  • 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. Again, tagging a little bit of weight down

  • through the tops of the thighs, the sit bones. Breathe. Back to center.

  • Diving forward now, we'll come up to standing. Tadasana at the front of your mat. Palms together,

  • inhale, reach up. As we exhale, we dive forward. Soft knees here, my friends. Inhale, lift

  • a flat back position and exhale, soften and bow. Inhale, reach it up. Spread your fingertips,

  • full body experience. As we exhale, back down to the heart. Here we go again, jumping right

  • in. Inhale, reach it up. Exhale, dive forward, soft knees. Inhale, lift a flat back position,

  • long beautiful neck here, and exhale, bow.

  • Plant the palms and the fingertips. Step the right foot back. Runner's lunge. Peel that

  • left hip crease back. Shine your heart forward. Relax your jaw. Plant the palms and we step

  • it back. Downward-Facing Dog. Find a little bit of movement here. Begin to warm up the

  • body. Press into all ten knuckles, spread your fingertips wide.

  • Slowly, we'll shift forward to plank or I'm taking a half-plank here, which I encourage

  • 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.

  • Curl the toes under, press into your palms, lift up. Plank position. And then draw your

  • navel up towards your spine, press up and out of your palms, and then we'll slowly,

  • slowly send it back. Downward-Facing Dog. Tops of the thighs spiral in and out towards

  • the back of your mat and we step the right foot up. Runner's lunge. Peeling that right

  • hip crease back now, shining, radiating the heart forward. Open your heart up towards

  • the front. And then we step that back foot up to meet the front.

  • Forward fold, uttanasana. Let it hang. Inhale, flat back position. Exhale, bow. Spiral the

  • shoulders, reach it up. Deep breath in and exhale back down to the heart. Soft knees.

  • Inhale, we reach it up. Exhale, up and over as we bow. Inhale, flat back position and

  • exhale, bow.

  • Plant the palms, step the right foot back. High lunge prep here, squeezing the inner

  • thighs together, finding your foundation and then reaching it up on a nice, juicy inhale.

  • We can keep the hands on the waistline here for stability. Otherwise, we're spreading

  • the fingertips, reaching them up, pulling the thumbs slightly back. Lengthening down

  • through the tailbone, finding length in the lower back here as we squeeze the inner thighs

  • together, and then exhale, bend the elbows. Belly comes to the top of the thigh to release,

  • fingertips to the mat, and we step it back to plank. Nice, strong plank here, guys. Press

  • up and out of the earth. Squeeze those inner thighs together. Really, spike those heels

  • toward the back.

  • And when you're ready, shifting forward, bending the elbows, Chaturanga, we lift up. Upward-Facing

  • Dog. And then back, Downward-Facing Dog. Pedal the feet, work it out. Find what feels good

  • as we lift the right leg up. Runner's lunge. Squeezing the inner thighs together, finding

  • that strong foundation as we inhale.

  • Dog. Pedal it out.

  • Walk your toes into the center line and then we'll inhale, slide the right foot up. Take

  • a second here to turn your right toes toward the left side of the mat to drop that right

  • hip and then we'll step it up.

  • 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. Strong

  • foundation, lots of strength in the legs here as we breathe deep into the belly.

  • Pressing strong into your foundation, we rise up. Warrior I. On an exhale, bending the elbows

  • left to right and then releasing back down to the lunge. Planting the left palm next

  • to the arch of the right foot, go ahead and pivot on your back foot so you're on your

  • toes now, and we reach the right foot up towards the sky, moving into a nice twist here. Strong

  • legs still. Peeling the right hip crease back and not collapsing into that left palm. Find

  • the back, and then bowing forward. We can stay here halfway or continue the journey

  • down. Humble Warrior. Strong, active legs here. Breathe.

  • Pressing into the ball joint of that front big toe, we rise up strong. Warrior I. Spread

  • your fingertips and exhale, release. Open heart, bending the elbows left to right.

  • We come back to our lunge, pivoting on the back foot. Plant the right palm. Strong, full

  • breath as we inhale. Open up through the left wing. Find your twist. Breathe deep into the

  • belly here. Nice full breaths. Keep extension through the neck so don't let the right earlobe

  • drip down towards your right shoulder. Keep it nice and open and spacious.

  • And then on an exhale, we find our release and step the back foot up to meet the front.

  • Follow your breath. Uttanasana. And we inhale, reach it all the way up. Full, full breath.

  • Exhale, back down to the heart. Soft knees. Inhale, reach it up, fingertips kiss. Exhale,

  • This time, maybe hop it back to plank. Find your strong plank pose. Top of a push-up.

  • You can find a little movement here and then bend the elbows, loop the shoulders. You can

  • do Upward-Facing Dog or Cobra here. This time, I did a Cobra. Taking a little bit of rest,

  • always remembering to find the ease, listen to the body.

  • From our Downward Dog, we'll lift the right leg up and step it into our lunge. This time,

  • draw your palms together, lift them towards the heart. Strong legs, just like we had in

  • high lunge here, as we bring the elbows up and over. Outer edge of the left arm to the

  • outer edge of the right knee or thigh. We find extension through the spine as we press

  • the palms together. Keep the neck nice and long. Left heel is really spiking, reaching

  • toward the back edge of the mat. And then we release gently. Left fingertips to the

  • mat and open up through the right wing. On an exhale, back to center.

  • We plant the palms and step it back to plank. Shifting forward, Chaturanga. Practice. So

  • even if you don't know Chaturanga yet or you're working on building strength and integrity,

  • you can practice slowly lowering down to Up Dog or Cobra and then pressing back, Down

  • Dog

  • Here we go again. Inhale, sliding the sole of the left foot up now and stepping it forward.

  • Drawing the palms together at the heart, sternum to thumbs here as we press up. Strong legs.

  • Loop the shoulders here. Long neck. And then thinking up and over as we move into our next

  • twist. Peeling that left hip crease back. Outer edge of the right elbow to the outer

  • edge of that left thigh or knee. Press up and out of the palms here so we're not collapsing

  • but the torso is nice and long. And then I can stay where I'm at here or I can release

  • the right fingertips down and open up long through the left wing, left fingertips up

  • towards the sky.

  • And then on an exhale, melting it back to my lunge and rocking that back foot up to

  • meet the front. Uttanasana, Forward Fold. Inhale, lift a flat back here. Exhale, bow.

  • Bring the feet in together.

  • Come into a nice, deep squat. Palms together at the heart, sternum to thumbs. Inhale, elbows

  • go up and over, outer edge of the left elbow to the outer edge of the right knee. We find

  • our twist here, keeping the knees together best as possible. At least that's our intention.

  • Nice, long neck. 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.
