A gentle 17-minute yoga flow with stretches and deep breaths to ease an overwhelmed or tired mind, with an optional blanket.
Adriene opens with gentle stretches and deep breaths, then slowly picks up the energy in a soft, flowing practice built around self-compassion. It is aimed at days when you feel overwhelmed, heavy-hearted or fatigued, and a blanket, towel or bolster is welcome if you have one. The practice runs about 17 minutes.
