A tender 25-minute yoga flow for seasonal low mood and low energy, using movement and mindfulness to restore a sense of balance.
Adriene designed this practice to guide you back to the light in dark times. Seasonal Affective Disorder can bring low energy and mood shifts as the seasons change, and this tender flow uses movement and mindfulness to help restore a sense of balance. It is a warm, comforting session of about 25 minutes, meant for a cold, dark winter or any heavy stretch.
Equipment setup
Who Is It For?
Anyone, beginners included, who feels low on energy or mood as the seasons change and wants a warm, comforting yoga flow.
Who Is It Not For?
Not a substitute for professional care, and not the one for an intense workout: this is a tender, gentle flow.
Key Benefits
Offers comfort and a sense of balance through gentle movement and mindfulness when energy and mood dip with the season.
Things to Keep in Mind
Yoga can support but not replace treatment: if low mood persists, talk to your doctor, and move gently within your range.
