Sweat, Stretch Out, and Get Energized With 7 Wake-Me-Up Yoga Practices For Mornings

Take your time through this gentle flow with YouTube yogi Adriene Mischler. It's all about connecting to your breath and waking your body up slowly and effectively.

This flow does double duty: it's relaxing enough to do in the morning or at night, whenever you have time. Get ready for lots of long stretch-and-holds that loosen and energize your muscles.

Enjoy this 10-minute yoga stretch session, meant to rejuvenate your body and work out any kinks or sore spots from a long night of sleep.

If you have 10 minutes, you have time for this morning practice by Yoga With Adriene. It's short, but it doesn't feel rushed as you move through simple twists and familiar positions like Child's Pose and Downward-Facing Dog.

One of my personal favourites, this gorgeous Boho Beautiful practice is a little more of a workout, sneaking in core exercises around relaxing stretch sequences.

You start this practice with a long hold in Child's Pose, aka exactly what my sleepy body wants to do when it first gets out of bed. The rest of the stretches are basic but effective, making this quick flow a good choice for beginners.

This 14-minute flow starts with a side stretch that opens up your chest and abdominals, then goes into back stretches like Cat-Cow and lots of hip-openers.
