Waxing Crescent Moon- Sensitizing the Body Yoga Day 2

Welcome after warming up yesterday with the new moon, I am eager and excited to jump into Yoga with you today. Oh, so we are in the waxing crescent, which is all about the rebirthing.

00:00:34.134 –> 00:00:48.734

This is about intentions. This is about really being aware that you create your reality.

00:00:48.734 –> 00:00:55.737

Your thoughts, your feelings and feelings are the stories, the aspects, the tag lines, the descriptions that you put on your emotions.

00:00:55.737 –> 00:01:04.837

Emotions are vital to creating a reality. Good morning, low, nice!

00:01:04.837 –> 00:01:15.485

And so, while we are in this, I would like for us to stay out of our brains as much as we can, and sensitize our bodies.

00:01:15.485 –> 00:01:19.486

This is what this is about. This is really about us, being in a mindful space about where in our bodies have we been ignoring?

00:01:19.486 –> 00:01:22.334

Maybe some some pains, have we? We have some tightness, some stiffness.

00:01:22.334 –> 00:01:29.036

We are in advancing a little bit in the Yoga already.

00:01:29.036 –> 00:01:35.585

Just on day 2 today. But you can always go back to day one which was yesterday.

00:01:35.585 –> 00:01:46.786

Do not force, push, fight, pull yourself in any any of these positions.

00:01:46.786 –> 00:01:49.436

Allow for the unraveling process happen. So we are going to start with a triangle, and I realize that my video is a bit hard to see.

00:01:49.436 –> 00:02:01.835

So we’re just gonna be hip with a part.

00:02:01.835 –> 00:02:03.934

Just have your your feet the same with the part as your hips and we’re gonna have our arms out at our sides, and then we are going to bend.

00:02:03.934 –> 00:02:15.336

Over.

00:02:15.336 –> 00:02:22.936

And we can widen just a little bit if you need to, to get to our knee and pull or arm over.

00:02:22.936 –> 00:02:33.085

You wanna try to? I try to cool my body back and over.

00:02:33.085 –> 00:02:42.384

Good morning, Natasha. So over head, over and your hand is just at your knee right now we’re gonna hold for 10.

00:02:42.384 –> 00:02:54.835

9, hey! 7, 6, right for

00:02:54.835 –> 00:02:58.334

To, and one go back, 2 arms out, and we are going to go to the other side as as you’re doing.

00:02:58.334 –> 00:03:05.634

This imagine that you’re like a windmill, and you want to stay.

00:03:05.634 –> 00:03:25.384

As as perfectly in a alignment as possible. So don’t go forward with this.

00:03:25.384 –> 00:03:31.335

You want to stay in alignment, reaching your arm over for 19, 8, 7, 6, 5 for 3 to one.

00:03:31.335 –> 00:03:36.585

Okay, back to neutral. I’ve got my little book in front of me.

00:03:36.585 –> 00:03:47.284

So I’m going to be walking forward and back alright.

00:03:47.284 –> 00:03:55.885

So our next exercise we started yesterday, which will be the back stretch, and so I’m gonna sit back here hopefully.

00:03:55.885 –> 00:04:04.634

You can see me. Okay, so we’re gonna sit with legs out straight directly in front of us, and the back stretch.

00:04:04.634 –> 00:04:09.435

Yesterday, we with back and forward to our knees. Today we are going to go to our cabs.

00:04:09.435 –> 00:04:19.734

Okay, so it’s slightly bigger. Stretch and let me just see

00:04:19.734 –> 00:04:25.384

We are gonna hold for 20. Okay? So we’re gonna take our arms and go back.

00:04:25.384 –> 00:04:40.285

And this is really just a way to engage the core. If your core is not engaged.

00:04:40.285 –> 00:04:49.635

Tighten it up. Be aware of it. I’ve been doing this for almost a month now, just intentionally, always having my core engaged, and this is such a powerful practice.

00:04:49.635 –> 00:04:59.836

Go forward. You’re gonna I really want you to feel your hips engage as you go forward to your calves.

00:04:59.836 –> 00:05:03.136

You can grab your caps and gently, if it feels good, cool down, and we’re here for 20.

00:05:03.136 –> 00:05:26.984

And relax your thighs while you’re here.

00:05:26.984 –> 00:05:37.535

Relax your thighs, relax your back, relax in your shoulders, relax your calves, but engaged, I really my hands are engaged, and I can feel myself releasing everything behind me.

00:05:37.535 –> 00:05:50.834

So we’re here for another 19 a. And as you’re here, do you feel yourself

00:05:50.834 –> 00:05:54.585

Easing more and more into the stretch. Feel yourself falling more and more into the stretch we know the back of your legs.

00:05:54.585 –> 00:06:08.484

Gently releasing the tightness that is in them.

00:06:08.484 –> 00:06:11.384

And backup. I like to come back up with a shoulder rotation to really make sure that I’m standing or sitting up right

00:06:11.384 –> 00:06:18.936

Next, we’re going to be doing a simple twist.

00:06:18.936 –> 00:06:26.485

We are going to keep one leg straight. So if you want to start right or left, you can near me or not.

00:06:26.485 –> 00:06:33.785

So one way, we’re going to put our leg at our knee, so your foot is going to go straight with your knee.

00:06:33.785 –> 00:06:42.185

Okay. And then we are gonna go the opposite elbow is going to go.

00:06:42.185 –> 00:07:08.636

On the other side of the leg. I think she actually like grabs her leg somehow.

00:07:08.636 –> 00:07:17.286

Yeah, I don’t think so. So elbow if you can, to your knee to twist hand directly facing back to twist and face backwards for 19, 8, feel if you can pull a little bit more, 7.

00:07:17.286 –> 00:07:22.484

And by pulling I mean ease into it, not forcing 3 to one.

00:07:22.484 –> 00:07:39.436

Gently onravel

00:07:39.436 –> 00:07:56.384

Straightening the leg. That was that bending the alternate leg, I’ve got cedar all over me, taking the elbow, putting it to the other side of the leg.

00:07:56.384 –> 00:08:02.485

Hand facing backwards, Jen, so you’re almost you’re taking your elbow and your you’re leveraging your elbow down to get the twist more.

00:08:02.485 –> 00:08:13.535

So you’re leveraging, twisting back, head facing back.

00:08:13.535 –> 00:08:27.336

Breathing, 3 breathing, breathing, or 19, 8, 7.

00:08:27.336 –> 00:08:34.885

Next 5 for 3 to and one, and gently coming out of this stretch

00:08:34.885 –> 00:08:36.936

I’m unraveling, unraveling, and automatically I want to do this.

00:08:36.936 –> 00:08:42.285

And this is the next stretch or we just did that right.

00:08:42.285 –> 00:08:53.585

We just did the backstrex. So you need to take a moment and just and twist.

00:08:53.585 –> 00:09:02.040

Remember when you come up, I really like to pull the shoulders back and down, so I’m prettyly not keeping them tensed.

00:09:02.040 –> 00:09:12.937

Okay? Sensitizing the body is all about being aware of what it is that you body?

00:09:12.937 –> 00:09:16.336

Yes. Okay. So the last one that we are gonna do is the cobra I will screw back as far as I can.

00:09:16.336 –> 00:09:25.736

To demonstrate this a little better than yesterday’s video.

00:09:25.736 –> 00:09:31.186

So we are gonna go down. And you’re gonna lay all the way down, face to one side, arms at your side.

00:09:31.186 –> 00:09:40.686

And really just take a deep breath here and release

00:09:40.686 –> 00:09:51.037

You’re gonna bring your arms up, putting them or your fingers face together.

00:09:51.037 –> 00:10:04.484

Forehead on your fingers, polling your head up your arms, go out at a full M.

00:10:04.484 –> 00:10:14.536

45 90 degree angle. This should make a 90 degree angle, with hands facing inwards, and you’re pushing up a slightly more slightly more than yesterday.

00:10:14.536 –> 00:10:17.837

But I just realized I missed one of the exercises because I read through them earlier, and we did not do them.

00:10:17.837 –> 00:10:30.936

So good morning.

00:10:30.936 –> 00:10:44.584

Pushing up, releasing the legs, releasing the button, releasing the lower back and engaged in the shoulders. Let’s hold for another 1514, 13,

00:10:44.584 –> 00:10:57.985

1119, 8, 7, 6 hi, or 2,

00:10:57.985 –> 00:11:05.236

And you’re simultaneously lowing ourselves, keeping your head up, just your head, slide your hands back in and lower your forehead

00:11:05.236 –> 00:11:32.937

Take. Take a few nice deep breaths in this space.

00:11:32.937 –> 00:11:43.136

And we will go back. Push yourself up into cat cow position, and then you can walk your knees forward and sit on your legs, or you can do a sitting position.

00:11:43.136 –> 00:11:45.885

But I missed the just expands, and the knee, and by stretch after the triangle, so I’ve missed a page.

00:11:45.885 –> 00:11:52.537

So we’re gonna go back to do those exercises.

00:11:52.537 –> 00:12:00.436

And then, when we do them all 3 times a piece, just know that they’re going to be in slightly different orders.

00:12:00.436 –> 00:12:06.236

So we did the chest expansion yesterday. And have feet a little bit closer together.

00:12:06.236 –> 00:12:12.536

Not quite hip with the part, but nice, and together we’re gonna take our hands.

00:12:12.536 –> 00:12:22.036

I’ll do it slide rate. So you can see you’re gonna push your hands up.

00:12:22.036 –> 00:12:36.785

And back. You want to grab clasp your fingers together and we’re gonna pull back slightly large about the middle of our.

00:12:36.785 –> 00:12:53.437

But we just did to the top of our. But we’re gonna do it in the middle of our button today and hold for 1514, 1312, 1110

00:12:53.437 –> 00:13:05.584

8, 7, 6, 5, or 3 to one, bring it back up, and then we are going to hang over.

00:13:05.584 –> 00:13:24.836

So. Yes, we had a flat back. We’re gonna go slightly more today or 1514, 1312.

00:13:24.836 –> 00:13:41.386

1119, 8, 7, 6, right or 2, and gently raise yourself back.

00:13:41.386 –> 00:13:54.786

I I really for me to be sensitized, and in my body, when I’m moving to roll my shoulders back so that my posture stays well so that I’ve engaged my core is tight.

00:13:54.786 –> 00:14:00.986

I actively engaging those muscles I know a lot of times after birth we end up relaxing these muscles, but engaging them so relaxed.

00:14:00.986 –> 00:14:04.537

You can have this belly, but when you in gate you’re sucking in an array.

00:14:04.537 –> 00:14:11.738

But you’re also tightening your

00:14:11.738 –> 00:14:17.985

You’re tightening your core. Okay? I don’t know if my phone battery is actually gonna last.

00:14:17.985 –> 00:14:23.284

The whole time out here, so we’ll see I have my zoom backup video.

00:14:23.284 –> 00:14:28.036

But it’s definitely not capturing the full image like the phone is.

00:14:28.036 –> 00:14:33.185

So we’ll see what happens. So now we’ve got through each of the oh, just kidding.

00:14:33.185 –> 00:14:36.684

We’ve got one more. One more today. So we sit back.

00:14:36.684 –> 00:14:47.385

We’re gonna take our feet in butterfly position.

00:14:47.385 –> 00:14:54.087

We are going to put our feet together. Hands are going to clasp around the front of our feet.

00:14:54.087 –> 00:15:20.338

Okay. And then we are going to push our legs down.

00:15:20.338 –> 00:15:31.236

So they’re up here. Just relax. We’re gonna push them down as far as they will go down towards the floor, and we’re gonna hold this for 2019 1817, 1615, 1413, 1211, 10.

00:15:31.236 –> 00:15:51.437

Line, 8, 7, 6, 5 for 1, 3, 2,

00:15:51.437 –> 00:16:06.486

And release. Okay. So now, just like yesterday, we go through and do each of the exercises one time, then we will go through and do each of these exercises 3 times within the holds.

00:16:06.486 –> 00:16:17.536

We will just be going through each of the exercises 3 times the last step that we will do is we will go through all the exercises as if it’s like a ballet or a slow motion.

00:16:17.536 –> 00:16:21.185

Sequence, to get through all of them, so we will start with the triangles.

00:16:21.185 –> 00:16:32.837

That’s what we started with today. So, hands out, seat.

00:16:32.837 –> 00:16:38.784

Hip with a part, and we will be doing these 3 times, so we will be going over to our knee.

00:16:38.784 –> 00:16:51.635

10, then back over to neutral to the other side

00:16:51.635 –> 00:16:55.285

To neutral should be other side, which is 2 to neutral

00:16:55.285 –> 00:17:06.786

Either side.

00:17:06.786 –> 00:17:15.436

And one more going to the side, feeling that beautiful, lengthening stretch.

00:17:15.436 –> 00:17:21.636

Other side last time for the triangle, and here we are at neutral.

00:17:21.636 –> 00:17:27.285

Now we stay in standing this is what I said. I missed this doing this in the right sequence last time.

00:17:27.285 –> 00:17:40.938

So now to the chest expansion, which we push forward.

00:17:40.938 –> 00:17:55.286

Go up and back and pull down to then we will go over to slightly more than flat back today.

00:17:55.286 –> 00:18:01.985

Up, roll the shoulders back and down again, push out around, and pull down

00:18:01.985 –> 00:18:15.484

And forward!

00:18:15.484 –> 00:18:22.936

And one more time. Push out okay in the round to pull down

00:18:22.936 –> 00:18:35.736

To forward.

00:18:35.736 –> 00:18:51.836

And back we will be sitting now to do our knee and thigh.

00:18:51.836 –> 00:18:56.785

Stretch, pulling our feet in grasping our toes, we will push down towards the floor with our knees, and come back up and release.

00:18:56.785 –> 00:19:05.286

Push down, take a breath.

00:19:05.286 –> 00:19:09.236

Please, and one more time push down towards the floor.

00:19:09.236 –> 00:19:15.837

And release

00:19:15.837 –> 00:19:28.385

Our next exercise.

00:19:28.385 –> 00:19:39.735

Is the backstretch. So legs go out in front of you. Arms go up back.

00:19:39.735 –> 00:19:51.186

Grab your calves and gently lower out

00:19:51.186 –> 00:19:56.384

Back up, to lean back, and go forward. You can kind of feel, maybe, that you want to like.

00:19:56.384 –> 00:20:04.836

Pull. You’re almost like able to bend a little bit more gently.

00:20:04.836 –> 00:20:16.237

Allow for your body 2 full holding the calves

00:20:16.237 –> 00:20:19.286

And bring your arms back up, back and forward, gently pulling down.

00:20:19.286 –> 00:20:32.836

It’s your calves.

00:20:32.836 –> 00:20:39.585

Then we have this simple twist from here. We are taking our leg, going to our knee with our foot.

00:20:39.585 –> 00:20:50.135

Leveraging our elbow to the out of our knee, and twisting back

00:20:50.135 –> 00:20:57.586

Breathing and feeling.

00:20:57.586 –> 00:21:11.537

The twist and the releases stretch.

00:21:11.537 –> 00:21:18.084

And again unravel, interesting to the other side

00:21:18.084 –> 00:21:29.485

Each twist should maybe feel a little bit easier

00:21:29.485 –> 00:21:42.184

Second set. Oh, 12, twisting and unravel, go to the other side and twist

00:21:42.184 –> 00:21:58.489

Release, and we have one more twist.

00:21:58.489 –> 00:22:07.236

The other side. Last time elbow leverage to the outside of the knee and twist

00:22:07.236 –> 00:22:12.486

Release.

00:22:12.486 –> 00:22:18.436

And then we will be going to the Cobra

00:22:18.436 –> 00:22:43.585

Just double check. Yeah. So going to the Covid

00:22:43.585 –> 00:22:57.486

Like down, lowering yourself down gently, hands at your side, went to the side, lifting your head, bringing your hands up so under your forehead, sliding them out at a 90 degree, and pushing yourself up

00:22:57.486 –> 00:23:07.035

Yeah. Well, sliding the hands into your forehead again. Slide the hands out, push up

00:23:07.035 –> 00:23:15.237

Leasing down, or head down.

00:23:15.237 –> 00:23:19.036

Up, slide up, machine, app.

00:23:19.036 –> 00:23:30.637

And release

00:23:30.637 –> 00:23:42.236

So now we will be going through the entire sequence today.

00:23:42.236 –> 00:23:57.284

And we will not be pausing in between them, will be going from one to the other to the other.

00:23:57.284 –> 00:24:08.436

So one sequence to the next, to the next, so we will be starting off with a triangle and going from there so we’ll be doing each of these once hip with a part.

00:24:08.436 –> 00:24:18.885

Go to the side, open me and over, and remember we’re trying to do this as if we are graceful.

00:24:18.885 –> 00:24:27.384

Now arenas, so there’s no jerking movements in any of this.

00:24:27.384 –> 00:24:31.237

Next we go to just expansion. Forward

00:24:31.237 –> 00:24:47.735

Yeah.

00:24:47.735 –> 00:24:59.584

And I,

00:24:59.584 –> 00:25:11.538

Yes. So now we go down to neat by stretch.

00:25:11.538 –> 00:25:24.885

I could have probably managed that more gracefully. You you can as well, and we’re pushing the knees down towards the floor

00:25:24.885 –> 00:25:31.537

Raising them back up, stretching our legs out to go into the back stretch

00:25:31.537 –> 00:25:48.838

Grasping the cabs.

00:25:48.838 –> 00:26:06.987

Taking our leg to the opposite side of the knee, leveraging the elbow and twisting back

00:26:06.987 –> 00:26:16.684

Going forward opposite leg. It goes. The opposite elbow leverages around

00:26:16.684 –> 00:26:30.837

Releasing.

00:26:30.837 –> 00:26:44.186

To forward, and from there we have the advanced cobra going down

00:26:44.186 –> 00:26:57.384

Hands under the forehead, raising the head, pulling the arms out, and pushing up slightly higher than yesterday.

00:26:57.384 –> 00:26:59.686

Take a nice breath here, releasing the releasing the legs engaged in your shoulders and your upper back.

00:26:59.686 –> 00:27:12.787

Take a breath.

00:27:12.787 –> 00:27:16.936

And release. Down, arms, down, head to the side, arms at your side.

00:27:16.936 –> 00:27:53.184

Take a few moments here.

00:27:53.184 –> 00:27:58.685

Hmm! Come back, maybe doing up and sitting

00:27:58.685 –> 00:28:08.134

Your feet, or in this cross, whichever is easiest.

00:28:08.134 –> 00:28:29.136

I’m going to read the thoughts for the day, as I find that they are very helpful.

00:28:29.136 –> 00:28:36.684

The thoughts with the day. What is Yoga? Many centuries ago in that area of the world now known as India, men of great intellectual and spiritual stature perceived in a very direct way that human beings are disjointed, that is, the body, emotions, mind and spirit pool in their own

00:28:36.684 –> 00:28:51.536

Directions as each intern demands. The fulfillment of its own needs and desires.

00:28:51.536 –> 00:28:59.986

This causes a continual separation, and prevents the individual from functioning as an integrated whole, wherein his full potential is realized to make possible an integration of the body.

00:28:59.986 –> 00:29:14.386

Mind and spirit to unify the diverse aspects of the organism and end the split.

00:29:14.386 –> 00:29:24.136

These wise men, or gurus of ancient times, evolved and perfected over the centuries a system of self-development known as Yoga, a Sanskrit word, meaning union, or joining together.

00:29:24.136 –> 00:29:38.084

There are several major types of yoga, each employing different techniques that all designed to achieve the same unifying aspect.

00:29:38.084 –> 00:29:40.037

The 2 major Yogans that concern us in this book are Raja or meditative Yoga, and half the physical Yoga, with the emphasis on the ladder.

00:29:40.037 –> 00:29:59.737

The objectives of half a yoga are twofold.

00:29:59.737 –> 00:30:20.686

To go, cultivate the natural beauty of the body, and attain a high state of health, and 2 to awaken a great power that lies dormant in the organism, and utilize it for developing one’s own unique individual potential that is to see achieve self realization or as I call it to

00:30:20.686 –> 00:30:30.436

Remember your magical self from the above you can understand that Yoga is not simply another system of exercising the word exercise is used in this book as a convenience more precisely half a yoga is composed of a series of postures or poses Asanas in

00:30:30.436 –> 00:30:34.336

Sanskrit, as you perform the Asanas, you must be aware that they have been carefully designed to promote health and beauty as well as stimulate energies.

00:30:34.336 –> 00:30:39.636

That will be of extreme importance in the days to come.

00:30:39.636 –> 00:30:46.285

Hence the necessary for poise, balance, and concentration.

00:30:46.285 –> 00:31:07.786

At all times during this practice. So I know that I’m distracted because I’m leading you in this practice.

00:31:07.786 –> 00:31:11.784

So I am being very mindful on those twists. On those holds that I’m breathing, that I’m feeling into where the tightnesses are in my body that I’m releasing and allowing for my body to stretch and move and to gently bring it back into the alignment

00:31:11.784 –> 00:31:17.284

That it’s so desires to be so. Thanks for joining in with me.

00:31:17.284 –> 00:31:31.237

If you’re enjoying this, I encourage you to hop on over to payment.

00:31:31.237 –> 00:31:34.685

Dot com forward slash magical, leathering, and join in one of those tiers, as even the $3 a month helps me significantly, and things will be shifting and changing over the Patreon in the months to come.

00:31:34.685 –> 00:31:42.635

March twenty-first, the spring equinox.

00:31:42.635 –> 00:31:51.137

I will no longer be doing Facebook lives, but I will be highly concentrating on writing the spiral of the year.

00:31:51.137 –> 00:31:59.587

The divine, devotional, or the daily devotional for the divine, feminine, and working on the 2,024 planner.

00:31:59.587 –> 00:32:11.234

So if those are things that you’re interested in receiving tidbits of over the next year, that is what I’m going to be highlighting and focusing on for the Patrion.

00:32:11.234 –> 00:32:17.986

So continue through with the journey. This has catapulted so much inspiration, and really got me clear in what it is that I’m needing to be doing with the world.

00:32:17.986 –> 00:32:24.136

And so thanks for coming along with me in this journey. Hi, Stacy, and I’m so very grateful for your support.

00:32:24.136 –> 00:32:31.885

Your encouragement, your love, and I am excited for the next year to come.

00:32:31.885 –> 00:32:38.084

As we finish out this these last 2 lunar phases of this 13 cycle that we started last year.

00:32:38.084 –> 00:32:44.786

So have an absolutely magical day. Do not do any more Yoga today.

00:32:44.786 –> 00:32:59.686

That is very important. We are doing this practicing what is demonstrated or brought forward is enough.

00:32:59.686 –> 00:33:04.886

Let your body rest, feel into maybe parts of your body that might be a little sore from yesterday, or might be sore from today and just enjoy this experience of being and integrating in your body.

00:33:04.886 –> 00:33:05.886

I will see you all tomorrow. Have an absolutely amazing day
