inhale. exhale. inhale. exhale, release. findyour rhythm. listen to your breath. keep it going. five more. one more. and release. extended child's pose this time. knees niceand wide. or downward facing dog. so we're working on all levels here. depends whereyou are and how you're feeling today. we're in downward facing dog or extended child'spose. catch your breath. then slowly, we'll come back up. okay. last thing here and then we flip backonto our backs. yay! we're going to spread the palms wide, come to a top of a push-up.everyone, come to that top of a push-up. so this time, we're going to bring the toes inline with the hip points. and again, we're
going to press away from the earth. draw yourlower belly in, make sure the hips aren't coming up too high and towards the sky. seeif you can really find that sit bone to heel connection. okay? and from here, i inhale in. exhale. touchthe left toes off the mat. inhale to center. exhale, touch the right toes off the mat.keep your gaze forward, neck nice and long. we dance here. find your breath. listen toyour exhale. pick up your pace. and then after your dance, slowly lower the knees, curl thetoes under, and take a moment to rotate the wrist. maybe check in with that neck again.awesome. so my idea of conditioning is to keep it niceand light, and fun and loose. so if counting
is your thing, then count. but if i couldinvite you to do anything, it is to make breathing your thing. get in the rhythm of things withyour breath, okay? we're going to do that dance one more time. let's do it. pressingaway from the earth. just so you can find your breath. so there really is no right orwrong. but use your breath as a little soundtrack, as a little metronome for your work here onthe mat. here we come. plank pose. inhale. exhale. toe tapping out. we can also some onto the elbows here, myfriends. everyone, keep your hips nice and low. here we go. five more. and three, four,and last one. and lower down. awesome. curl the toes under again. we roll up. this timeloop the shoulders, the wrists. and then my
favorite thing, we turn and swirl coming backonto flat back. awesome. inhale, extend the fingertips and toes out long. take a fullbody stretch. and exhale, float the fingertips down. palms are going to come underneath thebuttocks here. so this takes a second to get situated in. i'm going to move my mic a little bit here.cool. palms face down. we draw the shoulder blades in and together and down. and herewe go guys, we're almost done. we got this. press into all 10 fingerprints. send the legsout long. cool. so first things first, we draw the navel to the spine. we really, reallylengthen through the lower back as we draw the navel in. so here's me drawing belly buttonin, uddiyana bandha. and i like to really
keep awareness through all of my palm here. great. neck is nice and long. navel to spine.as i hug the knees in, send the legs up. so i'm going to flex through the feet here, pressingthrough the heels, slowly being to lower down. lower down only as far as to where your lowerback stays flush with the mat or your navel stays engaged. so that will be a little differentfor everyone. maybe you can lower all the way to here. maybe it's here, maybe it's here.meet your edge. so find that place where you feel still support in your lower back. andwhen you feel like you've met your edge, your lower back's about to go, then draw your kneesback in. so we stay nice and supportive in the lower back here.
inhale, extend. exhale, press through yourheels, lower down. when you meet your edge, navel to spine, hug it in. so you can finda little softness here as we build strength. keeping a nice awareness in the neck and theface. and mix and matching here. so sometimes i come and my edge is here, and i'm like,okay navel. draw in. and sometimes i'm able to lower my legs, my mermaid tail, as i liketo imagine, all the way to here. and then i reel it in. so play here. so we're bringing a little yogic sensibilityto this abdominal work here. absolutely. and if you keep returning to this video, you'llfeel so awesome and be so surprised how one day you're here, rolling it in, and then oneday, you're just so mindfully, and with such
great integrity, come all the way to here.and reel it back in. keep going, my friends. don't forget to breathe. awesome. let's do five more. hey, we got this.move at your own pace. so you don't have to look at the video here. it's awesome. we knowwhat we're doing. we're working it out. we're spending this time on ourselves. so that wecan be stronger, happier, healthier, shinier human beings. finish it up. awesome. now, we're going to send the fingertips leftto right when you're done. i begin to rock a little, back and forth, letting the kneeshover in this recline twist variation. it should feel so awesome for your side body,great on the abdominals. also really good
for those digestive organs. take out any bloating.and inspire you to keep deepening the breath. so back and forth we go. and last but not least, here we go. we sendthe toes up towards the sky. you can keep a soft bend in your knee. it doesn't haveto be straight here. but a nice energetic lift through the heel. so even if we're notstraightening here, we keep a nice brightness in the feet. okay. this time, we're goingto reach the arms up and overhead, and you can soften, bend at the elbows. either cactusarms here, or ballerina arms here. for me and my shoulders, it feels kind of nice tocome to this football, aztec-y, cactus arms. okay.
so this movement is small and strong, workingthose deep, deep muscles. as we inhale, we lift the tailbone up, navel draws down. aswe exhale, we release. inhale, working deep. inhale, lift tail. exhale, lower. so there'sa tendency here to do this. inhale, kick the toes back. exhale, lower. inhale, lift. exhale,lower. and yeah, i'm working my muscles pretty goodhere. but i encourage you to make it smaller, so you can get those deep, deep muscles. reallyworking from the inside out here. this is the abdominal work that's going to help youfly in some of your asanas, warrior iiis, some of those arm balances. this is also reallygreat for the back. great for the posture. so again, try to avoid kicking your toes uptowards your nose. and keep it nice and small,
lifting and releasing. lifting and releasing.keep it going. ooh, starting to feel it now, for sure. keep it going. so just when you feel like giving up, or ifyou've already taken your break, hop back in and let's finish this out together. ready?here we go. and we release. come to that supta baddha konasana one more time. bring the handsto the belly and give yourself a little rub down. hey oh. oh yeah baby. all right. nicework today. we're going to send the fingertips out wide,oops sorry, and then the toes out long. and really truly i invite you. do me a favor.spend a couple minutes here in this pose here, shavasan. yeah. even if it's just a minute.closing your eyes. relaxing the weight of
your body completely and fully into the mat.so you can repeat this video again. if you're not ready to rest, you can do this whole videoone more time. if you are ready to rest, give yourself a moment or two here to just balanceout the energetic body. honor your time on your mat, and with yourself. love is in theair. deep breath in. and long exhale out. nice work, everyone. namaste.
