10min Yoga: Relaxation for Beginners

Let’s do a little yoga together. I step away feom the songwriting, music videos and complicated novel writing to lay on the grass in the sunshine and breathe. Join me for a moment of relaxation and connection. It doesn’t take much to feel just a little better. Taking a break to move your body like this can massively boost your mental clarity and replenish your creativity. It can also soothe your nervous system so you become a sweeter version of yourself…which everyone appreciates. Hehe thanks for being here with me on my channel! I hope you enjoy a beautiful moment in your body and love the rest of your day! Introduction: Welcome, everyone! Let's start by finding a comfortable spot and getting our yoga mats ready. The surface might not be perfectly even, but it’s fine for a gentle yoga session. Take a moment to settle in and get comfortable. 00:01:33. -- Toe Stretches and Child's Pose We'll begin with some toe stretches. Tuck your toes under and shift your weight back onto them. Feel the stretch in your toes. Next, we'll move into a child's pose. You can either stay in a traditional child's pose or try a 'melting heart' pose with your hips raised. Find what feels best for you. 00:02:41 -- Cobra Poses and Back Strengthening Let's transition into cobra poses. We'll do various cobra pose variations, including high cobra and low cobra. Move between the two poses with your breath. Then, we'll do a back-strengthening exercise by reaching our arms forward and pulling them back while lying on our stomachs. Feel the strength in your back. 00:06:51 -- Seated Twists and Breathing Exercises Now, let's move into a seated position for some gentle twists. Alternate between looking up towards the sky and down towards the earth. Follow this with some breathing exercises, including arm circles, wrist circles, and deep sighs. Let your breath guide you. 00:10:25 -- Closing and Gratitude As we wrap up, bring your hands together and think of something you're grateful for. We'll finish with a brief meditation, touching our thumbs to our foreheads and saying 'Namaste.' Remember, even a short yoga session can have incredible results.
