00:00:20.010 --> 00:00:22.470 I invite you encourage you to lift the 00:00:22.470 --> 00:00:25.199 hips up on something comfy so you can 00:00:25.199 --> 00:00:26.970 take a quick second to get settled in 00:00:26.970 --> 00:00:29.550 here either lifting up on a blanket or 00:00:29.550 --> 00:00:34.500 towel or block or pillow and I'll give 00:00:34.500 --> 00:00:35.670 you a second to do that and when you 00:00:35.670 --> 00:00:37.739 arrive just come into a nice comfortable 00:00:37.739 --> 00:00:45.360 sea instead of nice and tall when you 00:00:45.360 --> 00:00:48.710 get settled in and you're all secure 00:00:48.710 --> 00:00:51.950 relax your shoulders 00:00:52.340 --> 00:00:58.379 close your eyes and allow the hands to 00:00:58.379 --> 00:01:00.329 rest gently on the tops of the thighs or 00:01:00.329 --> 00:01:03.409 the knees wherever they naturally lie 00:01:03.409 --> 00:01:06.180 and I'll ask you to think about what 00:01:06.180 --> 00:01:08.280 feels best today to have the palms face 00:01:08.280 --> 00:01:14.270 down or to have the palms face up 00:01:19.110 --> 00:01:24.000 begin to notice your breath and feel 00:01:24.000 --> 00:01:30.380 your sit bones connect downward 00:01:31.799 --> 00:01:39.530 begin to feel your heart lifting upward 00:01:39.530 --> 00:01:44.030 and again relax your shoulders 00:01:46.860 --> 00:01:52.230 we'll soften through the jaw here soften 00:01:52.230 --> 00:01:57.690 through the lips soften through the 00:01:57.690 --> 00:02:00.980 fingertips and toes 00:02:10.280 --> 00:02:14.330 give yourself permission to be

challenging for some 00:02:25.430 --> 00:02:29.959 for most for me too so just know that 00:02:29.959 --> 00:02:34.240 this is part of a balanced practice 00:02:34.240 --> 00:02:37.100 meeting and greeting the things that are 00:02:37.100 --> 00:02:39.579 difficult 00:02:41.750 --> 00:02:44.900 with a sense of ease and grace and just 00:02:44.900 --> 00:02:47.440 honesty 00:02:52.910 -->

00:11:11.220 --> 00:11:14.040 might be able to bring our forehead to 00:11:14.040 --> 00:11:17.370 the fists or maybe even one day to the 00:11:17.370 --> 00:11:19.350 floor never underestimate the power of 00:11:19.350 --> 00:11:21.300 your breath breathe into the backs of 00:11:21.300 --> 00:11:23.910 the legs breathe into your hips breathe 00:11:23.910 --> 00:11:29.340 into the back body stay

now we're gonna bring 00:11:40.170 --> 00:11:41.700 the palms underneath the backs of the 00:11:41.700 --> 00:11:45.650 thighs hike those knees up nice and slow 00:11:45.650 --> 00:11:48.750 then I'll use my fingertips to come up 00:11:48.750 --> 00:11:51.630 into a squat here so if I have the 00:11:51.630 --> 00:11:53.610 blanket or the block I can do a couple 00:11:53.610 --> 00:11:55.020 things I can bring it underneath my 00:11:55.020 --> 00:11:57.810 heels or I can use that block to sit on 00:11:57.810 --> 00:12:00.420 here if the heels don't come to the 00:12:00.420 --> 00:12:02.520 ground no worries you can keep them 00:12:02.520 --> 00:12:04.440 lifted everyone lift your chest your 00:12:04.440 --> 00:12:06.000 sternum up maybe bring the palms 00:12:06.000 --> 00:12:10.500 together at the heart so we connect 00:12:10.500 --> 00:12:13.470 deeply to the breath to the sensations 00:12:13.470 --> 00:12:16.230 of the body here we get down to our 00:12:16.230 --> 00:12:18.300 roots here think about the shape and 00:12:18.300 --> 00:12:22.050 other cultures and we do a little 00:12:22.050 --> 00:12:23.700 postural work here with the breath 00:12:23.700 --> 00:12:26.910 inhaling imagining the breath travelling 00:12:26.910 --> 00:12:27.580 down 00:12:27.580 --> 00:12:32.860 the tail to the coccyx belly fills with 00:12:32.860 --> 00:12:34.270 air you can't even feel it in the 00:12:34.270 --> 00:12:38.800 buttocks I can and then on an exhale we 00:12:38.800 --> 00:12:41.470 imagine that breath traveling up and out 00:12:41.470 --> 00:12:46.750 through the nose press your elbows your 00:12:46.750 --> 00:12:49.510 arms into your leg squeeze your legs 00:12:49.510 --> 00:12:53.730 into your arm so we sit at desk chairs 00:12:53.730 --> 00:12:56.710 couches toilets all these things that 00:12:56.710 --> 00:13:04.060 are kind of affecting influencing this 00:13:04.060 --> 00:13:06.070 posture that brings a lot of fatigue and 00:13:06.070 --> 00:13:08.020 tightness and ultimately pain to the 00:13:08.020 --> 00:13:11.950 body so here in this version of Milad 00:13:11.950 --> 00:13:14.880 sauna you'll get squat deep yogic squat 00:13:14.880 --> 00:13:19.990 kind of get back to our roots days where 00:13:19.990 --> 00:13:23.800 we gave birth like this ate like this 00:13:23.800 --> 00:13:32.370 cooked like this released like this 00:13:35.279 --> 00:13:37.600 and if you're just dying here you can 00:13:37.600 --> 00:13:39.130 take breaths okay this takes a while to 00:13:39.130 --> 00:13:41.350 build this practice but I really want 00:13:41.350 --> 00:13:43.210 you to get into that deep breath so when 00:13:43.210 --> 00:13:45.250 you feel like you've met your edge find 00:13:45.250 --> 00:13:47.770 that nice long smooth deep breath you 00:13:47.770 --> 00:13:51.730 can always be on the palms here we're 00:13:51.730 --> 00:13:54.399 seated upon a book or lock just for a 00:13:54.399 --> 00:13:57.120 little more support 00:14:05.860 --> 00:14:08.050 and we'll continue our soft moving 00:14:08.050 --> 00:14:09.820 meditation by bringing the left palm to 00:14:09.820 --> 00:14:13.450 the center and inhaling reaching the 00:14:13.450 --> 00:14:15.580 right fingertips up overhead if you can 00:14:15.580 --> 00:14:18.430 press that left arm into that leg if 00:14:18.430 --> 00:14:20.200 your body allows you to do

00:26:47.239 --> 00:26:49.399 what you make it you know sometimes the 00:26:49.399 --> 00:26:52.219 chattering goes or what we need and the 00:26:52.219 --> 00:26:54.830 six-pack abs and sometimes we just need 00:26:54.830 --> 00:26:56.929 to lie down and find our breath and 00:26:56.929 --> 00:26:59.509 swish swash our toes back and forth like 00:26:59.509 --> 00:27:02.539 we did when we were kids and just you 00:27:02.539 --> 00:27:04.609 know find a little innocence and just 00:27:04.609 --> 00:27:07.279 get back to who we really are I know 00:27:07.279 --> 00:27:09.409 that sounds kind of loaded but I believe 00:27:09.409 --> 00:27:11.499 in that I think that yoga helps 00:27:11.499 --> 00:27:15.440 definitely reminds me of that cuz that's 00:27:15.440 --> 00:27:17.179 what our yoga's all about getting back 00:27:17.179 --> 00:27:23.769 to you about the pose is a lot about the 00:27:23.769 --> 00:27:27.970 diet or anything 00:27:27.970 --> 00:27:35.220 it's all about you so here we are 00:27:35.230 --> 00:27:37.740 at the end of our practice for today I 00:27:37.740 --> 00:27:40.210 might bring my arms gently out to my 00:27:40.210 --> 00:27:43.510 sides and I encourage you I know we're 00:27:43.510 --> 00:27:44.799 all very busy but I encourage you to 00:27:44.799 --> 00:27:47.019 take at least 10 nice long smooth deep 00:27:47.019 --> 00:27:51.610 breaths here and then after that have an 00:27:51.610 --> 00:27:53.969 awesome day 00:27:59.970 --> 00:28:00.450 you 00:28:00.450 --> 00:28:08.980 [Music]
