Start your session with being conscious about your breathing and state of spirit. Breathe slowly, clear your mind and let your emotions guide you for a while so as to get to know your body. There are a few different flows for quick yoga practice if you have a time restraint.
The most basic is the Suryanamaskar. Try and do 5 of these in a row for a whole body warm up. This routine involves 12 movements with some repetitions. Best time to do this is in the early morning for the full benefits. It is a respectable exercise all on its own.
Pick any 5 asanas and practice everyday before having breakfast. These poses are highly beneficial for working professionals, students and homebodies to kick start their day with positive energy. Try and hold each pose for a minimum for 5 in-out breaths at a steady pace.

Another form of quick flow is through vinyasa yoga.

You can connect your breath with the poses and recreate your own style with different variations which is highly beneficial for a quick morning boost.
For example: You might decide that after a low lunge, you want to turn your body and go into goddess pose. Or you might decide to deepen the stretch and go into Lizard pose. Its up to you!! We always recommend a qualified yoga instructor of course, when you pick any asanas by yourself, stay within your limits.
