This cleansing, heart-opening, and rejuvenating practice will help you open up the energetic channels for creative expression just in time for Leo season! I start with a card reading from the Ocean Dreams oracle, and then we begin our practice in child’s pose with dynamic flows, twists, and a wide and spacious downward dog. Create a beautiful connection between the lower and upper chakras with a flow of dragon lunge, hip circles, gate and camel variations, three-legged dog, heart-opening lunge, and triangle. End with a backbend of your choice and some reclined hip openers and twists.
Level 1/2 flow
Benefits: regeneration, heart-opening, cleansing, detoxing, making space, creative expression, confidence, full-body expansion, hips and thighs, shoulders and upper back, liver flush

Embodiment practice: August 1 (Lughnasadh, Lammas, or the first harvest) is a good day to reset habits, begin new routines, and make choices to align with your essence. What needs to be cleared/recalibrated/released before then? How can you choose your creative unique expression in your work and interactions?
