Yoga with Cha Wilde

Hi! My name is Cha Wilde and I will be guiding you through a practice designed to help you focus on your sensations, relax, and find joy in the present moment. We'll flow through stretches, twists, and various poses like staff pose, butterfly pose, forward folds, and child's pose. Throughout the session, we’ll emphasize mindfulness, welcoming your thoughts and feelings, and discovering the beauty in each experience. We’ll finish with a closing meditation, and I’ll send you my well wishes. Introduction We begin with an opening sequence of poses and stretches. Start in staff pose, point and flex your feet, engage your leg muscles, and intentionally shake your body. The goal is to bring awareness to your legs and loosen up your body. 00:01:49 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bp9A-dX-xPc&t=109s] -- Contrasting Energies Now, let’s explore contrasting energies. First, bring in flow, softness, and relaxation with gentle wiggling and shaking. Then, shift to a more structured approach: lengthen your spine, engage your core, and find a focused gaze. 00:03:03 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bp9A-dX-xPc&t=183s] -- Forward Fold and Turtle Pose Move into a forward fold, hinging at the hips and reaching towards the floor with your chest. Feel the stretch in your hips and the lengthening of your torso. Transition into a rounded spine position, like a 'little turtle,' and welcome any sensations or thoughts that arise, embracing them without judgment. 00:05:34 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bp9A-dX-xPc&t=334s] -- Twists and Child’s Pose Next, let’s do some gentle twists to the right and left. Follow with child’s pose, spreading your fingers wide, enjoying the present moment, and finding something beautiful to focus on. 00:07:42 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bp9A-dX-xPc&t=462s] -- Closing Sequence For the closing sequence, take a seated position with your hands in prayer behind your head. Breathe into your armpits and the back of your rib cage. Return to a seated position, feeling the power in your core and softening your jaw. We’ll end with a closing meditation. I’ll send you my gratitude and well wishes as we conclude today’s session. ------------------------ ✨ Welcome to Cha Wilde’s YouTube channel dedicated to healing.

Hello! I’m Cha Wilde. In this yoga session, and we’re focusing on the throat chakra. We’ll move through a series of poses and breathing exercises designed to open, stretch, and stimulate the throat area. Our practice will include child’s pose, cat-cow, downward dog, neck stretches, humming, chanting, and lion’s breath. The goal is to promote balanced energy flow, enhance self-expression, and deepen our listening through movement and sound vibrations. Pay attention to the sensations in your throat and strive for a balance between speaking and receiving. We’ll finish with shoulder stand, plow pose, and fish pose to explore the effects of compressing and releasing the throat chakra. 00:00:19 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h5qv-go5f0I&t=19s] -- Introduction and Child’s Pose Welcome, everyone. I’m Cha Wilde, and today we’ll focus on the throat chakra. We’ll start in child’s pose. Feel the sensations in your throat, neck, and spine as you settle into this pose. Adjust as needed, knowing that our physical movements deeply impact our energy flow. 00:03:25 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h5qv-go5f0I&t=205s] -- Melting Heart Pose and Cat-Cow Let’s move into melting heart pose to stretch the neck and throat further. Notice how deep listening supports a balanced throat chakra. Next, we’ll transition into cat-cow pose, using breath and movement to engage your entire body. 00:08:11 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h5qv-go5f0I&t=491s] -- Downward Dog and Neck Stretches In downward dog, let gravity help release tension in your neck and throat. I’ll guide you through neck stretches, applying pressure from different angles to ease tension and encourage energy flow. 00:14:52 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h5qv-go5f0I&t=892s] -- Humming and Chanting Now, we’ll explore humming and chanting exercises to stimulate the throat chakra with sound vibrations. This practice connects with the throat chakra’s role in self-expression and the element of ether. 00:19:20 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h5qv-go5f0I&t=1160s] -- Lion’s Breath Let’s practice lion’s breath, encouraging you to let go of inhibitions and make expressive sounds. This cathartic exercise connects to primal expression and helps release blockages. 00:26:15 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h5qv-go5f0I&t=1575s] -- Shoulder Stand, Plow Pose, and Fish Pose We’ll move into shoulder stand and plow pose, compressing the throat chakra to build energy. Transitioning to fish pose will open the throat chakra, allowing the energy to flow freely. Observe the shift in energy as we release and open the throat chakra. 00:29:59 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h5qv-go5f0I&t=1799s] -- Closing and Reflection We’ll conclude with shavasana, where you can relax and reflect. Listen to your body’s messages and trust your intuition about communication, speaking from a place of deep listening and balance. ------------------------ ✨ Welcome to Cha Wilde’s YouTube channel dedicated to healing.

This video was filmed at the Sunrise Circle Amphitheater near Bolder, Colorado in 2021. Hey, it’s Cha Wilde, and we are on top of a mountain today! Let’s soak in this beautiful connection between the earth beneath us and the sky above while we move through today’s practice. Introduction and Grounding We’re sitting here, feeling the stability of the mountain, grounding into the earth, and opening up to the heavens above. Let’s start by sitting in a meditation seat, feeling our roots extending deep into the ground, finding that connection between stability and freedom. 00:00:52 - Exploring the Chakras We’re going to journey through the chakras today, starting at the root and moving all the way up. As we move, embody the elements—feel the earth in your root, the water flowing in your sacral, the fire lighting up your solar plexus, and the air moving through your heart. Let the energy flow freely through each pose, each breath. 00:16:29 - Standing Poses and Balance Now, into standing poses: Mountain Pose, Tree Pose. Feel the strength in your core, the steadiness in your feet, but also allow for the playfulness of balance. Wobbling is okay! The balance isn’t static—it’s about constantly finding that center again. 00:24:25 - Floor Poses and Backbends We’ll move into floor poses now—Downward Dog, Forward Folds, and backbends. As we stretch, strengthen, and open the body, keep connecting with your breath and engaging your core. Embrace the intensity, feel the fire in your practice, and let go where you need to. 00:28:55 - Relaxation and Closing We’re wrapping up with Shavasana, lying still and taking in the sounds of nature around us. Feel the peace of being here, on top of this mountain. Reflect on how regular yoga leaves you feeling—loose, light, stretchy, present, and deeply relaxed. Stay here as long as you need, soaking in that mountain energy. Namaste! ------------------------ ✨ Welcome to Cha Wilde’s YouTube channel dedicated to healing.

Hey, it’s Cha Wilde, and I’m so excited to be outside with you today, feeling the sun, the breeze, and all the magic of nature while we move through this yoga session together. Introduction and Setting the Scene Today’s practice is a celebration of simplicity and success. For me, success is wearing a bikini, feeling the sand between my toes, and just being able to take care of myself. Let’s dive into that energy as we connect with our breath, our bodies, and the world around us. 00:01:51 - Warm-up and Vinyasa Flow Let’s start by warming up with some familiar moves—Downward Dog, Cat-Cow, and leg lifts. Feel your body wake up with each inhale and exhale, and connect with the earth beneath you and the sky above. 00:13:34 - Standing Poses and Balance Now, into our standing poses: Warrior, Triangle, Tree. Let’s play with balance—not just physically but mentally, too. It’s okay if you wobble; balance is dynamic and constantly shifting. 00:25:09 - Backbends and Stretches Moving into some deeper stretches and backbends like Camel and Locust Pose. This is where we find that beautiful dance between effort and ease. Listen to your body, push where it feels good, and relax where you need to. 00:31:29 - Inversions and Restorative Poses Let’s flip our perspective with Shoulder Stand and Plow Pose, followed by some restorative goodness—Supta Baddha Konasana and, of course, Shavasana. Find your comfort and let yourself melt into gratitude. 00:35:07 - Closing and Reflections We’ll end with a moment of gratitude. Take a second to reflect on the simple pleasures and blessings that make your day brighter. For me, after this session, it’s paddleboarding and preparing for a fun photo shoot. I hope you continue to enjoy your day in a way that lights you up. Namaste! ------------------------ ✨ Welcome to Cha Wilde’s YouTube channel dedicated to healing.

Hey, it’s Cha Wilde, and I’m here to guide you through today’s practice. Let’s move together, breathe, and unwind in this gentle, mindful session. 00:00:01 - Opening and Child's Pose Welcome, beautiful souls. Let’s start by settling into Child’s Pose. Breathe through your nose and listen to the sounds around you. Feel the air moving in and out of your body. We’re here to release stress and connect with ourselves. 00:01:11 - Cat-Cow and Downward Dog Now, let’s move into Cat-Cow. Exaggerate those movements—really arch and round your spine as you sync your breath with each motion. From here, we flow into Downward Dog. Spread your fingers wide, bend your knees if needed, and gaze between your feet. 00:03:35 - Side Bends and Twists Reach your arms overhead for a deep side bend. Feel that stretch as you lean to one side and then the other. Now, let’s twist—bring your opposite hand to your knee and focus on lengthening your spine as you relax deeper into the pose. 00:09:06 - Forward Fold and Butterfly Pose Time for a Forward Fold. Bring your upper body towards your thighs and notice how all the parts of your body connect. From there, we move into Butterfly Pose, bringing the feet together, knees wide, and hinging forward from the hips. Let yourself ease into the stretch. 00:14:51 - Shavasana and Closing Now, we enter Shavasana. Lie still, focusing on your breath. Let go of any lingering tension, and just be. When you’re ready, I’ll gently guide you back out of the pose. Namaste, my friends, and thank you for sharing this moment of peace with me. ------------------------ ✨ Welcome to Cha Wilde’s YouTube channel dedicated to healing.
