episode Morning Yoga for Twists, Lunges & Dharma | Daily Flow with James Donegan cover

Beskrivelse

A steady 10-minute morning yoga practice focused on twists, grounding, and moving into the day with honesty, integrity, and calm. Today’s flow builds gradually through forward folds, plank work, kneeling twists, lunges, Warrior I, and revolved triangle pose — all linked together with breath and deliberate pacing. We close with a reflection on dharma, purpose, and what it means to show up fully in this moment instead of worrying about some abstract “life purpose.” Today’s YouTube practice: https://youtube.com/live/Bgiog_MK9Uk [https://youtube.com/live/Bgiog_MK9Uk] Timestamps: 00:00 Audio welcome + grounding intention 00:40 Standing warm-up + shoulder opening 01:25 Forward folds + plank flow 01:58 Kneeling twist + backbend 02:37 Down dog split + standing transitions 03:18 Twisting kneeling sequence second side 04:42 High lunge twist + chest opening 06:05 Revolved lunge second side 07:15 Warrior I + revolved triangle 08:20 Warrior I + revolved triangle second side 09:08 Dharma oracle card reflection 10:44 Closing + Namaste ✨ Practice live every weekday at 8 a.m. ET on YouTube: https://youtube.com/@dailyflowyoga [https://youtube.com/@dailyflowyoga] 🌿 Daily Flow Links: https://linktr.ee/dailyflowyoga [https://linktr.ee/dailyflowyoga]

episode Ujjayi Breath for Turning Inward cover

Ujjayi Breath for Turning Inward

Today’s 10-minute morning practice uses ujjayi breath, mindful movement, and simple breath-led shapes to help you turn inward before the pressure and pace of the day take over. We begin with seated breath awareness, then move through cat-cow, downward dog, chair pose, warrior one, pyramid pose, cobra, and a closing card pull on compassion. If you’re listening audio-only, don’t worry about doing it “right.” Just move and breathe in a way that feels honest.

Wake Up, Open Up, and Find Balance

Today’s 10-minute practice is a simple morning reset: seated grounding, twists, forward folds, crescent lunges, gentle warrior flow, thread-the-needle, butterfly fold, boat pose, and malasana. It’s less about making impressive shapes and more about waking up honestly — noticing what feels tight, what feels open, and where your body asks you to stop.
