Radical Body Love + Acceptance

This practice is for bringing a sense of Radical Acceptance to your body and mind, not as a form of “getting better,” but to be as you truly are, which naturally counters systems of oppression. Liberation through being.

ACTIVITY LEVEL:  moderate with slow pacing

This is an all-level practice that offers options to Downward Dog. Includes child’s pose, standing and strengthening poses, pigeon, and some supine poses. I will guide us through each pose, suitable for those who are new to yoga. 

PROPS: a chair or blocks may be needed

DONATIONS: Suggested Donation $10-20 @AO_Yoga on Venmo. Or Paypal. And support the ongoing project via Patreon. 

Prenatal/Postpartum: This practice is not tailored for those who are pregnant, but can be adapted by adjusting to a wide knee child’s pose, not twisting, and not lying flat on the back.

LAND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT: This video was made in Brooklyn, NY- land taken from the Lenape people. Before you start, take a moment to acknowledge who came before you. https://native-land.ca/territory-acknowledgement

LANGUAGE: In this practice, I refer to “we” and “us” as a form of community, and I refer to “you” as an acknowledgement of your presence. It is not meant to infer that you will be or should be doing any particular action with your body, so please disregard what doesn’t feel applicable to you.
