Day 6 - 2-Week Grounding and Gratitude Challenge

Welcome to Day 6 of our 2-Week Grounding and Gratitude Challenge!

Saturday, November 16th

You’ve made it nearly a full week, and your commitment is shining through. Each day you’ve stepped onto your mat, you’ve strengthened not just your body, but also your ability to stay grounded and present.

Take a moment to acknowledge how far you’ve come—you’re doing amazing work!

Today’s classes offer two fantastic ways to connect with your body. Need to unwind after a workout or simply want to stretch deeply? Try the 35-minute all-levels post-workout stretch, perfect for releasing tension anytime. Or, if you’re ready to flow, our 40-minute vinyasa class is packed with opportunities to move with your breath and energize your entire being.

Keep showing up, trusting the process, and embracing the benefits of your daily practice. You’re building something truly powerful within yourself.

Don’t forget to check in afterward with a comment to gain another entry for our prize packages! 🌟💪

Here are today's class options:

Yoga for Cross Training - Rest Day with Mary Baker

35 min class

Level: All Levels | Intensity: Ahhhhhh

You work hard all week at the gym – treat yourself to an extra yummy rest day with this stay low full body stretch session. Class begins starting out on your back to stretch out those tight hamstrings and IT bands. Then transitions to some seated and kneeling poses for releasing the psoas, spine & shoulders. Then head back down to reclining to wrap up with some extra goodness for the low back and glutes. Your body will say a big thank you for this relaxing rest day practice!

Flow Within with Christen Bakken

40 min class

Level: Adv. Beginner & Up | Intensity: You'll Feel It

This vinyasa class is filled with plenty of opportunities to move with breath. In yoga, we call this "flow." To be in a state of flow is to be connected to the present moment no matter how dynamic or seemingly stuck. We will work on moving through transitions, staying present and balancing our give and take in each posture while getting a bit lost in the rhythm of it all.

*you only need to choose one class

**If you're feeling in the mood for something different you can choose any of our free classes on our site (or any other class you'd like!). The most important thing is to show up and get on your mat!

I actually went back to the lower body fusion flow from yesterday. I wanted to try a different style and teacher. It was great class, but definitely a challenge for me.

Stretched with Mary this morning. GREAT stretches for hips, back, and legs. I love Mary and her approach and her classes. Am adding this one to my stretching rotation. Om shanti

Susan Wong 7 hours ago

I did Christen’s class and it was short but good flows and poses. I also liked the no music background as sometimes the music distracts my focus. Thanks!

Nina 7 hours ago

Did Mary’s class today, enjoyed the slow pace and stretches but had to look up a number of times as I found the cues and descriptions a bit difficult to follow.

Dar241 8 hours ago

I decided on Mary's class this morning. Sometimes you just need a great stretch to get the day started! This was just right! Love Mary's classes and made sure I added this one to my favorites!

Geri 8 hours ago

Joining the challenge late for a range of reasons. Did Mary's class today and not sure how I'd missed it before. Quite the perfect class, reaching all the parts that can get missed. Super use of props. Definitely one to revisit often

Joinaz 8 hours ago

Both of these classes are in my Favorite of Favorite classes! Went w Christen's today, absolutely wonderful.

Macsek 8 hours ago

Nice little flow practice for today.

Jennie 9 hours ago

I had done Mary's class recently so I chose Christen's Flow Within. I loved how the flow was within each shape instead of just between them. Very nice class.

Valerie 9 hours ago

The music made Christen's class special! At first, I thought it was too loud to hear the instructions, but I'm glad I stuck with it because it got easier after a few minutes of listening. And it was nice to be totally bathed in sound!

Rest day was just what I needed
