00:00:00.400 --> 00:00:01.492
- What's up, party people?

00:00:01.492 --> 00:00:03.229
Welcome to 
Yoga with Adriene, I'm Adriene,

00:00:03.229 --> 00:00:04.478
and today we have a big request.

00:00:04.478 --> 00:00:06.974
This is yoga for 
service industry folks.

00:00:06.974 --> 00:00:08.902
So I have a lot of friends 
who are on their feet all day,

00:00:08.902 --> 00:00:11.011
whether you work as 
a waiter or waitress

00:00:11.011 --> 00:00:12.446
or you work in a salon

00:00:12.446 --> 00:00:15.182
or I could think of 
literally a million other jobs

00:00:15.182 --> 00:00:16.697
where you're on 
your feet all day,

00:00:16.697 --> 00:00:18.976
and you need a 
little bit of a practice

00:00:18.976 --> 00:00:21.822
to decompress and 
stretch tired, sore muscles

00:00:21.822 --> 00:00:24.858
that are probably overworked.

00:00:24.858 --> 00:00:26.360
So you deserve 
this time for yourself,

00:00:26.360 --> 00:00:29.463
hop into something 
comfy and let's get started.

00:00:29.463 --> 00:00:32.031
(upbeat music)

00:00:42.273 --> 00:00:44.575
Alright my friends, 
so let's begin standing.

00:00:44.575 --> 00:00:46.410
We're gonna do a 
little bit of work on our feet

00:00:46.410 --> 00:00:49.249
and then get you off those feet

00:00:49.249 --> 00:00:51.919
and stretch the legs 
with the support of the earth.

00:00:51.919 --> 00:00:54.021
So just bring your 
hands to your waistline here

00:00:54.021 --> 00:00:56.233
and bring the 
feet hip width apart.

00:00:56.233 --> 00:00:57.631
And just take a little moment

00:00:57.631 --> 00:00:58.973
to tap into a 
little inner smile,

00:00:58.973 --> 00:00:59.934
whatever that means to you,

00:00:59.934 --> 00:01:02.195
because you are awesome,
you're a total bad ass,

00:01:02.195 --> 00:01:04.965
we're taking this 
time to counterbalance

00:01:04.965 --> 00:01:07.698
all the time you 
spend on your feet

00:01:07.698 --> 00:01:09.569
and all the hard 
work you've done

00:01:09.569 --> 00:01:11.789
and put in a little 
you time, a little TLC.

00:01:11.789 --> 00:01:14.094
So hats off to you, awesome,

00:01:14.094 --> 00:01:15.466
tap into a 
little inner smile here,

00:01:15.466 --> 00:01:18.095
it helps you kind of 
transition from the work day,

00:01:18.095 --> 00:01:20.410
you know, anyway, so.

00:01:20.410 --> 00:01:23.050
Shift your weight to one foot, 
doesn't matter which foot,

00:01:23.050 --> 00:01:25.352
and then just 
take the opposite toes

00:01:25.352 --> 00:01:26.253
and bring them to the mat

00:01:26.253 --> 00:01:29.466
and start to stretch 
through the front of the foot.

00:01:29.466 --> 00:01:32.259
And just to make 
sure we're not collapsing

00:01:32.259 --> 00:01:33.894
into the standing foot,

00:01:33.894 --> 00:01:37.975
just lift up through 
your chest a little bit.

00:01:37.975 --> 00:01:39.933
And then walk it 
back just a little bit,

00:01:39.933 --> 00:01:43.136
take it back so you're 
really stretching even more

00:01:43.136 --> 00:01:45.716
and maybe even you're 
able to straighten that leg.

00:01:45.716 --> 00:01:49.222
Ooh, and pop your toes, ooh!

00:01:49.222 --> 00:01:51.395
Take one more breath.

00:01:51.395 --> 00:01:53.777
Awesome, then 
whatever foot that you're on,

00:01:53.777 --> 00:01:56.523
stay on it, and just take 
the opposite heel forward,

00:01:56.523 --> 00:01:58.318
bend the standing leg,

00:01:58.318 --> 00:02:01.278
and we're just gonna come 
to a little forward fold here,

00:02:01.278 --> 00:02:05.623
but you're really tugging 
back on that front heel.

00:02:05.623 --> 00:02:07.291
Awesome, just a 
little counter there,

00:02:07.291 --> 00:02:09.013
and then release and switch.

00:02:09.013 --> 00:02:12.766
So toes come down, 
opposite toes come down,

00:02:12.766 --> 00:02:15.749
we stretch through the toes, 
maybe pop your toes here,

00:02:15.749 --> 00:02:17.298
through the front of the foot,

00:02:17.298 --> 00:02:19.166
and then last but not 
least try to find a lift

00:02:19.166 --> 00:02:21.901
up through the heart.

00:02:21.901 --> 00:02:23.157
Yeah, awesome.

00:02:23.157 --> 00:02:25.449
Then maybe, this will 
be individual of course,

00:02:25.449 --> 00:02:26.997
but maybe walk it back,

00:02:26.997 --> 00:02:28.229
find a little deeper stretch,

00:02:28.229 --> 00:02:31.184
maybe even 
straightening that leg.

00:02:31.184 --> 00:02:32.486
So you're feeling 
it all the way through

00:02:32.486 --> 00:02:35.122
the front of the hip crease.

00:02:37.295 --> 00:02:39.236
Awesome, and then release.

00:02:39.236 --> 00:02:40.727
Dig that heel into the ground,

00:02:40.727 --> 00:02:45.045
bend the standing 
leg and take it forward.

00:02:45.045 --> 00:02:47.287
So really tug back 
through that heel here,

00:02:47.287 --> 00:02:49.002
just a little counter,

00:02:49.002 --> 00:02:51.588
stretching through the back.

00:02:51.588 --> 00:02:53.090
And then release, awesome.

00:02:53.090 --> 00:02:56.013
Bring the feet 
back to hip width apart,

00:02:56.013 --> 00:02:59.752
we inhale in, and exhale, fold.

00:02:59.752 --> 00:03:02.492
Forward fold.

00:03:02.492 --> 00:03:03.914
Bend your knees generously,

00:03:03.914 --> 00:03:05.762
so you're really gonna 
want to bend the knees

00:03:05.762 --> 00:03:08.492
so you can get a nice 
stretch in the lower back.

00:03:08.492 --> 00:03:10.557
Keep the feet firmly planted,

00:03:10.557 --> 00:03:13.293
and begin to let the stress

00:03:13.293 --> 00:03:17.531
and any tension spill 
off the back body here,

00:03:17.531 --> 00:03:20.333
any weight you've been carrying.

00:03:20.333 --> 00:03:22.433
Again, bend your 
knees generously so we can

00:03:22.433 --> 00:03:25.172
really get some 
lower back love here.

00:03:25.172 --> 00:03:27.778
Stretching 
through the hamstrings.

00:03:27.778 --> 00:03:31.044
Maybe grabbing the 
elbows, opposite elbows,

00:03:31.044 --> 00:03:33.806
and rocking side to side.

00:03:35.782 --> 00:03:38.110
Shake the head loose.

00:03:39.316 --> 00:03:40.978
And then release.

00:03:40.978 --> 00:03:42.306
Tuck the chin into the chest,

00:03:42.306 --> 00:03:44.925
roll it up, nice and slow.

00:03:46.410 --> 00:03:49.379
Awesome, and then 
we'll come back to standing.

00:03:49.379 --> 00:03:50.694
Take a cleansing breath here,

00:03:50.694 --> 00:03:53.584
so big inhale in 
through the nose,

00:03:53.584 --> 00:03:55.958
and exhale, let it go.

00:03:56.767 --> 00:03:58.909
Awesome, take the 
feet super wide now,

00:03:58.909 --> 00:04:00.544
this is the last standing pose

00:04:00.544 --> 00:04:01.645
before we bring 
it to the ground,

00:04:01.645 --> 00:04:03.614
so take the feet super wide

00:04:03.614 --> 00:04:05.883
and turn the toes in slightly,

00:04:05.883 --> 00:04:07.918
so you're really 
feeling this stretch

00:04:07.918 --> 00:04:09.770
by pressing into the 
outer edge of the foot.

00:04:09.770 --> 00:04:12.155
So you should be 
feeling sensation

00:04:12.155 --> 00:04:14.191
in the outer edge of the foot.

00:04:14.191 --> 00:04:15.942
Then bring the hands 
back to the waistline,

00:04:15.942 --> 00:04:18.488
find that lift in the heart.

00:04:18.488 --> 00:04:20.931
And so standing 
wide leg in forward fold,

00:04:20.931 --> 00:04:23.033
you can't always do 
everywhere, I understand,

00:04:23.033 --> 00:04:24.635
so you can do the forward fold,

00:04:24.635 --> 00:04:27.804
but this is a good one 
to do daily if you can.

00:04:27.804 --> 00:04:31.642
So therapeutic and really 
nice for preventative care.

00:04:31.642 --> 00:04:33.410
So inhale, lift your heart,

00:04:33.410 --> 00:04:35.846
exhale, inner thighs spiral back

00:04:35.846 --> 00:04:39.883
as you send the hips 
back and we slowly come down.

00:04:39.883 --> 00:04:42.286
Again, big toes are turned in,

00:04:42.286 --> 00:04:44.521
fingertips come 
to the ground here,

00:04:44.521 --> 00:04:45.586
and if you're really tight,

00:04:45.586 --> 00:04:47.171
go ahead and bend 
the knees generously

00:04:47.171 --> 00:04:48.558
and breathe here,

00:04:48.558 --> 00:04:50.894
finding soft, easy movement.

00:04:51.985 --> 00:04:54.621
If you're able to take it 
down a little more you will,

00:04:54.621 --> 00:04:57.424
maybe bringing 
the head down to hang,

00:04:57.424 --> 00:04:58.859
maybe it can touch,

00:04:58.859 --> 00:05:02.759
maybe that's 
something for another day.

00:05:02.759 --> 00:05:04.574
Or maybe you take a twist,

00:05:04.574 --> 00:05:07.805
right fingertips 
up towards the sky,

00:05:07.805 --> 00:05:11.238
and then left 
fingertips up towards the sky.

00:05:11.238 --> 00:05:12.973
Soft, easy movement.

00:05:12.973 --> 00:05:15.509
See if you can deepen 
your breath a little bit here,

00:05:15.509 --> 00:05:19.573
just to start to release

00:05:19.573 --> 00:05:22.222
any stress, tension in the body.

00:05:23.360 --> 00:05:25.309
Take one more breath 
wherever you are here,

00:05:25.309 --> 00:05:28.365
standing wide 
legged forward fold.

00:05:29.736 --> 00:05:31.805
And then exhale, release.

00:05:33.343 --> 00:05:34.511
Bend the knees,

00:05:34.511 --> 00:05:36.413
bring the hands 
to the waistline,

00:05:36.413 --> 00:05:39.282
inhale and again flat back,

00:05:39.282 --> 00:05:41.885
and exhale to 
come all the way up.

00:05:41.885 --> 00:05:46.356
Whoa, feel the blood 
flow, opposite direction.

00:05:46.356 --> 00:05:47.364
And then nice and slow,

00:05:47.364 --> 00:05:49.152
so find articulation 
in the feet here,

00:05:49.152 --> 00:05:52.462
you can even use this 
motion to really massage

00:05:52.462 --> 00:05:54.765
and dig into the 
ball joint of the big toe

00:05:54.765 --> 00:05:56.400
and dig into the heel.

00:05:56.400 --> 00:06:00.570
Walk your feet all the 
way back to hip width apart.

00:06:03.729 --> 00:06:06.090
Big cleansing breath here.
Inhale in.

00:06:07.024 --> 00:06:08.759
Exhale, let it go,

00:06:08.759 --> 00:06:12.029
let go of the day 
thus far, let it go.

00:06:12.029 --> 00:06:15.365
Awesome, now we're 
gonna come to a seat.

00:06:19.753 --> 00:06:23.323
Alright, so once you 
get down on the ground,

00:06:23.323 --> 00:06:25.158
you don't even need a yoga mat,

00:06:25.158 --> 00:06:28.141
just get down low, come 
into a nice comfortable seat.

00:06:28.141 --> 00:06:30.063
This could be 
cross legged, kneeling,

00:06:30.063 --> 00:06:33.366
you can even sit in a 
chair for this next piece.

00:06:33.366 --> 00:06:35.068
And sit up nice and tall

00:06:35.068 --> 00:06:36.636
and once again, 
a cleansing breath,

00:06:36.636 --> 00:06:39.005
just kind of washing 
away the day thus far,

00:06:39.005 --> 00:06:40.870
inhale in

00:06:40.870 --> 00:06:43.497
and exhale out 
through the mouth.

00:06:44.584 --> 00:06:47.104
Then working into the 
neck and shoulders here,

00:06:47.104 --> 00:06:50.907
so drop the chin to the 
chest, wherever you are,

00:06:50.907 --> 00:06:54.444
and then slowly we're 
gonna draw a U with the nose,

00:06:54.444 --> 00:06:55.479
back and forth.

00:06:55.479 --> 00:06:57.468
So you'll go to one 
side and then the other.

00:06:57.468 --> 00:07:00.825
Big U or big smiley face.

00:07:01.722 --> 00:07:04.274
Or a big semicircle.

00:07:05.635 --> 00:07:07.321
And once you feel 
like you have it down,

00:07:07.321 --> 00:07:08.405
go ahead and close your eyes,

00:07:08.405 --> 00:07:11.871
gonna help 
really start to relieve

00:07:11.871 --> 00:07:17.302
any stagnant energy and 
stress that you're holding onto.

00:07:17.302 --> 00:07:19.203
I know that sounds 
like a load of crap too,

00:07:19.203 --> 00:07:21.828
but I do believe that it's true,

00:07:21.828 --> 00:07:24.444
when you close your eyes 
you're just kind of signalling

00:07:24.444 --> 00:07:27.047
the brain body 
connect to go inward

00:07:27.047 --> 00:07:30.465
and to relax.

00:07:38.081 --> 00:07:39.209
Great, even it out,

00:07:39.209 --> 00:07:40.841
and then come back to center.

00:07:40.841 --> 00:07:42.042
Lift your head,

00:07:42.042 --> 00:07:44.011
lift your chin,

00:07:44.011 --> 00:07:46.246
and then send 
your fingertips forward

00:07:46.246 --> 00:07:47.648
and then fingertips down.

00:07:47.648 --> 00:07:48.985
Plug your shoulders in,

00:07:48.985 --> 00:07:50.454
lift up through your sternum,

00:07:50.454 --> 00:07:53.957
and then feel that strong 
stretch through the forearm.

00:07:53.957 --> 00:07:55.325
If you need a little more,

00:07:55.325 --> 00:07:56.660
just do one hand at a time

00:07:56.660 --> 00:07:59.162
and give yourself a 
little forearm massage here,

00:07:59.162 --> 00:08:00.664
so if you're carrying things

00:08:00.664 --> 00:08:02.632
or working with the 
muscles of the arms,

00:08:02.632 --> 00:08:07.204
give them a little 
release here with the thumb,

00:08:07.204 --> 00:08:09.873
and then you can 
also flip the palms

00:08:09.873 --> 00:08:12.242
and give yourself 
a stretch here,

00:08:12.242 --> 00:08:14.878
either here or 
using the opposite hand

00:08:14.878 --> 00:08:16.346
to go a little deeper,

00:08:16.346 --> 00:08:19.015
maybe even one finger at a time.

00:08:24.251 --> 00:08:26.783
Awesome, and then when 
you feel satisfied with that,

00:08:26.783 --> 00:08:27.788
take it forward,

00:08:27.788 --> 00:08:28.896
so if you're in a 
chair you're gonna want

00:08:28.896 --> 00:08:31.725
to come off your 
chair now and get down low,

00:08:31.725 --> 00:08:34.661
brothers and sisters, 
come on now.

00:08:34.661 --> 00:08:37.364
And you can move nice and slow.

00:08:37.364 --> 00:08:38.532
This time is for you,

00:08:38.532 --> 00:08:40.701
you're not here 
to master anything,

00:08:40.701 --> 00:08:44.190
this is TLC, relaxation time.

00:08:44.190 --> 00:08:45.558
So move nice and slow,

00:08:45.558 --> 00:08:47.527
come down to the ground,

00:08:47.527 --> 00:08:49.263
and we're gonna 
bring the knees wide,

00:08:49.263 --> 00:08:51.515
big toes to touch,

00:08:51.515 --> 00:08:52.743
and here we go, inhale

00:08:52.743 --> 00:08:54.725
reach your right 
fingertips forward,

00:08:54.725 --> 00:08:58.004
find a nice long stretch
in your right side body,

00:08:58.004 --> 00:08:59.276
and then 
threading the needle here,

00:08:59.276 --> 00:09:00.821
so the right fingertips come in

00:09:00.821 --> 00:09:03.056
and underneath the 
bridge of the left arm

00:09:03.056 --> 00:09:05.359
and we come to 
rest on the right ear.

00:09:05.359 --> 00:09:07.170
Pelvis does rock up here,

00:09:07.170 --> 00:09:09.346
it's gonna be awesome, 
feel awesome,

00:09:09.346 --> 00:09:11.125
once you land.

00:09:11.125 --> 00:09:13.033
Find what feels 
good with that top arm,

00:09:13.033 --> 00:09:15.739
so maybe it's 
pressing into the left palm,

00:09:15.739 --> 00:09:17.507
keeping it really 
active as you stretch out

00:09:17.507 --> 00:09:18.842
through the neck, the shoulders,

00:09:18.842 --> 00:09:21.044
the muscles of 
the upper back body,

00:09:21.044 --> 00:09:24.000
maybe you take the 
hand to the lower back

00:09:24.000 --> 00:09:26.896
or up to the sky 
or take a little bind.

00:09:26.896 --> 00:09:28.705
Another great 
option is just to reach it

00:09:28.705 --> 00:09:31.201
all the way out in front.

00:09:31.201 --> 00:09:32.342
Then bring the breath here,

00:09:32.342 --> 00:09:34.755
press into the tops of the 
feet for a little stability,

00:09:34.755 --> 00:09:37.129
and breathe deep.

00:09:45.525 --> 00:09:47.687
And slowly we'll release.

00:09:47.687 --> 00:09:50.623
Use the hands to 
press yourself back up.

00:09:50.623 --> 00:09:52.158
Come back to all fours

00:09:52.158 --> 00:09:54.444
and we'll reach the 
left fingertips forward.

00:09:54.444 --> 00:09:55.812
Soft, easy movement,

00:09:55.812 --> 00:09:57.881
find that length 
in the left side body,

00:09:57.881 --> 00:09:59.649
and then 
threading the needle here,

00:09:59.649 --> 00:10:01.718
coming onto the left ear,

00:10:01.718 --> 00:10:03.897
should feel really 
good as you breathe

00:10:03.897 --> 00:10:06.576
into the muscles 
of the upper back.

00:10:06.576 --> 00:10:09.412
Again, right elbow 
can come to the sky,

00:10:09.412 --> 00:10:11.615
to the lower back,

00:10:11.615 --> 00:10:13.950
or all the way out in front.

00:10:17.584 --> 00:10:19.803
Breathing into the twist.

00:10:19.803 --> 00:10:21.868
Again sending lots 
of breath and awareness

00:10:21.868 --> 00:10:24.090
to the upper back body,

00:10:25.191 --> 00:10:27.193
the shoulders, the neck.

00:10:28.528 --> 00:10:32.599
Press into your toes 
for a little stability here.

00:10:35.605 --> 00:10:38.108
Awesome, then slide it back in

00:10:39.566 --> 00:10:41.601
and come back to all fours.

00:10:41.601 --> 00:10:44.371
Walk the knees 
underneath the hip points,

00:10:44.371 --> 00:10:47.522
cross the ankles,
and slowly, mindfully,

00:10:47.522 --> 00:10:49.039
be careful of your 
knees and ankles,

00:10:49.039 --> 00:10:51.074
come all the way through,

00:10:51.074 --> 00:10:53.510
and we're gonna 
send the legs out front.

00:10:53.510 --> 00:10:55.378
Keep it soft and 
easy movement here.

00:10:55.378 --> 00:10:57.914
So we're gonna windshield 
wiper the legs back and forth,

00:10:57.914 --> 00:11:01.418
get a little glute massage here,

00:11:01.418 --> 00:11:05.589
so if you're on carpet you 
might not feel this as firmly,

00:11:07.100 --> 00:11:08.401
so too bad for you!

00:11:08.401 --> 00:11:09.536
No, just kidding.

00:11:09.536 --> 00:11:10.761
So if that's the case,

00:11:10.761 --> 00:11:13.273
then just make it about 
moving through the hip sockets

00:11:13.273 --> 00:11:14.908
and maybe even 
finding a little lift

00:11:14.908 --> 00:11:16.609
through the armpit 
and chest to open up

00:11:16.609 --> 00:11:18.611
through the pecs 
and the shoulders.

00:11:18.611 --> 00:11:19.496
But if you're on a hard surface,

00:11:19.496 --> 00:11:22.255
you can really get a nice little

00:11:22.255 --> 00:11:25.583
gluteus maximus 
(laughs) massage.

00:11:26.856 --> 00:11:28.958
Dude, if you're sore 
from being on your feet,

00:11:28.958 --> 00:11:30.861
then you know what 
I'm talking about though.

00:11:30.861 --> 00:11:31.995
Yes.

00:11:33.837 --> 00:11:35.038
Okay.

00:11:35.038 --> 00:11:38.909
After you've windshield 
wipered the legs a little bit,

00:11:38.909 --> 00:11:40.243
we'll sit up nice and tall

00:11:40.243 --> 00:11:43.813
with the legs 
straight out in front.

00:11:43.813 --> 00:11:45.882
And take your 
right knee, lift it up,

00:11:45.882 --> 00:11:47.484
hug your right knee in,

00:11:47.484 --> 00:11:51.121
and swim the right 
fingertips around for a twist.

00:11:51.121 --> 00:11:52.489
Press into your left heel,

00:11:52.489 --> 00:11:55.091
inhale, sit up nice and tall,

00:11:55.091 --> 00:11:58.395
and exhale, look 
past your right shoulder.

00:11:58.395 --> 00:12:00.269
Inhale,

00:12:00.269 --> 00:12:02.238
and exhale, come back.

00:12:02.238 --> 00:12:05.174
Take your right 
foot into your left hand

00:12:05.174 --> 00:12:06.655
and we're gonna cradle it,

00:12:06.655 --> 00:12:08.634
maybe rocking a 
little bit back and forth,

00:12:08.634 --> 00:12:10.012
or if it feels good,

00:12:10.012 --> 00:12:12.915
you can take the 
foot to the elbow.

00:12:15.572 --> 00:12:19.872
Maybe rock front to back, 
a little side to side.

00:12:19.872 --> 00:12:21.144
And then release it.

00:12:21.144 --> 00:12:24.013
Cleansing breath here, 
inhale in,

00:12:24.013 --> 00:12:27.993
exhale, let it go.

00:12:27.998 --> 00:12:29.382
Awesome, hug the left knee in,

00:12:29.382 --> 00:12:31.510
give it a hug,

00:12:31.510 --> 00:12:33.576
swim it around, find your twist.

00:12:33.576 --> 00:12:36.119
Press through that 
right heel for stability,

00:12:36.119 --> 00:12:38.291
a little grounding in the twist,

00:12:38.291 --> 00:12:41.127
and then inhale, 
sit up nice and tall,

00:12:41.127 --> 00:12:44.130
and exhale, 
journey into your twist.

00:12:45.231 --> 00:12:47.741
There's a tendency 
here to lean back into it,

00:12:47.741 --> 00:12:50.637
so use that pressing 
of the right heel forward

00:12:50.637 --> 00:12:53.356
and this lift up through 
the sternum to ground you.

00:12:53.356 --> 00:12:54.374
Sit up nice and tall,

00:12:54.374 --> 00:12:56.643
even if it means 
you don't twist as much.

00:12:56.643 --> 00:12:58.077
One more breath.

00:12:59.112 --> 00:13:01.247
Use your exhale to release.

00:13:01.247 --> 00:13:03.783
Right hand takes 
the left foot this time,

00:13:03.783 --> 00:13:04.918
we open up through the hip,

00:13:04.918 --> 00:13:08.187
and it might just 
be here, ooh, working.

00:13:08.187 --> 00:13:12.148
In time we might take 
it here, a deeper stretch.

00:13:12.148 --> 00:13:13.917
And everyone's just 
anatomically different,

00:13:13.917 --> 00:13:15.408
some hips are really open,

00:13:15.408 --> 00:13:18.331
some are really 
rotated internally,

00:13:18.331 --> 00:13:21.750
so just check it out, 
feel it out.

00:13:25.438 --> 00:13:27.206
Awesome, and then release.

00:13:27.206 --> 00:13:29.135
Cleansing breath here,
this time with arms.

00:13:29.135 --> 00:13:31.271
We inhale, reach for the sky,

00:13:31.271 --> 00:13:32.839
and exhale, bend the knees,

00:13:32.839 --> 00:13:34.441
cleansing breath, bow forward,

00:13:34.441 --> 00:13:38.945
pashit motanasana here 
in seated forward fold.

00:13:38.945 --> 00:13:41.548
Bow your head, close your eyes.

00:13:45.165 --> 00:13:49.335
Feel that stretch through the
back body as you breathe deep.

00:13:53.580 --> 00:13:55.849
And then slowly roll it up.

00:13:56.713 --> 00:13:59.783
Hike both heels in 
towards the center.

00:14:01.093 --> 00:14:04.686
This is our last pose here, 
so enjoy this time.

00:14:04.686 --> 00:14:07.880
You can always 
continue on after this video,

00:14:07.880 --> 00:14:09.262
but just a little something.

00:14:09.262 --> 00:14:10.754
We'll come into cobbler's pose,

00:14:10.754 --> 00:14:13.486
so the knees come nice and wide

00:14:13.486 --> 00:14:14.734
and the feet come together,

00:14:14.734 --> 00:14:17.494
and if you have a hard 
time sitting up tall here,

00:14:17.494 --> 00:14:19.358
just bring the toes out,

00:14:19.358 --> 00:14:21.527
or sit up on a blanket or block.

00:14:21.527 --> 00:14:23.090
And or.

00:14:23.090 --> 00:14:24.788
We're gonna 
use the thumbs here

00:14:24.788 --> 00:14:26.092
to really massage the feet.

00:14:26.092 --> 00:14:30.403
So start with the arches, 
rubbing the arches of the feet,

00:14:30.403 --> 00:14:34.207
and then on to 
the heels, the ankles,

00:14:34.207 --> 00:14:37.043
and just start to 
soften your gaze here,

00:14:37.043 --> 00:14:38.911
so, you know, 
when you're at work,

00:14:38.911 --> 00:14:42.115
you have to be, you know, 
spinning a ton of plates

00:14:42.115 --> 00:14:43.950
and focused and eyes open,

00:14:43.950 --> 00:14:46.252
so just kind of go 
inward a little bit here.

00:14:46.252 --> 00:14:48.254
Soften your gaze, 
you might even close your eyes,

00:14:48.254 --> 00:14:50.972
as you rub your toes.

00:14:56.960 --> 00:14:58.728
Awesome, then grab your ankles.

00:14:58.728 --> 00:15:00.897
Inhale, lift your heart,

00:15:00.897 --> 00:15:03.333
and exhale, bend the 
elbows left to right,

00:15:03.333 --> 00:15:06.302
come forward, try to 
touch your nose to your toes.

00:15:06.302 --> 00:15:10.640
Again, feel that big 
stretch in the back body.

00:15:10.640 --> 00:15:13.009
Relax your shoulders 
down away from your ears.

00:15:13.009 --> 00:15:15.778
Take one more breath here.

00:15:15.778 --> 00:15:17.780
And tuck the 
chin into the chest,

00:15:17.780 --> 00:15:19.940
and slowly roll it up.

00:15:21.431 --> 00:15:25.602
Awesome, cross the ankles 
and we'll come to sukhasan.

00:15:27.303 --> 00:15:29.739
Final cleansing breath, 
here we go.

00:15:29.739 --> 00:15:34.111
Inhale deeply through the nose,
and exhale,

00:15:34.111 --> 00:15:37.123
relax your shoulders 
as you exhale completely,

00:15:37.123 --> 00:15:39.372
out through the mouth.

00:15:41.407 --> 00:15:43.176
Awesome work.

00:15:43.176 --> 00:15:44.744
Alright, my darling friends,

00:15:44.744 --> 00:15:46.589
so that was your 
practice for today.

00:15:46.589 --> 00:15:47.510
If you're hungry for more,

00:15:47.510 --> 00:15:49.479
dive into 
another video right now,

00:15:49.479 --> 00:15:52.952
or might I suggest maybe 
taking an epson salt bath,

00:15:52.952 --> 00:15:54.591
if you're not already into 
that you should give it a try.

00:15:54.591 --> 00:15:55.842
You can also 
just do a foot bath,

00:15:55.842 --> 00:15:57.937
it's really quick and easy 
and a little goes a long way,

00:15:57.937 --> 00:16:00.492
I swear to heaven.

00:16:00.492 --> 00:16:02.862
Another great thing is 
sending your legs up the wall,

00:16:02.862 --> 00:16:05.798
for legs up the 
wall pose, vrida karini.

00:16:05.798 --> 00:16:07.737
We have a whole 
video for legs up the wall

00:16:07.737 --> 00:16:10.269
which talks about 
how amazing that is,

00:16:10.269 --> 00:16:12.305
and again, how a 
little goes a long way,

00:16:12.305 --> 00:16:13.610
so you just kick 
your legs up the wall,

00:16:13.610 --> 00:16:15.385
and you can kind of support 
your lower back with a blanket.

00:16:15.385 --> 00:16:17.540
Anyway, check that 
out if you're interested.

00:16:17.540 --> 00:16:18.414
I've got your back.

00:16:18.414 --> 00:16:20.283
Thank you so much for 
the request, I appreciate it,

00:16:20.283 --> 00:16:22.852
that's one of the things I love
about this diverse community

00:16:22.852 --> 00:16:25.288
that is Find What Feels Good 
and Yoga with Adriene,

00:16:25.288 --> 00:16:27.650
is that we are 
having conversations

00:16:27.650 --> 00:16:29.792
and we're all 
together, me included,

00:16:29.792 --> 00:16:32.482
trying to find ways in which 
we can use the tools of yoga

00:16:32.482 --> 00:16:36.966
to live a happy, 
healthy, and supported life.

00:16:36.966 --> 00:16:40.002
So namaste from 
my heart to yours.

00:16:40.002 --> 00:16:41.804
Thank you so much 
for sharing your time

00:16:41.804 --> 00:16:43.239
and your energy with me.

00:16:43.239 --> 00:16:44.974
Let us know what 
you do down below,

00:16:44.974 --> 00:16:47.176
let us support you, let's 
have a conversation down below,

00:16:47.176 --> 00:16:48.488
let us know what you 
do or how you're feeling

00:16:48.488 --> 00:16:49.642
after this practice,

00:16:49.642 --> 00:16:52.041
and subscribe to the 
channel if you haven't already,

00:16:52.041 --> 00:16:54.050

00:16:54.050 --> 00:16:55.585
and I'll see you next time.

00:16:55.585 --> 00:16:57.386
Take good care.

00:16:57.386 --> 00:16:59.989
(upbeat music)
