00:00:00.467 --> 00:00:01.802
- Hello, my darling friends.

00:00:01.802 --> 00:00:04.471
Welcome to Home, 
your 30-day yoga journey.

00:00:04.471 --> 00:00:06.506
Today is Day 12.

00:00:06.506 --> 00:00:08.675
Today I'm gonna invite you to
bring a blanket to class if you

00:00:08.675 --> 00:00:10.473
have one, if not, no worries,

00:00:10.473 --> 00:00:14.314
because today we 
focus on nurturing.

00:00:14.314 --> 00:00:15.472
Let's get started.

00:00:17.845 --> 00:00:22.000
(upbeat gentle music)

00:00:35.802 --> 00:00:38.472
Alright, let's begin 
today's session in

00:00:38.472 --> 00:00:39.873
a comfortable 
seat of your choice.

00:00:39.873 --> 00:00:41.775
Come on down to the ground.

00:00:41.775 --> 00:00:46.046
You can lay your blanket out
like I have here or just keep it

00:00:46.046 --> 00:00:47.381
off to the side for now.

00:00:47.381 --> 00:00:49.808
We're gonna sit up really tall.

00:00:50.784 --> 00:00:52.572
And take a deep breath in.

00:00:53.282 --> 00:00:55.455
And as you exhale, just 
allow your shoulders to drop,

00:00:55.455 --> 00:00:57.791
really come into 
the present moment here.

00:00:57.791 --> 00:01:00.193
Whatever you're bringing to 
the mat remember, it's all good.

00:01:00.193 --> 00:01:02.896
Today's practice is low to
the ground and super yummy.

00:01:02.896 --> 00:01:06.233
We're gonna just kind of nurture
the body and the spirit even if

00:01:06.233 --> 00:01:09.970
you've had kind of a monkey
brain or if you're feeling a

00:01:09.970 --> 00:01:13.774
little stressed, this is gonna
be an efficient practice

00:01:13.774 --> 00:01:17.210
to just kind of 
smooth it all out and

00:01:17.210 --> 00:01:19.513
nurture whatever 
is going on today.

00:01:19.513 --> 00:01:21.782
So this is what our 
practice is all about.

00:01:21.782 --> 00:01:23.784
Let's take 
another deep breath in.

00:01:25.326 --> 00:01:27.821
And exhale, 
relax your shoulders.

00:01:27.821 --> 00:01:31.258
It's not about kind of sweeping
what's going on under the rug so

00:01:31.258 --> 00:01:32.982
you can get your workout in.

00:01:32.982 --> 00:01:37.157
No, the yoga practice is

00:01:37.688 --> 00:01:39.463
unique in that way.

00:01:42.669 --> 00:01:44.905
Close your eyes 
or soften your gaze.

00:01:44.905 --> 00:01:47.474
Take one more full 
breath in and as you exhale,

00:01:47.474 --> 00:01:50.877
use that to relax 
your shoulders down

00:01:50.877 --> 00:01:53.408
and just land in the moment.

00:01:54.114 --> 00:01:57.028
Land here in 
your practice, own it.

00:02:02.322 --> 00:02:04.992
Excellent, then we'll 
bring the palms together,

00:02:04.992 --> 00:02:07.194
bow the head to the heart, 
start to feel that stretch

00:02:07.194 --> 00:02:08.028
through the back of the neck.

00:02:08.028 --> 00:02:09.883
Thank you so 
much for showing up.

00:02:09.883 --> 00:02:11.531
You guys are just so incredible.

00:02:11.531 --> 00:02:16.403
I can't believe we are
actually doing this together,

00:02:16.403 --> 00:02:18.038
going on this journey.

00:02:18.038 --> 00:02:21.575
I never take it for 
granted so awesome work.

00:02:21.575 --> 00:02:23.797
Enjoy today's session.
Inhale in.

00:02:24.378 --> 00:02:26.244
Exhale, lift the head.

00:02:26.244 --> 00:02:29.983
We're gonna come into a shape
here where you're gonna want to

00:02:29.983 --> 00:02:34.187
draw your left heel in towards
your body and then you're gonna

00:02:34.187 --> 00:02:37.624
shift your weight so that you
can take your right heel behind

00:02:37.624 --> 00:02:40.460
you and towards 
your right glute.

00:02:40.460 --> 00:02:44.898
And if the hips are tight,
which they likely are,

00:02:44.898 --> 00:02:48.468
we might have a little trouble
dropping this hip down in socket

00:02:48.468 --> 00:02:50.370
but in time we will get there.

00:02:50.370 --> 00:02:53.240
So you can always take 
your blanket and put it right

00:02:53.240 --> 00:02:55.308
underneath this 
glute to support you here.

00:02:56.923 --> 00:02:58.645
So I've been kind 
of playing around here,

00:02:58.645 --> 00:03:01.063
showing up for the at-home 
yoga practice for a while

00:03:01.063 --> 00:03:03.283
so mine's starting to drop here.

00:03:03.283 --> 00:03:06.019
We have this shape that's 
like I'm posing with Benji

00:03:06.019 --> 00:03:08.455
for like my volleyball photo.

00:03:10.939 --> 00:03:13.627
So find the shape and it should

00:03:13.627 --> 00:03:15.607
feel pretty snugly 
in that right hip.

00:03:16.797 --> 00:03:18.165
Alright, then 
we're gonna inhale,

00:03:18.165 --> 00:03:20.067
reach up towards 
the sky, big breath.

00:03:20.067 --> 00:03:22.035
Exhale, you're going to draw
your navel in and up and

00:03:22.035 --> 00:03:23.703
you're going to 
twist to the left.

00:03:23.703 --> 00:03:26.640
Right hand comes to the 
outer edge of the left knee.

00:03:26.640 --> 00:03:29.229
Left fingertips come 
to support you behind.

00:03:29.229 --> 00:03:32.012
And then you're gonna play
here with that right hip socket.

00:03:32.012 --> 00:03:35.150
You gonna move a 
little in and out.

00:03:37.417 --> 00:03:40.120
Sit up nice and 
tall as you breathe in.

00:03:40.120 --> 00:03:42.022
And then use your 
exhale to release.

00:03:42.022 --> 00:03:44.424
We're gonna do a counter-
twist now, be very gentle.

00:03:44.424 --> 00:03:46.860
Left hand comes now to the
outer edge of the right thigh,

00:03:46.860 --> 00:03:48.361
right fingertips behind.

00:03:48.361 --> 00:03:49.763
You're gonna 
collapse a little bit here.

00:03:49.763 --> 00:03:52.966
So we'll use the inhale 
to lift the heart as always.

00:03:52.966 --> 00:03:56.169
Find a lift with the breath in
and exhale twist maybe looking

00:03:56.169 --> 00:03:58.171
past your right shoulder.

00:04:00.440 --> 00:04:03.677
Wonderful, from here inhale in.

00:04:03.677 --> 00:04:05.245
Exhale to slowly release.

00:04:05.245 --> 00:04:08.048
Keep your right heel 
coming in towards center.

00:04:08.048 --> 00:04:09.282
We're gonna slowly, mindfully

00:04:09.282 --> 00:04:11.918
keep right toes active 
as you move here.

00:04:11.918 --> 00:04:15.155
We're gonna extend that right
leg and then we're gonna shift

00:04:15.155 --> 00:04:18.758
our hips so that we 
can face our right toes.

00:04:18.758 --> 00:04:22.195
Head to knee pose, 
Janusirsansan or your version,

00:04:22.195 --> 00:04:23.810
let's see what 
happens here today.

00:04:23.810 --> 00:04:26.766
As we inhale, we're going to
reach the fingertips up high.

00:04:26.766 --> 00:04:28.401
And I'd like to invite you to

00:04:28.401 --> 00:04:30.704
bend your right knee 
as you lift up.

00:04:30.704 --> 00:04:31.938
Then think up and over.

00:04:31.938 --> 00:04:36.176
So low belly draws up and in
as you drape or work towards

00:04:36.176 --> 00:04:38.278
bringing your belly 
towards the top of the thigh.

00:04:38.278 --> 00:04:39.846
That was redundant,
but you got it.

00:04:39.846 --> 00:04:41.748
Belly towards 
the top of the thigh.

00:04:41.748 --> 00:04:44.512
And then from here you can
work to straighten the leg.

00:04:45.619 --> 00:04:47.687
This should feel nurturing.

00:04:47.687 --> 00:04:50.524
You're wanting to be active and
attentive but this should feel

00:04:50.524 --> 00:04:53.656
kind of yummy so you don't need
to slam your nose to the knee.

00:04:53.656 --> 00:04:57.616
We're not taking, um, 
I'm not gonna say that.

00:04:58.441 --> 00:05:00.400
Okay. So I'll stop talking.

00:05:00.400 --> 00:05:02.802
Allow you to listen to 
the sound of your breath here.

00:05:02.802 --> 00:05:04.704
Right knee can be as 
generously as you need.

00:05:04.704 --> 00:05:07.207
You can interlace the 
fingertips around the heel

00:05:07.207 --> 00:05:11.845
or keep them close 
to your center.

00:05:12.943 --> 00:05:15.518
Relax. Wiggle your head, 
listen to your breath.

00:05:27.260 --> 00:05:30.363
Take one more 
cycle of breath here, in.

00:05:31.360 --> 00:05:34.801
Use your exhale to roll 
up and out of the shape.

00:05:35.559 --> 00:05:37.771
Take a second here to 
just notice how you feel.

00:05:37.771 --> 00:05:39.884
Soften through your right foot.

00:05:42.426 --> 00:05:45.559
And then let's switch.
Right heel comes in.

00:05:47.753 --> 00:05:52.538
I think it's a good little tip,

00:05:52.538 --> 00:05:53.687
I think it is a good idea,

00:05:53.687 --> 00:05:55.021
particularly if you're 
new to the practice,

00:05:55.021 --> 00:05:57.557
just keep your feet kind of
active and bright when you're

00:05:57.557 --> 00:05:59.025
moving through different shapes.

00:05:59.025 --> 00:06:00.493
Helps protect the joint.

00:06:00.493 --> 00:06:02.095
It seems like 
such a small thing,

00:06:02.095 --> 00:06:06.706
but trust me, it's good.
It's a good idea.

00:06:06.706 --> 00:06:09.135
So keep those toes 
active as you bring

00:06:09.135 --> 00:06:12.205
your left heel 
towards your left glue.

00:06:12.205 --> 00:06:14.975
We're here. Benji, ready 
for our volleyball photo?

00:06:20.381 --> 00:06:22.943
Just giving everyone a 
second to get in the shape.

00:06:23.917 --> 00:06:25.986
And then just notice the 
sensation on the left side.

00:06:25.986 --> 00:06:29.156
What is different there,
if anything?

00:06:30.056 --> 00:06:32.919
Okay. Here we go.

00:06:32.919 --> 00:06:35.695
Inhale, reaching all the way 
up toward the sky, big breath.

00:06:35.695 --> 00:06:39.599
Lifting from the hip creases all
the way up through the side body

00:06:39.599 --> 00:06:41.001
and then gentle twist.

00:06:41.001 --> 00:06:43.403
Here we go, left hand to the
outer edge of the right knee.

00:06:43.403 --> 00:06:45.585
Right fingertips behind.

00:06:49.242 --> 00:06:51.144
Inhale to lift 
and lengthen here.

00:06:51.144 --> 00:06:53.980
Exhale to twist.

00:06:53.980 --> 00:06:58.661
Moving the energy here that
runs up and down the spine.

00:07:04.958 --> 00:07:06.159
You got to bring the breath.

00:07:06.159 --> 00:07:07.494
Big inhale.

00:07:07.494 --> 00:07:08.374
Lengthen.

00:07:11.149 --> 00:07:11.965
Mhmmm.

00:07:11.965 --> 00:07:14.868
Exhale, slow release.

00:07:14.868 --> 00:07:16.536
Counter-twist.

00:07:16.536 --> 00:07:18.104
Paying attention 
to that left hip.

00:07:18.104 --> 00:07:22.475
Right hand comes to the outer
edge of the left thigh or to

00:07:22.475 --> 00:07:25.308
your dog's head if 
you have one there.

00:07:25.308 --> 00:07:27.379
And then here we go.

00:07:35.282 --> 00:07:38.792
If you feel like you're 
collapsed in the spine,

00:07:38.792 --> 00:07:42.162
lift up from the sternum,
lengthen through the crown and

00:07:42.162 --> 00:07:43.496
then use your tools.

00:07:43.496 --> 00:07:45.899
Find that upward current of
energy through the front body

00:07:45.899 --> 00:07:48.501
and that downward current of
energy through the back body and

00:07:48.501 --> 00:07:51.671
see if that changes 
your shape at all.

00:07:51.671 --> 00:07:55.175
So we're working from 
the inside out a nurturing,

00:07:55.175 --> 00:07:57.110
holistic practice here.

00:07:57.110 --> 00:07:58.511
Inhale in.

00:07:58.511 --> 00:08:00.623
Use your exhale 
to slowly release.

00:08:01.874 --> 00:08:04.718
Alright, head to knee 
pose on the other side.

00:08:04.718 --> 00:08:06.720
You're gonna keep 
your right heel in.

00:08:08.688 --> 00:08:09.756
Here we go.

00:08:09.756 --> 00:08:13.688
Let's see how can
I navigate this.

00:08:13.688 --> 00:08:17.130
Darling angel, excuse me.
You mind if I come here?

00:08:17.130 --> 00:08:19.666
Extend your left leg out long.

00:08:19.666 --> 00:08:21.067
That'll do.

00:08:21.067 --> 00:08:23.470
Excellent, and you're 
gonna turn your center

00:08:23.470 --> 00:08:25.405
and your heart to 
face your left foot.

00:08:25.405 --> 00:08:27.586
Flex your left toes 
towards your face. (giggles)

00:08:29.638 --> 00:08:30.266
And here we go.

00:08:30.266 --> 00:08:32.175
Inhale, reach 
up towards the sky.

00:08:33.213 --> 00:08:36.235
Exhale, oh see 
know I'm not, okay,

00:08:36.235 --> 00:08:38.467
let me be a better guide here.

00:08:38.467 --> 00:08:39.619
Inhale, reach 
up towards the sky.

00:08:39.619 --> 00:08:41.621
Thank you for hanging with me,
bend your left knee.

00:08:43.656 --> 00:08:45.325
So especially if you've been
practicing for a long time,

00:08:45.325 --> 00:08:47.594
you're going to want
to just like come here, boom.

00:08:47.594 --> 00:08:50.019
But let's bend the left knee.

00:08:50.019 --> 00:08:53.266
Start with it lifted 
and then drape over.

00:08:53.266 --> 00:08:55.869
And then from here is where
we can find the extension.

00:08:56.846 --> 00:09:00.040
This is just a little bit,
in my opinion, healthier.

00:09:00.040 --> 00:09:04.544
So we start to stretch through
like the belly of the muscles,

00:09:04.544 --> 00:09:06.446
for example, 
the hamstring versus just

00:09:06.446 --> 00:09:07.982
where the muscles attach.

00:09:10.630 --> 00:09:15.121
Mhmmm, and then come on down
to your version of the shape.

00:09:15.121 --> 00:09:18.174
Come into this

00:09:18.174 --> 00:09:20.317
kind of private 
little love cave here

00:09:20.317 --> 00:09:22.829
and listen to the 
sound of your breath.

00:09:27.801 --> 00:09:30.843
Feel the skin of the back 
stretch as you breathe in.

00:09:32.121 --> 00:09:34.088
And the belly, 
soften as you breathe out.

00:09:37.143 --> 00:09:40.146
Soften the skin of the forehead,
relax tongue in your mouth,

00:09:40.146 --> 00:09:42.148
soften the jaw.

00:09:45.518 --> 00:09:49.589
This posture, this asana
providing the nurturing effect

00:09:49.589 --> 00:09:51.040
to the nervous system.

00:09:54.460 --> 00:09:56.783
But you have to 
bring the breath.

00:09:56.783 --> 00:09:58.186
You got it.

00:10:07.720 --> 00:10:09.309
Inhale in.

00:10:10.006 --> 00:10:13.396
Exhale, slowly 
begin to roll it back up.

00:10:16.082 --> 00:10:18.685
Pause. Soften through that foot.

00:10:18.685 --> 00:10:20.019
Let everything go 
here for a second.

00:10:20.019 --> 00:10:22.021
Just notice how you feel.

00:10:32.599 --> 00:10:34.667
And then we'll release that.

00:10:34.667 --> 00:10:37.971
I'm gonna come now to 
Cobbler's Pose, Baddha Konasan.

00:10:37.971 --> 00:10:39.973
So now both heels 
are gonna come in.

00:10:41.708 --> 00:10:46.179
This is a great shape to
consider lifting the hips so we

00:10:46.179 --> 00:10:48.681
can roll up the blanket,
fold up a blanket,

00:10:48.681 --> 00:10:50.283
excuse me, sit up tall.

00:10:50.283 --> 00:10:53.386
Just give yourself 
a little more space

00:10:53.386 --> 00:10:55.304
to find length up 
through the spine.

00:10:56.485 --> 00:11:01.294
Then we'll start by grabbing the
ankles and drawing the shoulder

00:11:01.294 --> 00:11:03.730
blades in together 
and down the back body.

00:11:03.730 --> 00:11:05.498
We've been doing 
this whole journey,

00:11:05.498 --> 00:11:08.134
so apply, apply here.

00:11:08.134 --> 00:11:10.203
Tops of the 
thighs get really heavy.

00:11:14.474 --> 00:11:16.636
And we find this 
lift up through the front.

00:11:16.636 --> 00:11:19.312
And then kind of lean back
here as you find this grounding

00:11:19.312 --> 00:11:21.314
energy through the back body.

00:11:24.384 --> 00:11:26.519
Great, inhale in.

00:11:26.519 --> 00:11:29.656
Exhale, bend the elbows, pull
them back as if you're like in

00:11:29.656 --> 00:11:32.238
Chaturanga here and 
we're gonna slowly look

00:11:32.238 --> 00:11:35.648
forward looking 
into our reflection.

00:11:35.648 --> 00:11:37.897
I always joke this is 
like that Zoolander moment.

00:11:37.897 --> 00:11:39.899
Like, "Who am I?"

00:11:42.135 --> 00:11:45.838
And then we can move 
the hands now to the toes.

00:11:45.838 --> 00:11:47.607
If you're practicing 
in a chilly environment,

00:11:47.607 --> 00:11:50.009
maybe you can 
warm your toes up here.

00:11:50.009 --> 00:11:52.534
Bend your elbows 
now left to right.

00:11:53.546 --> 00:11:56.249
And then play here, 
inhaling to find extension,

00:11:56.249 --> 00:12:00.086
maybe exhaling to 
fold in toward home,

00:12:00.086 --> 00:12:02.088
in towards yourself,
your center.

00:12:06.192 --> 00:12:08.610
Listen to the 
sound of your breath.

00:12:14.467 --> 00:12:17.057
And trust, trust the practice.

00:12:19.161 --> 00:12:21.283
Trust that it's working.

00:12:21.283 --> 00:12:25.191
Trust that you are 
being led to the right place.

00:12:29.882 --> 00:12:30.960
Bring your breath.

00:12:45.093 --> 00:12:47.284
Now, you're gonna 
want to come out here.

00:12:48.399 --> 00:12:51.339
I'd lovingly invite you to stay.

00:12:52.957 --> 00:12:54.432
Stay awhile.

00:12:58.277 --> 00:12:59.712
Three more cycles of breath.

00:12:59.712 --> 00:13:01.231
Count 'em out.

00:13:18.164 --> 00:13:20.133
Move from your middle,
draw your navel in.

00:13:20.133 --> 00:13:22.519
Find center and 
then roll up from there.

00:13:26.172 --> 00:13:29.375
Baddha Konasana, Cobbler's 
Pose, sit up nice and tall.

00:13:29.375 --> 00:13:30.776
Inhale in.

00:13:32.311 --> 00:13:35.597
And exhale to release.
Awesome work.

00:13:35.597 --> 00:13:38.885
So check it out, before we 
get into their cozy wozies,

00:13:39.877 --> 00:13:41.020
I don't know if I've 
ever said that in my life,

00:13:41.020 --> 00:13:42.155
okay, great.

00:13:42.155 --> 00:13:45.687
Say it in front of millions of
people, Adriene. (chuckles)

00:13:46.308 --> 00:13:48.428
I want to bring 
you into a Boat Pose.

00:13:48.428 --> 00:13:49.980
What? This is 
supposed to be nurturing.

00:13:49.980 --> 00:13:52.532
But can we find, we're 
not gonna do High Boat,

00:13:52.532 --> 00:13:54.934
Low Boat, but can we 
find a little core connecting?

00:13:54.934 --> 00:13:58.471
Can we bring this 
kind of yummy layer

00:13:59.385 --> 00:14:00.540
of our theme into it?

00:14:00.540 --> 00:14:05.044
So you can even claps opposite
wrist with the hand here as you

00:14:05.044 --> 00:14:08.381
lean back and 
let it be supportive?

00:14:08.381 --> 00:14:10.450
Or if you're like, 
"Perfect. I liked this practice,

00:14:10.450 --> 00:14:12.251
"but I just need a
little fire in my belly,"

00:14:12.251 --> 00:14:14.253
great, take it here.

00:14:16.889 --> 00:14:19.425
Last option would 
be to grab the shins,

00:14:19.425 --> 00:14:21.427
extend one leg.

00:14:23.062 --> 00:14:25.663
Then bend and extend the other.

00:14:27.867 --> 00:14:33.272
Maybe you extend both, find that
sense of calm in this Navasan,

00:14:33.272 --> 00:14:35.608
this Boat shape.

00:14:35.608 --> 00:14:38.010
Or work to find it, right?
It could be here.

00:14:38.010 --> 00:14:39.625
"No problem, Adriene, I got it."

00:14:39.625 --> 00:14:40.804
Or here.

00:14:45.384 --> 00:14:47.376
Then find your 
breath wherever you are.

00:14:50.953 --> 00:14:53.767
And see if you can take
three cycles of breath here.

00:15:05.538 --> 00:15:08.341
And then slowly release.

00:15:08.341 --> 00:15:10.452
Grab your blanket.

00:15:10.452 --> 00:15:13.425
Alright little, little Benji.

00:15:13.425 --> 00:15:15.286
You're going to 
take your blanket.

00:15:16.755 --> 00:15:18.751
Oh, wow. I know.

00:15:20.100 --> 00:15:24.957
We can share it and we're gonna
bring the blanket to either

00:15:24.957 --> 00:15:29.858
cover your whole body or you can
bring it to just wrap your feet.

00:15:29.858 --> 00:15:34.133
You're just gonna get 
into a little burrito pose.

00:15:34.133 --> 00:15:38.671
The kids love burrito pose
or like the kid in all of us.

00:15:39.399 --> 00:15:41.040
So wrap up like 
a little burrito.

00:15:41.040 --> 00:15:45.511
Looks like I have a breathing
bolster here to lay my head on.

00:15:45.511 --> 00:15:47.747
If you don't have 
a breathing bolster,

00:15:47.747 --> 00:15:49.080
highly recommended,

00:15:51.020 --> 00:15:52.289
but you have to 
take care of them.

00:15:52.289 --> 00:15:54.153
Okay. (chuckles)

00:15:55.254 --> 00:15:56.685
Here I go.

00:15:58.624 --> 00:16:00.927
Okay, excellent.

00:16:00.927 --> 00:16:02.929
Come on down to the ground.

00:16:04.263 --> 00:16:06.632
And we want to get comfy here.

00:16:06.632 --> 00:16:09.468
You can interlace 
the fingertips.

00:16:09.468 --> 00:16:12.872
Bring the hands 
behind the head, elbows wide.

00:16:12.872 --> 00:16:14.848
Maybe cactus arms.

00:16:14.848 --> 00:16:17.810
Maybe fingertips 
softly interlace on

00:16:17.810 --> 00:16:21.700
the belly or if you want 
to come into a traditional,

00:16:21.700 --> 00:16:25.781
sorry I got so relaxed
(laughs), traditional Shavasan,

00:16:25.781 --> 00:16:28.491
just allow your hands to 
rest gently at your sides.

00:16:31.224 --> 00:16:33.265
And then close your eyes.

00:16:35.786 --> 00:16:39.165
And think about the 
things you would like to

00:16:43.770 --> 00:16:45.490
be held in.

00:16:50.108 --> 00:16:51.516
Think about

00:16:54.752 --> 00:16:57.070
the things,
if anything,

00:16:58.084 --> 00:17:00.691
that you would 
like to be blanketed in.

00:17:06.959 --> 00:17:08.140
Support.

00:17:12.026 --> 00:17:13.209
Creativity.

00:17:17.665 --> 00:17:19.184
Love.

00:17:22.315 --> 00:17:24.966
Sense of 
camaraderie or community.

00:17:29.181 --> 00:17:33.472
Think of the things that you
would like to nurture and be

00:17:34.182 --> 00:17:36.106
nurtured in.

00:17:36.106 --> 00:17:39.625
And let's use this time 
on the mat to once again

00:17:39.625 --> 00:17:42.495
close the gap between 
the things that we want,

00:17:42.495 --> 00:17:45.314
that we want to attract and

00:17:45.314 --> 00:17:47.927
what we are experiencing

00:17:47.927 --> 00:17:50.449
in our everyday quality of life.

00:17:55.775 --> 00:17:58.377
If any of that resonates,
wonderful.

00:17:58.377 --> 00:18:00.379
If not, don't you 
worry about a thing.

00:18:00.379 --> 00:18:02.538
Just take a deep breath in.

00:18:04.383 --> 00:18:07.587
And everyone use an exhale to
relax the weight of your body

00:18:07.587 --> 00:18:09.889
completely and 
fully into the earth.

00:18:09.889 --> 00:18:13.225
Please do not underestimate the
power of just a few moments of

00:18:13.225 --> 00:18:15.853
stillness here 
consciously breathing.

00:18:20.666 --> 00:18:22.835
Talk about a 
moment of self care.

00:18:22.835 --> 00:18:25.127
There's so many 
of you out there

00:18:25.127 --> 00:18:28.207
I know are caretakers.

00:18:28.207 --> 00:18:31.210
Some of you really 
intense and beautiful,

00:18:31.210 --> 00:18:33.715
almost heroic caretakers.

00:18:37.500 --> 00:18:39.541
So take just a 
moment here longer

00:18:39.541 --> 00:18:41.342
to blanket yourself

00:18:43.639 --> 00:18:47.044
in love and 
support and care.

00:18:47.860 --> 00:18:49.955
Fill your cup.
You don't have to do anything.

00:18:51.697 --> 00:18:53.092
Just receive.

00:18:54.100 --> 00:18:55.421
Just allow.

00:19:11.350 --> 00:19:13.531
Bring your 
awareness to your breath.

00:19:16.422 --> 00:19:19.458
As you're ready, begin to
wiggle the fingers, the toes.

00:19:19.458 --> 00:19:21.800
You know you can 
always pause this video,

00:19:21.800 --> 00:19:23.562
just reach, hit the button and

00:19:23.562 --> 00:19:26.265
then come back into the shape
if you want to be here longer.

00:19:28.934 --> 00:19:31.270
We're gonna 
slowly bend the knees,

00:19:31.270 --> 00:19:33.835
turn to one side, any side,

00:19:33.835 --> 00:19:36.275
and we're gonna 
press up to seated.

00:19:38.457 --> 00:19:41.280
And you can take your blanket

00:19:42.526 --> 00:19:44.076
and bring it around you.

00:19:46.804 --> 00:19:48.054
And if you don't 
have a blanket, don't worry,

00:19:48.054 --> 00:19:51.490
you can just use,
take the metaphor, right?

00:19:51.490 --> 00:19:53.784
And run with it, baby.
(chuckles)

00:19:55.049 --> 00:19:57.739
Of blanketing

00:19:57.739 --> 00:20:01.502
yourself in love and support.

00:20:02.268 --> 00:20:03.302
Let's bring the palms together.

00:20:03.302 --> 00:20:07.139
You're gonna start to 
move the palms back and forth,

00:20:07.139 --> 00:20:09.595
creating a little friction,
a little heat, a little energy.

00:20:09.595 --> 00:20:11.310
Then get a little faster.

00:20:11.310 --> 00:20:12.978
Close your eyes and 
get a little faster,

00:20:12.978 --> 00:20:15.948
a little faster, a little faster
and even faster and then we'll

00:20:15.948 --> 00:20:17.817
bring the hands 
right to the chest,

00:20:17.817 --> 00:20:21.917
right to the heart and just feel
the warmth of your palms there.

00:20:23.122 --> 00:20:23.923
Close your eyes again.

00:20:23.923 --> 00:20:26.770
If you haven't already,
tuck the chin just slightly.

00:20:31.097 --> 00:20:35.155
So some days we're 
gonna be asked to sweat here,

00:20:36.936 --> 00:20:38.819
to work hard,

00:20:39.862 --> 00:20:42.639
but may today's 
practice remind you

00:20:44.260 --> 00:20:46.770
that each time we 
show up on the mat,

00:20:48.020 --> 00:20:50.893
particularly with at-home yoga,
we have an opportunity to

00:20:53.419 --> 00:20:55.821
welcome in this 
sense of being nurtured,

00:20:55.821 --> 00:20:57.237
of being met,

00:20:58.330 --> 00:21:01.594
of being supported, held,

00:21:01.594 --> 00:21:06.055
blanketed in love, divine.

00:21:08.574 --> 00:21:12.104
That's a shout out to the 
Carter Family tune called,

00:21:12.104 --> 00:21:14.273
"Anchored In Love Devine".

00:21:14.273 --> 00:21:16.242
Alright, bring 
the palms together,

00:21:16.242 --> 00:21:18.511
thumbs up towards the third eye.

00:21:18.511 --> 00:21:19.879
You guys are doing awesome.

00:21:19.879 --> 00:21:22.515
Such an honor and a pleasure
to be on this ride with you.

00:21:24.890 --> 00:21:27.063
I look forward to 
seeing you tomorrow.

00:21:28.092 --> 00:21:30.237
Let's inhale in deeply.

00:21:31.423 --> 00:21:34.875
And exhale, deep bow today,
all the way to the earth.

00:21:36.395 --> 00:21:37.618
Namaste.

00:21:39.068 --> 00:21:43.491
(upbeat gentle music)
