YOGA SEQUENCE
The playlist I used for timing through this sequence is provided. I encourage you to use it. Sing! Let your body feel the frequency of your worship. As you practice this flow throughout the week your body will develop muscle memory so that you may not need to listen to the volume on the video for directives, or you may want to mute it to move more freely or remain longer in your favorite postures and use the video for visual cues. This is your practice, your worship. Be encouraged to move at your own pace and in your own way.
Spotify Playlist: Grim to Grace
Yoga Flow Videos:
To protect your joints, I am a big fan of rocking in and out of postures (or side to side) instead of holding a static pose. Move with the music.
As you explore your range of motion and alignment in each posture be mindful of joint pain (versus muscular stretching or discomfort) and back off any posture that causes pain or cramping. Find an accessible modification or alternative posture. We are all working towards greater mobility and are each in our own place in life, in the Spirit, and in our physical bodies. Do not measure your "success" by someone else's yardstick. Enjoy the journey, my friend!
