- Hi, everybody, my name is Rehl Clarke. Thank you so much for practicing with me today. Today, our flow is going to be focused on the Asana the word "Asana" specifically. If you aren't familiar with what that word is, it means "pose", and for a deeper meaning, it is also translated into the word "seat", when we are in a meditative state. When we are grounded and seated around the earth, we are able to connect to ourself and connect to a higher power better. So throughout the flow, I want you to really connect with your surroundings, be aware of your surroundings, and connect with that higher power above. So with that being said, let's get into it. Coming to a comfortable seated position, I am going to be in crisscross. If you want to be on your knees, that is absolutely fine as well. We're going to start in a hand mudra, the Jnana Mudra. Keeping our finger and our thumb together like so, and our three other fingers are going to be out. Our palms are facing up, and we're really just going to feel grounded here while we breathe. Inhale, lengthening our spine, broadening our shoulders, and exhaling through the mouth. I want you to tune in with where you feel your heart. If it's leaning forward, if it's falling back. And each inhale, I want you to imagine your spine and your back muscles are holding up your heart strong, your chest is out, and you're receiving all the light and love that you can. Throughout this flow, I really want you to feel grounded and connected with the earth, becoming one with the senses and surroundings that you are around. Feeling present in the moment, focusing on what you hear, what you feel. If your eyes are open, what you see. Two more deep breaths. Last inhale , and exhale . Inhale, bringing our arms up to the sky. We're going to exhale, placing our right hand to the side, kind of behind us and our left hand in front of us. And we're going to bend our elbows, falling forward. Inhale both arms up to the sky, and exhale, falling to the left side. Again, putting a slight bend into our elbows. Inhale arms up, and exhale. To the right one last time. Melting your heart a little bit deeper, really grounding your fingertips and your sits bones onto your mat. Inhale up and exhale, falling to the left. Inhale arms all the way up to the sky, and exhale, bringing your hands heart to center. Finding ourself into a tabletop position. We're going to do a couple big circles around our mat here. Putting weight into the back of our heels when we're coming to the back two corners of our mat, and pressing the weight into our fingertips as we come to the front. So as we're doing circles with our body, our palms are kind of having different parts have the most pressure on them as well. Couple more times. And finding stillness, we're going to gaze at our fingertips, curl our toes underneath us and push ourself into down dog. Walking out our dog here, pedaling our feet right to left and left to right. We're going to lift our right toes just barely above our mat and cross them over our left ankle. Just feeling a nice extra deep stretch into our left hamstring here. Putting weight into your left hand and your fingertips. We're going to release that, kind of shake it out, and hover your left toes, wrapping your left toes around your right ankle. Again, putting pressure into your right hand. Slowly releasing that and pedaling out. We're going to gaze at our fingertips and walk to the top of our map. We're going to inhale, swooping our arms all the way up to the sky, and exhale, bringing our hands heart to center. Inhale our arms all the way up. Exhale, forward fold. Inhale, halfway lift.

Planting both of our hands down on our mat, curling our right toes underneath us, coming up into a high plank. From here, we're going to drop down onto our knees, dropping our chest and our chin on our knees as well. Putting a bend into our elbows. Slowly pushing ourselves up into upward facing dog, and pushing our hips down and back into downward facing dog. Inhale, right leg comes high again. Exhale, stepping that forward. Inhale, arms come up. Exhale, placing our hands on either side of our foot, shooting our left leg up and down. Inhale, halfway lift. Exhale, forward fold.
