00:00:00.245 --> 00:00:02.513
- Hello my friends, and
welcome to Yoga with Adriene.

00:00:02.513 --> 00:00:03.798
I'm Adriene and today we have

00:00:03.798 --> 00:00:06.172
a really sweet, 
lovely little practice

00:00:06.172 --> 00:00:08.839
for when you're feeling anxiety.

00:00:09.824 --> 00:00:10.778
We've all been there,

00:00:10.778 --> 00:00:13.109
it's very natural in this
crazy world we live in,

00:00:13.109 --> 00:00:18.202
to be met with feeling 
self-anxiousness,

00:00:18.669 --> 00:00:22.402
feeling down, blue, 
nervous, fear,

00:00:22.410 --> 00:00:24.586
so I find the tools of
yoga, especially at home,

00:00:24.586 --> 00:00:26.854
a little goes a long
way, are really helpful.

00:00:26.854 --> 00:00:28.430
So grab a pillow if you like,

00:00:28.430 --> 00:00:29.850
get into something comfy,

00:00:29.850 --> 00:00:31.325
and let's help you 
find what feels good

00:00:31.325 --> 00:00:35.384
with this hands-free,
low-to-the-ground, chill practice.

00:00:35.384 --> 00:00:36.799
Let's get started.

00:00:36.799 --> 00:00:40.132
(mellow acoustic music)

00:00:48.322 --> 00:00:50.981
Alright, so let's start sitting

00:00:50.981 --> 00:00:54.660
on a blanket or a 
pillow if you have it.

00:00:54.660 --> 00:00:56.820
Let's lift the hips up a little.

00:00:56.820 --> 00:00:58.276
Now we're gonna 
bring the left heel in

00:00:58.276 --> 00:01:00.526
and then the right heel in.

00:01:02.228 --> 00:01:04.209
We'll bring the hands 
to rest gently

00:01:04.209 --> 00:01:06.458
on the tops of the 
knees or the thighs

00:01:06.458 --> 00:01:09.337
and we'll just take a
second to close the eyes

00:01:09.337 --> 00:01:12.420
and accept where you are today.

00:01:17.687 --> 00:01:19.713
So if you've made it this far,

00:01:19.713 --> 00:01:21.241
you're in good hands.

00:01:21.241 --> 00:01:23.617
It's a quick video
today, so stick with it,

00:01:23.617 --> 00:01:24.635
and give yourself permission

00:01:24.635 --> 00:01:26.274
to just really be 
in this moment.

00:01:26.274 --> 00:01:29.321
So here, you've landed 
in this shape

00:01:29.321 --> 00:01:32.205
maybe on your mat, 
maybe just on the ground,

00:01:32.205 --> 00:01:33.736
and you have 
committed to taking

00:01:33.736 --> 00:01:35.923
a little bit of 
time for yourself.

00:01:35.923 --> 00:01:40.475
See if we can kind of transform
the energy of the body

00:01:40.475 --> 00:01:41.892
and find support.

00:01:48.408 --> 00:01:50.552
Stack the head over the heart,

00:01:50.552 --> 00:01:52.719
the heart over the pelvis,

00:01:53.925 --> 00:01:57.612
and then just take in the
quality of air of the room,

00:01:57.612 --> 00:01:59.915
any noises,
any sounds around you.

00:01:59.915 --> 00:02:01.550
I hear a big airplane overhead,

00:02:01.550 --> 00:02:04.466
but you might hear 
different things

00:02:04.466 --> 00:02:05.610
depending on where you are.

00:02:05.610 --> 00:02:07.527
Notice your soundtrack.

00:02:08.687 --> 00:02:11.937
And just accept it all, take it all in.

00:02:16.167 --> 00:02:18.792
Great, then draw the hands
together at the heart.

00:02:18.792 --> 00:02:21.014
(inhales)

00:02:21.014 --> 00:02:22.248
Take a deep breath in,

00:02:22.248 --> 00:02:23.408
(exhales)

00:02:23.408 --> 00:02:25.275
deep breath out.

00:02:25.275 --> 00:02:27.104
Deep breath in, 
sit up nice and tall,

00:02:27.104 --> 00:02:28.680
(inhales)

00:02:28.680 --> 00:02:32.189
and exhale, 
bowing the head to the hands.

00:02:32.189 --> 00:02:35.189
Big stretch on 
the back of the neck.

00:02:39.365 --> 00:02:40.532
Big inhale in.

00:02:42.112 --> 00:02:43.695
And exhale release.

00:02:44.790 --> 00:02:48.048
Great, so, we've dropped
the pen, we're here.

00:02:48.048 --> 00:02:49.364
Let's tend into it.

00:02:49.364 --> 00:02:51.458
We're going to start today
with a little pranayama,

00:02:51.458 --> 00:02:52.720
a little breath practice.

00:02:52.720 --> 00:02:54.221
This is one of my faves.

00:02:54.221 --> 00:02:56.373
We have a whole 
video just on it,

00:02:56.373 --> 00:02:58.085
so if you really like it
or it's too complicated

00:02:58.085 --> 00:03:00.089
for you and you wanna dive in,

00:03:00.089 --> 00:03:01.157
you can go check it out,

00:03:01.157 --> 00:03:05.324
it's called alternate nostril
breathing, or nadi shodhana.

00:03:07.757 --> 00:03:08.777
And this is a really great breath

00:03:08.777 --> 00:03:12.505
to just kind of calm
and quell and chill out

00:03:12.505 --> 00:03:14.005
any frayed nerves,

00:03:15.498 --> 00:03:18.330
that feeling you have
when you're feeling like

00:03:18.330 --> 00:03:19.391
(grunts)

00:03:19.391 --> 00:03:21.929
on the edge of being
depressed and anxious.

00:03:21.929 --> 00:03:23.744
You can't decide 
if you're like feeling

00:03:23.744 --> 00:03:25.029
really blue or really anxious.

00:03:25.029 --> 00:03:26.550
You know what I'm talking about.

00:03:26.550 --> 00:03:27.684
It's great for that.

00:03:27.684 --> 00:03:29.719
So here we go, we're gonna take

00:03:29.719 --> 00:03:32.145
whatever your primary hand is.

00:03:32.145 --> 00:03:33.863
I'm gonna use the right hand

00:03:33.863 --> 00:03:35.484
and I'm just gonna bring,

00:03:35.484 --> 00:03:36.437
so we have options here.

00:03:36.437 --> 00:03:38.509
You can bring the 
middle three fingers in,

00:03:38.509 --> 00:03:39.748
kinda like a hang loose thing

00:03:39.748 --> 00:03:41.493
and use the thumb and the pinky.

00:03:41.493 --> 00:03:44.594
You can also use the
thumb and the ring finger.

00:03:44.594 --> 00:03:46.672
It's whatever works great for you.

00:03:46.672 --> 00:03:48.597
And again, we're not gonna
really break this down too much.

00:03:48.597 --> 00:03:51.568
So you can check out that
other video if you need.

00:03:51.568 --> 00:03:53.795
I'll still try to guide 
you and cue you

00:03:53.795 --> 00:03:54.898
in a way that feels good.

00:03:54.898 --> 00:03:56.647
So sit up nice and tall
and go ahead and seal

00:03:56.647 --> 00:03:58.979
the right nostril 
with your thumb.

00:03:58.979 --> 00:04:03.504
Take a deep breath in
through the left nostril.

00:04:03.504 --> 00:04:06.979
Pause, hold, 
retain the breath at the top.

00:04:06.979 --> 00:04:09.729
We switch, 
seal the left nostril,

00:04:10.786 --> 00:04:12.814
and then exhale 
out through the right.

00:04:12.814 --> 00:04:14.839
(exhaling)

00:04:14.839 --> 00:04:18.255
Deep inhale in 
through the right nostril.

00:04:20.094 --> 00:04:22.334
Pause, hold, 
retain the breath at the top

00:04:22.334 --> 00:04:25.376
as you seal and 
switch or switch and seal.

00:04:25.376 --> 00:04:28.061
Exhale out through 
the left nostril.

00:04:28.061 --> 00:04:29.762
With practice, 
this becomes easier.

00:04:29.762 --> 00:04:32.181
At first it can be a little
complicated in the brain.

00:04:32.181 --> 00:04:34.751
Inhale deeply 
through the left nostril.

00:04:34.751 --> 00:04:36.918
(inhales)

00:04:37.989 --> 00:04:41.310
Retain the breath, 
seal and switch.

00:04:41.310 --> 00:04:43.682
Exhale out through 
the right nostril.

00:04:43.682 --> 00:04:46.638
(exhales)

00:04:46.638 --> 00:04:48.600
Inhale in through the right.

00:04:48.600 --> 00:04:50.767
(inhales)

00:04:52.822 --> 00:04:53.655
Pause.

00:04:54.511 --> 00:04:57.966
Seal and switch, exhale
out through the left.

00:04:57.966 --> 00:05:00.133
(exhales)

00:05:02.378 --> 00:05:04.611
Smooth inhale 
in through the left.

00:05:04.611 --> 00:05:06.861
(inhaling)

00:05:09.844 --> 00:05:13.146
Pause, switch and seal,
exhale out through the right.

00:05:13.146 --> 00:05:15.396
(exhaling)

00:05:18.676 --> 00:05:21.593
Inhale. (inhaling)

00:05:25.090 --> 00:05:26.212
When you feel like you
have the hang of it,

00:05:26.212 --> 00:05:29.647
close your eyes, 
seal and switch, exhale.

00:05:29.647 --> 00:05:32.553
(exhales)

00:05:32.553 --> 00:05:33.797
And I'll stop cuing,

00:05:33.797 --> 00:05:35.956
just letting you 
move with the breath.

00:05:35.956 --> 00:05:38.206
(inhaling)

00:05:42.353 --> 00:05:44.603
(exhaling)

00:05:47.725 --> 00:05:49.975
(inhaling)

00:05:55.585 --> 00:05:57.835
(exhaling)

00:06:00.179 --> 00:06:02.429
(inhaling)

00:06:05.635 --> 00:06:07.885
(exhaling)

00:06:16.676 --> 00:06:18.352
And even it out.

00:06:18.352 --> 00:06:20.602
(inhaling)

00:06:22.335 --> 00:06:24.592
And then after 
you've evened it out,

00:06:24.592 --> 00:06:27.592
bring the hand down, 
close the eyes.

00:06:29.802 --> 00:06:33.969
And let your breath return
back to its natural rhythm.

00:06:36.299 --> 00:06:40.196
Great, bat the eyelashes
open, game changer.

00:06:40.196 --> 00:06:42.781
Draw the hands 
together at the heart.

00:06:42.781 --> 00:06:44.581
Inhale in exhale, let it go.

00:06:44.581 --> 00:06:46.462
(exhales heavily)

00:06:46.462 --> 00:06:48.549
Fingertips come to the ground.

00:06:48.549 --> 00:06:50.178
I'm so zoned out.

00:06:50.178 --> 00:06:52.275
Fingertips come to the ground

00:06:52.275 --> 00:06:54.532
and we're gonna walk it forward.

00:06:54.532 --> 00:06:55.936
Forearms might 
come to the ground,

00:06:55.936 --> 00:06:59.005
otherwise just nice 
strong hands here.

00:06:59.005 --> 00:07:01.091
Maybe relax the 
weight of the head down,

00:07:01.091 --> 00:07:02.298
everyone will be a 
little different here.

00:07:02.298 --> 00:07:04.431
Maybe you find a little sway.

00:07:04.431 --> 00:07:06.530
Send awareness 
to your right hip.

00:07:06.530 --> 00:07:08.944
Try to keep your tailbone, 
your coccyx,

00:07:08.944 --> 00:07:10.574
on your pillow or 
down on the ground,

00:07:10.574 --> 00:07:12.074
so not rolling up.

00:07:13.398 --> 00:07:14.720
(inhaling)

00:07:14.720 --> 00:07:17.420
(exhaling)

00:07:17.420 --> 00:07:20.253
Relax the weight 
of the head over.

00:07:22.235 --> 00:07:26.402
Keep going with this beautiful
long, smooth, even breathing.

00:07:33.034 --> 00:07:35.065
Alright, then walk 
the right hand

00:07:35.065 --> 00:07:37.678
or the right elbow 
to the center.

00:07:37.678 --> 00:07:40.864
And on a big inhale, open
up through your left arm.

00:07:40.864 --> 00:07:42.853
It doesn't have to come
all the way up to the sky.

00:07:42.853 --> 00:07:44.195
If it feels good 
to do that, great,

00:07:44.195 --> 00:07:45.507
but it can just open up here,

00:07:45.507 --> 00:07:48.421
opening the chest 
and pressing into

00:07:48.421 --> 00:07:49.973
your right hand or 
the right forearm.

00:07:49.973 --> 00:07:51.723
You can also be here.

00:07:52.818 --> 00:07:56.456
Big breath in, expand, 
find expansion

00:07:56.456 --> 00:07:59.560
and then exhale, left
hand replaces the right,

00:07:59.560 --> 00:08:01.917
maybe you do the form variation,

00:08:01.917 --> 00:08:03.084
and we inhale.

00:08:04.076 --> 00:08:06.479
Find expansion, breathe deep.

00:08:06.479 --> 00:08:08.097
Open through the 
throat chakra here,

00:08:08.097 --> 00:08:09.668
lengthen through 
the crown of the head.

00:08:09.668 --> 00:08:11.001
One more breath.

00:08:12.132 --> 00:08:13.322
And then release,

00:08:13.322 --> 00:08:16.525
use your fingertips to press
you all the way back up,

00:08:16.525 --> 00:08:17.957
and then we'll switch the legs here.

00:08:17.957 --> 00:08:19.874
So right heel comes in,

00:08:22.257 --> 00:08:25.648
palms go together, 
deep breath in.

00:08:25.648 --> 00:08:26.481
Exhale.

00:08:28.240 --> 00:08:29.277
Find what feels good.

00:08:29.277 --> 00:08:32.076
Fingertips down, 
walking em out.

00:08:32.076 --> 00:08:35.731
Keep awareness of the coccyx,
the tail, dropping down.

00:08:35.731 --> 00:08:37.299
This'll look a little
different for everyone.

00:08:37.299 --> 00:08:38.799
Maybe you're here.

00:08:40.484 --> 00:08:41.984
Maybe you're here.

00:08:42.960 --> 00:08:45.840
Maybe you find a little sway.

00:08:45.840 --> 00:08:47.452
Again, find what 
feels good here.

00:08:47.452 --> 00:08:49.473
Send awareness to your left hip.

00:08:49.473 --> 00:08:53.072
(inhales and exhales)

00:08:53.072 --> 00:08:55.990
Nice, smooth, even breathing.

00:08:55.990 --> 00:08:59.157
(inhales and exhales)

00:09:02.616 --> 00:09:06.053
Relax the weight 
of the head down.

00:09:06.053 --> 00:09:08.455
(inhales)

00:09:08.455 --> 00:09:10.812
(exhales)

00:09:10.812 --> 00:09:13.020
Chilling it out, okay.

00:09:13.020 --> 00:09:14.638
Now, starting with the 
left arm this time,

00:09:14.638 --> 00:09:16.755
left hand or left elbow
to the center line.

00:09:16.755 --> 00:09:19.149
We inhale over 
through the right wing.

00:09:19.149 --> 00:09:20.995
Big breaths here.

00:09:20.995 --> 00:09:22.995
You can be here or here.

00:09:25.313 --> 00:09:26.890
(exhales)

00:09:26.890 --> 00:09:29.258
Tops of the thighs 
grounding down here,

00:09:29.258 --> 00:09:32.236
take one more breath, 
find expansion.

00:09:32.236 --> 00:09:34.871
And then exhale, right
hand replaces the left,

00:09:34.871 --> 00:09:38.204
same thing, we open 
up through the left.

00:09:46.230 --> 00:09:48.229
Awesome work, 
release back to center.

00:09:48.229 --> 00:09:49.766
Press into the fingertips,

00:09:49.766 --> 00:09:51.899
come all the way back up.

00:09:51.899 --> 00:09:53.949
We'll send the legs out long.

00:09:53.949 --> 00:09:55.966
Doing awesome here, 
so keep, you know,

00:09:55.966 --> 00:09:58.702
keep breathing deep here,
stick with your breath,

00:09:58.702 --> 00:10:01.318
sending the legs out super wide.

00:10:01.318 --> 00:10:05.653
Doesn't have to be super,
like, Olympic gold splits here,

00:10:05.653 --> 00:10:08.632
just creating a little bit of space.

00:10:08.632 --> 00:10:11.369
You should feel pretty stable
in the base of the spine

00:10:11.369 --> 00:10:12.319
so if you need to lift up

00:10:12.319 --> 00:10:15.551
on something a little taller, 
please do.

00:10:15.551 --> 00:10:17.848
Tops of the thighs 
grounding down here.

00:10:17.848 --> 00:10:19.186
(exhales)

00:10:19.186 --> 00:10:22.820
Fingertips come to the
mat, we walk it forward.

00:10:22.820 --> 00:10:25.729
So the same thing, you
might just stay here,

00:10:25.729 --> 00:10:28.345
eventually drawing the
chin to the chest (exhales)

00:10:28.345 --> 00:10:32.339
or you might come all the
way down into the floor.

00:10:32.339 --> 00:10:34.409
(inhales)

00:10:34.409 --> 00:10:36.731
(exhales)

00:10:36.731 --> 00:10:39.155
Nice, even, smooth pranayama.

00:10:39.155 --> 00:10:42.487
Remember your alternate
nostril breathing here.

00:10:42.487 --> 00:10:46.654
Take away any stress, tension,
in the neck, the shoulders.

00:10:48.714 --> 00:10:50.079
Active in the feet 
here so you can

00:10:50.079 --> 00:10:52.915
point the toes if it 
feels good or flex.

00:10:52.915 --> 00:10:56.082
(inhales and exhales)

00:10:57.318 --> 00:10:58.187
Alright, then check it out.

00:10:58.187 --> 00:11:01.194
I'm gonna press 
up into the palms.

00:11:01.194 --> 00:11:02.472
Little thread the needle here.

00:11:02.472 --> 00:11:04.605
So right fingertips 
are gonna reach in

00:11:04.605 --> 00:11:06.729
and underneath the 
bridge of the left arm.

00:11:06.729 --> 00:11:08.567
You're not gonna go all
the way to the ground,

00:11:08.567 --> 00:11:10.320
just a gentle twist here,

00:11:10.320 --> 00:11:14.070
keeping that expansion
just like we did here.

00:11:15.110 --> 00:11:17.162
Big breath in, (inhales)

00:11:17.162 --> 00:11:19.152
exhale to release. (exhales)

00:11:19.152 --> 00:11:20.862
Right palm to the earth,
thread the needle.

00:11:20.862 --> 00:11:23.482
Left fingertips in 
and underneath

00:11:23.482 --> 00:11:25.839
the bridge of the right arm.

00:11:25.839 --> 00:11:27.608
I'm relaxing, it's working.

00:11:27.608 --> 00:11:29.113
Inhale.

00:11:29.113 --> 00:11:32.135
Find expansion. 
(exhales)

00:11:32.135 --> 00:11:35.625
Use an exhale to bring you back.

00:11:35.625 --> 00:11:37.805
Cool, draw the left heel in.

00:11:37.805 --> 00:11:41.435
Turn your waistline so
that you're pointed,

00:11:41.435 --> 00:11:45.143
you're headed 
toward your right foot.

00:11:45.143 --> 00:11:47.148
So there's a shift.

00:11:47.148 --> 00:11:50.776
Then inhale, reach all the
way up, find the length.

00:11:50.776 --> 00:11:53.943
And think up and over 
as you bow down.

00:11:55.645 --> 00:11:58.895
Head-to-knee pose here, 
janu sirsasana,

00:11:59.997 --> 00:12:01.386
so the goal is eventually to get

00:12:01.386 --> 00:12:04.413
that nose to the knee,
the head to the knee,

00:12:04.413 --> 00:12:06.246
but maybe you're here.

00:12:07.157 --> 00:12:08.677
Right?

00:12:08.677 --> 00:12:10.177
Maybe you're here.

00:12:12.574 --> 00:12:14.950
Wherever you are, draw
the chin into the chest,

00:12:14.950 --> 00:12:17.702
take a moment to surrender,
breathe deep.

00:12:17.702 --> 00:12:21.239
(inhales and exhales)

00:12:21.239 --> 00:12:25.322
Send breath to the lower
back body and awareness.

00:12:28.859 --> 00:12:30.677
Great, and then draw 
the chin to the chest

00:12:30.677 --> 00:12:33.343
as you slowly roll it up.

00:12:33.343 --> 00:12:35.482
I can barely talk, it's working.

00:12:35.482 --> 00:12:37.284
Setting the left leg out.

00:12:37.284 --> 00:12:39.034
Draw the right heel in,
we're almost done here,

00:12:39.034 --> 00:12:41.162
you guys doing awesome.

00:12:41.162 --> 00:12:43.024
Really commit to your breath.

00:12:43.024 --> 00:12:45.591
Take the hip so that we're
pointed toward that left heel.

00:12:45.591 --> 00:12:47.912
When you're ready,
soft and easy breezy,

00:12:47.912 --> 00:12:49.162
reaching it out.

00:12:49.162 --> 00:12:50.478
(inhales)

00:12:50.478 --> 00:12:52.223
And then you're taking it forward.

00:12:52.223 --> 00:12:54.390
(exhales)

00:12:56.871 --> 00:12:59.704
Close your eyes, listen to your breath.

00:12:59.704 --> 00:13:01.564
(inhales)

00:13:01.564 --> 00:13:03.731
(exhales)

00:13:05.197 --> 00:13:07.364
(inhales)

00:13:09.245 --> 00:13:11.412
(exhales)

00:13:13.074 --> 00:13:15.476
Great, inhale in. (inhales)

00:13:15.476 --> 00:13:18.964
Now you're just 
gonna exhale to release.

00:13:18.964 --> 00:13:20.559
Awesome work.

00:13:20.559 --> 00:13:22.034
We're just gonna bring the feet in

00:13:22.034 --> 00:13:26.370
so that we can shift now
to be flat on our back.

00:13:26.370 --> 00:13:29.117
You can use the pillow
as a pillow for our head.

00:13:29.117 --> 00:13:30.816
Imagine that.

00:13:30.816 --> 00:13:32.836
And we're just 
gonna get comfy here,

00:13:32.836 --> 00:13:36.419
feeling our spine
supported here to finish.

00:13:37.412 --> 00:13:39.457
When you get there, hug
the knees into the chest.

00:13:39.457 --> 00:13:42.571
Fix your pillow so it feels good.

00:13:42.571 --> 00:13:45.369
And then give yourself
a great big bear hug.

00:13:45.369 --> 00:13:48.376
Walk the shoulder blades down.

00:13:48.376 --> 00:13:52.002
Should feel good, 
little massage, perhaps.

00:13:52.002 --> 00:13:55.290
(inhales and sighs)

00:13:55.290 --> 00:13:59.014
And then close your 
eyes and imagine,

00:13:59.014 --> 00:14:03.728
imagine your yoga mat rising
up to meet your back body.

00:14:03.728 --> 00:14:04.761
So often, we talk about,

00:14:04.761 --> 00:14:06.139
ugh, just spilling all the weight

00:14:06.139 --> 00:14:07.407
of our body into our yoga mat.

00:14:07.407 --> 00:14:09.775
Which is great, 
but just close your eyes

00:14:09.775 --> 00:14:12.957
and imagine your mat rising
up to meet your back body.

00:14:12.957 --> 00:14:14.624
Feel supported here.

00:14:17.738 --> 00:14:19.808
Trust that all is well,

00:14:19.808 --> 00:14:23.083
and that, especially
with the tools of yoga,

00:14:23.083 --> 00:14:24.607
you have the power

00:14:24.607 --> 00:14:27.593
with your mind and your
body and your breath

00:14:27.593 --> 00:14:31.093
working together 
consciously and lovingly,

00:14:32.804 --> 00:14:34.221
kindly, intently.

00:14:35.307 --> 00:14:39.177
You have the power to
transform any negativity

00:14:39.177 --> 00:14:40.427
or anxiousness,

00:14:42.509 --> 00:14:44.592
bad juju, nervous energy.

00:14:49.508 --> 00:14:52.090
You have the tools and
the power to transform it

00:14:52.090 --> 00:14:54.507
to something that feels good.

00:14:57.082 --> 00:14:59.198
Even if it's just 
a moment of peace,

00:14:59.198 --> 00:15:01.002
let's be real, right?

00:15:01.002 --> 00:15:03.680
Slowly release the feet
down to the ground,

00:15:03.680 --> 00:15:06.978
we'll open the knees wide
so the feet come together.

00:15:06.978 --> 00:15:08.811
Have your pillow here.

00:15:10.929 --> 00:15:12.566
And then we're just 
gonna let the hands

00:15:12.566 --> 00:15:14.670
rest gently on the fronts
of the hip creases here,

00:15:14.670 --> 00:15:16.087
should feel nice.

00:15:19.188 --> 00:15:22.688
Breathing deep. 
(exhales)

00:15:23.983 --> 00:15:27.566
Close your eyes. 
(inhales)

00:15:29.079 --> 00:15:31.826
(exhales)

00:15:31.826 --> 00:15:33.897
And then, one leg at a time,

00:15:33.897 --> 00:15:36.158
slowly drawing the toes down,

00:15:36.158 --> 00:15:38.908
extending long 
through both legs.

00:15:40.145 --> 00:15:43.026
And then, lastly,
opening the fingertips.

00:15:43.026 --> 00:15:46.157
Palms, arms, out to the sides.

00:15:46.157 --> 00:15:48.114
Feeling an opening 
through the chest,

00:15:48.114 --> 00:15:50.084
a softness in the belly,

00:15:50.084 --> 00:15:53.917
and the legs heavy. 
(exhales)

00:15:56.508 --> 00:16:00.983
Take a second to scan
the body and give thanks,

00:16:00.983 --> 00:16:02.855
a moment of gratitude for you

00:16:02.855 --> 00:16:05.772
for taking this time
to tend to it.

00:16:07.894 --> 00:16:10.089
The hardest part is just
showing up for yourself,

00:16:10.089 --> 00:16:11.663
and you did.

00:16:11.663 --> 00:16:13.080
So, awesome work.

00:16:14.107 --> 00:16:16.857
Stay here as long 
as time allows.

00:16:17.937 --> 00:16:19.187
Trust the flow.

00:16:20.631 --> 00:16:21.464
Namaste.

00:16:21.464 --> 00:16:24.881
(mellow acoustic music)
