@duddymovement‘s mobility challenge asks the question: can you currently get down to the floor and back up again with ease?

5 years ago, I wouldn’t have succeeded. But starting small and practicing yoga consistently has brought me here.

Wherever you are in your journey, it’s not too late to start down a different road ✨💛

1️⃣ Sound up! - the audio is too cute 😂
2️⃣ One of my favorite things about yoga is that it meets you where you are. Not feeling well? Try a restorative yoga. Treat yourself with grace 💛

Without the assistance of your arms, your body relies primarily on the strength of its core to achieve this flow. Are you up for the challenge? Tag me if you try!

Shoulder Stand and Plow Pose accomplish a lot: boosting circulation and thyroid function, opening the hips, lengthening the spine, strengthening the core, soothing the mind, and more! How many of these variations can you do? 🧘‍♀️✨
