In honor of National Yoga Month and our recent visit to New York City with the Garnet Hill Mobile Boutique, we partnered with Deborah Langley, Creative Director of New York City’s Laughing Lotus Yoga Studio, to bring you four energizing yoga poses you can practice every morning in the comfort of your own home. No props needed – just you and maybe some of our activewear favorites.
Try these simple movements to declutter the mind and introduce a peaceful energy to your day.
Deborah’s Tip: Embrace the sweetness of the morning. Bring a swing into the pose by alternating stepping one foot back into a curtsy on the exhale.
Deborah’s Tip: Add some strength postures to your morning flow. Knees can stay bent to discourage arching of the upper back. Straighten your legs, while still tucking your tailbone.
Deborah’s Tip: There is no yoga pose worth continuing if you can’t breathe easily. This repetition of movement is excellent for encouraging proper digestion and breath.
Deborah’s Tip: Be kind to your body from one shape to the next. Extend your arms overhead to encourage an even sweeter flow of breath.
And because it’s National Yoga Month, Laughing Lotus is giving Garnet Hill customers an exclusive gift: CLICK HERE and use the code GARNETHILL to redeem 30 days FREE access to Laughing Lotus online classes!
As Deborah always says,
“Any yoga is better than no yoga!”
THANK YOU FOR THIS LOVELY TREAT. I HAVE BEEN THINKING ABOUT EMBRACING YOGA RECENTLY AND THIS JUST MADE THE DECISION EASIER. VERY NICE BONUS TO SHOPPING AT GARNET HILL. I LOVE EVERYTHING I HAVE EVER PURCHASED FROM YOU BY THE WAY.
This is delightful. Even an 80 yr old can do these. Yoga does work…..
