Thanks for being my companion this morning. Feeling much better & calmer after the class. Lots happening in my life. Learning to be patience with the process. Namaste love & light!!
Wishing you so much positive energy Lucie and hoping for success in all that you endeavor. Thank you for sharing your time with me and for taking time to comment. Peace, Aprille
You are so welcome! Patrick rarely comes into film as he's quite shy - but, he's just the sweetest boy and is very deeply attached to me and me only. Thanks for joining us and have a great day! Peace, Aprille
This class was yin perfection. I love how there was no music and you allowed meditative silence flank the good variety of asanas. You have great cues. Thank you.
You are welcome and thank you so much for joining me and for taking a moment to comment - I really appreciate it! Have a wonderful week - Namaste, Aprille
This was exactly what my mind and body needed last night - thank you so much for your calm and comforting guidance as always 🧡I really liked your affirmation of "I trust in my future and in the decisions I'm making for my future" - they were very timely reminders for me last night. Hope all is well with you Aprille x
Today's practice is about working your way into the next season with ease - both mentally and physically. I hope you enjoy this very quiet practice and a special visit from Patrick (my kitty boy)! 😺🌻 Namaste, Aprille
Patrick! What a great assistant! Thank you for another great practice. I'm going to share this with someone who's recovering from a couple of things simultaneously.
Thanks for sharing!! Yes, Patrick is the sweetest little fluffy assistant and he's super warm and comforting. Thank you for joining us today! Peace, Aprille
Hi Aprille, that was a lovely session 💓🤗 I loved meeting the kitty who doesn't usually come for visit. 💓🤘🏼 What was his name? Regarding the mantra for seasonal transition and Vata Dosha, I was reminded of one of my favorite healing crystals, the dalmatian Jasper. One of the properties for this Crystal is to feel child like joy. Another is that it helps one to find joy in their manifestation on earth. The mantra for this Crystal is "I go with the flow of the universe knowing that I am protected".
i love this practice.. have had a few digest issues and felt wobbly, ungrounded and in pain. this has really supported me to get back into the calm centred grounded space as well as feeling energy flow in my digestion again xx love to you Aprille xx

Wonderful! This is definitely a time for the seasonal transition as we shift again and grounding always seems to help I think. Thank you for joining me for practice and have a GREAT day! Peace, Aprille
This again was so supportive for me, a real tonic! True bliss after each pose is released, it feels so good to nourish the body and soul with these practices, they are deep and I love them, thank you and many blessings your way my friend!
I'm truly loving your practices. Thank you so much. I have digestive issues and adrenal fatigue. Your presence is very comforting to me. Thank you Aprille!
Thank you Beth and you are so very welcome! I am so happy to hear my offerings are helping in any way and I wish you good health and healing. Have a wonderful day! Peace, Aprille 💜💞🙏🏻
Thank you so much for your kind words, for practicing with me online and for taking the time to comment! I really appreciate it! Have a lovely day - Peace, Aprille
I was poking around to find something for balance and found this practice.. It was a full practice for balance and digestion. I liked it very much! Thank you Aprille.
This was released last Fall for the seasonal transition and is still one of my very favorite practices although it might be because my fav little kitten Patrick joined me and was SO sweet. Thank you for joining me and I am glad to hear this was just right! Peace, Aprille
How lovely! I did really enjoy this practice and filming it was sweet. The sun streamed in gloriously and made it even more sweet. Thank you for joining me today! Peace, Aprille
Try taking your feet wider, your arms more out on front, maybe go lower in seal and use a block or blocks for under your head. Some people find that taking their heads up or back and holding doesn't feel good so lengthen the neck and let it drop to chin or support.
Perfection Aprille: Thank you for this practice and I did feel much more grounded afterwards. I learned a lot about transitioning from summer to fall. Never really thought about it as our modern world has turned away from such basics. And an almost 4 minute per side pigeon/swan pose!!! Didn’t think I could make it through and tried not to fidget but was proud of myself after. Mr. Patrick is a handsome guy and sure stuck around for being so camera shy. Thank you Aprille - you give so much and are such a mentor. Namaste and many blessing.
+Denise, thank you! I am glad you enjoyed it and feel better afterwards! Pigeon/swan is a tough one for me too but I just keep breathing...knowing it will end soon! 🙏 Patrick is getting friendlier lately so maybe he will join me again soon. I appreciate all of your kind words and taking time to give me feedback here. You are very, very welcome! Namaste, Aprille
This was amazing for me this morning! I need the grounding that you are speaking of just the fact that you spoke of it helped me ground more. The stretches were so helpful for my body and mind!
Wonderful Jennifer! I am so glad this practice helped you settle during this season of change. Thank you for sharing this practice with me and have a wonderful day! Peace & Namaste, Aprille
Isn't it amazing how time flows in Yin? As if it slows down for us to reboot. Thank you for joining me for this practice and have a wonderful weekend! Peace, Aprille
Thank you! I rarely wear light colors like this but I was feeling a bit wild (thus the curly hair too). Happy first day of fall to you too Cindy and may you have a glorious weekend! Namaste, Aprille 🍁🌻
I was going to say "well this is perfect for spring too!" and then you said it yourself:) Now I'm going to go and look for the other one... This was so enjoyable and really helped with first-day-of-period digestive issues... it was so deeply releasing that I could have remained hours in each pose! And as a zen-shiatsu practitioner, I loved all the different ways you have shown for opening the spleen and stomach meridians... thank you for sharing your abundant knowledge and, with these videos, making it easier to settle into a practice when it's too hard to do it alone :)
Thank you and I am so glad you enjoyed this. I know what you mean for remaining hours in a pose - I sometimes lose track of time in my practice and have no idea how long I have been there! You are very welcome and thank you for taking the time to comment and share your practice with me. The other video for Spring is here: ua-cam.com/video/7Dsh1gNs3oA/v-deo.html Peace, Aprille
Thank you so much for this Excellent class I especially liked the talk you gave at the beginning it really resonated. Thank you for all of your hard work it is really appreciated :)
Thank you Aspyn for joining me online - I really appreciate you taking the time to let me know what you thought too! You are so very welcome and thank you for your appreciation! Have a lovely week and enjoy the coming fall weather! Namaste, Aprille
This is such a peaceful practice❤🍁❤🍁❤... perfect for fall! I mean how many times have i said this about your yin practice ? Everyday when i practice... Thanku🙏Unconditional love, light,Peace to all🙌💚🙌
Thank you Rubeena and I am so happy you feel this helped the fall transition. Seasonal transitions can be a little tricky to work through but with some preplanning and focus on assisting the mind/body with the transition - it can go a lot better and be far less challenging. Wishing you a beautiful and peaceful day - love and light! Peace, Aprille
@@YogaRangerStudio you are so right dear aprille...i get confused these days as to which practice i should persue...the other i practiced the chakra video &that helped tremendously...these days the fatigue sets in out of nowhere &then after a few hours i feel fine...so today i practiced yin yoga for immunesystem... Thanku for ur peaceful presence... Love u🙏❤🌹🍁💚
You are very welcome Kathy! The breath or pranayama practice is called kumbhaka. Breath rentention at the top of the inhale is antara kumbhaka and retaining at the bottom of the exhale is bahya kumbhaka. According to B.K.S. Light on Pranayama, bahya kumbhaka is the state in which a yogi surrenders. I find that breath retention at the bottom of the exhale helps release the body and mind more deeply and helps deepen the overall sense of peacefulness as well as assisting the body in coming into the "rest and digest" mode which promotes healing and restoration. Namaste, Aprille
I get that - sometimes transition is really challenging both physically and mentally. I have another class for this coming on Thursday morning if you are interested in more?! Thank you for joining me - Peace, Aprille
is it me? I have real trouble hearing you accept when you're on your stomache. I had my TV volume up to 56! I find I have to constantly reach for the remote to raise, then lower the volume....distracting, but I love your videos!!
+Laurie Carty I am sorry Laurie! I was recently asked by several people to reduce my volume because it was overwhelming and I did turn it down a bit. Can you try running it on a mobile device to see if the sound is better? Is it just this video or all videos? Thanks! Aprille
just what I need for this season of changing and having stomach pain because I store others energy inside me as a therapist.. thank you for these grounding yoga poses.. follow me on instagram Fasiyuhealt... thank you
I hope you are feeling better and definitely practice lots of self care during the season change. Thank you for joining me and have a great day! Peace, Aprille
One of the greatest gifts in life is practicing restorative/yin postures with kitty friends.
I agree! I am so lucky to have my crew each week. Thank you for joining us today and have a wonderful weekend. Peace, Aprille

Thank you Aprille. I was just thinking "who's that little fella"? and you say "In case you're wondering, this is Patrick!" how cute is he!
You are so welcome! Patrick rarely comes into film as he's quite shy - but, he's just the sweetest boy and is very deeply attached to me and me only. Thanks for joining us and have a great day! Peace, Aprille
Beautiful way to transition from work to home this evening.

I think this has been my favourite one :)
How lovely! I did really enjoy this practice and filming it was sweet. The sun streamed in gloriously and made it even more sweet. Thank you for joining me today! Peace, Aprille
@@YogaRangerStudio but the seal or sphinx pose causes me tensional headaches, how can i improve that?
Try taking your feet wider, your arms more out on front, maybe go lower in seal and use a block or blocks for under your head. Some people find that taking their heads up or back and holding doesn't feel good so lengthen the neck and let it drop to chin or support.
