If you're missing your yoga studio like me, I created this 45-minute flow you can do at home. It has almost 50 different poses to stretch and strengthen your entire body. You'll do classic poses like Warrior 1 and Warrior 3, challenging poses like Crow and Intense East, core-carving poses like Boat and Dolphin Plank, and relaxing poses like Pigeon and Happy Baby.
When you hold each pose for five breaths (about 30 seconds), this sequence should take you 45 minutes, not including Savasana — I recommend making sure you leave at least five to 10 full minutes for that! Feel free to stay longer in poses or make modifications depending on your body's needs. Remember that this is your time to breathe and flow. Welcome whatever thoughts and emotions come up for you as you move, and enjoy the gift of yoga you're giving to yourself.
