Warm Up Your Body with Yoga

5 min is all you need to get the body warm!

 

Why use yoga to warm up your body?

To wake up your muscles & fascia for better function and to connect with your breathing.
👉Use this as a stand alone practice OR use it before another type of workout!

Constant movement, like in this practice, creates warmth by moving the energy around the body. This wakes up parts that were stagnant and relieves tension from areas that were over stimulated—in other words, it creates energy balance.

As you move through the warm up, your heart rate will slightly increase and the breath will get faster which may feel challenging as it quickens.
It’s okay — when you are warmed up, the breath, although at a faster pace, feels less labored.

NOTE: Feeling ‘out of breath’ means you may be pushing too hard.

Intense stretches are avoided in this warm up as those types of stretches tend to come after warming up; so when we do stretch, move mindfully and stay shallow in the stretch.

Afterward you can easily move directly onto a cardio workout, another yoga practice, weight lifting, or any other physical activity that requires warming up!

Repetition for Depth

Explore the depth of repetition in 37 min…

Repetition allows us to discover more depth in our practice.
The depth is not just physical;
it’s also about deepening the understanding of the breath/body connection;once you know what comes next physically, the mind can settle into the rhythm of breath to create a “zen”, calm sensation.

A good soundtrack doesn’t hurt either.

The original Inversion Free Video that started it all…
Hanumanasana Flow

Welcome to this stretchy practice without any inversions in 37 minutes.

Throughout the practice the head will stay above the heart with the target areas being the hips, legs, back and side body to prepare for Full Monkey pose, Hanumanasana, aka full split.

We’ll start with a little breath work, warm up, and get stretchin’.
⚠️ For those of you with eye pressure issues, follow the pattern of the breath without the use of the hand; avoid blocking the nostrils as this may increase your IOP.

Come back to this practice often to see how your boundaries change over time.
