With just 10 minutes, you can start your day refreshed and ready to take on anything. This easy flow gently awakens your body and mind through poses like cat-cow, downward facing dog, chair pose, and tree pose.

Start by Moving Your Spine

Begin in table position on your hands and knees. Gently arch your back up into cow pose, rounding your spine and opening your heart. Then round your back into cat pose, curling your spine and tucking your chin. Repeat 5-10 times to wake up your spine in a gentle range of motion.

From table position, tuck your toes under and lift into downward facing dog. Press your heels down and lengthen through your sides and arms. Hold for 5 breaths to stretch your shoulders, spine and hamstrings.

Get Low in Lunge Pose

Step one foot forward into a low lunge. Lower your back knee towards the ground while keeping your front knee over your ankle. Hold for 5 breaths on each side to stretch your hips and groin.

Chair Pose to Stimulate

Folded forward to Release

From chair pose, rise up and fold at your hips into a forward fold. Hang and let gravity stretch your entire back side. Hold for 5 breaths to release tension and relax.

Balancing Tree Pose

Shift your weight to one leg. Lift the other foot and rest it on your inner thigh. Stay here for 5 breaths on each side, focusing on a point in front of you. This improves balance and focus for the day.
