00:00:00.109 --> 00:00:02.769
(upbeat music)

00:00:12.508 --> 00:00:15.520
- Hello, my traveling friend.
Welcome.

00:00:15.520 --> 00:00:20.700
Let's start standing in
a nice comfortable stance,

00:00:20.700 --> 00:00:23.040
feet hip width apart. 
Obviously, I'm on my yoga mat

00:00:23.040 --> 00:00:25.200
but you do not have to be.

00:00:25.200 --> 00:00:26.720
Wherever you are is wonderful.

00:00:26.720 --> 00:00:28.710
In fact, I love you 
for selecting this video

00:00:28.710 --> 00:00:32.920
and taking a time 
on your travels to

00:00:34.365 --> 00:00:35.970
check in with your body,

00:00:35.970 --> 00:00:38.000
do somethin' good for yourself.

00:00:40.091 --> 00:00:42.720
Feet hip width apart,
just standing.

00:00:42.720 --> 00:00:46.920
We're not gonna draw too
much attention to ourselves.

00:00:46.920 --> 00:00:49.080
Although, you can.

00:00:49.080 --> 00:00:52.900
We are gonna find some nice
little stretches and breaths

00:00:52.900 --> 00:00:56.560
to support us on the journey.

00:00:56.560 --> 00:00:58.730
Just stand up nice and tall.
If you feel comfortable,

00:00:58.730 --> 00:01:02.860
you can close your eyes or just
allow your focus to soften.

00:01:02.860 --> 00:01:05.680
So you can soften
your peripheral view.

00:01:05.680 --> 00:01:08.880
Just maybe look
down past your nose.

00:01:08.880 --> 00:01:11.680
Despite the
environment around you,

00:01:12.765 --> 00:01:14.920
come into stillness.
Feel your feet on the ground.

00:01:14.920 --> 00:01:19.150
Just ground for a second
by taking a deep breath in.

00:01:19.150 --> 00:01:21.880
And a long breath out.

00:01:21.880 --> 00:01:25.080
Then drop your left ear
over your left shoulder.

00:01:25.080 --> 00:01:27.190
Feel this deep 
stretch in the neck

00:01:27.190 --> 00:01:30.468
as you draw the
shoulder blades together.

00:01:33.640 --> 00:01:36.510
And then for a deeper stretch,
you might take the left hand

00:01:36.510 --> 00:01:39.355
over and rest it gently on

00:01:39.355 --> 00:01:42.200
the right temple 
or the right ear.

00:01:42.200 --> 00:01:47.590
Benji's here if
you're a fan of animals.

00:01:47.590 --> 00:01:50.220
Hopefully he'll
brighten up your travel day.

00:01:52.480 --> 00:01:56.720
Then we'll release that. Drop
your chin through to center to

00:01:56.720 --> 00:01:59.920
your chest and then take
it to the other side slowly.

00:01:59.920 --> 00:02:01.280
Right ear over right shoulder.

00:02:01.280 --> 00:02:04.010
Just notice how this
side is a little different.

00:02:04.930 --> 00:02:08.558
Maybe you've been
carrying a backpack or a bag.

00:02:10.312 --> 00:02:14.141
Or who knows what
you've been up to.

00:02:14.141 --> 00:02:15.412
Life is an adventure and

00:02:15.412 --> 00:02:18.335
I'm sure your day is

00:02:20.443 --> 00:02:22.712
emblematic of that.

00:02:22.712 --> 00:02:25.580
Take the right hand up and over.

00:02:25.580 --> 00:02:28.441
Just a soft stretch here,
breathe.

00:02:35.250 --> 00:02:36.840
Release that hand,

00:02:36.840 --> 00:02:39.080
come all the way up through
center and we're gonna take it

00:02:39.080 --> 00:02:42.655
through some
circles now, nice and slow.

00:02:44.480 --> 00:02:45.720
For these, I really like to

00:02:45.720 --> 00:02:49.210
think about drawing
a circle with my nose.

00:02:49.210 --> 00:02:51.220
So, I'm not just gonna 
throw my head around

00:02:51.220 --> 00:02:55.183
but I'm almost
tracing a line with my nose.

00:02:56.400 --> 00:02:59.200
If your shoulders are really
creeping up towards your ears,

00:02:59.200 --> 00:03:03.747
think about adding a little
weight to your fingertips here.

00:03:04.840 --> 00:03:07.206
And then reverse your circle.

00:03:09.320 --> 00:03:11.880
And chances are if anyone sees
you doing this at the airport,

00:03:11.880 --> 00:03:15.240
you're gonna inspire them to

00:03:15.240 --> 00:03:18.760
move their neck a little
bit which is going to create a

00:03:18.760 --> 00:03:23.350
lovely little
ripple effect so high five.

00:03:23.350 --> 00:03:26.160
Bring the head
back over the heart.

00:03:26.160 --> 00:03:28.460
If the feet are not together,

00:03:29.563 --> 00:03:30.749
go ahead and 
draw them together.

00:03:30.749 --> 00:03:35.165
So move them from 
hip width apart to a nice

00:03:35.165 --> 00:03:37.960
zipped up line in the legs.

00:03:37.960 --> 00:03:40.560
And then we're gonna inhale
reach the arms up and overhead,

00:03:40.560 --> 00:03:43.590
interlace the fingertips
and you're just gonna bump the

00:03:43.590 --> 00:03:48.000
hips to one side as you
stretch and then press into

00:03:48.000 --> 00:03:51.640
the heels and the feet
and go to the other side.

00:03:51.640 --> 00:03:55.040
Just a couple of
times back and forth.

00:03:55.040 --> 00:03:56.840
And again, if someone 
sees you doing this,

00:03:56.840 --> 00:03:58.871
chances are 
you're gonna inspire them

00:03:58.871 --> 00:04:00.960
to take a little stretch 
and check in with

00:04:00.960 --> 00:04:03.540
their body so 
I think that is awesome.

00:04:07.321 --> 00:04:08.760
Then we'll release that.

00:04:08.760 --> 00:04:12.010
We're gonna interlace the
fingertips now behind the back.

00:04:12.010 --> 00:04:15.140
Keep the legs
zipped up here if you can.

00:04:15.920 --> 00:04:18.120
And if you're doing this seated,

00:04:18.120 --> 00:04:23.026
you can just melt your belly
over your thighs in your chair.

00:04:23.026 --> 00:04:25.560
Opening up
through the chest here.

00:04:25.560 --> 00:04:27.320
We're working to 
get the palms together

00:04:27.320 --> 00:04:29.440
but it might be
really tight so you might

00:04:29.440 --> 00:04:33.100
square the wrists
like I'm doing here.

00:04:36.030 --> 00:04:38.530
Then inhale,
lengthen through the front body.

00:04:38.530 --> 00:04:41.474
Maybe take your gaze
up just a little bit.

00:04:41.474 --> 00:04:42.810
And then, exhale we're gonna

00:04:42.810 --> 00:04:46.004
bow forward with
a bend in the knees.

00:04:46.004 --> 00:04:47.120
Ooh.

00:04:49.873 --> 00:04:52.240
For stability, squeeze the legs.

00:04:52.240 --> 00:04:56.400
Just allow some blood
to flow to the head here.

00:04:56.400 --> 00:04:58.840
Reach your knuckles
up towards the sky.

00:05:01.421 --> 00:05:05.509
Make sure you're breathing here
and not holding your breath.

00:05:10.010 --> 00:05:11.760
And then ground
through your feet,

00:05:11.760 --> 00:05:16.771
keep your knees bent as
you slowly rise back up.

00:05:18.014 --> 00:05:18.720
Great.

00:05:18.720 --> 00:05:20.430
Release the bind now

00:05:20.430 --> 00:05:23.980
and you're gonna bring your
fingertips to your shoulders.

00:05:23.980 --> 00:05:26.010
You can bring the feet back to

00:05:26.010 --> 00:05:28.270
shoulder width if that
feels more stable or keep them

00:05:28.270 --> 00:05:30.530
together or maybe
you're in a seat.

00:05:30.530 --> 00:05:33.230
We're just gonna
slowly twist a

00:05:33.230 --> 00:05:35.850
little to the
right and the left.

00:05:36.960 --> 00:05:38.160
And this is gonna be a little

00:05:38.160 --> 00:05:42.098
fasted pace here as much as
you're comfortable doing.

00:05:42.098 --> 00:05:43.440
We're not here for long.

00:05:43.440 --> 00:05:47.012
Breathing deep, lengthening up
through the crown of the head.

00:05:47.012 --> 00:05:50.920
Just energizing a bit here,
getting some mobility.

00:05:51.820 --> 00:05:53.030
It's fine.

00:05:56.158 --> 00:05:58.720
And then we'll
come back to center.

00:05:58.720 --> 00:06:01.740
You're just gonna take
some circles now with elbows.

00:06:04.376 --> 00:06:05.936
Oh, yeah.

00:06:06.980 --> 00:06:09.095
Then reverse it.

00:06:15.930 --> 00:06:17.416
Nice. Then you're 
gonna cross the

00:06:17.416 --> 00:06:20.040
right arm over
your left shoulder.

00:06:20.040 --> 00:06:21.720
Take your left palm.

00:06:21.720 --> 00:06:24.387
You probably 
remember this from old

00:06:24.387 --> 00:06:28.310
physical education gym
class but in this version you're

00:06:28.310 --> 00:06:30.650
gonna really drop
the right shoulder down.

00:06:33.105 --> 00:06:36.160
Great. Then bring your left ear
over your left shoulder.

00:06:38.050 --> 00:06:39.850
And your right ear
over your right shoulder.

00:06:39.850 --> 00:06:42.780
Ooh, ooh, oh, oh, oh.

00:06:42.780 --> 00:06:44.630
Left ear over left shoulder.

00:06:45.991 --> 00:06:48.880
Right ear over right shoulder.

00:06:50.677 --> 00:06:52.640
And release.
Shake it out.

00:06:52.640 --> 00:06:54.050
Take it to the other side.

00:06:56.459 --> 00:06:59.360
So find the stretch first,
drop your left shoulder down.

00:07:01.684 --> 00:07:03.960
And then you can add the neck.

00:07:03.960 --> 00:07:06.480
Right ear over 
right shoulder, breathe in.

00:07:08.302 --> 00:07:10.650
Left ear over left shoulder.

00:07:12.627 --> 00:07:15.290
Ooh, hello, trapezius.

00:07:15.290 --> 00:07:17.500
Adriene, nice to meet you.

00:07:17.500 --> 00:07:19.804
Right ear over right shoulder.

00:07:22.762 --> 00:07:26.418
Left ear over left shoulder.

00:07:27.360 --> 00:07:32.000
And after a couple of
tick-tocks with the neck,

00:07:32.000 --> 00:07:34.020
you can release that.

00:07:34.020 --> 00:07:35.390
Give it a shake.

00:07:36.320 --> 00:07:39.970
Alright, so here is a moment
where putting your hand,

00:07:39.970 --> 00:07:41.320
your left hand on something,

00:07:41.320 --> 00:07:43.990
whether it's a wall or a chair,

00:07:43.990 --> 00:07:46.660
could be
beneficial but not necessary.

00:07:46.660 --> 00:07:49.180
We're gonna bring the left hand
to the waist if we don't have

00:07:49.180 --> 00:07:50.690
a piece of
furniture to put it on.

00:07:50.690 --> 00:07:51.880
Maybe you have a friend

00:07:51.880 --> 00:07:54.174
(chuckles) who will
help you with your balance.

00:07:54.174 --> 00:07:55.680
We're gonna bring
the right knee up,

00:07:55.680 --> 00:07:57.480
we're gonna 
catch the right shin

00:07:57.480 --> 00:08:01.037
or ankle with the right
foot for a quad stretch here.

00:08:01.037 --> 00:08:04.260
Now what's going to really make
this is your pelvis position.

00:08:04.260 --> 00:08:08.360
So the more you draw your
tailbone in and the heel up,

00:08:08.360 --> 00:08:11.060
the deeper the stretch.
You can just kind of play here.

00:08:11.060 --> 00:08:14.905
The cool thing is we're also
opening up through the chest.

00:08:20.160 --> 00:08:22.500
And before you
release this stretch,

00:08:22.500 --> 00:08:24.600
you're gonna draw your 
right knee all the way up

00:08:24.600 --> 00:08:26.830
into the chest if you can,
interlace the fingertips,

00:08:26.830 --> 00:08:29.390
squeeze, flex the foot.

00:08:29.390 --> 00:08:32.606
Big stretch in that right glute,
low back area.

00:08:32.606 --> 00:08:35.296
Nice and then release,
put it down.

00:08:35.296 --> 00:08:37.410
Let's do the same
thing on the other side.

00:08:39.396 --> 00:08:42.764
Quad stretch,
open chest,

00:08:44.084 --> 00:08:45.566
standing tall.

00:08:53.778 --> 00:08:55.210
And then try to hold onto your

00:08:55.210 --> 00:08:59.000
core balance as you hug
that left knee all the way up,

00:08:59.000 --> 00:09:00.910
squeeze it in.

00:09:03.838 --> 00:09:05.980
Let it go.
There's a sound of a plane.

00:09:05.980 --> 00:09:09.358
I'm not sure if the mic
will pick it up but outside and

00:09:09.358 --> 00:09:13.347
it's very apropos
for airport yoga.

00:09:13.347 --> 00:09:14.700
Alright, standing here,

00:09:14.700 --> 00:09:18.551
we're gonna cross the
right foot over the left.

00:09:18.551 --> 00:09:21.320
Inhale, reach the arms 
all the way up, big stretch.

00:09:21.320 --> 00:09:24.650
Exhale, Forward Fold 
all the way down.

00:09:24.650 --> 00:09:26.360
Slight bend in the knees here.

00:09:26.360 --> 00:09:28.580
Just micro-bend 
so they're not locked

00:09:28.580 --> 00:09:30.770
and just allow the head to rest.

00:09:32.021 --> 00:09:35.730
Not to rest,
to hang and to rest.

00:09:39.607 --> 00:09:40.720
Lovely.

00:09:40.720 --> 00:09:43.000
Hands come to the waistline.

00:09:43.000 --> 00:09:45.694
Slowly rise up.

00:09:47.720 --> 00:09:49.680
And same thing
on the other side.

00:09:50.813 --> 00:09:53.880
Left ankle
crosses over the right.

00:09:53.880 --> 00:09:56.358
Reach all the way up,
deep breath in.

00:09:57.803 --> 00:10:00.030
Slow fold as you breathe out.

00:10:11.408 --> 00:10:13.140
Alright, inhale in.

00:10:13.140 --> 00:10:15.590
Exhale, hands
come to the waistline.

00:10:15.590 --> 00:10:17.060
Rise up.

00:10:17.060 --> 00:10:18.240
This is the last thing we're

00:10:18.240 --> 00:10:22.030
gonna do and it's going
to be the most yoga-y thing.

00:10:22.030 --> 00:10:24.110
But if you're 
going to do it, do it, right?

00:10:24.110 --> 00:10:27.200
Let's do it. Alright,
right foot's in front,

00:10:27.200 --> 00:10:28.280
left foot's in back.

00:10:28.280 --> 00:10:31.640
You don't have
to do big gesture.

00:10:31.640 --> 00:10:34.210
It can just be small.

00:10:34.210 --> 00:10:36.600
But right leg is in front,
left leg is in back and then

00:10:36.600 --> 00:10:38.670
we're gonna take the
arms into Eagle Arms.

00:10:38.670 --> 00:10:42.370
So the right arm is gonna
go underneath the left arm.

00:10:42.370 --> 00:10:45.586
Like I said, this is
the one yoga-y looking thing.

00:10:45.586 --> 00:10:47.040
You're gonna take the elbows up

00:10:47.040 --> 00:10:48.160
but your body is
going to be like,

00:10:48.160 --> 00:10:51.275
"Thank you,
insert your name here."

00:10:51.275 --> 00:10:53.940
So here we're gonna go.
Elbows are going to go up here.

00:10:53.940 --> 00:10:54.960
On the exhale,

00:10:54.960 --> 00:10:57.880
you're gonna bend your front
knee just a little bit so it's

00:10:57.880 --> 00:11:01.256
not locked and you're
gonna round down into

00:11:04.346 --> 00:11:07.730
a fold, a Pyramid 
fold is what it looks like.

00:11:07.730 --> 00:11:10.760
It's not a pyramid
scheme but a Pyramid fold.

00:11:10.760 --> 00:11:13.830
And maybe that leg can
start to lengthen in time.

00:11:13.830 --> 00:11:17.692
I just want to keep you
safe so you can keep that bent.

00:11:17.692 --> 00:11:20.522
Dig into your back heel firmly.

00:11:20.522 --> 00:11:23.884
And then slowly
come up and release.

00:11:23.884 --> 00:11:26.709
Like I said,
that's gonna be the most

00:11:28.147 --> 00:11:30.690
dynamic thing that you're
doing in the airport here.

00:11:30.690 --> 00:11:31.690
Okay, take it to the other side.

00:11:31.690 --> 00:11:34.259
You literally can just
shift through the center.

00:11:35.160 --> 00:11:37.680
This is the last little bit.

00:11:37.680 --> 00:11:38.560
So here we go.

00:11:38.560 --> 00:11:41.240
Eagle arms, this time
left arm underneath the right.

00:11:41.240 --> 00:11:44.505
Inhale,
lift your elbows, big stretch.

00:11:44.505 --> 00:11:48.600
Exhale, slight bend in that
back knee as you come forward.

00:11:48.600 --> 00:11:50.620
Keep your back heel down.

00:11:51.694 --> 00:11:53.360
Lower back, hammies, everything.

00:11:53.360 --> 00:11:57.760
That's the thing is this one's
gonna look more like a yoga

00:11:57.760 --> 00:12:02.520
pose but it's gonna target
all the good spots for us here.

00:12:04.574 --> 00:12:08.910
Folding forward in your
Pyramid with Eagle Arms.

00:12:10.810 --> 00:12:13.340
You're amazing.
Inhale in deeply.

00:12:14.694 --> 00:12:17.880
Exhale to dig
into that back heel.

00:12:17.880 --> 00:12:20.360
Engage the back leg
to come all the way up.

00:12:20.360 --> 00:12:23.140
Dude, and you're done.
If you want,

00:12:23.140 --> 00:12:27.037
you can end by swinging the
arms a little bit left to right.

00:12:28.136 --> 00:12:30.305
Lifting the chest,
taking a deep breath in.

00:12:30.305 --> 00:12:33.926
Little Knocking
On Heaven's Door, in public.

00:12:34.703 --> 00:12:36.750
Into it.

00:12:36.750 --> 00:12:40.650
Thank you so much for taking
this time to stretch your body.

00:12:40.650 --> 00:12:42.160
Just kind of connect to your

00:12:42.160 --> 00:12:44.520
emotional health and
your mental health, too.

00:12:44.520 --> 00:12:46.134
Traveling's really fun but

00:12:46.134 --> 00:12:49.592
I know how it 
can be so thanks for

00:12:49.592 --> 00:12:51.593
sharing this time with me

00:12:51.593 --> 00:12:55.002
and I hope you have
an amazing adventure.

00:12:55.002 --> 00:12:57.268
Take good care.

00:12:57.268 --> 00:13:00.924
(upbeat music)
