Hey, everyone.
Welcome to Yoga with Adrienne.
I am Adrienne and today I'm in the beautiful
park, getting dirty, getting sweaty because
you asked for it.
We have a detox sequence, right here, right
now for you.
Obviously, this flow is about rinsing, shedding
weight.
We have some beautiful water and waterfalls
around us today so the idea is to give the
body a good wash, the mind and the heart too,
cleanse, and sweat a little.
We're going to get hot.
It's getting hot in here so put on your yoga
clothes.
Okay, let's hop to it.
Begin in a cross-legged position.
We're going to check in with the breath and
the body here.
Commit to this practice.
Here we go.
Inhale, drawing the shoulders up toward the
ears.
On the exhale, melt them down.
Again, full breath as we loop the shoulders,
squeezing them up toward the ears, and on
an exhale, sliding the shoulder blades down.
One more.
We move with the breath.
Inhale and exhale, drawing the shoulders away
from the ears.
Draw the palms together at your heart, sternum
to thumbs.
Take a second here to just deepen the breath
and set an intention for your practice.
The intention can just be 'I choose to stick
with all of this video, no matter what' or
'I choose to find ease, to trust.'
Bow your head to your heart, interlace the
fingertips, and here we go.
Pressing the palms forward, we follow the
breath, reaching them up and back.
On the exhale, release, fingertips twinkle
down.
And again.
Mirroring the action to the breath, the breath
to the action, we reach it up.
Exhale, floating down and away, opening up
the shoulders.
Inhale, interlace, reach forward, up and back.
Tops of the thighs draw down, heart stays
lifted as we release.
Right palm to left knee, left fingertips behind.
We inhale, roll up the staircase of the spine.
Exhale, begin to journey into your twist.
Breathe.
Draw the navel in slightly.
Lengthen through the crown of the head.
Take a deep breath in.
On the exhale, release and take it to the
other side.
Left palm comes to the right knee here, right
fingertips behind.
Sit up nice and tall.
Remember, head over heart, heart over pelvis
here.
As we roll up through the spine, draw the
shoulder blades in together and down and use
that exhale to go a little bit deeper into
the twist.
Nice and gentle.
I lift my fingertips up here, as I encourage
you to do as well, to just make sure I'm not
muscling into my twist with my arms.
Always finding integrity with each breath,
with each posture.
Inhale in, side body stretch.
Left palm comes to the mat, right fingertips
reach up and over.
Stay rooted through your sit bones here.
Finding a little expression and switching
to the other side.
Reaching it up and over.

through the tops of the thighs, the sit bones.

you to do, coming to the knees, just for this
first one so we can find out alignment.
Long neck, lots of integrity in the body as
I slowly lower down, hugging my elbows to
the side body.
Lowering the mermaid tail there, lowering
the feet, we loop the shoulders and lift up.
Cobra, bhujangasana.

And then draw your navel up towards your spine,

slowly, slowly send it back.

Tops of the thighs spiral in and out towards
the back of your mat and we step the right

length in the lower back here as we squeeze

Planting the back foot this time, prepping
for Warrior I.
Reaching the fingertips up.
Strong foundation here.
The outer edge of that back foot is so strong.
Find your breath.
Then interlacing the fingertips behind the
tail, we'll loop the shoulders, open the chest,
and slowly flat back here as we melt down,
belly to the top of the thigh.
And then we can stay there or we can continue
going down into Humble Warrior here.
Breathe.

legs here as we breathe deep into the belly.
Pressing strong into your foundation, we rise
up.

On an exhale, bending the elbows left to right
and then releasing back down to the lunge.

together best as possible.
At least that's our intention.

We can stay here or we can release the left
fingertips to the ground, open up through
the right wing and then gently release back
to center.
Straighten the legs.
Inhale, lift a flat back.
Exhale, bow.
Bending the knees generously again, we bring
the palms together at the heart.
Really bend your knees.
Outer edge of the right elbow now to the outer
edge of that left leg.
We find length in the spine here as we move
into our twist.
You can take the right fist and put it into
the left palm to find space.
A little leverage there.
And then if you want to release right fingertips
to the mat, open up through the left wing
for one last breath.
We'll meet back at center.
Inhale, flat back position and exhale, forward
fold.
Walk the feet out wide, as wide as your mat.
Grab your elbows.
Rock a little side-to-side.
Knees can be bent here.
Bend your knees if you need to, as generously
as you like.
Then we'll walk the fingertips out and slowly
lower into a squat.
If the heels come up, no problem.
Embrace that.
Enjoy the yoga for the feet moment.
If the feet can stay flat, then we'll draw
the palms together at the heart.
Fingertips can also stay on the earth here
as we breathe in and out.
Pressing the elbows into the knees, pressing
the knees into the elbows, finding that squeeze
as we open the chest.
Gently releasing.
Right palm in front of you, we'll open up
through the left wing on a deep breath in.
I'm waving to the camera here.
Hello.
Keep pressing strong into your feet, tailbone
lengthening down.
Follow your breath.
Left palm to the center line as we inhale.
Open up through the right side.
I decided to go ahead and wave to the water
here.
Why not?
Full-body experience as I track it back to
center.
Palms back together at the heart.
Now stay in the zone, follow your breath.
We're going to transition now to seated.
We can loop the shoulders here, draw the knees
up for three lion's breaths.
Inhale in through the nose and exhale through
the mouth completely.
Inhale in deeply through the nose.
Exhale, lion's breath, tongue out.
Cleansing breath here.
Inhale.
Exhale, lion's breath, tongue out.
Then slowly - I'm brushing off the ants here.
None of them bit me on this shoot but they
were all over my mat.
Right leg out, left leg in, we come into another
twist.
We can hook the right elbow around the left
knee or we can bring the outer edge of the
right elbow to the outer edge of that left
knee.
So you have two options there.
We find length in the spine.
Notice how my right foot is still bright,
pressing through that right heel, top of the
right thigh drawing down.
Inhale, I think up.
Exhale, I journey into the twist.
And then releasing into Paschimottanasana.
Nice forward fold here.
Just allow the hands to rest wherever they
do, on the ankles, on the shins.
If you can grab your feet, great, but if you
can't, who cares?
Just find a little release there on the lower
back and then bringing the right knee up,
making sure that left leg is bright.
Finding my twist on the other side.
Either cradling the knee with my elbow there
or finding a bind.
Notice pressing into the left heel.
Take a nice full breath in and on the exhale,
melt it back to center again.
Reach it up and over.
Forward fold.
And then slowly, we'll come to a little rock
and roll.
Rock forward, rock back, find a little momentum.
Massage the spine.
Don't take things so seriously here so if
you've been sweating like I certainly was,
begin to let it go.
Extend both legs out long and then come into
a Texas-T with the arms, and we're going to
rock a little back-and-forth.
Finding a little movement from left to right.
We can straighten the legs.
I'm smiling here.
It feels good on my lower back.
Breathing deep into the belly.
You can do anything else you like here before
you come into Shavasana.
Just finding a little self-expression, a little
natural movement as we come very organically
into our final and most precious posture,
Shavasana.
Take a deep breath in and on your exhale,
relax the weight of the body completely and
fully into the mat.
Great job, everybody.
Nice work.
Okey doke.
So that was our yoga for detox and yoga to
make you sweat.
You can do this several times a week.
If you like the video, favorite the video,
then you'll be able to return to it a little
more easily.
If you have any questions or comments about
any particular pose or transition, let me
know.
Let's talk about it.
Let's make sure that we connect on the things
that are either troubling you or confusing
you or causing you fussiness in the body.
We don't want that.
No pain, alright?
'No pain, no gain' is not something I subscribe
to here.
So find what feels good.
Let me know how it goes and we'll see you
next time.
Namaste.
