Here are some simple stretches to bring a bit of fluidity to your shoulders. I also cover tree pose and standing.
This was filmed on the beautiful island of Tresco.
I apologise for some poor sound quality when I turn my back to the camera, I only came out for a walk to meet Dan.

In today’s session I will guide you through gentle hip movements to help with Lotus pose, aka Padmasana.
Look after your knees, listen to your body. Soften into this yoga practice and enjoy.
Ustrasana or Camel pose is a wonderful heart opening pose, it lifts the spirit and opens up the chest.
Standing poses bring strength to the legs reminding us to remain grounded.
This little film was made one morning on Tresco (one of the Isles of Scilly). Listen out for the birds, so so soothing.
Enjoy your practice,
Lucy
According to Prashant Iyengar “Standing poses bring strength, backbends are for courage”.
I really enjoy how I feel after these poses, well worth the effort in my world.
Trikonasana, Vrksasana, and Utkatasana are my current favourites, I hope you will enjoy them too.
Here is a quick uplifting yoga practice to start your day.
Love and light,
Lucy
This is one of those unplanned sessions, the yoga just flowed.
Firstly we look at shoulder mobility then towards strength.
It’s chilled and slightly challenging.
Enjoy
Using props in yoga can really help with getting a handle on the slightly more challenging poses. Holding Chaturanga in an Iyengar Yoga practice is a challenge. In the book, Light on Yoga, BKS Iyengar says “stay for some time with normal breathing”, leaving it up to the individual to decide how long “some time ” is. Often we dip in and don’t hold this chaturanga challenge, at the end of the practice we do just that (but only if you want to). Enjoy, Love and light, Lucy
