Read the notes if you time. Good pre-mat prep!
Yoga with Adriene – Day 19 – (21 mins)
Mediation with Portia – Day 19 – Finding Peace (6 mins)
Notes from Adriene:
On Day 19 we take it a little easy and seek yet another flavor.
Relish today.
The aim is to coordinate with your breath
This practice is meditative and relaxing – though not your typical restorative practice. It will set us up for an awesome feeling tomorrow as we build on the mini Vinyasas within this practice. The mental and physical benefits of committing to a Vinyasa practice are HUGE. But a Vinyasa practice doesn’t have to be a fast and flowing yoga for weight loss practice. The term Vinyasa has many meanings. The literal translation is “to place in a special way.” Consider this as you challenge yourself to truly let your breath fuel your movement. Or at least try. It is a practice. Use this Breath and Body practice to relieve tired muscles and calm the mind. Day 19 invites you to slow down, to synchronize body, and movement with the breath. Deepen your practice with pranayama. Marry your pranayama practice, or breathing practice, with your asana practice. As we focus on the breath we invite fresh oxygen to the blood and to the brain. We connect to prana (or energy) and use the breath to control that vital force – so you can cultivate your magical powers and live your full potential! Let your breath sing! Let your body talk. Listen, relax, and enjoy! You deserve it. Yours, Adriene |
