Hey! This 30 minute yoga flow will stretch into the hips, hams, and work on strengthening the muscles in the back body. Our scripture today comes from the book of Jonah, chapter 2, and our breath prayer comes from this as well. This scripture is all about finding hope in God and seeing that the character of God is merciful, faithful, and loving. We'll save time to selah at the end - that time to rest, reflect, and respond.

Breath prayer: Inhale, "I will call to the Lord"; Exhale, "My plea will be heard"

Scripture:
Then Jonah prayed to the Lord his God from inside the fish. He said,

“I cried out to the Lord in my great trouble,
and he answered me.
I called to you from the land of the dead,[b]
and Lord, you heard me!
3 You threw me into the ocean depths,
and I sank down to the heart of the sea.
The mighty waters engulfed me;
I was buried beneath your wild and stormy waves.
4 Then I said, ‘O Lord, you have driven me from your presence.
Yet I will look once more toward your holy Temple.’

5 “I sank beneath the waves,
and the waters closed over me.
Seaweed wrapped itself around my head.
6 I sank down to the very roots of the mountains.
I was imprisoned in the earth,
whose gates lock shut forever.
But you, O Lord my God,
snatched me from the jaws of death!
7 As my life was slipping away,
I remembered the Lord.
And my earnest prayer went out to you
in your holy Temple.
8 Those who worship false gods
turn their backs on all God’s mercies.
9 But I will offer sacrifices to you with songs of praise,
and I will fulfill all my vows.
For my salvation comes from the Lord alone.”

10 Then the Lord ordered the fish to spit Jonah out onto the dry land.

A gentle yoga flow for when you're tired! I pray that this is a healing flow where you'll find renewal through moving your body and focusing your mind on Jesus. Our scripture comes from Matthew 11:28 (NLT) 28-30 “Then Jesus said, “Come to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you. Let me teach you, because I am humble and gentle at heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy to bear, and the burden I give you is light.”

Inhale: Jesus, you are my strength; Exhale: Teach me your ways

*Mindfulness Highlight: Envision Jesus beside you, helping you, as you move throughout your day.

Been busy this week painting these little scriptures and pictures as Easter gifts! It was a wonderful idea I took from a Mom group .church
Happy Easter friends!!

This 20 minute Easter stretch and flow is a gentle whole body stretch that is beginner friendly. I’m so excited you’re joining me as we move our bodies and focus our minds on Jesus! We’ll answer the question, “What is Easter?” and incorporate a breath prayer from Jesus’ own words.

Did you know that while Jesus lived, he fulfilled over 300 prophecies?

When he was put on the cross, on Good Friday, all the world’s sins were placed on Him. By doing this he made us right with God, allowing God’s Holy Spirit to live within all who believe in Jesus as their savior.

After Jesus died, he was placed in a guarded tomb. 3 days later, Jesus' friends came to the tomb and saw the stone covering the entrance had been rolled away. 2 angels appeared and said, “Why do you look for the living among the dead? He is not here; he has risen!” That was when the first Easter came.

The bible tells us that while Jesus was on the cross, his final words were, “Father, into your hands I commit my Spirit” (Luke 23:46). This is such a beautiful, trusting surrender and model that we are to trust our whole being to God the father. So our Breath Prayer for this practice will be Jesus’ own words:
Inhale: Father, into your hands;
Exhale: I commit my Spirit.

Happy Easter!!

New video up! Our poses will wake up the side and back body and work into strengthening the hips. Today we’ll focus on the theme of Inspiration. We’ll read through 2 Corinthians 4:16​-18, which says this, “So we do not lose heart. Though our outer self is wasting away, our inner self is being renewed day by day. For this light momentary affliction is preparing for us an eternal weight of glory beyond all comparison, as we look not to the things that are seen but to the things that are unseen.”

Mindfulness questions for reflection
What beauty can you find in your daily routines? God is an artist. Can you see it?
In what ways can you vary what you do to experience life more fully?
How can you lean into the Lord for inspiration? Is it taking a walk to marvel at nature, is it reading scripture, praying, meditating, or worshiping? Taking time to selah?

Breath Prayer:
Inhale: I will not lose heart; Exhale: Jesus renews me
OR
Inhale: Lord, I look to you for inspiration; Exhale: Lead me to the glory of what is yet unseen

*Mindfulness Highlight: Seek to look past your immediate circumstances.

NEW 20 Minute Flow Up! This is beginner friendly. We’ll stretch into the hips, side body, and hamstrings. This Desires of Your Heart Flow is really about noticing if your desires align with the desires God has for your life. The scripture focus for today comes from Psalm 20:4-5. The NIV version reads this way, “May he give you the desire of your heart and make all your plans succeed. May we shout for joy over your victory and lift up our banners in the name of our God. May the Lord grant all your requests.”
