Morning Rites with Michele
15 minutes or less

11m
A short refreshing morning ritual loosely inspired by the Tibetan Rites and our own WILD class. Morning Rites harks back to ancient times in a modern and fresh approach and delivers flexibility and a feeling of openness.
We flush the body with oxygen through Fire Breath, stimulate the spine and abdomen to detoxify, and awaken the nervous system. By compressing and irrigating the internal organs we stimulate digestion and elimination and remove sluggishness so we can take on the day feeling fresh and energised.
Rituals are sacred. They give us space to remember who we are and that we are part of something greater. Start your day by connecting with body, breath and soul.
Levels - All
Props - None, unless you would like a block to sit on when you kneel or sit cross legged. A big glass of warm water before you begin is a great tip too.
