Quick vinyasa sequence
Hiya, all, and happy Monday! This is a short part of a much longer sequence that I just don't have time type up the entirety of right now. The whole idea behind this sequence was the rapid switch between warmer and cooler days leading to achy bodies, in particular upper back and neck. So, lots of good stuff in here for the neck and shoulders (all of the belly down asana). Also, the switch between Boat and Flipped Plank is a delicious stretch on the belly after it had just been super engaged. As always, please remember to warm up before playing around and give yourself time to cool down afterward.
