Happy Valentine’s Day! This week’s intention on Yoga Girl Daily synchronistically fits in with today’s holiday. It’s time to invite more pleasure and romance into our lives. It all comes down to treating ourselves the same way we would treat our lovers. Buy yourself flowers, take yourself on a date, book a massage. Rachel Brathen shares just how to do it. Tune in to begin.
Put all silly feelings aside today and go hug a tree! This is a practice that Rachel Brathen does every single day. In today’s episode of Yoga Girl Daily, she shares the benefits of it, the energies that different trees have, and just what they communicate back to you. Tune in to connect with nature in a unique way.
Mother Earth holds us, provides for us, and connects to us in a deeper way than we even know. For today’s gratitude practice, picture yourself in your favorite place in nature; a place you are so grateful exists. Maybe it’s where you walk your dogs, or where you sit outside for your meditation practice. Wherever it is, there is a connection between your heart and this earth.
Place your hands on your heart. What is it like to be you today? You don’t need much to honor how you are doing in this moment. Just an invitation from yourself to feel, to breathe, and to connect to your emotions. Your heart is always waiting right here for the next chance to be here now. Tune in to today’s meditation on Yoga Girl Daily to begin.
We are born with a deep connection to nature. It is so obvious when you watch children play outside: they climb trees, they play with flowers, they pick up sticks. In today’s episode of Yoga Girl Daily, you are going to revisit a moment of connection with nature from your childhood that transformed your life. What stands out? Tune in to begin.
There is an entire world outside your door that can change your state of mind. Time with nature improves your mental health, it helps you speak kinder to yourself, and it better equips you to handle the stresses of everyday life. In short, time outside should be non-negotiable! For this week’s intention, we are going to spend long stretches of time with nature.
For today’s self-care practice on Yoga Girl Daily, we are going to fully immerse ourselves in a sacred water experience in the bath or shower. Rachel Brathen will share how to set up your environment. Then, enjoy! Feel every drop of water hitting your skin and flowing down your body, take deep breaths, and connect with the liquid of life.
We tend to take water for granted. The majority of us have access to clean drinking water. We have showers and toilets in our house. But this is a privilege that 2.2 billion people in the world don’t have. In today’s episode of Yoga Girl Daily, we are going to consider every moment in a day that we use water. Those are all moments to be grateful for. Tune in to begin.
Water teaches us that we can always soften a little bit more. In today’s meditation practice on Yoga Girl Daily, Rachel Brathen guides you on a journey to total relaxation as you embody the element of water. By the end of the practice, you will feel your body merging with the earth beneath you. Edges will start to blur, tethers will start to break, and you will float away.
If there is one thing that water does - it flows! It doesn’t resist or hold on. In what area of your life are you sensing resistance? Where are you trapped in a pattern that doesn’t serve you anymore? Tune in to Yoga Girl Daily to invite more energy of water into your life, trust your intuition, and let it all go.
