If you’re ready to stretch, strengthen and get moving this morning, join me for a hip-opening yoga flow with core work, shoulder opening and a steady connection to your breath. This 10-Minute Morning Yoga practice moves from Boat Pose into a flowing standing sequence to help you feel ready in here for whatever is out there.
We’ll revisit Malasana squats between rounds of warrior poses, peaceful warrior, extended side angle, Skandasana and a low revolved lunge. There’s room to explore bent or straight legs in Boat Pose, adjust the depth of your squat and choose your vinyasa. After moving, we’ll pause to notice the breath and reflect on where we give our energy and attention.
Yoga Oracle Card Pull
Today’s card is “Eternal Existence,” depicting Warrior Three. Its printed message reads: “The body is temporary, but the true self is everlasting.” I reflect on caring for our bodies as a way to support the deeper work of living—and noticing when something fleeting is receiving more of our worry than it deserves.
