🌞 Sunrise Salutations

Welcome to your morning moment of calm. Whether you’re a yoga veteran or someone who thinks “Sun Salutation” is a juice flavor, this week’s edition is here to help you rise, stretch, and shine—even if your soul doesn’t wake up until 10am.

🧘‍♀️ Feature: How to Start Your Day Like a Yogi (Even If You’re Not a Morning Person)

If your idea of mindfulness is mindlessly scrolling TikTok before your alarm even goes off, you’re not alone. But with just a few intentional tweaks, you can bring a little yogic wisdom into your mornings—no Sanskrit required.

Start with breathwork 😮‍💨—just 3 minutes of slow, deep breathing can lower stress hormones and bring clarity. Then, ease into a gentle Sun Salutation 🌅 to wake up your spine and shake off sleep stiffness. Not ready to unroll your mat? Stretch in bed. Seriously.

Finish with warm lemon water 🍋, a simple journal entry, or a quiet moment on your balcony. The goal isn’t to become a yogi overnight—it’s to start your day with a little more peace and a little less panic.

Bottom line: You don’t need to rise with the sun to salute it. Just a few mindful minutes can shift your whole day.

🧘 Pose of the Week: Tadasana (Mountain Pose)

The foundation of all standing poses—and your morning energy.
Stand tall with feet together, arms by your sides, palms forward. Root down through your feet, lengthen through the crown of your head, and breathe deeply.

🌄 Why it rocks: Improves posture, boosts confidence, and instantly centers your mind.
