Welcome to salamander yoga oh hi salamander no yoga pants today
that's okay let's start sitting cross-legged on the floor with your hands on your belly
imagine that there's a big chocolate cupcake floating above you with strawberry icing
and sprinkles let's reach up and try and get that cupcake you got it now bring it
down that looks good enough to eat but wait we are first going to have to blow that candle out
so take a deep breath in and flow oh hmm let's try and blow harder ready breathe in and low
oh wow this time let's try blowing softly take a slow breath in and blow out yes finally it's time
to eat the cupcake open your mouth wide and say delicious now it's time to move your body
first let's get on our feet and crouch make yourself into a small ball squeeze together
you are like a tiny seed in the ground but hey someone is watering you and you start to grow
your body is growing up like a plant and your arms start to reach for the sky up and out and all the
way up doesn't that feel good let's stay here and enjoy life as a plant uh-oh is that wind yes
it's windy and you are swaying back and forth back and forth you're wobbly let's try and make
ourselves stronger against the wind spread your legs further apart and slowly move your arms down
and stretch them out to the side you can do it let's stay in this strong position and breathe
oh there's some flying mustaches approaching we should let them go by slowly bend forward at
the waist keep your feet where they are your legs straight as you reach for the ground the moustaches
have gone by we can raise ourselves back up to how we were oh the moustaches are coming back the
other way let's not bother them bend forward again and reach for the ground phew you can go back up
okay feet closer together let's try a squat bend your knees and slowly lower your body as
far as you can without your bottom touching the ground and hold hey is that a flamingo above you
i wonder if it likes high fives take one hand and reach up hold it out no high five bring that
hand down and try with the other hand reaching up ah maybe no high fives from flamingo today
next we can sit right down bring your feet towards you until they are touching together
in front of you sit up straight and take a deep breath can you move just your knees up
and down like this hey that looks just how that butterfly on Kevin's forehead is moving
Kevin okay now let's put our legs out straight again and lean our bodies back bring those legs up
off the ground and bring your hands out too stretch your legs and your hands out while leaning
back and hold hold do you know what you are a boat this is a balance pose and it's okay if you feel
wobbly especially now because the wind has come back and it's trying to blow you over try and
hold on hold on oh no the wind flipped you right over and you're laying on your front it's okay
you're really tired but you survive the wind we are gonna try and slowly get up bring your hands
next to your chest palms down and push into the floor and your head and chest start to raise up ah
it's just too hard let's slowly go back down we can try again push your head and chest
up your legs are still on the ground you're getting higher higher and oh i think we're
still not ready to get up so we'll go back down again pushing into the floor as you raise up and
up and up but you know what i got a better idea let's lower our bodies roll over and look up
ah breathe in and out in and out let's rest and relax as we focus on breathing softly [Music]
