Choosing to be slow to rise allows you to transition into consciousness with intention rather than urgency. In Season 1, Episode 16 of Sunrise Yoga, instructor Clara Roberts-Oss leads a gentle morning hatha yoga session designed to ease you into the day without the need for props or complex sequences. By starting your morning with deliberate care, you create a buffer against the fast-paced demands of daily life, anchoring your awareness in the present moment. This approach encourages a soft awakening, allowing your nervous system to transition smoothly from rest to active engagement.

This level 1 hatha yoga practice offers a supportive, accessible space for both experienced practitioners and those seeking hatha yoga for beginners.

This sunrise yoga practice invites you to honor your body's natural rhythm, allowing your muscles to lengthen and your joints to open at their own pace. Experience the grounding benefits of Clara Roberts-Oss yoga as you align your breath with gentle postures that prepare you mentally, emotionally, and physically for the day.
