I wake up my body in the morning the same way like to begin my yoga practice. The sequence is simple, spherical, and it opens up the spine, pelvis, shoulders, and neck. It’s easy to dial it up or down, which makes it versatile and something you can easily commit to every day. Let it feel natural and organic for your body and your context, so allow yourself to veer on and off the path in whatever way you need.
