Be Fearless!
Try out the sequence! It is detailed so you can work on this on your own with or without video. It may seem like a lot of poses, but don’t let that scare you. It only takes five minutes to complete!
Be EXTRA!
Try adding some music that makes you happy, light a scented candle, and take these five minutes for yourself. I think you will feel more open to new ideas, find you can shake off any funky feelings, and be a bit more energized for your day.
