🧘🏾♀️ Recovery Flow: Mermaid, Half Moon & Bird
Today’s recovery session was a 30-minute Body Balance 97 flow at home.
I focused on mobility, core strength, and balance — three things I’ve been working on since the start of this journey.
Key poses of the day:
-
Standing Mermaid (great for side-body mobility)
-
Half Moon (balance + core activation)
-
Bird Pose (postural control + focus)
This was a gentle, low-impact session, perfect for active recovery.
And yes — my bird flew. 🕊️
