Hi,
Welcome to Just King Yoga.
My name is Jessica.
This is where human design and yoga collide.
Yoga is a great way to learn how to embody.
Human design.
This week the sun is transiting through gate 45.
Gate 45 is The Gatherer.
It's about sharing what you know and what you have with your community.
The earth is in gate 26 so we are grounded in gate 26 as we move through the energy of gate 45.
Gate 26 is about integrity.
So essentially this week we are working with building community.
Being a leader.
But being very careful about our integrity as we move through.
This transit.
This sequence is short and sweet.
Grab a couple yoga blocks.
We're going to start this one in child's pose.
Big toes touch,
Knees wide on the mat,
Stretch your fingertips out in front of you.
Just take some nice,
Smooth,
Steady breaths.
Walk your fingertips over to the right side of your mat.
Option to put your left hand on top of your right so you can get a little bit more out of the stretch.
Just breathe into the left lung and soften into the left hip crease.
Come on back to center,
Take a breath in the center.
Walk your fingertips over to the left,
Maybe put your right hand on top of your left.
Just notice the right lung and soften into the right hip crease.
Come on,
Back to center.
Speak your way up to your tabletop position,
Stack the shoulders.
Over the rest,
The hips,
Over the knees.
Maybe sway the hips side to side for a moment.
We'll take a couple cat cows and I'll drop the belly,
Lift the gaze.
Exhale,
Chin to chest,
Round the spine,
Tuck the pelvis.
Again,
Soft elbows and he'll drop the belly.
Spread the sit bone.
Exhale chin to chest,
Round the spine.
One more time,
Inhale.
And exhale.
Downward facing dog,
Send those hips up nice and high.
Take a little petal of the feet,
Bend one leg and then the other.
Nod the head yes and no.
Then find some stillness.
Press the chest closer to the thighs.
A flat back is more important than straight legs.
So broaden your upper back.
Push into your hands and your feet.
I'll offer you this contemplation for gate 45.
Are you willing?
To share your resources.
To share your knowledge,
Your gift.
With others in your community.
Can you do it with integrity?
Take a big inhale breath.
Big open mouth exhale,
Let it go.
Look at your hands.
Take 10 tiny steps to the front of your mat.
Find your ragdoll,
Put your hands in your elbow creases,
Let the head hang heavy.
Opposite forearm on top.
Let the head be even heavier.
Release the hands down to dangle.
Push into your feet,
Roll the body.
Up to standing,
Stack one vertebrae on the next at a time.
Take some shoulder rolls when you get to the top.
Take your shoulder rolls the opposite direction.
Come on back to center.
If you took your feet wider,
Step them back to hip width apart.
Inhale the arms up and overhead,
Big breath,
Reach up.
Exhale,
Seal the hands into the heart.
Place your right hand onto your heart.
And just let your left hand dangle down by your side.
Let's take a moment to Recognize.
The resources that you have.
Maybe it's something physical.
Maybe it's a story.
Maybe it's knowledge that you need to share.
Taken in hell breath.
On your exhale,
Take your right hand and reach it back as you turn.
Slightly to the right,
Almost like you're sharing your gifts.
And then come back to center,
Put your right hand back on your heart.
We'll do that with the left hand.
Put the left hand on top of your right hand.
Take a breath,
Fill up,
Notice your resources,
Your gifts.
On your exhale,
