I'm Jessi Serafian. So today is all about sun salutation.

 

4

00:00:23,289 --> 00:00:27,594

So sun salutations are a great rhythmic flow that connects our

00:00:27,594 --> 00:00:29,362

movement with our breath.

 

6

00:00:29,362 --> 00:00:33,500

It helps generate heat in our body, helps ground our practise.

00:00:33,500 --> 00:00:37,070

So we're gonna be flowing for the entire class.

 

8

00:00:37,070 --> 00:00:41,307

00:00:46,279 --> 00:00:50,750

We'll just ground down here, settle in our space.

 

11

00:00:51,918 --> 00:00:55,221

00:11:01,460 --> 00:11:02,461

Exhale, fold.

 

167

00:11:03,829 --> 00:11:06,032

Bend the knees. Inhale, chair pose.

 

168

00:11:07,066 --> 00:11:09,502

Sink low and hold, one.

 

169

00:11:11,871 --> 00:11:12,838

Two.

 

170

00:11:14,774 --> 00:11:15,775

Three.

 

171

00:11:19,145 --> 00:11:22,381

Four and five, straighten your legs, fold forward.

 

172

00:11:23,849 --> 00:11:25,084

Inhale, come up halfway.

 

173

00:11:26,485 --> 00:11:31,590

Exhale, bend your knees deeply, hands down, step back with your left foot.

 

174

00:11:31,590 --> 00:11:34,493

High lunge with that right foot forward, inhale, rise up.

 

175

00:11:36,862 --> 00:11:37,963

Exhale, Warrior II.

 

176

00:11:41,133 --> 00:11:45,538

Inhale, reverse, exhale,

 

177

00:11:45,538 --> 00:11:49,675

release, stepping back, flowing through your vinyasa.

 

178

00:11:54,947 --> 00:11:57,950

Meeting back and downward facing dog, find your breath.

 

179

00:12:02,421 --> 00:12:07,026

Lift your heels up high, look forward, step or hop, chop at the mat,

 

180

00:12:07,026 --> 00:12:10,329

inhale, come up halfway, exhale fold,

 

181

00:12:12,131 --> 00:12:16,435

bend the knees, chair pose, five breaths,

 

182

00:12:16,435 --> 00:12:20,005

one, two,

 

183

00:12:21,173 --> 00:12:22,641

three.

 

184

00:12:25,644 --> 00:12:28,481

Four and five, straighten your legs, fold.

 

185

00:12:30,349 --> 00:12:31,684

Inhale, come up halfway.

 

186

00:12:32,918 --> 00:12:37,690

Exhale, bend your knees, hands down, step back with your right foot.

 

187

00:12:37,690 --> 00:12:40,893

Lunge on that left side, inhale, rise up.

 

188

00:12:42,094 --> 00:12:43,262

Exhale, warrior two.

 

189

00:12:45,931 --> 00:12:50,269

Inhale, reverse, exhale, release,

 

190

00:12:50,269 --> 00:12:53,639

hands down, stepping back, flowing through.

 

191

00:12:54,640 --> 00:12:56,008

Coming down if you need to.

 

192

00:12:59,145 --> 00:13:03,082

Downward facing dog, meeting here.

 

193

00:13:06,352 --> 00:13:07,520

Notice your breath.

 

194

00:13:10,523 --> 00:13:14,760

Even out your inhales and your exhales and then altogether

 

195

00:13:14,760 --> 00:13:17,196

let's drop our knees.

 

196

00:13:17,196 --> 00:13:21,200

Come into child's pose, big toes together, knees wide.

 

197

00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:25,271

This time you're going to bring your arms alongside your body and soften

 

198

00:13:25,271 --> 00:13:26,272

the head.

 

199

00:13:28,374 --> 00:13:32,478

Gently rock from side to side, some massaging here into your

 

200

00:13:32,478 --> 00:13:33,479

low back.

 

201

00:14:07,847 --> 00:14:11,550

From here, reaching your arms straight out in front of you.

 

202

00:14:11,550 --> 00:14:13,886

You're gonna come up onto all fours.

 

203

00:14:15,254 --> 00:14:17,556

Bring your knees so they're closer together.

 

204

00:14:17,556 --> 00:14:20,192

You're going to shift your weight to your left hand.

 

205

00:14:20,192 --> 00:14:22,761

Inhale, reach your right arm up.

 

206

00:14:22,761 --> 00:14:26,699

And then as you exhale, swing your right arm under your left,

 

207

00:14:26,699 --> 00:14:30,169

palm facing up, coming down onto your right shoulder.

 

208

00:14:52,458 --> 00:14:56,996

With that left hand, slowly come up, switching sides.

 

209

00:14:58,797 --> 00:15:01,400

Left arm rises, inhale.

 

210

00:15:01,400 --> 00:15:04,970

And exhale, swinging your left arm under your right.

 

211

00:15:04,970 --> 00:15:08,440

Palm facing up, coming down onto that left shoulder.

 

212

00:15:33,899 --> 00:15:38,570

And slowly pushing back up.

 

213

00:15:38,570 --> 00:15:42,608

You're going to make your way onto your back.

 

214

00:15:42,641 --> 00:15:43,609

Knees are bent.

 

215

00:15:47,346 --> 00:15:51,283

Feet are hip width apart, toes are pointing forward.

 

216

00:15:51,283 --> 00:15:54,586

Bring your hands by your side, push into the soles of your feet and you're

 

217

00:15:54,586 --> 00:15:58,757

gonna just lift your hips up, coming into a bridge pose, knees

 

218

00:15:58,757 --> 00:16:02,861

drawing away from you, chin away from your chest, lifting

 

219

00:16:02,861 --> 00:16:06,865

up. And then as you exhale, slowly lower

 

220

00:16:06,865 --> 00:16:07,866

down.

 

221

00:16:08,968 --> 00:16:11,303

We'll do that four more times.

 

222

00:16:11,303 --> 00:16:12,938

Inhale, come up into bridge.

 

223

00:16:16,241 --> 00:16:17,209

Exhale lower.

 

224

00:16:20,412 --> 00:16:23,015

And nice and slow, inhaling up.

 

225

00:16:26,719 --> 00:16:27,720

Exhale down.

 

226

00:16:32,624 --> 00:16:33,625

Inhale up.

 

227

00:16:37,262 --> 00:16:39,365

And exhale down.

 

228

00:16:39,365 --> 00:16:41,333

This time we're gonna add the arms.

 

229

00:16:41,333 --> 00:16:44,203

So as you inhale, you're gonna lift the hips.

 

230

00:16:44,203 --> 00:16:47,506

At the same time, reach the arms up and over your head.

 

231

00:16:48,707 --> 00:16:52,644

And then exhale, hips come down, arms

 

232

00:16:52,644 --> 00:16:53,645

by your side.

 

233

00:16:55,614 --> 00:16:57,049

Two more like that, inhale.

 

234

00:17:01,620 --> 00:17:02,621

And exhale lower.

 

235

00:17:05,257 --> 00:17:09,328

One more time, inhale, lift the hips, reach your arms up and

 

236

00:17:09,328 --> 00:17:10,329

over your head.

 

237

00:17:12,164 --> 00:17:16,135

And exhale, lower down,

 

238

00:17:16,135 --> 00:17:18,370

arms by your side.

 

239

00:17:18,370 --> 00:17:22,341

From here, hug your knees into your chest, rock

 

240

00:17:22,341 --> 00:17:23,409

side to side.

 

241

00:17:26,145 --> 00:17:30,149

Hug that left knee in, extend your right leg all the way down onto the

 

242

00:17:30,149 --> 00:17:31,150

floor.

 

243

00:17:31,850 --> 00:17:35,888

Take a deep breath in and exhale, pull

 

244

00:17:35,888 --> 00:17:37,156

that left me in closer.

 

245

00:17:39,124 --> 00:17:43,128

Right hand on your left knee, left arm out to the side, come into a gentle

 

246

00:17:43,128 --> 00:17:46,498

twist, bringing that left over towards the right.

 

247

00:17:48,067 --> 00:17:49,768

Soften your left shoulder down.

 

248

00:18:02,948 --> 00:18:07,052

And then coming back up to centre, switching legs.

 

249

00:18:09,321 --> 00:18:13,826

Left leg down, right knee in, inhale and

 

250

00:18:13,826 --> 00:18:14,827

exhale, pull it in.

 

251

00:18:17,963 --> 00:18:21,934

Left hand on your knee, right arm out to the side, bringing

 

252

00:18:21,934 --> 00:18:24,336

that right knee over towards the left,

 

253

00:18:26,371 --> 00:18:27,606

softening your right shoulder.

 

254

00:18:51,029 --> 00:18:55,300

And then coming back up to centre, extending

 

255

00:18:55,300 --> 00:19:00,405

both legs out onto the mat, separating your feet wide,

 

256

00:19:00,405 --> 00:19:04,543

arms alongside your body, palms facing up, coming into

 

257

00:19:04,543 --> 00:19:06,879

final relaxation, Shavasana.

 

258

00:19:10,949 --> 00:19:15,020

Melting down into the mat, soften

 

259

00:19:15,020 --> 00:19:17,823

from the crown of the head all the way down to your feet.

 

260

00:19:23,328 --> 00:19:24,763

Slowing down the breath.

 

261

00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:29,368

So staying lying down.

 

262

00:19:31,803 --> 00:19:35,774

I'll read today's meditation by Melody Beattie's Journey to

 

263

00:19:35,774 --> 00:19:36,775

the Heart.

 

264

00:19:38,110 --> 00:19:39,111

Practise forgiveness.

 

265

00:19:40,345 --> 00:19:44,183

Is there someone we're judging, censoring?

 

266

00:19:44,183 --> 00:19:48,720

If we look more closely, we'll see that when we blame others, we're chastising

 

267

00:19:48,720 --> 00:19:50,789

ourselves as well.

 

268

00:19:50,789 --> 00:19:54,960

If we're honest, really honest, we can see that often what upsets us

 

269

00:19:54,960 --> 00:19:58,530

is something similar to what we ourselves do.

 

270

00:19:58,530 --> 00:20:01,033

Other people can be mirrors of our own behaviour.

 

271

00:20:02,301 --> 00:20:06,738

Yes, there are times when another person does something absolutely outrageous

 

272

00:20:06,738 --> 00:20:11,143

and we can stand there, hands on hips saying, I've been wrong.

 

273

00:20:11,143 --> 00:20:14,980

I can't understand how anyone could behave that way.

 

274

00:20:14,980 --> 00:20:18,951

But often, if we're honest, we really can understand we have behaved

 

275

00:20:18,951 --> 00:20:20,052

that way too.

 

276

00:20:21,453 --> 00:20:25,657

Practise forgiveness, judgement without forgiveness causes us

 

277

00:20:25,657 --> 00:20:29,595

to feel isolated, separate and apart, causes us judge

 

278

00:20:29,595 --> 00:20:30,996

ourselves in the same way.

 

279

00:20:32,364 --> 00:20:35,867

Discover how much better you feel when you forgive others.

 

280

00:20:35,867 --> 00:20:38,704

Find out how much you feel better when you forgive yourself.

 

281

00:20:41,506 --> 00:20:43,041

So just take a moment here.

 

282

00:20:45,377 --> 00:20:48,013

To bring your attention back into the space.

 

283

00:20:53,619 --> 00:20:55,921

Move all your fingers, your toes.

 

284

00:20:57,089 --> 00:20:59,358

Bring small movements back into the body.

 

285

00:21:00,459 --> 00:21:04,963

Bring your legs together. Reach your arms up and over your head.

 

286

00:21:04,963 --> 00:21:08,333

Take a deep stretch out through your fingers out through you toes.

 

287

00:21:08,333 --> 00:21:11,069

Get nice and long. Take a big breath in.

 

288

00:21:12,104 --> 00:21:14,673

Open the mouth, let it go.

 

289

00:21:14,673 --> 00:21:16,975

Bend your knees. Place your feet on the mat.

 

290

00:21:16,975 --> 00:21:19,578

Gently roll over onto your right side.

 

291

00:21:19,578 --> 00:21:20,579

Staying here for a moment.

 

292

00:21:22,814 --> 00:21:26,752

And then slowly pushing yourself up, coming into

 

293

00:21:26,752 --> 00:21:30,188

a comfortable seated position at the top of your mat.

 

294

00:21:32,357 --> 00:21:36,161

Palms together in front of your heart, sitting up tall.

 

295

00:21:38,530 --> 00:21:42,534

Taking this opportunity to thank your body for the work that you did today.

 

296

00:21:44,069 --> 00:21:46,438

Thank you for practising and sharing your energy.

 

297

00:21:47,472 --> 00:21:49,441

Have a wonderful day. Namaste.

 

298

00:21:50,442 --> 00:21:52,244

Thank you so much. See you next time.

 

299

00:21:52,244 --> 00:21:53,211
