Welcome to STRESS BUSTER with guest instructors - Misty and Chad! This short, energizing practice is designed to help you move through tension and reset your system — body, mind, and heart. Through mindful movement, conscious breath, and a little bit of joy, we’ll help release the buildup of stress and invite in ease.
Remember, stress is natural — it’s our body’s way of signaling that we need to pause, move, or breathe. Together, we’ll use simple movement and presence to support balance, restore calm, and reconnect to that inner light that’s always there.
Take a deep breath, and let’s bust some stress — from the inside out.

a little bit of breath. Some yoga together. All right. Now we're going to start to swing the arms
a little. Side to side. Think of your arms like noodle arms here. Letting go of any stress or tension. Things that have been bothering you.

of your feet on the earth. Feel your head over your heart. Your heart over your pelvis. One last time. Inhale. Reach for the sky. Reach beyond the fingertips. Full body stretch and then exhale. Bring the palms together and
let them slowly float back to your heart. Here. Pressing the palms together
with intention. Close your eyes or soften your gaze. Here we'll take one final stress busting
