welcome to salamander yoga oh hi salamander let's go for a walk outside
okay stop here and smell that fresh air ah oh look there's some ants walking in front of you
I think one of them wants to say something let's Crouch Down super slow and listen
I think it's said that there are some squirrels above you and that maybe you
can try to be their friend let's be careful not to scare them maybe we can offer a handshake
put one hand on the ground and let's slowly lift the other hand up towards the squirrel
up higher stretch that arm hold here hmm maybe try the other squirrel so bring that hand down
and put it on the ground and slowly raise your other hand up towards the other squirrel
stretch and hold maybe the squirrels aren't shaking hands today that's okay you can lower
your hand now I wonder if we were a tree would the squirrels be more friendly let's try so
slowly let's raise our bodies up and reach out and up and up reach those arms High to touch the sky
just like branches would wait here and try to be really still good the squirrels
are curious but still a little scared of your big strong branches what if we moved
our arms away from the squirrels and touched our hands together in front of our chest and
we can bring our feet together too now lift up one foot and put it against your leg like this
uh oh it's getting a little windy try to stay calm and balanced just like a real tree great work we
can bring your foot back to the ground and then lift up your other foot towards the opposite leg
hold here breathe in and out and balance excellent oh no a squirrel dropped its Keys let's pick them
up in a special way spread your feet a little apart and point one foot sideways towards the
keys your hand from the same side is going to touch that sideways foot knees straight
slowly bend your body at the hips and reach down now with your other hand grab the keys try and
keep your body in the same spot and move just your hand with the keys up to the sky and give
those keys back reach you did it oh no the other squirrel dropped its nuts can you say ah nuts
bring your hand back down we will do the same stretch but on the opposite side so your foot
that was sideways can now Point straight and your other foot can point sideways now take
your other hand and grab the nuts now slowly reach up remember to try and only move your hand and arm
can you reach the squirrel up up you did it uh oh a storm is coming the squirrels look worried maybe
we can make a shelter for them let's move towards the ground and get on our hands and knees spread
those hands and legs a little bit apart your belly can drop towards the ground and your bum can point
towards the sky the squirrels are coming to get out of the rain great hold still here
oh no an apple has fallen on your back let's see if we can roll it off
push your back up towards the sky and let your head come down to look at your tummy
phew the apple is gone so let's go back to how we were that is belly down bum up look straight ahead
great job and oh no they're apple and this one's bigger and heavier heavy so one more time put your
bum down back up look at your belly and hold here okay the apple is off and the rain has stopped
let's roll on to our backs for a rest look up at the sky and hey the squirrels are coming to hang out
oh but there's a fuzzy tail on your face let's see if we can blow it off ready slowly breathe in
blow okay let's softly breathe in and out and watch the squirrel's tail go up and down
