9-Minute Gentle Somatic Flow | Get Out Of Your Head & Into Your Body

This gentle somatic flow is simple but effective at getting you out of your head and into your body. It’s beginner-friendly and moves the body in soothing patterns that also stretch the spine, upper body, and hips. We use the breath to oxygenate our bodies and minds while practicing forceful exhales to release stored tension. This entire flow is quick and juicy, making it the perfect morning yoga practice, or a gentle yoga warm up, or something for mid-day when you need to press the reset button. Here is the flow: We begin on our knees with some juicy cat-cow movements and spinal rolls. We make our way to a squat with wrist rolls. Shoulder dips. Bouncing/hopping while shaking out the wrists. Standing side stretches. Standing forward folds with powerful exhales and arm swings. Closing with calmness. THIS IS FOR YOU if you are having a stressful day, feel like you’re too busy, or are having a hard time focusing. #gentleyoga #somaticflow #somaticyoga #nervoussystemregulation #groundingpractice ♡ If you enjoyed this practice, like the video + subscribe to Yoga with Marquis.
