Hi and welcome.
I'm Tylee.
I'm a yoga teacher and a whole body wellness professional.
I am here to guide you and hopefully support you in your healing and wellness journey.
So thank you for being here.
Thank you for taking the time to practice.
Today we're going to practice third eye chakra flow.
So chakras are energy wheels or energy centers that we have within our body.
We have seven directly connected to our spine.
And today we focus on the third eye chakra.
The third eye is located in the center of the forehead.
It's pretty mainstream nowadays,
I feel like.
So you may have heard about your intuition and the third eye chakra.
Practice yoga postures and making shapes with the body and exploring what feels good,
But really tapping in and trusting your intuition.
Opening channels within the body that help you to connect deeper to yourself will take plenty of moments to explore and reconnect to your breath,
Move at your own rhythm.
So.
.
.
I'm grateful you're here and thank you for showing up for yourself.
We'll get started in an extended child's pose whenever you're ready.
Please take a few moments to find any other movement that may feel good on your way.
I'm going to take a gentle twist,
Maybe for you,
To see the cat cow.
Or if you come into your tabletop position and notice that a couple of wiggles here would feel really good too.
Please take them.
I'm really excited to bring this flow into the home.
My home yoga practice is incredibly sacred to me and has.
.
.
Saved me time and time again.
So.
.
.
As you come into your extended child's pose,
Really allow yourself to get comfy here.
Settling with the breath So if you notice as you Maybe widen the knees.
You can gently walk the hips side to side.
Find a little more space.
Hands are welcome to even walk toward the outer edges of your mat.
Give the shoulders and neck a little room.
If the forehead or chest doesn't comfortably rest on the ground.
Make any adjustments there.
That may feel nice.
So if you have a block at home,
Awesome.
But it could be something nice and soft you have close by,
A pillow or a blanket.
Just to lift the earth up to you and your forehead is gently resting on something and is supported.
Allowing yourself to soften into your practice.
Gently close your eyes.
And breathe out all the way.
So empty,
Empty,
Empty your lungs.
Next breath,
In through your nose.
Big,
Full,
Cleansing breath in.
Fill the belly,
Fill the heart,
The chest.
Open mouth,
Exhale.
Allow the body to soften a little deeper.
We'll do a couple like that.
Big inhale in through your nose.
Fill the belly.
Peel the chest.
Open mouth exhale.
Relax the jaw.
Relax your shoulders.
Good one more just for you.
Big inhale.
Exhale,
Let something go.
Whatever it is today,
The to-do list.
A busy mind.
Gently settle back into the natural rhythm of your breath.
Not forcing.
Trying to change anything.
Zooming out a little bit to become more aware of the breath.
Notice how it feels as it travels in through your nose.
Down the back of your throat.
Into your belly,
Up through the heart,
The chest.
Throw again an owl,
Your nose,
Or your mouth.
You choose.
A couple moments to feel into the rhythm of your breath.
Relax your shoulders.
Allow the tailbone to get a little heavier.
Take one more full breath in.
Full breath out.
Chantly begin to rock your forehead from left to right.
Who is this the urge to rush?
You'll be gently rocking to one side on your inhale.
One side on your exhale.
Beginning to awaken,
The third eye chakra lives in the center of our forehead.
But it's also got a little home within our brain,
Deep within.
So trust,
Big inhale.
Big exhale.
Coming back to stillness for just one more moment.
And.
.
.
Set an intention for your practice.
Take a moment to maybe ask yourself,
How are you doing?
Allowing yourself to kind of soften into what is.
Notice if anything comes up.
And trust that this time is valuable.
So nothing came up here.
Anchor in your breath.
And practice has full magic.
Let's take one more breath in.
Big breath out.
Gently walk the hands toward the right side of your mat.
Into a gentle side body stretch so hands may walk off of the right side if you need a little more You're welcome to gently rock the hips.
From one side to the other.
And then eventually find stillness here,
Grounding through the left hip crease.
Maybe right hand stacks on top of,
Or left hand,
Excuse me,
Stacks on top of the right.
Big breaths into the left lung.
Feel your belly expand.
And exhale to soften.
One more big inhale.
And exhale,
Let it go.
One palm print at a time.
Slowly walk through center.
Notice the texture of your mat.
Maybe what's going on underneath the palm,
The fingertips.
As you move,
How the whole body is connected,
What's going on in the low back and the hips.
And making your way all the way over to the left side for a side body stretch.
Notice the difference in the two sides.
Crown through your right hip crease.
Reach through the right fingertips,
But gently,
Lovingly soften the right shoulder blade down the back body.
There's a lot going on.
Gentle tuck of the chin.
Most importantly is to breathe.
Big inhale.
Big exhale And cup them or stick with them.
One more big breath in.
Big breath out.
Really good.
And coming back to center.
Take your time.
And then pressing through both palms.
On your next inhale,
Hips lift up toward the right side of your mat.
So we're coming for a big hip circle.
Hips drop toward the front.
And on your exhale,
Hips go to the left.
And all the way back,
Extended Child's Pose.
And again,
Finding a rhythm with your breath,
Moving at your own pace.
Your exhale,
Shifting back,
Settling in.
You really notice what's going on underneath the hands.
Come back to that hand to earth connection.
Awakening the shoulders and hips the side body Heart.
And the breath.
And one more on the side.
Big inhale.
Big exhale.
Lots of pops and noise from me.
When you're ready,
Cycling in the other direction.
So inhale lifts you up toward the left,
Sweeping the hips forward.
We're going to exhale,
Send them back to the right and all the way back.
Notice as you get into the glutes,
The hips don't worry about what you look like focus on sensation here Maybe nice even to close the eyes or soften the gaze.
Find one more full cycle.
And out.
So good.
When you're ready,
We'll meet in a neutral tabletop position.
So coming to stack the bones,
Hands scooch up underneath the shoulders,
Knees underneath your hip points,
Palms flat,
Fingers are nice and wide.
So awareness in all of the knuckles,
Press all the knuckles down,
But especially first finger,
Middle finger,
And thumb.
Helps take some of the pressure out of your wrist as you press the ground away.
A little micro bend of the elbows,
So a little softness.
As you spiral,
The elbow creases forward.
Now,
Coming to bring awareness to the spine,
Keeping all of that you just did in the arms,
Gaze straight down at your mat.
Crown of the head reaches forward toward the top edge,
So intentionally find some length in the back of the neck.
And sitz bones reach back toward the back edge of your mat.
Intentionally find length in the low back.
From here,
Hold everything,
Hug the navel up and in.
So front body hugs up to meet the back body.
Supporting the low spine.
Now this may be enough.
Feeling a little tremble or shake.
Definitely building some heat.
Or we're going to add on just a little bit.
Curl the toes under.
Let's test this.
And hover your knees just an inch or two.
So pressing the ground away.
And once you're here,
Or even if knees are on the ground,
Try and squeeze your mat together.
Hands squeeze towards your feet.
Feet towards your hands.
Knees towards your hands.
Big inhale.
Strong exhale.

Downward facing dog.
Take a moment here to soften in our first down dog,
Bend one knee.
Than the other And come up onto your toes and bend the knees.
Just take a moment to notice what you notice.
How does it feel to be upside down today?
A little shift of perspective.
Gives our bodies a little opportunity.
To set some of that overthinking mind,
The stress,
The anxiety down.
So notice where you can do that here.
Maybe soften the shoulders a little bit more.
Come back to pressing those knuckles down.
And eventually find stillness in your dog.
Hands in line with your shoulders.

In your lion's breath,
You'll stick your tongue out on your exhale and gaze at the center of your forehead.
So we're looking straight at that third eye point,

Exhale lifts you up and over into your fold finding those beautiful feet Start sliding the heels out and extending through the backs of the legs No forcing.
Or cranking.
In this for fun Pashimotanasana It's not about flexibility.
It's not about where you land.
It's about accepting where you land allowing yourself to soften.
To close your eyes,
To turn inward.
To my son.
A couple cycles of breath here.
Come back to your diaphragmatic breath,
Breathing deep,
Deep,
Deep into your belly.
Relax your shoulders.
Separate your teeth.
Once you've found a few good deep belly breaths.
Tug your chin into your chest.
And from your sits bones,
Slowly roll all the way up.
One vertebrae at a time.
Head and neck will come last.
Shoulders lift up toward the ears and roll back and down.
And then again up Around and down.
Around and down and then the other way three times Mm-hmm.
Nice slowdown.
Bring the hands behind.
Bend your knees.
Scooch the booty forward.
Plant the soles of your feet.
Grab on behind the legs.
Adjust as much as you need Loop the shoulders back and down.
And last little bit of strength.
You got this.
Navel's hugging up and in.
Heart chest is lifted.
Shoulders relaxed down.
So here's that dunda or staff again we play with.
And then gently rocking on to the sits bones.
And we're going to stay holding on to the legs.
So maybe it's the backs of the thighs or I like to grab on to one of my wrists.
But keeping integrity in the spine is what we're looking for and building strength in the right way.
Relaxing the shoulders,
Really building the right muscles and connections.
Be easy with yourself.
And let's slow down the breath here.
Big inhale in.
Slow breath out.
I'm a Marine Hill.
One more exhale.
Maybe on this last one,
You want to let go.
Palms face the ceiling.
Big inhale in.
On your exhale,
Slow controlled lower to your back.
Yay,
We made it.
Big morning stretch.
Ooh,
My water.
Hug the knees in towards your chest.
Give yourself a big hug.
Clasping onto the knees.
Or maybe holding on to one wrist.
From here on out,
We're slowing down.
So find your breath and soften your gaze or close your eyes.
Notice how you feel.
Find gratitude for showing up for your practice today.
Big move.
Last little bit together here.
Gently release the knee.
Soles of the feet plant behind your hip points.
Hands come down by your side.
Palms face up or down.
You choose.
Press into the back of your head.
Snuggle the shoulder blades underneath you.
And find some support for the low back.
So slight tuck of the tailbone and it just feels good.
From there,
Hands can gently rest wherever feels best.
And when you're ready right foot lifts up to the ceiling Point your right foot.
And then flex all the toes.
Point,
Point,
Point.
Flex.
Spread your toes wide and draw a big circle one way.
And then the other.
Good.
Keep the toes right.
Right ankle crosses the left thigh.
This may be enough as you press the right thigh open,
Right knee.
Be mindful.
Or coming for our reclined pigeon.
Thread the needle as you lift the left foot up.
Left foot is stamped.
Those nice bright toes again.
And from here,
Lots of options to get curious.
So maybe it's just a gentle rock side to side.
Or you can extend the left leg.
Come back to your breath.
Take one more inhale in.
Exhale,
Gently release the left foot down,
Keep the right ankle crossed.
Arms go out into a cactus,
So elbows nice and bent,
90-ish degree angles.
Hips scooch to the right just an inch or two.
Knees fall to the left for a supine twist.
You may stop in our figure four supine twist.
Keeping the right foot planted and finding some space through that right waistline.
You're welcome to bring the right knee all the way down.
And find a supine twist here Allow yourself to get cozy.
So bring in your blanket or pillow if you need any kind of support under the head,
Underneath the knees.
Really allow this practice to feel good.
And we're almost to the end,
But don't cut yourself short.
Get one more good.
Full breath in.
Full breath out.
Slowly come back to center.
Uncross the right ankle.
Toes are nice and bright as you scooch back to center and windshield wiping your knees side to side.
Do a little internal,
External rotation of the hips going.
Maybe a little massage for the sacrum and the low back.
The glutes And then back to center.
Plant the soles of the feet,
Knees up toward the ceiling,
Palms flat.
And left foot lifts up to the ceiling.
Point.
And flex.
And flash.
Keep your toes bright.
Circles one way And then the other almost missed it.
Heck no.
Let's see what's going on here one way and then the other.
And then when you're ready,
Toes stay bright again.
Left ankle crosses the right thigh.
Maybe take a moment to just pause.
Notice how the side feels.
And lifting the right foot,
Thread the needle,
Interlace behind the right thigh if it feels good.
Opening up through that left hip.
Take a moment to soften.
Come back to your diaphragmatic breath,
Breathing deep into your belly.
And again,
Maybe eyes are closed.
Cheeks are nice and soft.
Breath is full.
One last inhale in.
Exhale,
Let it go.
Gently release the right foot down,
Arms go out into a cactus,
Left ankle stays,
Hips scooch to the left.
Knees fall to the right for your figure four supine twist.
Or coming into another variation that serves you.
No wrong answers if it feels good for you.
And we listen.
This practice is all about connecting to your inner guide,
Your inner voice.
So trust it.
Trust what comes up.
Belly breaths in.
Allow the body to get a little heavier.
Gently coming back to center.
Uncross the left ankle.
Hug both knees in one last time.
And bring the knees nice and wide,
Coming into a happy baby.
So you may stay right here,
Just keeping the knees wide,
Holding on.
Finding some wiggles or lifting the soles of your feet up toward the ceiling,
Grabbing on to the outer edges of your feet,
Maybe inner arches or the big toes.
Finding a happy baby.
Extending tailbone out toward the top edge of your mat.
Finding this dunda or staff again,
Even on your back.
So I'll go the shoulders down.
Maybe a couple of gentle rocks from side to side.
Maybe one leg extends and then the other.
Smile.
Way to show off for yourself today.
Find any other movement that would feel good to close out your practice.
Trust yourself.
Trust your breath.
Maybe it's a couple bridge poses.
Waterfall legs,
Maybe something else.
Knees can go wide,
Finding a little bus stop in reclined,
Cobbler's pose.
We'll all meet together again in Shavasana.
Extending both legs out long.
And.
.
.
Extending arms out wide.
But I do always like to remind you that Shavasana doesn't have to be taken on your back.
This doesn't feel good for you today.
Please.
Roll on your side.
Go to your belly.
Find an uproot seed.
Just take a couple quiet moments.
To close out your practice,
However that looks for you.
Last invitation for me,
Wherever you are though,
Is to practice taking up a little more space.
Widen the arms and the legs if it's physically.
Open your heart.
Your mind,
If it's energetically,
Emotionally.
And trust.
You are enough.
Stay with you here for a few moments to breathe.
Come back to the awareness of your breath.
Traveling in through the nose.
And out the nose or the mouth.
Allow your body to get heavy.
The practice of letting go.
You're welcome to stay here as long as you need.
If you're ready to get moving,
Thank you for sharing your valuable time with me.
I'm gonna close this hair on the back just Just stay in union with those still grounded.
If you're heading off to your day,
Gently bring the palms together.
And bring the thumbs to the third eye.
Closing out our third eye chakra flow.
Big inhale into your third eye.
Exhale out.
Allow yourself to go.
Be seen.
Be great.
Delight in me,
Sees and respects greatly,
Delight in you.
Namaste.
