280
Exhale, fingertips release,
pull the left hip crease back,

152
00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:31,200
flex your left toes 
towards your face.

153
00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:33,720
Breathe in.

154
00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:35,840
Breathe out.

155
00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:39,057
Keep extension through
the crown as you breathe in.

156
00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:42,800
And then breathe out,
rolling through that left foot,

157
00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:44,240
come back to your lunge.

158
00:09:44,240 --> 00:09:45,440
Lift the right knee.

159
00:09:45,440 --> 00:09:48,320
Now inhale, sweep the arms
forward, up and back again.

160
00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:50,120
This time back knee lifted.

161
00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:52,560
But if you want, you can
always keep it lowered, right?

162
00:09:52,560 --> 00:09:54,880
We know this.

163
00:09:54,880 --> 00:09:57,360
Listen to your body,
inhale, lift the head,

164
00:09:57,360 --> 00:09:58,880
the heart up.

165
00:09:58,880 --> 00:10:02,440
Exhale, fingertips come
all the way to the mat.

166
00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:03,680
Plant the palms,

167
00:10:03,680 --> 00:10:05,960
step the left toes back,
inhale in here,

168
00:10:05,960 --> 00:10:07,840
feel free to lower the knees.

169
00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:10,880
Exhale all the way to the belly.

170
00:10:10,880 --> 00:10:13,067
Inhale for Cobra.

171
00:10:14,440 --> 00:10:16,160
Exhale to soften and release.

172
00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:18,440
Thank you, Benji.

173
00:10:18,440 --> 00:10:22,560
Inhale to press up to
all fours or Plank, your choice.

174
00:10:22,560 --> 00:10:24,560
Exhale, Downward Facing Dog.

175
00:10:24,560 --> 00:10:27,600
Inhale in deeply here.

176
00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:29,480
Exhale.

177
00:10:29,480 --> 00:10:31,840
Inhale to look forward.

178
00:10:31,840 --> 00:10:33,920
Exhale to make your way
to the top of your mat.

179
00:10:33,920 --> 00:10:36,040
Thank you, buddy.

180
00:10:36,040 --> 00:10:37,902
Forward Fold.

181
00:10:39,680 --> 00:10:43,320
Inhale, halfway lift,
airplane arms find length,

182
00:10:43,320 --> 00:10:45,440
extend through the crown.

183
00:10:45,440 --> 00:10:48,766
Exhale to soften and fold.

184
00:10:50,080 --> 00:10:51,880
Beautiful.
Fingertips come to the mat,

185
00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:53,400
step the left foot back,

186
00:10:53,400 --> 00:10:54,800
lower the left knee 
to the ground.

187
00:10:54,800 --> 00:10:56,440
Front knee over front ankle,

188
00:10:56,440 --> 00:10:58,480
inhale, sweep the 
arms all the way up.

189
00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:00,480
Big breath, big stretch.

190
00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:03,000
Exhale all the way down.

191
00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:04,240
Pull the right hip crease back,

192
00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:06,120
flex the right
toes towards the face.

193
00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:08,560
Breathe in.

194
00:11:08,560 --> 00:11:10,080
Breathe out.

195
00:11:10,080 --> 00:11:13,560
Length through the
crown as you breathe in.

196
00:11:13,560 --> 00:11:17,680
Breathe out,
roll through that right foot.

197
00:11:17,680 --> 00:11:19,080
Lift the left knee.

198
00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:21,560
Inhale, sweep the
arms up, high lunge.

199
00:11:21,560 --> 00:11:24,080
Big breath, big stretch.

200
00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:25,720
Exhale, bring it
all the way down.

201
00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:27,760
Plant the palms, step it back.

202
00:11:27,760 --> 00:11:29,400
Knees can lower
if you like here.

203
00:11:29,400 --> 00:11:31,120
Inhale, shift forward.

204
00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:35,160
Exhale, belly to Cobra
or Chaturanga to Up Dog.

205
00:11:35,160 --> 00:11:37,200
Use an inhale
to lift your heart,

206
00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:39,080
lengthen through the crown.

207
00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:41,600
Exhale to soften and fold.

208
00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:43,960
Press up to all fours or Plank.

209
00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:45,263
Inhale.

210
00:11:46,280 --> 00:11:49,544
Exhale, Downward Facing Dog.

211
00:11:51,200 --> 00:11:53,760
Inhale, lift the
right leg up high.

212
00:11:53,760 --> 00:11:57,360
Exhale, shift it
forward, step it all the way up.

213
00:11:57,360 --> 00:11:59,960
Back knee lowered or lifted,
your choice.

214
00:11:59,960 --> 00:12:04,240
Inhale, sweep the arms all
the way forward, up and back.

215
00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:06,320
Breathe in.

216
00:12:06,320 --> 00:12:08,280
Breathe out,
relax the shoulders.

217
00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:12,960
Breathe in, maybe carve a
line with your nose, look up.

218
00:12:12,960 --> 00:12:17,160
On your exhale,
slowly rain the fingertips down.

219
00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:18,600
Left hand comes to the earth.

220
00:12:18,600 --> 00:12:20,960
Inhale, right fingertips 
to the sky.

221
00:12:20,960 --> 00:12:22,560
Squeeze your right knee in just

222
00:12:22,560 --> 00:12:26,800
a bit as you pull
your right hip crease back.

223
00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:28,200
So a little opposition there.

224
00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:30,520
Inhale in,
lengthen through the crown.

225
00:12:30,520 --> 00:12:33,680
Exhale, right hand comes
all the way down to the earth.

226
00:12:33,680 --> 00:12:35,080
Step the right toes back.

227
00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:38,160
Inhale in, exhale,
straight to Downward Facing Dog.

228
00:12:38,160 --> 00:12:40,080
Straight to Dog.

229
00:12:40,080 --> 00:12:42,840
Inhale, lift the
left leg up high.

230
00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:44,920
Exhale, shift it forward,
nice and easy.

231
00:12:44,920 --> 00:12:48,720
Step the left foot
into your lunge.

232
00:12:48,720 --> 00:12:51,680
Sweep the arms up,
back knee lowered or lifted.

233
00:12:51,680 --> 00:12:55,080
Inhale, 
big breath here, big stretch.

234
00:12:55,080 --> 00:12:58,160
Exhale, relax the shoulders.

235
00:12:58,160 --> 00:13:01,680
Inhale, carve a line
with the nose, look up.

236
00:13:01,680 --> 00:13:04,400
Exhale, rain it down.

237
00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:06,160
Right hand to the earth.

238
00:13:06,160 --> 00:13:08,760
Inhale, sweep the
left fingertips up.

239
00:13:08,760 --> 00:13:10,480
So we're pulling the
left hip crease back

240
00:13:10,480 --> 00:13:14,040
but we're also
hugging the left knee in.

241
00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:16,142
Beautiful. Inhale.

242
00:13:16,142 --> 00:13:18,680
Exhale, left hand to the earth.

243
00:13:18,680 --> 00:13:19,880
Step it back to Plank.

244
00:13:19,880 --> 00:13:23,760
Inhale in, exhale,
Downward Facing Dog.

245
00:13:23,760 --> 00:13:24,800
Nice.

246
00:13:24,800 --> 00:13:28,240
Inhale in here,
bend your knees, look forward.

247
00:13:28,240 --> 00:13:31,640
Exhale, make your 
way to the top.

248
00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:34,200
Inhale, halfway lift,
airplane arms.

249
00:13:34,200 --> 00:13:38,320
Send the fingertips back,
crown forward.

250
00:13:38,320 --> 00:13:41,026
Exhale, soften and release.

251
00:13:42,280 --> 00:13:44,080
Root to rise here,
bend your knees.

252
00:13:44,080 --> 00:13:46,000
Inhale, spread the fingertips.

253
00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:49,440
Reach for the sky.
Take up space here.

254
00:13:49,440 --> 00:13:53,880
And then palms come together
and slide down into home.

255
00:13:53,880 --> 00:13:55,960
Tuck the chin,
head over heart,

256
00:13:55,960 --> 00:13:58,080
heart over pelvis here.

257
00:13:58,080 --> 00:14:00,400
Preparing for a Tree Pose.

258
00:14:00,400 --> 00:14:03,520
Shift your weight to
the left foot slowly.

259
00:14:03,520 --> 00:14:05,680
And from center,
navel draws in and up.

260
00:14:05,680 --> 00:14:07,440
We lift the right knee.

261
00:14:07,440 --> 00:14:09,960
You got this.
Standing One-Legged Tadasana.

262
00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:12,640
Of course, feel free to always

263
00:14:12,640 --> 00:14:16,635
trust your support
system around you, it's there.

264
00:14:18,160 --> 00:14:21,680
Then we'll open the right hip,
nice and slow.

265
00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:24,280
Maybe right toes
stay on the ground.

266
00:14:24,280 --> 00:14:27,280
Support system right there.

267
00:14:27,280 --> 00:14:29,680
Maybe the calf.

268
00:14:29,680 --> 00:14:31,340
Or maybe we 
grab that right heel

269
00:14:31,340 --> 00:14:34,320
and bring it into
the inseam of the left thigh.

270
00:14:34,320 --> 00:14:37,440
Find that connection,
that movement of opposing force.

271
00:14:37,440 --> 00:14:40,435
It's hugging into
the midline here.

272
00:14:42,160 --> 00:14:46,040
And then maybe you play,
fingertips up.

273
00:14:46,040 --> 00:14:48,518
Maybe you gaze up.

274
00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:54,603
Maybe you take a variation
you've never taken before.

275
00:15:00,560 --> 00:15:02,880
Take a deep breath in.

276
00:15:02,880 --> 00:15:04,720
Exhale, slow and steady.

277
00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:08,720
Come back to that
Standing One-Legged Tadasana.

278
00:15:08,720 --> 00:15:10,240
And then with so
much love and care,

279
00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:11,520
you can place
the right foot down

280
00:15:11,520 --> 00:15:13,650
and take it
to the other side.

281
00:15:14,920 --> 00:15:16,560
And notice how
this side is different.

282
00:15:16,560 --> 00:15:21,515
You might need to recruit a
support system on this side.

283
00:15:25,160 --> 00:15:30,156
Trust that you know
what's right for your body today.

284
00:15:32,680 --> 00:15:38,120
And trust that staying present
with your breath will help

285
00:15:38,120 --> 00:15:41,080
guide you further in the
evolution of your practice.

286
00:15:41,080 --> 00:15:44,360
In other words, don't give up.

287
00:15:44,360 --> 00:15:46,834
Don't give up.

288
00:15:56,680 --> 00:15:59,043
Find something new here.

289
00:16:02,720 --> 00:16:06,480
And then we'll meet in that
Standing One-Legged Tadasana.

290
00:16:06,480 --> 00:16:08,360
So even if you're a dancing,
falling tree,

291
00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:09,560
let's come back to that

292
00:16:09,560 --> 00:16:12,640
Standing One-Legged
Tadasana for one breath.

293
00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:14,120
Inhale.

294
00:16:14,120 --> 00:16:16,240
And exhale, place it down.

295
00:16:16,240 --> 00:16:19,120
Big breath to reach the
fingertips all the way up.

296
00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:20,680
Full body stretch.

297
00:16:20,680 --> 00:16:24,640
Exhale, fold it
down all the way.

298
00:16:24,640 --> 00:16:27,520
Inhale, airplane arms,
halfway lift.

299
00:16:27,520 --> 00:16:29,840
Lengthen through
the crown of the head.

300
00:16:29,840 --> 00:16:33,200
Exhale to soften and fold.

301
00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:37,880
Bend the knees,
step or hop it back to Plank.

302
00:16:37,880 --> 00:16:41,480
Inhale, shift forward,
reach through the crown.

303
00:16:41,480 --> 00:16:45,600
Exhale, belly to Cobra or
Chaturanga to Upward Facing Dog.

304
00:16:45,600 --> 00:16:48,691
Take a deep breath here
as you open your heart.

305
00:16:49,920 --> 00:16:54,520
Exhale, Child's Pose, 
your version.

306
00:16:54,520 --> 00:16:57,560
Send the hips back.

307
00:16:57,560 --> 00:16:59,499
Melt the heart.

308
00:17:00,640 --> 00:17:03,182
Stretch the arms forward.

309
00:17:04,360 --> 00:17:06,720
Inhale, lots of love in.

310
00:17:06,720 --> 00:17:09,960
Exhale, actively reach
the hip points back.

311
00:17:09,960 --> 00:17:12,120
Feel that
length in the low back.

312
00:17:12,120 --> 00:17:17,080
Feel that length
in the side body.

313
00:17:17,080 --> 00:17:20,146
Soften the skin of the forehead.

314
00:17:26,920 --> 00:17:30,120
Press into the palms,
slowly come back up.

315
00:17:30,120 --> 00:17:32,050
We're gonna walk 
the knees together

316
00:17:32,050 --> 00:17:34,000
and curl the toes under.

317
00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:39,000
Sit back on the heels and
peek at me if you need to.

318
00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:41,560
We're gonna learn
Bunny Posture here.

319
00:17:41,560 --> 00:17:44,160
So we're drawing
the knees together.

320
00:17:44,160 --> 00:17:49,000
We can use a block to bring
the earth up to us if we like.

321
00:17:49,000 --> 00:17:51,280
But we can also
practice without.

322
00:17:51,280 --> 00:17:53,520
So from Bunny Posture,
I'm gonna squeeze the legs.

323
00:17:53,520 --> 00:17:56,240
I'm gonna draw energy up
from the pelvic floor all the way

324
00:17:56,240 --> 00:17:58,480
up through the spine
just like we've been doing.

325
00:17:58,480 --> 00:18:00,560
All the way up to
the crown of the head.

326
00:18:00,560 --> 00:18:04,754
Crown of the head's gonna
come to the block or the mat.

327
00:18:06,040 --> 00:18:08,418
Breathing deep here.

328
00:18:09,240 --> 00:18:11,600
And then release.

329
00:18:11,600 --> 00:18:14,000
Next round, 
we're gonna go back in.

330
00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:15,760
But this time we might grab the

331
00:18:15,760 --> 00:18:18,150
outer edges of the ankles

332
00:18:18,150 --> 00:18:20,959
or outer edges of the heels.

333
00:18:22,600 --> 00:18:24,680
Then from here, inhale in.

334
00:18:24,680 --> 00:18:29,160
Exhale, I'm gonna lift
up just like in Cat Pose.

335
00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:31,840
Inhale in, exhale,
straightening the arms,

336
00:18:31,840 --> 00:18:33,400
lifting the hips and

337
00:18:33,400 --> 00:18:36,240
little to no pressure on
the crown of the head,

338
00:18:36,240 --> 00:18:38,820
not unlike headstands.

339
00:18:40,320 --> 00:18:44,000
We'll lift the belly up,
breathe.

340
00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:46,401
Give it a try.

341
00:18:47,960 --> 00:18:51,480
And then slowly release.

342
00:18:51,480 --> 00:18:53,320
Bunny Posture.

343
00:18:53,320 --> 00:18:56,880
From here, lift the knees,
come to your Froggy Squat.

344
00:18:56,880 --> 00:18:58,320
Hi, buddy.

345
00:18:59,760 --> 00:19:00,840
Crow Practice.

346
00:19:00,840 --> 00:19:03,280
So we're moving
from Bunny to Crow.

347
00:19:03,280 --> 00:19:04,800
Let's do it.

348
00:19:04,800 --> 00:19:06,720
Fingertips on the mat, inhale.

349
00:19:06,720 --> 00:19:10,200
Navel draws in and up,
find that core connection.

350
00:19:10,200 --> 00:19:11,400
This is a core exercise.

351
00:19:11,400 --> 00:19:14,920
We're gonna lift the hips,
lift the knees as high as we

352
00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:18,600
can up to the armpit chest
and just find that Drishti,

353
00:19:18,600 --> 00:19:20,080
that focal point out in front.

354
00:19:20,080 --> 00:19:23,240
Crown of the head is
extending forward, not down.

355
00:19:23,240 --> 00:19:26,480
If the crown is down,
you're gonna do a somersault.

356
00:19:26,480 --> 00:19:31,040
Maybe you lift one toe 
and then the other.

357
00:19:31,040 --> 00:19:34,560
Maybe both toes lift off.

358
00:19:34,560 --> 00:19:37,320
Again, crown of the head,
reaching forward,

359
00:19:37,320 --> 00:19:40,840
navel drawing up just
like in Bunny Posture.

360
00:19:40,840 --> 00:19:43,064
Breathing.

361
00:19:47,200 --> 00:19:51,800
If you have a block,
sometimes it's nice in a little

362
00:19:51,800 --> 00:19:55,080
Crow practice play to
give yourself a little perch.

363
00:19:55,080 --> 00:19:58,831
Just gives you
(chuckles) a little lift.

364
00:20:01,400 --> 00:20:04,932
So you can create
that fulcrum here.

365
00:20:07,760 --> 00:20:09,920
Rock back and forth.

366
00:20:09,920 --> 00:20:13,360
Hug those low ribs in.

367
00:20:13,360 --> 00:20:16,375
Crown of the head
reaching forward.

368
00:20:19,760 --> 00:20:23,680
Then after a
little bit of Crow play,

369
00:20:23,680 --> 00:20:26,600
we're gonna come
back to all fours.

370
00:20:26,600 --> 00:20:28,160
Shake it out, let it go.

371
00:20:28,160 --> 00:20:31,200
Swing the legs
to one side, any side,

372
00:20:31,200 --> 00:20:34,902
and come to lie on your back.

373
00:20:40,480 --> 00:20:41,800
Hug the knees into the chest.

374
00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:46,128
Give yourself a little massage
just for a breath or two.

375
00:20:50,760 --> 00:20:52,040
Then extend the legs out long.

376
00:20:52,040 --> 00:20:54,160
You're gonna zip
them tight together.

377
00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:58,690
Point the toes and walk the 
wrists underneath the glutes.

378
00:21:02,120 --> 00:21:05,000
So we're opening up
through the front body here,

379
00:21:05,000 --> 00:21:06,534
pointing the toes.

380
00:21:07,720 --> 00:21:10,080
Palms press actively.

381
00:21:10,080 --> 00:21:13,036
So not passively but
actively into the mat.

382
00:21:14,520 --> 00:21:15,880
Inhale in.

383
00:21:15,880 --> 00:21:18,560
Watch me first before you do it.

384
00:21:18,560 --> 00:21:19,800
Inhale in, exhale.

385
00:21:19,800 --> 00:21:20,960
You're gonna press into your

386
00:21:20,960 --> 00:21:24,960
forearms like Sphinx and
you're gonna lift your chest.

387
00:21:24,960 --> 00:21:29,200
Crown of the head may
come to the earth, may not.

388
00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:32,840
Opening up through
the throat, looking back.

389
00:21:32,840 --> 00:21:38,346
We call this a
variation of Fish Pose.

390
00:21:40,680 --> 00:21:41,560
Let's give it a try.

391
00:21:41,560 --> 00:21:43,560
When you're ready,
point the toes.

392
00:21:43,560 --> 00:21:46,280
Press actively into
the palms, elbows walk in.

393
00:21:46,280 --> 00:21:48,360
We press into the forearms,
press into the elbows,

394
00:21:48,360 --> 00:21:50,000
just like Sphinx Pose.

395
00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:54,232
Lift the chest, crown of
the head comes to the earth.

396
00:21:55,440 --> 00:21:57,314
Breathe.

397
00:22:07,880 --> 00:22:10,120
And then slowly
hug those low ribs in.

398
00:22:10,120 --> 00:22:12,600
Keep active in the
palms as you release.

399
00:22:12,600 --> 00:22:15,800
Tuck the chin,
release the arms,

400
00:22:15,800 --> 00:22:18,760
and we'll hug both knees
up slowly into the chest,

401
00:22:18,760 --> 00:22:21,240
knees wide.

402
00:22:21,240 --> 00:22:23,680
And then take it to Happy Baby
whenever you're ready.

403
00:22:23,680 --> 00:22:27,400
Grabbing the outer edges of
the feet or the inner arches.

404
00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:29,880
Kicking the soles of
the feet up towards the sky.

405
00:22:29,880 --> 00:22:32,937
Lengthening the tailbone towards
the front edge of your mat.

406
00:22:34,240 --> 00:22:37,060
Noticing how you feel.

407
00:22:43,640 --> 00:22:45,800
And then we'll take
it into a Reclined Twist.

408
00:22:45,800 --> 00:22:49,498
So allow the legs to fall
to one side, any side.

409
00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:53,520
Relaxing the shoulders down.

410
00:22:53,520 --> 00:22:56,400
Softening through
the skin of the face.

411
00:22:56,400 --> 00:22:58,440
Relaxing the jaw.

412
00:23:00,623 --> 00:23:02,160
And then rolling
it through center,

413
00:23:02,160 --> 00:23:05,053
taking it to the other side.

414
00:23:10,600 --> 00:23:13,317
Inhaling deeply.

415
00:23:14,880 --> 00:23:17,858
Exhaling completely.

416
00:23:20,510 --> 00:23:23,080
And slowly bring it
all the way back up.

417
00:23:23,080 --> 00:23:25,600
Knees bent, soles of
the feet to the mat.

418
00:23:25,600 --> 00:23:27,520
Center yourself on your mat.

419
00:23:27,520 --> 00:23:30,480
Palms pressed down as we slowly

420
00:23:30,480 --> 00:23:32,360
lift the tailbone all the way up

421
00:23:32,360 --> 00:23:37,864
for one final posture,
Bridge Pose.

422
00:23:41,560 --> 00:23:44,480
Close your eyes here.

423
00:23:44,480 --> 00:23:46,960
Feel the connection of
your feet on the earth,

424
00:23:46,960 --> 00:23:49,040
hands on the earth.

425
00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:52,200
Inhale in.

426
00:23:52,200 --> 00:23:56,040
Exhale, start to
soften through the sternum.

427
00:23:56,040 --> 00:23:58,505
And roll down the spine.

428
00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:02,482
With so much attention,

429
00:24:03,573 --> 00:24:05,342
love and care.

430
00:24:06,600 --> 00:24:08,720
When you're ready,
we can extend one leg out,

431
00:24:08,720 --> 00:24:10,000
then the other.

432
00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:11,560
Turn the palms to face up.

433
00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:14,120
Snuggle the shoulder blades
underneath your heart space.

434
00:24:14,120 --> 00:24:18,108
Maybe walk your feet,
your ankles out wide today.

435
00:24:19,520 --> 00:24:21,320
Inhale, lots of love in.

436
00:24:21,320 --> 00:24:23,960
Biggest breath
you've taken all day.

437
00:24:23,960 --> 00:24:25,760
Exhale, lots of love out.

438
00:24:25,760 --> 00:24:28,120
Let everything go.
A flash of surrender.

439
00:24:28,120 --> 00:24:31,973
Can we practice?
Can we trust the stillness?

440
00:24:37,840 --> 00:24:41,156
A total letting go.

441
00:24:48,440 --> 00:24:51,526
And it's in this
shape that we

442
00:24:53,786 --> 00:24:56,053
surrender.

443
00:24:58,320 --> 00:25:01,248
And for me, for me,

444
00:25:01,248 --> 00:25:04,160
unite with something bigger

445
00:25:05,507 --> 00:25:07,901
through that surrender.

446
00:25:17,800 --> 00:25:20,740
So trust the union of yoga

447
00:25:20,740 --> 00:25:24,800
can be of your 
breath and your body,

448
00:25:24,800 --> 00:25:28,557
your guts,
your intuition and your heart.

449
00:25:28,557 --> 00:25:33,882
It can also be union of
yourself with your bigger self.

450
00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:37,320
Never forget.

451
00:25:37,320 --> 00:25:39,320
Love you guys.
Let's bring the palms together.

452
00:25:39,320 --> 00:25:42,400
Thumbs to third eye.

453
00:25:42,400 --> 00:25:45,680
Oh gosh, we have one more
day of this particular journey

454
00:25:45,680 --> 00:25:48,080
together and in every
end is a new beginning.

455
00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:51,010
Tomorrow will be different.

456
00:25:51,010 --> 00:25:55,160
And I cannot wait to
share that experience with you.

457
00:25:55,160 --> 00:25:57,759
Thank you for showing up.
Let's take a deep breath in.

458
00:25:59,480 --> 00:26:02,620
And a long breath out
to close this practice.

459
00:26:04,160 --> 00:26:05,700
Namaste.

460
00:26:06,861 --> 00:26:11,683
(upbeat rhythmic music)
