Welcome to this 45-minute Vinyasa flow practice themed on letting go of attachments. Throughout this practice, we will focus on releasing any physical, mental, or emotional attachments that no longer serve us. Let’s begin.

  1. Start in a comfortable seated position. Close your eyes and take a few deep breaths, allowing yourself to arrive fully on your mat. Set an intention to let go of any attachments that are holding you back.

  2. Begin with some gentle neck stretches. Slowly tilt your head to the right, bringing your right ear towards your right shoulder. Take a few breaths here, feeling the stretch on the left side of your neck. Repeat on the other side.

  3. From a seated position, come onto your hands and knees for Cat-Cow pose. Inhale, arch your back, and lift your gaze towards the ceiling for Cow pose. Exhale, round your spine, and tuck your chin towards your chest for Cat pose. Flow between these two poses, syncing your breath with your movement.

  4. Transition into Downward Facing Dog. Press your palms into the mat, lift your hips up and back, and lengthen your spine. Pedal your feet to stretch out your calves and hamstrings. Take a few breaths here, allowing any tension to melt away.

  5. Step your right foot forward into a low lunge. Keep your left knee on the mat and lift your torso up, bringing your hands to your right thigh. Take a moment to feel the stretch in your left hip flexor. Breathe deeply and visualize releasing any attachments that no longer serve you. Repeat on the other side.

  6. From Downward Facing Dog, shift your weight forward into Plank pose. Hold for a few breaths, engaging your core and feeling the strength in your body. Visualize letting go of any attachments that are weighing you down.

  7. Lower your knees to the mat and come into Child’s pose. Rest your forehead on the mat and extend your arms forward. Take this moment to surrender and release any attachments that are holding you back.

  8. From Child’s pose, come back up to a seated position. Extend your legs out in front of you for Seated Forward Fold. Inhale, lengthen your spine, and exhale, fold forward, reaching for your feet or ankles. Allow yourself to surrender and let go of any attachments that are no longer serving you.

  9. Transition into a gentle twist. Bend your right knee and place your right foot on the outside of your left thigh. Inhale, lengthen your spine, and exhale, twist towards the right, placing your left hand on your right knee and your right hand behind you. Take a few breaths here, visualizing releasing any attachments that no longer serve you. Repeat on the other side.

  10. Finish the practice with Savasana, Corpse pose. Lie down on your back, close your eyes, and allow your body to fully relax. Let go of any remaining attachments, surrendering to the present moment.

Take a few moments in Savasana to reflect on your practice and the process of letting go. When you’re ready, slowly bring yourself back to a seated position, bringing your hands to your heart center. Take a deep breath in, and as you exhale, release any attachments that no longer serve you.

Namaste.
