Part 3/7:
The practice continues with exercises that deepen the breath. As participants rub their palms together, they are led into a transition to all fours, initiating the first movement: Downward Facing Dog. Here, Adriene introduces a fluidity in the posture, encouraging movement and exploration through gentle bending of the knees and shifting weight from side to side. This approach not only stretches the body but also engages the mind by encouraging awareness and presence in the moment.
Dynamic Flow and Stretching
Following the initial stretches, the routine incorporates a series of movements that challenge stability while fostering strength. The transition from Downward Facing Dog to Forward Fold introduces a grounding aspect as the weight of the head hangs and participants roll up slowly.
