00:00:00.210 --> 00:00:01.210
Hey, my friends.

00:00:01.210 --> 00:00:02.750
Welcome to 30 Days Of Yoga with Adriene.

00:00:02.750 --> 00:00:07.610
I'm Adriene, and today is Day 11 and I'm feeling
kind of tight.

00:00:07.610 --> 00:00:11.700
So I'm going to get on the mat and find what
feels good.

00:00:11.700 --> 00:00:14.518
Let's get started.

00:00:14.519 --> 00:00:18.289
All right, my friends.

00:00:18.289 --> 00:00:21.960
Today, we're going to begin in a cross-legged
position.

00:00:21.960 --> 00:00:23.890
You can lift the hips up, if you like.

00:00:23.890 --> 00:00:28.689
Get to a place where you can sit up nice and
tall and feel comfortable.

00:00:28.689 --> 00:00:33.929
All right, we'll begin to notice the breath.

00:00:33.929 --> 00:00:42.879
We can just settle into our practice today.

00:00:42.879 --> 00:00:50.710
Close your eyes, relax your jaw, take a deep
breath in, and find that long, awesome, exhale

00:00:50.710 --> 00:00:55.290
out.

00:00:55.290 --> 00:00:59.399
Beginning with a little gentle spinal flex,
today, we'll bring the palms to the knees,

00:00:59.399 --> 00:01:02.010
press into the sit bones, and use your breath
as you inhale.

00:01:02.010 --> 00:01:07.570
Open your heart and your chest, lift it forward,
nose draws up towards the sky.

00:01:07.570 --> 00:01:10.020
We begin to open up this throat chakra here.

00:01:10.020 --> 00:01:12.339
It's kind of like an animal.

00:01:12.340 --> 00:01:20.619
If you've ever had a pet, you can recognize
this shape in their body when they wake up.

00:01:20.619 --> 00:01:24.840
Then, on an exhale, we draw the navel back
towards the spine.

00:01:24.840 --> 00:01:29.729
We kind of rock on the pelvis, and we bring
the chin to the chest, as the crown of the

00:01:29.729 --> 00:01:33.060
head draws towards the naval.

00:01:33.060 --> 00:01:34.649
Take a couple of breaths here.

00:01:34.649 --> 00:01:35.909
It's funny.

00:01:35.909 --> 00:01:39.079
I just had a memory.

00:01:39.079 --> 00:01:45.520
We do this in our very first ever Yoga with
Adriene video, the Sukhasana video.

00:01:45.520 --> 00:01:51.949
Catch your weight in your palms here for a
deeper stretch.

00:01:51.950 --> 00:01:57.549
Then inhale, a little booty massage, as you
rock forward, again lifting the chest, opening

00:01:57.549 --> 00:02:02.829
the heart and the throat.

00:02:02.829 --> 00:02:09.169
Exhale, chin to chest, navel to spine, nose
draws down, and we stretch.

00:02:09.169 --> 00:02:15.609
Rock the pelvis, as you inhale, elbows down.

00:02:15.610 --> 00:02:21.330
And now that you've got the gist of it, you
can close the eyes and really visualize the

00:02:21.330 --> 00:02:30.270
spine here, you know how, like in an anatomy
diagram, or you can imagine the skeleton and

00:02:30.270 --> 00:02:33.410
all its wonderful attachments.

00:02:33.410 --> 00:02:41.660
Close your eyes, and just see you body here
moving, move nice and slow, back and forth.

00:02:41.660 --> 00:02:51.090
Then on your next breath in, we'll come back
up to a nice stack position here, head over

00:02:51.090 --> 00:02:53.220
heart, heart over pelvis.

00:02:53.220 --> 00:02:56.050
Drop the left palm down, inhale, reach the
right fingertips high.

00:02:56.050 --> 00:02:57.450
Give yourself lots of space today.

00:02:57.450 --> 00:03:02.869
So let's slide the left palm out and find
this nice side body stretch, draw the shoulders

00:03:02.870 --> 00:03:08.420
away from the ears, and spiral your heart
up towards the sky.

00:03:08.420 --> 00:03:11.100
You might find a little movement here, stretching
the back body.

00:03:11.100 --> 00:03:14.870
Again, any tight or sore muscles ground down
through the tops of the thighs.

00:03:14.870 --> 00:03:21.200
Then we're going to draw the navel in, slide
on through, rounding the spine, and take it

00:03:21.200 --> 00:03:23.480
to the other side.

00:03:23.480 --> 00:03:30.320
The same thing here.

00:03:30.320 --> 00:03:37.340
Draw your chin to your chest, navel in, re-round
through, and take it to the left.

00:03:37.340 --> 00:03:40.670
This time, maybe we lower the left elbow and
maybe not.

00:03:40.670 --> 00:03:42.750
Maybe we're like, timber.

00:03:42.750 --> 00:03:58.780
To each his own here and back through center
and we open up.

00:03:58.780 --> 00:04:03.680
Back through center, chin to chest, roll it
up, loop your shoulders, sit up nice and tall,

00:04:03.680 --> 00:04:11.800
inhale, reach the fingertips up overhead,
and exhale out through the mouth, lion's breath.

00:04:11.800 --> 00:04:12.820
What?

00:04:12.820 --> 00:04:16.099
Inhale in again, and lion's breath.

00:04:16.100 --> 00:04:18.639
Don't be shy.

00:04:18.639 --> 00:04:19.889
One more time.

00:04:19.889 --> 00:04:25.680
We float the fingertips down.

00:04:25.680 --> 00:04:26.860
Palms rest gently on the legs.

00:04:26.860 --> 00:04:36.620
We close the eyes and observe the breath,
observe the energy, getting some fresh blood,

00:04:36.620 --> 00:04:42.340
fresh oxygen flowing through.

00:04:42.340 --> 00:04:52.429
Then bat your eyelashes open, and we'll send
it on forward onto all fours.

00:04:52.430 --> 00:04:55.240
When you get there, find your tabletop position.

00:04:55.240 --> 00:04:56.630
We're going to inhale, lift the right knee.

00:04:56.630 --> 00:05:01.259
We're just going to draw some big, big, big,
big, big circles with the knees one way, and

00:05:01.259 --> 00:05:02.539
then the other.

00:05:02.539 --> 00:05:06.849
There's a tendency to really shift all your
weight into the left side body, kind of putting

00:05:06.850 --> 00:05:09.639
this unnecessary, undue pressure on the left
wrist.

00:05:09.639 --> 00:05:12.210
So stay connected through your right palm.

00:05:12.210 --> 00:05:15.710
Reverse your circle, think about carving lines
through space.

00:05:15.710 --> 00:05:20.998
Stay active and alive through your foot to
avoid any foot cramps or weirdness in the

00:05:20.999 --> 00:05:22.270
foot.

00:05:22.270 --> 00:05:26.180
Now we release, we're just going to do the
same thing on the other side.

00:05:26.180 --> 00:05:29.520
Engage the torso so you're not crashing into
your shoulders or wrists.

00:05:29.520 --> 00:05:34.729
The left knee lifts up, and we begin to check
in with that ball and socket.

00:05:34.729 --> 00:05:38.930
It might even feel good on the tops of the
glutes.

00:05:38.930 --> 00:05:46.629
This might be hard work, so we breathe, support
the movement with the breath.

00:05:46.629 --> 00:05:56.800
Reverse your circle, stay connected to your
midline, pressing your left palm, and we release.

00:05:56.800 --> 00:05:57.800
Awesome.

00:05:57.800 --> 00:06:03.020
Curl the toes under, here we go, sending the
hips up and back, downward dog.

00:06:03.020 --> 00:06:13.438
Bend the knees generously, create space.

00:06:13.439 --> 00:06:17.289
Bring the feet about a hip width apart here,
press away from the palms, then we are going

00:06:17.289 --> 00:06:22.199
to bend the right knee in towards the center
line first, dropping down through that left

00:06:22.199 --> 00:06:23.199
heel.

00:06:23.199 --> 00:06:26.569
Breathe into the outer edge of that left hip,
and then turn your gaze to look underneath

00:06:26.569 --> 00:06:29.889
your left armpit chest or you left arm.

00:06:29.889 --> 00:06:34.180
Then we switch, right heel comes down, we
just soften that left knee in towards the

00:06:34.180 --> 00:06:35.310
center line.

00:06:35.310 --> 00:06:42.240
We anchor down through that right heel, and
we look underneath the right arm.

00:06:42.240 --> 00:06:51.611
Then one more time to each side, back and
forth.

00:06:51.611 --> 00:06:52.611
Nice.

00:06:52.611 --> 00:06:53.979
Then we come to center.

00:06:53.979 --> 00:06:58.300
Slowly walking the feet all the way up towards
the front edge of the mat.

00:06:58.300 --> 00:07:00.279
Take your time.

00:07:00.279 --> 00:07:05.259
Gosh creaky floor.

00:07:05.259 --> 00:07:07.900
And we release the front body over.

00:07:07.900 --> 00:07:13.340
So we find this extension in the front of
the body, in the spine, excuse me, so that

00:07:13.340 --> 00:07:25.138
we can relax down, extend it forward full.

00:07:25.139 --> 00:07:29.439
Then today we're going to reach behind, interlace
the fingertips behind the tailbone.

00:07:29.439 --> 00:07:34.120
Use the knuckles to draw down, bend your knees
softly, pressing your feet, and slowly roll

00:07:34.120 --> 00:07:38.349
up here, drawing the knuckles down towards
the earth as you tuck your pelvis in.

00:07:38.349 --> 00:07:43.808
We slowly roll it up, and then we open up
through the chest and find this awesome stretch

00:07:43.809 --> 00:07:48.240
in the upper back body.

00:07:48.240 --> 00:07:52.590
Take a deep breath in, draw energy up through
the arches in the feet, the inner thighs,

00:07:52.590 --> 00:07:54.748
the heart lifts up, and exhale.

00:07:54.749 --> 00:07:56.589
We break free.

00:07:56.589 --> 00:07:57.589
Great.

00:07:57.589 --> 00:08:04.110
Inhale, reaching up and overhead, and exhale,
forward fold.

00:08:04.110 --> 00:08:12.370
Inhale, halfway lift, and exhale, soft and
inbound.

00:08:12.370 --> 00:08:15.669
Plant the palms, step or hop it back to plank.

00:08:15.669 --> 00:08:20.169
We're not going to do a lot of these today,
so let's do one nice, full Vinyasa here, either

00:08:20.169 --> 00:08:22.669
lowering all the way down or lowering halfway.

00:08:22.669 --> 00:08:26.820
Inhale, lift up, open your heart and exhale.

00:08:26.820 --> 00:08:32.960
Lower the knees and widen them, send it back,
extended child's pose.

00:08:32.960 --> 00:08:52.310
Three breathes here, in and out.

00:08:52.310 --> 00:08:56.339
Then press into the tops of the feet, sit
bones anchor down as we walk.

00:08:56.340 --> 00:08:57.460
The palm's up.

00:08:57.460 --> 00:09:04.640
We're going to turn the fingertips in, so
right fingertips turn clockwise, left fingertips

00:09:04.640 --> 00:09:07.160
counterclockwise.

00:09:07.160 --> 00:09:12.020
Keep the knees wide here, and we take a lion's
breath as we press into the palms here.

00:09:12.020 --> 00:09:16.579
Inhale, open your heart, your chest, rock
the pelvis out, lift up through the crown

00:09:16.580 --> 00:09:17.580
of the head.

00:09:17.580 --> 00:09:25.850
Exhale out, inhale for a lion's breath, inhale
in, exhale, tongue out.

00:09:25.850 --> 00:09:26.850
Awesome.

00:09:26.850 --> 00:09:29.940
Release, palms back up to the front of the
mat.

00:09:29.940 --> 00:09:33.850
We walk the knees underneath the hips, curl
the toes under, and send it up and back.

00:09:33.850 --> 00:09:34.850
Downward facing dog.

00:09:34.850 --> 00:09:43.090
So, one of the things I love about lion is,
it's really like let go of what others think.

00:09:43.090 --> 00:09:48.160
Practice, enjoy the cleanse, the playfulness.

00:09:48.160 --> 00:09:52.339
Deep breathe in here, long breath out.

00:09:52.340 --> 00:09:56.080
Then we go for a low walk towards the front
once again.

00:09:56.080 --> 00:10:04.020
Inhale, halfway lift, exhale out, reach behind,
interlace, maybe opposite thumb on top this

00:10:04.020 --> 00:10:13.550
time, soft and through the knees, and we begin
to roll it up once again.

00:10:13.550 --> 00:10:17.420
Stacking up through the spine, we open the
chest and shoulders, take a deep breath in

00:10:17.420 --> 00:10:20.490
here, then exhale, break free.

00:10:20.490 --> 00:10:27.230
Inhale, lift it all the way up, exhale, back
down we go.

00:10:27.230 --> 00:10:32.170
Inhale, halfway lift, and exhale, soft and
inbound.

00:10:32.170 --> 00:10:37.959
This time, we're going to step the right foot
back, lower onto the right knee.

00:10:37.960 --> 00:10:41.460
Breathe into the front of the right hip crease
as you interlace the fingertips and bring

00:10:41.460 --> 00:10:43.530
it to the top of that left thigh.

00:10:43.530 --> 00:10:48.440
Baby pulses here, you can keep the right toes
curled under or you can come on to the top

00:10:48.441 --> 00:10:53.740
of that back foot, so I say do whatever feels
most stable for you and your foot and your

00:10:53.740 --> 00:10:54.740
ankle.

00:10:54.740 --> 00:10:56.070
Make sure you're not on a tight rope here.

00:10:56.070 --> 00:11:00.631
You might walk your left foot out just a hair,
and we're doing baby pulses here.

00:11:00.631 --> 00:11:05.230
We can have pad the knee, we can always double
up on the mat.

00:11:05.230 --> 00:11:09.110
Then we'll sink into that front hip, pull
the left hip crease back, find that upward

00:11:09.110 --> 00:11:12.220
current of energy as you reach the fingertips
up.

00:11:12.220 --> 00:11:17.440
Breathing in, and on an exhale we release.

00:11:17.440 --> 00:11:18.900
Great.

00:11:18.900 --> 00:11:20.959
Plant the palms, curl the back toes under.

00:11:20.960 --> 00:11:26.390
We're going to send it right back to downward
facing dog, and we switch, stepping the right

00:11:26.390 --> 00:11:29.990
leg up this time whenever you're ready.

00:11:29.990 --> 00:11:36.560
We come onto the left knee, we stretch through
the front of that left hip crease.

00:11:36.560 --> 00:11:40.699
We pull the right hip crease back, and the
same thing here, maybe making sure we're on

00:11:40.700 --> 00:11:41.700
two parallel lines.

00:11:41.700 --> 00:11:54.260
We interlace the fingertips, and we find baby
pulses, stretching it out.

00:11:54.260 --> 00:12:00.110
We can stay here, totally grounded, easy breezy,
or we might experiment with reaching the fingertips

00:12:00.110 --> 00:12:04.560
up, drawing energy up from the earth as if
you're pressing away from the top of that

00:12:04.560 --> 00:12:07.369
back foot, and the ball joint of this front
big toe.

00:12:07.370 --> 00:12:10.900
So squeeze this right knee, and this tends
to happen a lot, this tendency to go, whoa.

00:12:10.900 --> 00:12:15.209
So draw it in, reach it up, you got this,
one more breath.

00:12:15.210 --> 00:12:20.890
Shine bright, and exhale, release.

00:12:20.890 --> 00:12:26.040
Curl the back toes under, and we step that
back foot up to meet the front, forward fold.

00:12:26.040 --> 00:12:27.040
Great.

00:12:27.040 --> 00:12:31.180
Inhale, halfway lift, exhale, release.

00:12:31.180 --> 00:12:36.130
Inhale, all the way up, nice and easy this
time, just reaching fingertips up and overhead,

00:12:36.130 --> 00:12:41.550
slight back bend, and exhale, back down we
go.

00:12:41.550 --> 00:12:48.479
Inhale, flat back, we begin to warm it up,
and exhale down.

00:12:48.480 --> 00:12:55.050
Stepping the right foot back again, low lunge,
inhale, exhale, lowering onto the right knee

00:12:55.050 --> 00:12:56.050
once again.

00:12:56.050 --> 00:12:59.160
We inhale, reach it up overhead, full body
stretch.

00:12:59.160 --> 00:13:03.160
Exhale, melting it back.

00:13:03.160 --> 00:13:08.530
Plant the palms, please step in back to downward
facing dog and switch, stepping the right

00:13:08.530 --> 00:13:10.410
leg all the way up.

00:13:10.410 --> 00:13:13.760
Inhale, stretch it out here, don't rush it.

00:13:13.760 --> 00:13:18.390
Then lower that back knee whenever you're
ready, and we rise up, spreading energy awareness

00:13:18.390 --> 00:13:21.870
through the fingertips.

00:13:21.870 --> 00:13:27.250
On an exhaled release, and Vinyasa, totally
skip this Vinyasa if you're keeping it chill

00:13:27.250 --> 00:13:28.350
today.

00:13:28.350 --> 00:13:40.530
Sliding the right toes back, shifting forward,
lower belly draws in, and we find our bliss.

00:13:40.530 --> 00:13:44.490
Together we'll meet in downward facing dog.

00:13:44.490 --> 00:13:46.880
Drop the left heel, inhale, lift the right
leg high.

00:13:46.880 --> 00:13:50.390
Bend the right knee, hug it all the way towards
your heart.

00:13:50.390 --> 00:13:53.730
Then step it on through into your lunge.

00:13:53.730 --> 00:13:55.390
Lower that back knee once again.

00:13:55.390 --> 00:14:00.953
Okay, so this time we're going to walk the
right foot over towards the right side of

00:14:00.953 --> 00:14:06.300
the mat, and even allow the right toes to
turn out just a hair.

00:14:06.300 --> 00:14:11.530
I come onto my left palm, my fingertips, or
if I have a block or a book handy, my yoga

00:14:11.530 --> 00:14:19.319
book, yoga prop book, I can lift the earth
up to me, which is sometimes really nice.

00:14:19.320 --> 00:14:22.720
You might think too, sometimes like no, I
can do it, I can do it, and it's like, why

00:14:22.720 --> 00:14:23.720
are you're being stubborn.

00:14:23.720 --> 00:14:27.680
Just give yourself a little space, and it's
kind of nice to start here.

00:14:27.680 --> 00:14:34.219
Then slowly come here, and then maybe, and
sometimes just anatomically, folks are more

00:14:34.220 --> 00:14:35.780
open in the hips.

00:14:35.780 --> 00:14:42.860
Maybe you come onto the forearms, and maybe
you lift the back knee up.

00:14:42.860 --> 00:14:46.100
And maybe you're like, that is just crazy
talk.

00:14:46.100 --> 00:14:49.680
But if you do lift that back knee up, I encourage
you to notice what's going on in your foot

00:14:49.680 --> 00:14:52.989
and your ankle, really press into all five
toes.

00:14:52.990 --> 00:14:56.130
Find that sit bone to heel connection.

00:14:56.130 --> 00:15:00.240
It is possible to roll on the outer edge of
this right foot if that feels awesome.

00:15:00.240 --> 00:15:03.980
I like to keep mine nice and grounded, but
that's a nice variation for some.

00:15:03.980 --> 00:15:10.280
So we're here, over here, over here, over
here.

00:15:10.280 --> 00:15:14.640
Find your lizard variation today, and then
really tap into that sweet breath my friends,

00:15:14.640 --> 00:15:20.260
that Pranayama, moving the Prana or the energy
around in the body, blocking, clearing out

00:15:20.260 --> 00:15:30.450
any blockages, really doing some awesome,
awesome stuff for the body here, and the mind,

00:15:30.450 --> 00:15:31.450
and the spirit.

00:15:31.450 --> 00:15:36.070
One more breath, and then we slowly rise up
wherever we are.

00:15:36.070 --> 00:15:41.870
Walk that right knee in, and then we slowly
send the sit bones back, rocking onto that

00:15:41.870 --> 00:15:43.160
right heel.

00:15:43.160 --> 00:15:46.250
Just one deep full breath cycle here.

00:15:46.250 --> 00:15:49.730
In and out.

00:15:49.730 --> 00:15:53.190
Then we'll roll through that right foot, plant
the palms.

00:15:53.190 --> 00:15:57.980
You have an option here, you can step it straight
back to downward facing dog, or you can move

00:15:57.980 --> 00:16:05.250
through your Vinyasa.

00:16:05.250 --> 00:16:08.590
From down dog we drop the right heel, inhale,
lift the left leg high.

00:16:08.590 --> 00:16:12.040
Bend that left knee, squeeze it up in towards
your heart.

00:16:12.040 --> 00:16:15.510
Press away from the earth, and then step your
left foot up into your lunge.

00:16:15.510 --> 00:16:21.480
Lower the right knee slowly, and here we go.

00:16:21.480 --> 00:16:26.610
Walking the left toes out now, turning or
fanning the left toes just out towards the

00:16:26.610 --> 00:16:28.870
left edge of the mat.

00:16:28.870 --> 00:16:33.050
Palms come inward here, and we just slow it
down, there is no rush.

00:16:33.050 --> 00:16:35.930
I feel like that's where the yummy stuff come.

00:16:35.930 --> 00:16:39.560
That's why this home practice is so great
because you get the chance to really work

00:16:39.560 --> 00:16:40.880
into the sensations.

00:16:40.880 --> 00:16:46.680
So then you can go rock out in a public class,
and move at the pace that the teacher sets.

00:16:46.680 --> 00:16:47.800
Here we are.

00:16:47.800 --> 00:16:50.050
Everyone is like, shut up Adriene.

00:16:50.050 --> 00:16:59.469
Here we are, checking it out on the other
side.

00:16:59.470 --> 00:17:10.179
Maybe we lift that back knee, maybe we save
that for another day.

00:17:10.179 --> 00:17:16.089
Deep breaths.

00:17:16.089 --> 00:17:23.059
Eventually we'll start wrapping this arm underneath
and going into arm balances and stuff, so

00:17:23.059 --> 00:17:26.199
just enjoy where you're at today.

00:17:26.199 --> 00:17:29.230
How lucky that we have so much to look forward
to.

00:17:29.230 --> 00:17:34.299
Deep breath in, long breath out.

00:17:34.299 --> 00:17:43.210
Then we slowly release, come back up, bring
the left foot back in, and send the hips up

00:17:43.210 --> 00:17:45.190
and back.

00:17:45.190 --> 00:17:47.499
One full breath cycle here.

00:17:47.499 --> 00:17:48.499
Enjoy.

00:17:48.499 --> 00:17:52.220
Make the most of it.

00:17:52.220 --> 00:17:55.370
Then we'll roll through that left foot.

00:17:55.370 --> 00:18:01.989
Come back to our low lunge, and step the back
foot up to meet the front, forward fold.

00:18:01.990 --> 00:18:02.990
Cool.

00:18:02.990 --> 00:18:08.280
Inhale, halfway lift from here, exhale, soft
and then bow.

00:18:08.280 --> 00:18:12.580
Inhale, spread the fingertips wide, reach
all the way up.

00:18:12.580 --> 00:18:22.850
Full body stretch, and exhale back down at
the heart.

00:18:22.850 --> 00:18:25.780
Take a second here to just observe your breath.

00:18:25.780 --> 00:18:28.230
Notice how you feel.

00:18:28.230 --> 00:18:36.879
Then we'll draw the chin down, look down at
your feet.

00:18:36.879 --> 00:18:37.879
Hands come to the waistline.

00:18:37.880 --> 00:18:42.760
I'm going to cross my right ankle over the
left here.

00:18:42.760 --> 00:18:47.700
Toes point forward, or at least just try to
keep a consciousness of that, and a little

00:18:47.700 --> 00:18:48.860
softness in the knees.

00:18:48.860 --> 00:18:50.449
So don't lock that back knee.

00:18:50.450 --> 00:18:56.240
Inhale, lift your heart, exhale, forward fold.

00:18:56.240 --> 00:18:59.870
Now if you have that block, you can bring
the earth up to you here.

00:18:59.870 --> 00:19:03.389
Maybe you keep the hands on the waistline,
or maybe you reach the fingertips down, or

00:19:03.389 --> 00:19:06.080
palms.

00:19:06.080 --> 00:19:12.928
Relax the weight of the head over, pressing
on all four corners of your left foot.

00:19:12.929 --> 00:19:17.340
Then tuck the chin into the chest, soften
through the knees, press into all four corners

00:19:17.340 --> 00:19:21.471
of your feet to come up, nice and strong,
nice and strong, nice and strong, and then

00:19:21.471 --> 00:19:26.879
we release, and switch.

00:19:26.879 --> 00:19:30.730
Left foot crosses over the right, hands come
to the waistline, and we just kind of find

00:19:30.730 --> 00:19:43.860
our integrity here, lifting up, and then keeping
nice long puppy belly here as we forward fold.

00:19:43.860 --> 00:19:49.299
Hands can stay on the waistline, thumbs pulling
back, or we can bring hands to block, or release.

00:19:49.299 --> 00:19:58.850
You know what to do.

00:19:58.850 --> 00:20:03.949
Now from here, we're going to inhale in, bring
the head up just a hair, just so you can see

00:20:03.950 --> 00:20:08.850
your feet, and soften through the knees so
you can unravel from here.

00:20:08.850 --> 00:20:11.009
Then we're going to heel-toe, heel-toe the
feet wide.

00:20:11.009 --> 00:20:14.940
Stay in your forward fold, so I realize you're
probably looking at me, but stay low here

00:20:14.940 --> 00:20:20.799
because we're going to drop the sit bones
and come into Malasana or squat.

00:20:20.799 --> 00:20:21.990
Palms come together at the heart.

00:20:21.990 --> 00:20:25.370
We squeeze the legs in towards the arms.

00:20:25.370 --> 00:20:27.590
We press the arms towards the legs.

00:20:27.590 --> 00:20:32.340
Remember from before, you can use a block
underneath the sit bones here, it's really

00:20:32.340 --> 00:20:38.259
nice, or you can pillow the heels with the
blanket.

00:20:38.259 --> 00:20:45.039
Find your deep yogic squat today, and take
a nice full, loving breath in, nice loving

00:20:45.039 --> 00:20:49.690
breath out.

00:20:49.690 --> 00:20:55.940
And one more time in, and out.

00:20:55.940 --> 00:20:56.940
Fingertips come to the earth.

00:20:56.940 --> 00:21:01.139
We tuck the chin into the chest, pressing
the outer edges of the feet, and roll it on

00:21:01.139 --> 00:21:04.750
up all the way.

00:21:04.750 --> 00:21:07.820
Awesome.

00:21:07.820 --> 00:21:13.639
So now we're going to spread the feet a little
bit wider, keeping the toes turned out.

00:21:13.639 --> 00:21:16.178
Hands are going to reach up here, really reach,
reach, reach.

00:21:16.179 --> 00:21:19.210
Spread your fingertips and on an exhale bend
your knees.

00:21:19.210 --> 00:21:22.830
So now we're getting into some crazy Shakti
moves here.

00:21:22.830 --> 00:21:25.619
Day 11 in heaven.

00:21:25.619 --> 00:21:28.418
I swear I'm sober.

00:21:28.419 --> 00:21:29.419
Okay.

00:21:29.419 --> 00:21:30.419
Knees are going to want to come in.

00:21:30.419 --> 00:21:31.799
We're really going to work strong here.

00:21:31.799 --> 00:21:34.020
We're not going to be here for long, trust
me.

00:21:34.020 --> 00:21:37.519
But keep your knees pressing out, so really
tops of the thighs are going to spiral out

00:21:37.519 --> 00:21:41.610
really, trying to make sure that you can see
your big toes because this is important.

00:21:41.610 --> 00:21:49.049
Then tuck your pelvis in, horse pose or goddess
pose is a nicer name.

00:21:49.049 --> 00:21:50.200
God or goddess pose.

00:21:50.200 --> 00:21:54.320
Palms come together here, nice and strong,
inhale in, exhale, turn to the right, sink

00:21:54.320 --> 00:21:57.399
down low, inhale to center, exhale.

00:21:57.399 --> 00:22:05.199
Turn to the left, sink down low, inhale to
center, exhale to the right, inhale to center,

00:22:05.200 --> 00:22:06.200
exhale to the left.

00:22:06.200 --> 00:22:07.250
Only one more time, you got it.

00:22:07.250 --> 00:22:11.840
Inhale to center, smile, exhale to the right,
drop you sit bones, head over heart, heart

00:22:11.840 --> 00:22:15.970
over pelvis as you inhale the center, exhale
to the left.

00:22:15.970 --> 00:22:17.679
Inhale to center and release.

00:22:17.679 --> 00:22:19.669
Straighten your legs.

00:22:19.669 --> 00:22:24.940
Inhale, reach the arms up and overhead, and
exhale.

00:22:24.940 --> 00:22:26.639
Let it go.

00:22:26.639 --> 00:22:28.129
Heel-toe, heel-toe the feet.

00:22:28.130 --> 00:22:30.140
All the way back into center.

00:22:30.140 --> 00:22:32.409
My favorite little dance move.

00:22:32.409 --> 00:22:39.730
Then we take a deep breath in.

00:22:39.730 --> 00:22:51.779
Take a couple of moments here in mountain
pose to feel the soles of the feet, the sensations

00:22:51.779 --> 00:22:55.090
up through the legs and hips.

00:22:55.090 --> 00:22:59.029
Maybe notice if there is still any tension
or tightness in the torso, the shoulders,

00:22:59.029 --> 00:23:04.640
the neck that needs to be worked out before
you continue off your mat and into the rest

00:23:04.640 --> 00:23:06.610
of your day.

00:23:06.610 --> 00:23:11.209
Thanks for sharing your practice with me.

00:23:11.210 --> 00:23:12.210
Awesome work.

00:23:12.210 --> 00:23:12.580
Take care.
