What's up, everyone?
Welcome to Yoga with Adriene.
I'm Adriene.
It's really chilly here in Austin, Texas, so chances are it's chilly in other places
too if it's this cold in Texas, and it's really hard to get on the mat when it's really cold.
All we want to do is eat and watch TV, or read books, and that's all great but we want
to keep moving to stay in shape, keep the juices flowing, great for circulation etc.
So we thought we'd do something really special for you this week.
We want to share a class from our Empower series.
Empower is a great big package of yoga that we sell on findwhatfeelsgood.com, and it is
my version of power yoga.
This is a big request that we got, so we made this power yoga package called Empower, and
we want to share an entire class with you for free today here on YouTube, which will
hopefully help you to get on your mat and stay moving during these cold, wintery months.
So it's sunny, it's sweaty, it's fierce.
Hop on the mat and get ready for Hearts.
Welcome, my friends.
Today we are going to start in a seated position, drawing the left heel in, and then the right
ankle to follow.
We'll reach the fingertips forward, breathe into the other edge of that right hip.
So rather than having the ankles crossed here, we have one foot in front of the other.
You can relax the weight of the head over, you can come onto the forearms.
You could sway a little side to side as we begin to check in with the breath and tune
in to the body.
Close your eyes, relax your jaw, forehead might come all the way down to the mat here.
Breathe deep.
Press into your sit bones and slowly begin to roll it up.
Great, we'll switch the legs, right heel in, left leg follows.
And the same thing.
We gently walk the fingertips out, check in on the other side.
Maybe you stay lifted, maybe you begin to relax the weight of the head over, coming
onto the forearms, even drawing the forehead to the earth, as you sway a little side to
side.
Deepening the breath, checking in.
Let go of the day thus far.
Let go of the to-do list ahead.
Slowly we'll walk it back to center.
Take a deep breath in as you draw the palms together at the heart and loop the shoulders.
Take a moment to set an intention for your practice today.
Repeat your intention to yourself honoring the power of word, the power of thoughts.
And then we'll consider it already done, as we take a nice, deep breath in, and a long,
smooth exhale out.
Send the fingertips forward.
Press into the tops of the feet as you come into table top position.
Knees underneath the hips, wrists underneath the shoulders.
Extend through the crown of the head.
Then we'll drop the belly, inhale.
Heart radiates forward.
Exhale.
Curl the tail under.
Arch the back.
Inhale, crawling up and down the spine.
We check in with a little spinal flex here in cat cow.
Move with your breath.
Go inward.
Now walk your palms forward, curl your toes under and send it up to downward facing dog.
[inaudible 00:04:03] legs.
Stretch the soles of the feet.
Wake up the side body.
Knit the lower rib cage together and shake the head a little yes and no.
Then we'll bend the knees generously and hop the feet up toward the front edge of your
mat.
Forward fold.
Grab the elbows.
Rock a little side to side.
Take a deep breath in, and on an exhale, release the hands.
Inhale, halfway lift, and exhale, slide it down, working out the kinks.
Tuck your chin into your chest.
Inhale, roll it all the way up to standing.
So we open the palms, find extension through the crown, as you press through all four corners
of the feet.
Inhale, reach the fingertips up overhead.
On your exhale, diving forward, soft knees.
Inhale, flat back position, exhale, bow.
Inhale, reach it all the way back up, full breath, exhale, hands to hearts.
Again, we inhale, reach it up, take up space, exhale, forward fold.

Again, inhale, getting the juices flowing as we reach up, exhale, fold.

Great.
Step the right foot back.
Come to a runner's lunge.
Breathe in and out.
Then plant the palms, step it back to plank.
Chaturanga to updog.
Exhale, downward facing dog.
Step the right foot up.
Check in with runner's lunge.
Breathe in and out.
And we'll rock that back foot up to meet the front, forward fold.
Inhale, halfway lift, exhale, slide it down.
Inhale, reach it all the way up, and exhale, hands to heart.
Take a deep breath in through the nose and exhale out through the mouth.
Soft knees.
Inhale, we reach it up again.
Exhale, dive forward.
Inhale, flat back, exhale, bow.
Fingertips come to the mat, and we bend the knees generously, bringing the belly to the
tops of the thighs.
As you inhale, reach the fingertips forward, up and back.
Come into utkatasana, chair pose.
Sit bones hover over the heels.
We lengthen through the crown of the head.
Breathe deep in this fierce pose.
Hug the inner thighs together.
Inhale, straighten the legs, slight back bend here if it feels good, and exhale, diving
forward.
Inhale, halfway lift, exhale, bow.
Step or hop the feet back to plank, and give it a rock, checking in with the body today.
And then when you're ready, we'll slowly lower down, chaturanga, or chaturanga practice,
lowering the belly all the way to the earth and lifting up to cobra or checking in with
up dog.
So we always have options here.
Mix and match.
Choose your own adventure.
Then we'll send it back up, and into downward facing dog.
Lift the right leg up.
Stack the right hip over the left and begin to draw circles with the right knee.
Consider carving a line with your right knee as you anchor down through the left heel,
and reverse your circle.
Breathe.
Then step the right foot all the way up.
Pivot on the back leg and inhale, reach up, warrior one.
Exhale, release.
Step the right foot back.
Come into your plank, and vinyasa.
Again, choose your own adventure here.
Strengthening, happy, soft and easy.

Deep breath in and out.
Great, my friends.
Now we'll come to the center of the mat for our heart pumping sequence.
Bring the hands to the waistline.
Take a deep breath in.
Exhale, bend the knees generously.
Then we'll step the right out for a squat, then bring the feet together, then to the
left, and so on.
Move nice and slow, a nice steady pace here so you can stay easy with the breath and tall
through the spine.
Working the lower body here today.
Keep the head over the heart, the heart over the pelvis.
Heart stays lifted here.
And we release.
Great.
Now step the feet wide and we move into jumping jacks, getting the blood flowing, the heart
pumping.
Keep a sense of humor here.
Maybe you remember when you were a kid and you did jumping jacks.
Again, we don't need any equipment here, just our bodies and space, and a sweet connection
to our breath.
Release.
Back to the squats.
Make it fun.
Draw your lower belly in.
Elbows wide.
Keep it going.
One more.
Then release.
All right, back to the jumping jacks.
Here we go.
Now rather than just throwing your body in space like you might have done when you were
a kid maybe, see if you can bring full body awareness to this jumping jack.
Smile when you need to.
Stay in control of your breath.
Release.
Great.
We'll step up to the front edge of our mat.
Connect to the breath.
As you inhale, reach the fingertips up.
Exhale, forward fold.
Inhale, halfway lift.
And exhale, slide it down.
Great.
We're going to hop the feet back to plank here, and always lower the knees for half

facing dog.
Inhale, step the right foot up.
Pivot on the back foot, as we reach up again, warrior one.
This time interlace the fingertip behind the tail as you open the chest.

Send it back down.
Step the right foot back and vinyasa.
Make it your own.
Choose your own adventure.
From downward dog, lift the left leg up.

Marrying the action to the breath, the breath to the action, we'll sink down into our chair.
Bring the palms together and twist to the right.
Try to keep the knees together here.
Extension out through the tail, and up through the crown.
Then we'll release to center, and take it to the left.
Press the palms together.
Extend through the crown.
Inhale, come back to center.
Then we'll release and reach it all the way up towards the sky, and find an exhale, hands
back down at your heart.
Feel your heart beat against your thumbs.
And then we'll inhale, reach it all the way up.
Exhale, enjoy this move as you dive forward.
Inhale, halfway lift, exhale, bow.
Step or hop the feet back to plank.
Nice and strong, chaturanga or chaturanga practice.
Up dog or cobra.
Send it back, downward dog.
Take a deep breath in as you lift the right leg up and step it into your lunge.
Pivot on the back foot.
Inhale, rise up, [inaudible 00:15:44] one.
Exhale, interlace the fingertips again as we open the chest.
Now melting down into humble warrior, keep the outer edge of that back foot strong as
you slowly release the crown of the head to the earth.
Inhale, rise up, exhale, stay strong through that back leg as you melt it forward.
Full body strengthener here.
Press into the ball joint of that big toe as you rise up and slowly melt down, fingertips
going up and overhead.
We'll stay here for one breath cycle in and out, nice, smooth, deep breath, and slowly
we'll release, coming all the way back up.
Reach the arms up and overhead, and then on an exhale, float it down.
In runner's lunge, plant your left palm as you inhale.
Open up through your right arm.
Twist, exhale, float it down.
Inhale, rise up.
Feel free to lower that back knee if you need to.
Exhale, release.
Last one.
We inhale.
Hold in the twist for one breath cycle and then release.
Lower the back knee.
Send the sit bones back.
We fold over that front leg, and we find three waves through the spine.
This is definitely something we develop with practice.
So do your best.
Now we'll shift the weight forward, come back to our lunge, and step it back to plank for
vinyasa.
Move with your breath.
Together we'll meet back in downward facing dog.
Here we go.
Drop the right heel.
Lift the left leg up.
Step it into your lunge.
Pivot on the back foot and when you're ready we'll inhale, reach up to [inaudible 00:17:41]
one.
Release the fingertips.
Interlace them behind the back.
Once again, we open the chest, extend through the crown of the head, and in your own time,
melting it down, humble warrior.
Strong legs.
As you inhale, lift your heart.
Exhale.
Keep the outer edge of that back foot strong, humble warrior.
Inhale, we rise.
Exhale, humble warrior.
Hold here for one breath, strong legs.
And then we rise up.
Release the fingertips, warrior one.
And then slowly we'll take it back down.
Right palm comes to the earth here, as we open the left arm into a twist.
Hug that left knee in towards the midline.
Lower that back knee if you need to.
Three of these, moving with the breath.
On your third one, hold there for one breath cycle, in and out.
On an exhale, release back to center, and lower that back knee, pulling the left hip
crease back this time.
We find that wave in the spine, three of these.
So again, if you're new to practice, be patient.
Slowly you'll bring an essence to your vinyasa, flow to your Hatha yoga practice that is uniquely
you.
It's all about discovery.
Shift your weight forward, come back to your lunge.
Then we'll rock that back foot up to meet the front, forward fold.
Inhale, halfway lift.
Exhale, bow.
Nice.
Inhale, utkatasana, bend the knees generously.
Sink the hips down low.
Interlace the fingertips this time behind the back.

Exhale, belly to the thighs.
Inhale, open your heart, knuckles down.
Exhale, fold.
Inhale, rise all the way up, straight legs, slight back bend here if it feels good, and
exhale to mountain.
Take a deep breath in.
Exhale out through the mouth.
Great.
Then we'll walk it back to center for our second heart pumping series.
Bring the hands to the waistline.
Bend your knees generously.
Step the right foot out to your squat, then to the left, and find a soft knee here, a
little bit of a bounce.
Another option here is to come into Charlie's Angels, interlacing the fingertips in front,
index finger pointing out.
Smile.
Make sure those knees aren't going past the toes but rather in line with the toes.
Head over heart, heart over pelvis here as we breathe deep.
Keep it going.
And then we'll reel it back to center.
Jumping jacks.
I would have never thought that I would put jumping jacks into a Yoga with Adriene sequence.
But when I was exploring what to do for my power yoga, I thought there's nothing better
to get the heart rate up than a good, old fashioned jumping jack.
We don't need any equipment or anything fancy, and it inspires a childlike quality, at least
for me.
Bring it back to center, and here we go, back to the squats.
Remember you can keep the hands on the waistline or send them out in front, interlacing the
fingertips, index fingers pointing forward.
When the going gets tough, I say shine a little light.
So when the legs start to burn, pay attention to your alignments, smile, enjoy the silliness,
and we'll bring it back to center.
Inhale, reach it all the way up.
Exhale, release.
Great.
Bring the hands to the waistline again, and then we'll walk it back to the front of the
mat.
Great.
Hit the refresh button, my friends.
Find soft knees as you inhale.
Reach it up.
Exhale, diving forward.
Inhale, halfway lift, exhale bow.
Step or hop it back to plank, strong, beautiful body.
Chaturanga or chaturanga practice.
Choose your own vinyasa here.
Send it to downward facing dog.
Great.
Lift the right leg up into you lunge.
Pivot on the back foot.
Once again, inhale, rise up, warrior one.
And interlace the fingertips behind the back.
Again, we open the chest.
Come to humble warrior as you release, crown of the head down to the earth.
Inhale, rise up.
Exhale, float it down.
Strong back leg as we rise.
Exhale, fold.
Inhale, we rise up.
Reaching the arms up, palms come together as we pivot on that back foot, come into high
lunge.
Moving into a deep twist here, nice detoxifying twist, moving to the right.
You can lower that back knee here if you want.
Then we'll gently release.
Lift the right leg up, shift your weight forward, and vinyasa.
So I'm keeping my right leg up here just for a little fun, something fun to work towards,
and experiment with, or skip it.
We'll meet in downward dog.
Lift the left leg up into your lunge.
Pivot on the back foot.
Deep breath in as we reach it up, warrior one.
Then release the fingertips to once again interlace behind the tail.
Humble warrior flow, we inhale, exhale, bow forward.
Strong legs as we inhale, rise up.
Finding a bit of a wave in the spine now, keep the back legs strong.
Front knee over front ankle.
Inhale, lift up, and exhale, fold.
Inhale, we rise up.
Then we release the fingertips all the way up, palms together at the heart as you pivot
on that back foot and move into your twist.
Spike that right heel towards the back edge of your mat.
Breathe.
Gently release back to center.
Plant the palms.
And give it a try if you want.
Send that left leg all the way up, Hug the elbows into the side body.
Lower down.
And then we then we inhale, cobra.
Exhale, release.
Curl the toes under.
Press it up strong.
Then send it back, downward facing dog.
Awesome.
Take a nice deep breath in through the nose, and out through the mouth.
Bend the knees.
Hop the feet up towards the front edge.
Inhale, halfway lift, exhale, release.
Bring the feet together, keeping a little space between the heels as you bend the knees
and reach the fingertips up, utkatasana.
Only one breath here as we inhale in.
Exhale, straighten the legs, slight back bend.
Release back to mountain.
And then we'll step back to the center of our mat.
Hands on the waist or out in front, we soften the knees, and jump into our squats.
To the right, to the left, nice steady rhythm here.
Move with your breath.
Make it work.
Now as your practice begins to unfold, you might begin to speed your squats up.
But if we're just now diving into this, I say keep it nice and steady.
You always have options.
When you feel satisfied, bring it back to center, and here we go.
Jump!
Have fun with it.
Join my yoga dork parade.
Happy, healthy heart here.
Keep it moving.
And then we'll release.
Good job.
Shake it off.
All right, now we're going to step the legs nice and wide.
Turn the two big toes in slightly.
Then we'll reach the fingertips forward, dropping the right arm underneath the left as they
come to wrap around in eagle arms.
Inhale, reach up, exhale, forward fold.
Inhale, press into the outer edges of the feet as you reach all the way back up, elbows
lift.
And exhale again, fold.
Full body experience here as we inhale, rise up, and exhale, fold.
Inhale, we rise, and gently unravelling arms here, bring hands to the waistline now, as
you hop the feet in.
So just a little bit wider than hip width apart now, we're going to turn the toes out
and take the opposite arm under.
So it's the left arm goes under as we clasp the palms or the wrists.
If the palms don't come together, no biggie.
Inhale, reach up, exhale, deep squat.
Inhale, up, exhale, goddess flow.
So even if you're a dude, you can tap into your goddess energy here.
Technically, we're just tapping into our god energy, coming into our power.
As we sink down into a squat now, we'll hold, reaching fingertips, elbows up.
Gently look to your right.
Then bring it back to center.
Look to your left, then back to center.
Awesome, my friends.
Inhale, straighten the legs, unravel the arms, and bring the palms together at your heart.
Bend the knees deep.
Slowly lower the sit bones down.
We're going to walk the heels in a little bit here, come into a froggy pose, dropping
the center to the earth.
And then you might stay with the heels lifted or you might begin to drop the heels.
And if you do that, you might draw the palms together at the heart.
Fingertips can be on the mat for stability.
Again, we always have lots of options.
Take care of your body.
Connect to your breath.
Maybe you draw the chin to the chest.
Maybe you reach the fingertips forward, breathing into the back body here.
Maybe we gently walk the fingertips to the left.
Maybe we crawl the fingertips to the right.
Awesome.
Wherever you are, release it back to center, and slowly we'll rise up.
Forward fold.
Then make your way to the front edge of your mat and begin to sway a little left to right.
Relax the head and neck.
Then we'll come to center and inhale.
Lift to flat back once again.

Inhale in, exhale, make it a good one, lion's breath, tongue out.
Super fierce, super awesome, as we draw the feet together back at center.
Great.
Moving into dancer, or preparation for dancer.
We'll interlace the fingertips and catch the right knee.
Press away from your standing leg, so don't collapse into that left foot, but press away
as you slide your right hand to your right ankle.
Left thumb comes to the sternum and we can just stay here, focusing on one point or we
can switch the hand to grab the arch of that right foot, as we kick the right toes up,
lifting the right knee up towards the sky.
Left fingertips can come forward as we find extension through the crown, and lift up through
the center channel.
Again, think about lifting the right toes up and kicking it away.
Then slowly slide it back.
Interlace fingertips around the knees.
Squeeze it in.
Then we'll draw the hands to the waistline as you kick the right heel out and slide it
back to mountain.
Awesome.
Let's try the same thing on the other side.
Catching the left knee here, taking your time as you move into dancer.
Sliding the left hand down to the left ankle whenever you're ready.
Right hand comes to the heart.
Lift your sternum to your thumb.
Kicking left toes back this time, lifting the left knee.

Work at your own pace.
Inhale in.
Kick that left foot up and back.
On an exhale, smile and gently release.

Lift your heart.
Curl the back toes under, and we'll draw that left knee underneath the right as we come

Check in with neck, the shoulders.
Let go of any stress or tension.
Now we'll cross the right ankle over to the left, dive forward.
Come to all fours.
Then send it up to downward facing dog.
Now we have a little optional handstand play.
So we can start with playing with donkey kicks, bringing the toes together, keeping the gaze
down, kicking the legs up.
This is about exploration, not about doing handstand.
It's about developing strength and coming into your power.
We can also step one foot up and kick one leg up at time.
So you have donkey kicks, or this kick up option.
You can also take it to a wall here.
And each time we come to this point in the practice, you can experiment with something
a little different.
It's fun to watch it grow.
And when you feel satisfied, you can make your way back down to all fours, and take
a rest in child's pose.
Then tuck your chin into your chest.
Slowly roll it up.
Inhale in and exhale, lion's breath, tongue out.

I hope you're feeling good.
Drink lots of water, okay?
Make sure you drink lots of water.
Rinse your face.
And if you're interested in the entire package, Empower, again, it's my version of power yoga.
I think it's really sweet.
I think it's the real deal, if you ask me.
It's a great workout, cardio, strengthening, toning, really great for the physical body,
but really also we touch on kind of the bigger picture, transformation through emotional
exploration.
I think that one of the biggest selling points of Empower is that it comes with the cool
access to this awesome online community that's so inspiring, really helps people to get on
the mat.
We've had lots of success stories with that.
But really, truly I've met so many great friends who inspire me to get on my mat, and keep
making these videos.
So you get that.
You also get a daily email.
You also get a downloadable pdf which helps guide you.
We have supplemental videos that focus on the booty, and your core, your abdominals.
It's really awesome.
And we shot it here in Texas in the summer, so it's got a lot of heat and a lot of love.
I'm really proud of it.
So if you're interested in that, head on over findwhatfeelsgood.com.
I'll make sure the link is below for you so you can join the Empower community and get
in shape, find what feels good.
I'll see you next week.
Thank you so much.
Free videos every Wednesday.
Love you, guys.
Take good care.
Namaste.
