Morning Yoga for Mobility

You do not need to arrive on the mat feeling flexible or fully awake. Begin with an easy seat, notice your breath and let the first few movements be small. There is room to notice how each side feels. Choose a smaller movement whenever it helps you breathe more easily. When you reach Corpse Pose, let the floor support you for 1 minute and 30 seconds before you sit up.
