that you can do for weight loss. Let's get started. We'll start on all fours on your

hands and needs. Make sure your wrists are right under your shoulders. Same thing with

your knees and hips. So just starting to move a bit with your spine with your breath here.

So as you inhale, dropping your belly all the way down, looking upward. And then as

you exhale, rounding all the way in, tucking your chin. And just a few more times like

this here on your own. Nice and smooth and easy, just to start to get everything open

and working for you here. And just breathing a whole, whole lot. And the next time you

do inhale here, looking all the way upward to the very top of that inhale, gently tuck

your toes, we'll start to reach your hips all the way up and back to your nice Downward

Dog. And just soften the heels. Relax your head and neck and shoulders. Maybe sway a

little side to side. Again, just starting to get the body nice and open and easy. Lot's

of room in there. So take a big inhale, lift way up onto your tippy toes, reach your heels.

And then as you exhale, soften right back down to the ground. Twice more just like that

here. Big inhale lifts you right up to the top. And then as you exhale, soften the heels

and relax. Last one just like that here. Big inhale lifts you right up to the very top.

And then as you exhale, soften the heels and relax right back in. Nice. So we'll tuck your

chin, roll all the way out to your Plank Pose, big long wave through your whole spine. And

then once you're out here, simply settling in, hanging on for a few long, easy, deep

breaths. Maybe swaying gently side to side or forward and back, just to allow your wrists

to get comfortable, having some of your bodyweight on them. And then when you're ready, gently

lift your hips all the way up and back to your nice Downward Dog. One more time just

like that here. Tucking your chin, rounding all the out to your Plank Pose. Nice, big,

long wave here. So we'll come over to Side Plank on your right hand here. Lifting up

the hips a ways, keeping the fingers spread, open up your whole body to the side, wide

open across the collar bones. And then when you're ready, rolling back to your middle.

Same thing up and over to your other side here. Lifting up the hips a ways. Keeping

the fingers of the left hand spread open wide. Open up your whole body here. Nice and soft

and easy. And then when you're ready, rolling back to your middle here. So we'll lower and

lift a few times all the way down to the ground and then all the way back up here. So bend

your elbows nice and slow and controlled all the way down to the ground. And then tuck

your toes in one piece all the way right back up. Twice more just like that here. Bend the

elbows straight back. Lower all the way down. And, again, pushing down all the way back

up. Last one just like that here. Nice and controlled all the way down. And, again, in

one piece, keep breathing all the way right up and back to your Downward Dog. This time,

relaxing the heels and head and neck and shoulders. So we'll take an easy stroll, opening up the

backs of your legs here. One simple step at a time. Nice simple walk here. And then once

you're all the way up, folding inward over your legs, let your head go, let your neck

soften. And we'll round up to stand here, one vertebrae at a time, no hurry. Once you

do arrive up to your very top, let a big inhale fill your arms all the way out and up. And

then as you exhale, softly fold right up and over your legs. Twice more just like that

here. Nice and simple all the way up and all the way back over. Really simply beginning

to allow your body to move with your breath here, so every inhale opening and creating

a little bit more space. And then every exhale, softening and carrying a little further and

deeper inward. One more time just like that here. All the way up and all the way back

over. Big inhale sweeps your arms all the way out and up. And then as you exhale soften

and relax right back down. So we'll press your palms down, step right back into your

Plank Pose again. This time we'll lower halfway down to the ground, bend your elbows straight

back. Ease your knees, lift into a nice Upward Dog here so you open up the spine and the

front of your body. Or maybe sway a little side to side just to see what's going on there

and make a little bit more room. And then take a big inhale to lift up the front of

your body and then as you exhale, tuck your toes and we'll lift right up and back into

your nice Downward Dog. So take a big inhale, reach your right leg way up and back behind

you, Downward Dog Split. Open up the hips and shoulders. So we're gonna take your knee

all the way around, tap it the outside edge of your right shoulder, and then keep it lifted

here, sweep it all the way across your body. So really moving your whole hips and belly

here over. Open up the hips, and send the leg right back behind you. Same thing, starting,

twisting, bring your knee all the way down and across your body and open up your hips

and send the leg right back behind you. All of that one more time, real smooth here, way

up and out to your right side. Sweep it across your body, open up the hips and send it all

the way back behind you. Last one, starting, twisting, bring your knee all the way down

and across your body and we'll open up the hips and send it all the way right back. So

this time, take your knee way up into your forehead nice and high around your upper back

here. Gently place your foot right between your hands, Low Lunge. So we'll come into

a Warrior 1 from here. So spin your back heel down so both bottoms of your feet are firmly

planted here. Once your feet are on the ground, push down, big inhale lifts yourself all the

way up. And then just square off your hips and shoulders toward the front of you, hanging

here for a few breaths. And then maybe drop your tailbone so a little bit of space can

open up in the front of your body. Maybe a little bit of an arch happens. And just keep

your gaze nice and soft. So keeping your legs right where they are, gently drop your hands

back behind you. Interlace them together. Big inhale lifts you right up. And then as

you exhale, we'll fold all the way up and over here, right inside your front leg. Pushing

down firmly through your feet, we're gonna come all the way right back up to stand here.

Big inhale lifts you all the way up to the top. And then as you exhale, we'll fold all

the way up and over again right inside your front leg. Nice. From here, gently release

your fingertips down to the ground here inside your front foot. Come onto your back toes

and we'll start to scooch your front foot on over to your right edge of your mat here.

Gently ease your back knee down to the ground. So getting into your hips a little bit. Maybe

stay up on the arms. If there's room to come on down to the forearms, go ahead and come

on down. Maybe sway a little side to side. Open up the hips a bit. And just breathe a

lot. So from here, staying on your forearms, you're gonna shift your whole body weight

into your left side of your self, just enough so you can swing this right leg all the way

around to a nice Forearm Plank. And then simply hanging here for a few easy breaths. Top of

your head floating forward. Heels reaching back behind you. Breath staying nice and calm

and easy. So staying on your forearms, we'll start to walk your feet all the way up to

a nice Downward Dog on your forearms. Push down through your hands and we'll straighten

your arms all the way back into your nice Downward Dog. And, again, just finding a nice

sense of softness in your body here. Maybe swaying a little side to side. Getting into

any creaks or corners. And we'll do the same thing on the other side here. So big inhale,

take your left leg way up and back behind you. Open up the hips and shoulders here,

make some space. And then we'll arc your left knee way around, tap it to your left side.

Gently sweep it all the way across your body. Open up the hips here and send it all the

way back behind you. See if you can move through this really slow and easy here. So if you

rush through it it just makes it a little less effective here. So opening all the way

up and all the way back behind you. All of that one more time, nice and smooth. Way up

and out, tap it to your left side. Sweep it across your body. Open up the hips and send

it all the way back. Last one, starting, twisting, bringing your knee all the way down and across

So you wanna make sure your front heel and your back arch are in a nice line. And as

you push down, lift everything all the way up here. So, squaring off your hips and shoulders

to your front. Again, maybe drop your tailbone so a little space in the chest can free up.

And keeping the gaze nice and soft. So legs stay right where they are, gently drop hands

back behind you. Interlace them together. Big inhale lifts your body up. And then as

you exhale, we'll fold all the way up and over here right inside your front leg. Nice.

Pushing down firmly through both feet, big inhale lifts you all the way up to the very

top. And then as you exhale, folding all the way up and over here right inside the leg.

When you're ready this time, gently release your fingertips down here inside your front

foot. Come onto your back toes, and we'll scooch this left foot on over to your left

edge of your mat. Ease the back knee down. And, again, just see what's going on in your

hips here. Maybe staying upright. Maybe coming down to the forearms. Breathe a whole, whole

lot. Maybe sway gently side to side. And, again, when you're ready, staying on your

forearms, start to shift your whole body weight into your right side, just enough so you can

swing this left leg all the way around to a nice Forearm Plank. And, again, simply hanging

here for a few moments. So this time we'll roll into some Side Forearm Planks here. Lifting

all the way up here, roll onto the right forearm. Open up your whole body to the side. Fingertips

can stay on the ground. If you feel pretty steady to open it up, that's great too. And

then when you're ready, rolling back to your middle. Same thing other side, rolling onto

the left side, open up your whole body. Maybe stretch open the arm. And come all the way

back to the middle. One more time each side here. Rolling all the way up and over, easy

deep breath. And all the way back to the middle. Last one on the other side here. Rolling all

the way open, easy across the collar bones. And when you're ready, coming all the way

back to middle here. So we can slowly start to walk your feet all the way up to your nice

Downward Dog on your forearms. Lift your hips, lift your belly. And, again, push down, see

if you can straighten out both arms at the same time. Right back into your nice Downward

Dog. So, again, real simply, we'll start to walk your feet up to the top of your mat here.

One stroll at a time. Nice, easy walk. Once you're up here, folding inward over your legs.

Let your head go, let your neck soften. And we'll round up one vertebrae at a time, real

simple. Once you're all the way up, big inhale takes your arms all the way out and up. And

then as you exhale, softly fold all the way back down. Again, plant your palms, we'll

step right back to your Plank Pose. So lowering and lifting all the way down and all the way

up here. Gently bend your elbows all the way down to your belly. And then push down, come

all the way back up. Twice more just like that here. All the way down to your belly.

And then push down all the way back up. Last one just like that here, all the way down

to your belly. And then all the way right up and back to your nice Downward Dog here.

Relaxing the heels and head and neck and shoulders. Just finding your breath. And then when you're

ready here, gently ease your knees down to the ground and shift your hips to sit back

on your heels and take a breather in your Child's Pose. Once you feel steady, gently

roll yourself all the way up, and great job. So there you have it: A great routine that

you can do for weight loss. I'm Tara Stiles and I'll see you next time on the Yoga Solution.
