Guiding themes woven throughout

• Respecting body boundaries
• Options over perfection
• Breath before depth

When this practice fits

• When the body feels stiff or restless
• As a midday reset
• Before longer standing or walking
• To reconnect breath and movement

Try this after listening

• Choose one movement that felt supportive
• Repeat it later today with three slow breaths
• Notice how your shoulders and spine respond
