Let go of the insecurities, the doubts, the fears, the things that make you feel like you're not enough. Like, you can't be weird. Like, you can't do things. Like, you can't create. They just get in the way.

Right hand might just come to the hip. Or left hand might even come to your right shin. Try to lengthen the heart forward and then maybe play around with lifting that right arm. K? And a block here is also a nice friend sometimes, but I like the shin. It just sort of gives a little more length in the torso, that option to twist the right ribs to the right.

Take another breath here. Good. And then release and just bow towards that right leg. And then from here, we're gonna take it back into that standing split, lift the back leg up, you're welcome to stay here, or we're gonna play with warrior 3.

Good. And then maybe pop it into a more traditional pyramid stance that back comes up a little bit. Right hand stays down. Left hand to hip. Maybe that's where you start, or maybe the right hand comes to the shin or a block. And the left arm, reach, is open. Stay with your breath.

Inhale for length. Exhale to twist. Good. And then slowly release. Pop it into a standing split and either stay there or warrior 3. Coming from the ground up, root through that left foot, engage your belly, reach through that back leg, prayer to the heart, or reach forward.

Now look down on your life and see the life you want to live. Maybe it's here now, maybe it's some future vision, one more breath, Good. Hold the heart space, prayer, feet together. Pause. Good. On your inhale, sweep your arms all the way up. As you exhale bow forward and fold, Take a halfway lift as you inhale and then make your way back to down dog however you'd like to get there.

Okay. From here, take your right leg back up into the air, inhale as you exhale step it forward. Okay. So pause here. Walk your fingers out in front of you. This is the adventure I was talking about. Well, lift your back leg up into the air here.

And then you can stay in standing split, or maybe you need to walk yourself back so your hands are on your mat. And then you're gonna lift maybe your right heel, push into your hands, strong straight arms, Look out in front of you just a little bit and just take a little hop towards a handstand. So playful, fun, light, freeing, creative, have fun, little hops. If you're working on trying to nail your handstand, Good luck. No. But seriously, maybe try to just tap your right foot towards your left leg. So your right knee stays bent and you're just trying to tap it.

And that's gonna turn on your deep core muscles. Okay? So do a couple more, little taps, strong straight arms, Oh, maybe you flip over. Have fun. I'll be honest. This is my nemesis pose, and I think that's why I love it so much. So do a couple more on that side.

Maybe say, wee. I love bringing the feet together. Take a halfway lift, inhale, back to down dog, exhale, however you wanna get there. Left leg rises up, inhale as you exhale step it forward. Sometimes one side's easier than the other, fingers out, back leg up, find your standing split, and either stay there, or with that left heel, let that left foot become a little spring.

Find your breath. So even in play and fun, we can always still stay connected to the breath. It's extremely helpful and then little hubs. Breathing, smiling. Last couple of tries here.

Don't worry about it being perfect. Don't worry about it getting it right. Just try. Forward full in front of the man. Let's just go ahead and sit down onto the mat.

And roll onto the back. Put one hand on your belly, one hand on your heart, and just feel your vibration feel that energy surge. Soak it in. Good. And then feet about hip distance, arms come alongside your body here. Inhale for bridge pose, lift the hips.

Maybe wiggle the arms towards each other. Interlace your fingers, press down through the arms, reach your tailbone towards that space between your knees, and reach your heart towards your chin. Smooth out your breath. Good. And then slowly release one vertebra at a time all the way down. Take a pause.

Coming back to that heart space. And, really, today, especially that quality of opening up, expanding your vibration. We'll do another backbend here. You're welcome to take bridge again. Or if you'd like to try out full wheel, put your hands Behind your shoulders, fingers point towards the shoulders, elbow squeeze together, and then push into the feet, lift the hips, maybe just come to the top of the head first and then push all the way up, offer the heart, back, reaching root through the feet, tailbone moves towards the space between the knees, free up the head, and receive and open.

And then slowly. Oh, or yourself all the way down and take another pause. Maybe again, bringing a hand to the belly and a hand to the heart. We are so capable of expansion Let me start to connect and clear and cleanse and remove and calm and then clarify to get to this place. You get to create the world you wanna live in.

Every moment, every day. But sometimes it's hard to feel that, so feel it. So if you have one more backbend in you, feel free to take it. Otherwise, maybe just bring the soles of the feet together, soupta baddha Kannasana, opening your hips for a few breaths. From here, we'll guide the knees towards the chest into happy baby. So you can grab the outer edges of your feet or your ankles.

Do a little rock side to side. Maybe even going backwards in time and feeling this child like innocence before you thought you knew everything. Right? Playful and curious. Maybe it becomes a very happy baby, hook the big toes, take one leg or both legs out to the side. But if that doesn't make you feel very happy, go back here.

Take another breath. Alright. Go ahead and hug your knees together and take your left leg all the way out long, and we'll twists, the right knee over, taking universal twists, the right arm out to the right, maybe the head turns to the right. I'm just removing here, again, letting something go. Any limiting beliefs Mary Ann Williamson says our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.

One more breath. Come back to center and release your right leg out, hug your left knee in. Cross it over. Take your left arm out to the left. She continues to say it is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous, actually, who are you not to be?

Two more breaths. And then bring your back to center, hug your knees into your chest, big inhale here, maybe squeezing into a tight little ball today. Squeeze your face. Hold your breath. And on the exhale, just let it all go.

Let your whole body just splay out into the earth. Taking up some space here for a really powerful Shavasana today. I'd like to guide you through a visualization. So just landing on your back. Receive the support of the Earth.

And I want you to start to visualize the inside of your body filled with lights. Illuminating every cell. Any color of light, but it's bright. It's so bright, and it is radiating. Inside your entire entire physical body.

And if you like, you can attach a name to this light, a word, a feeling, something you wanna grow, something you wanna manifest, something you wanna create. And then start to feel this light emanating out of your pours and starting to spread into the space around you. Bright light pouring out of the walls, if you're in a contained space outside touching the earth, touching nature, trees, and mountains, landscape, the rest of your city, the rest of your state, the rest of your country just keep pouring this light all the way out from the center of your being. Just keep visualizing it. Stretching and reaching and growing, touching everyone in the world, maybe it even gets to some other planets and moons, the entire universe.

From you. Expand. And harness your awareness back towards yourself back to the light inside of you. When you feel ready to start to gently Come back into your body. Little movements in the fingers and the toes.

Bend your knees and softly roll to one side into the fetal position. Just make a pillow with your bottom arm. And let this be a moment of rebirth back into your day, back into your life. What are you ready to create? What are you ready to focus on?

How are you gonna harness your potential? Your purpose. When you're ready to come up, use your hands, find a comfortable seat, prayer to the heart. Bowing your chin towards the light inside of you. When we uplift ourselves, we uplift everyone around this.

When we honor our potential and our purpose, We share it, and we let ourselves feel connected. There's a reason we're all here. Right? Each of us unique little snowflakes. Let's take one more easy inhale through the nose. And tie it out in the house.

Now go have an awesome day. Thanks.
