HI!!!! This session is great preventative care, from a yoga therapy perspective. It is also here for you when you are experiencing racing thoughts, mental worry, or decision fatigue. For those days when you need to clear the mental clutter and return to the power of now. Please share this one with a friend or family member and let me know how it goes for you in the comments :) I read them all! And love to hear from you. xxoo
I love you so much Sweet Sweet Benji! Thank you Dearest Adrienne for this practice is EXACTLY what I need as you've Must've read my mind . I struggle with overthinking , and have so for quite some time. Even last night , I couldn't sleep because my mind tries to solve all of life's problems at 11o clock at night. I really tried to get a full 8 hours but I am feeling like you know what , because I'm so sleep deprived . And I promised to go to church today although I just really want to go back to sleep. Okie doke , well you all have a Beautiful rest of your day and I will see you tomorrow, namaste 🧘🏼♀️🙏🏻🕉☀️🌳🍂🍁🍃🍂🍁🍃🍂🍁🍃🌻🐞🌻🌸🦋🌸🐦🎶😘😘😘🐶🐾🐾🐾❤️🩹❤️🩹❤️🩹♥️♥️♥️❤️❤️❤️❣️❣️❣️✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️
I love how you emphasized breathing the getting into the body in this practice 🥰. I've realized that in my yoga journey, I often overthink and struggle with things that are more in my mind than in my body: the idea that "I can't" do core, that "I can't" deal with long practices, that "I don't have" enough time, that "I'm not" strong enough. But I can, I have and I am as I have proven to myself during the last years. Thank you for being here in this journey with me 💖
On Monday I found out I wasn’t getting the financial aid I need to complete my program to be a licensed therapist and it kicked up my PTSD around experiencing homelessness with a child. I’ve been in a fear loop all week and this was EXACTLY what I needed. Thank you for your stalwart love and present nature always Adrienne 🙏🏽
Sending you hugs, I’m facing redundancy this week so I sympathise. Luckily I do have partner with a stable income but I still need a job! Tough times out there but we will get through it. Xx
@missalexakennedy I’m dedicating my practice to you this week & manifesting that the funds will come to you as you need them. There is a place for you in the world of therapy & you’ll be there in the right time. xx
No matter how many practices I have done with you, Adriene, whispering "I am strong" to myself never fails to make me emotional. I wish life was as easy off the mat as it often appears to me on the mat, but it is true: I am strong and I will keep trying to do my best.
I'm the same! I think for me it's because I spent so many years saying mean things about myself, there's something really moving about saying positive things to myself
Lately, I’ve been stuck in my own thoughts that it’s been hard to even get out of bed these days. I needed some light movement this morning, thank you Adrienne ❤
Adriene, I am a clinical social worker and I can't tell you how many times I've sent your videos to clients and school students over the years! Thank you for being so accessible to so many different types of people-- you are just a very real person and it comes through every time you teach.
Greetings from Asheville, NC. After nine days without power, we finally got electricity last night. And I knew the first thing I wanted to do this morning was this video. Thank you, Adriene, for giving me an opportunity to rest my heart. Because it is very heavy right now. Please keep Western North Carolina in your thoughts as we recover from this terrible storm.
Thank you for asking!! Right now, there’s an immediate need for food, clean water, and housing for displaced people, so donations to relief organizations that are currently on the ground, such as World Central Kitchen, would be most effective. Going forward, please consider supporting our local businesses and artists as they rebuild. It will take months if not years for this community to recover.
It’s been a long time since I’ve cried in yoga but when you talked about making the mat a place to really be honest about what we’re feeling I lost it. I’ve been feeling so lost and alone lately but I continue to show up to my mat. It’s no small thing to say that yoga has saved my life repeatedly. Thanks!
Adriene is the only yogi on youtube whom I can keep up with, and has been that way for years. Almost every other channels' practice feel fast or unorganized. Anyone else feel the same?
It's my birthday today and my heart is aching so much because of my past 💔 Thank you for always offering a soft place to land. I know many people have said this before Adriene, but you really have been a friend during my darkest times and i'll be forever grateful 🙏 Edit: thank you so much for the bday wishes/kind comments ❤️ this really is the best community, you're all beautiful
The eerie feeling you get when you sit down to find a calm yoga for the night because the back is aching, and the bell has listed on top a new video from Adriene. Which is odd because no notification had come up. Then you see it was posted 19 seconds ago! 😂 Back is less achy now 😁 As always, thank you Adriene, and sweet Benji! Thank you also to the 1898 people who practiced with me tonight! May you all be healthy, may you all be happy and filled with Love. Namaste 🙏
I loved the reminder to test the comfort zones. My instinct is to go to a passive movement, especially in pigeon. The challenge to stay up is indeed a challenge! ❤
Just did this practice with my sweet senior dog in a bed next to my mat. He's had a really hard couple of days and I think the cancer fight is coming to an end. I cried through most of it, but it felt good to move my body with control, when things in my life right now with him are so out of my control. Thank you, Adriene.
I’ve just graduated and one fine day, I felt stuck and not sure what a career for me looks like, I felt my skills are quite mundane even if I’ve spend so many years in education. Lost confidence. Went into an overthinking loop and I guess I was quite unkind to myself. Today I wanted to be kinder and this yoga session was the cherry on the top, thanks Adriene :) grateful to be part of this community
Magically, this practice showed up in my inbox today when I most needed it. My boyfriend and I have to move out of our home before Oct 31st, and we're experiencing a lot of setbacks and struggles trying to find a new place, made even more difficult by landlords not wanting to rent out to pets, and we have a sweet sweet dog. As the clock is ticking, this has led to high levels of stress, anxiety, and fear. Thank you Adriene, for this beautiful practice. I cried in mountain pose and released some of that fear. I hope all of you that find this video experience ease, love, and surrender. I wish you all lots of love. Thank you 🩷
I pray for you to find a place in time that will serve you well 🙏🏻 It is a very stressful thing to experience. Whatever happens, may you be safe and comforted 🩷
Trust that the right place will show up just in time. It's out there and about to become available.. I was staying with family for a short while as I relocated to a different area of the country. Let's just say it wasn't the most comfortable of circumstances and I was being constantly questioned on what I was doing to move out. I wanted to move by the end of July and nothing was coming up. I had intentions set with a power of eight group. On the 20th of July I relaxed and pushed the date out. Three days later I caught a listing as soon as it appeared and arranged a viewing for the following day. I moved in on the 30th of July. The same place waits for you, with room for your dear sweet dog. There might be a gap. It will still be okay. Wishing you peace and certainty through this experience - I know how stressful this is. Much love, Deb x
@@NothingByHalves dear Deb, thank you very much for your kind reply, it made me tear up and feel supported. I'm happy to hear it all worked out for you, even after a period of discomfort. I will continue to trust the journey. Thank you for your wishes, I really appreciate them. Sending you lots of love 🩷
@@Marindatje You are very welcome. I'm glad my story helped. I will add the experiences of my sister, who was trying to find somewhere affordable to live with her two boys and two cats after separating from their father, whilst he wasn't paying any maintenance. She went to view several properties and couldn't afford them. Time was running out. Then at the last moment a friend said she knew someone who was letting a property, available immediately, with no rent for the first three months... You've got this.. big hugs xx
This really helped a lot to start the day, Turn Day 21:11:24✅ Thank you again Adriene, you helped my thinking slow down well.. focus my mind and body to be grounded and have a good relaxing gentle release. I"m so grateful. Sending lots of love to all practicing.❤️😊 Namaste☮️💜🙏🏾
SO crazy how you just uploaded this as I've been overthinking about a situation with my boyfriend that's been keeping me up for the past few days. Perfect timing 💖
Nov 24. My thinking has slowed and I'm going to take the dogs for a long walk in the snow before the work day begins. Thank you once again Adriene, and the 200 people practicing along with me ❤ 🧘♀️ 🙏
Yoga practitioner * . Not trying to be disrespectful at all , I love her videos as well. But yogi means a person who has renounced the society and is on spiritual journey through the means of either Yoga , Bhakti(Worship), Sadhna(Meditation) etc.
Thanks again Adriene. It’s been a very rough month. My husband was let go from a company where he actually produced for UA-camrs (I am not allowed to say who they are) but it was quite abrupt and harsh and they haven’t kept any of their promises. I undulate between eternal optimism and wanting to burn the whole place down. I cried thru most of this…I don’t know how we will support our family now…and I I still don’t…but doing all of this and reading the comments I know I’m not alone. I pray for all of you. Bless❤
Thank you so much, Adriene. I discovered you when the quarantine was going on, and you have been a part of my life ever since. I come here when the times get hard, I come here when I feel good, you have helped me so much. Thank you for that, thank you for being here with us. I always feel a little taller and fuller in my heart after practice with you.
I’m so glad I found this. Two months ago, I came close to losing everything. Things are better now, but it’s a slow process. This will help me. Thank you so much for making it and posting it.
No stop because I thought this was an ancient vid that I just stumbled across right when I was having a spiral... Thank you, I'm one of those people that really needed this
Just want to say Thank you! Anytime I do yoga I do it with you! You are very professional and amazing at what you do! Thank you very much, I appreciate you!
Was in my head for a couple of days, overthinking about the decisions and mistakes I’ve made, was beating myself up over them. This practice popped out in recommendations and I thought: “great, that’s exactly what I need rn”, little did I know exactly how much I needed it. Ended up crying in the end of it, releasing all the negative emotions I was holding up. Thank you so much Adriene, you are always here for all of us! ❤️🩹
A long time Yoga with Adrienne fan here. Just want to let you know when my tortie cat, Gigi hears your theme music, she knows it's yoga time! She will lay next to me, practicing her shavasana, rolls over to do full body stretches, weaves her way around my down dogs (loves to tickle my nose with her tail as she walks under me) and practices her deep breathing with lots of purrs. She's actually a comforting presence during my (our) practice time. Thank you for all your videos - they've been so helpful over the years.
P.S. I had all kinds of therapy over the years, but yoga with you is the only thing that has worked. Joining mind and body and wringing out the trauma. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
I cried a couple of times during this practice. Having problems with a work colleague who is constantly unkind to me. Im trying to work out how to deal with the situation. My mind is in constant over drive. It was good to do your practice adrienne. Thank you ❤x
I started a new job that's 9-5 and a 2 hr commute. I completely fell off of my yoga practice and taking care of myself. The work environment was toxic and stressful and then grief set in from experiencing loss. This is the first full practice I've done in about a month and I can't thank you enough. I'm a certified yoga and snowboard instructor and thought I'd never make enough money doing those things, those things I love. The 9-5 life is not for me, the commute is not for me, and even though I'm walking away from a financially stable opportunity, I can walk back to myself. I'm not sure how it's all going to work but I need to start teaching again...thank you for your channel adriene 🙏 I've been practicing with you for over 10 years 🧡
This came perfectly right on time. Been overthinking lately. I can now feel a calming presence and a clear head on this Sunday morning... .Rekindle Day 06:10:24✅ mindful stretches, relieves stress 9:14👌🏾😌Thank you for all that you do for us all. Lots of love 💜💜Adriene Benji💞 and to you lovelies here. Namaste💜🤗🙏🏾
got intimidated seeing this is a 32-min long session but this is what i actually needed. one of the yummiest sessions for me! i loved the variation of the warrior stance, as it was my first time trying it out. thank you always for sharing your energy, adriene! i always know that i’m not alone because you exist. 💗
This is what I need today! I have been over thinking and lost motivation on my beloved project. I decided to do a yoga session with all of you today to start live in the moment. Mountain of love to you all! Namaste❤❤❤
At the end of the practice I felt this sense of connectedness, I felt like I was really doing the practice with Adriene and when we took our last breath together, I felt a bit sad even. Thank you, I needed this! Love from Finland 💙🤍
Overthinking this whole week. Saw the notification and reached for my mat. Thanku Adriene❤ Feel a lot more present and out my head Love and Light Karen (South Africa)
Recently I've been having some horrible migraines to the point I can't do anything but constantly think about this horrendous pain and cry all day. I know that some stretching can ease my suffering a little bit, but I just couldn't bring myself to move at all. And today I actually got up and followed the whole video and I'm just honestly so thankful. Was it the exercise or that I managed to NOT think about the pain for a while, but it helped a little. Thank you for what you do!
In the behinning of this session I kept getting lost in thought, but Adriene’s gentle guidance kept bringing me back to my breath and by the end of the practice I felt so much more present and calm 😌 This community and the practices always make me feel loved and connected, thank you all for being here! ❤❤
Thank you, Adriene! My fiancé and I use the phrase “get of your head and into your body” all the time when we aren’t feeling well, and when you said that in this video that was even more proof that a little yoga was just what I needed! I’ve been practicing for years because of you, thank you so much for making yoga so accessible!
Good morning YWA fam, thank you for this practice. I worked up a sweat, and rewound the video a few times to hear more clearly what Adriene said. How present are we with how we're feeling can make a big difference for our mental health. and It all makes sense. Its great to be able to rewind when I notice myself almost shutting down at certain messages, because I believe those are the ones I need to hear, to grow. There's magic in being present. I believe it has the power to heal the world.
I came home after work earlier, and just had a uncomfortable sensation of anxiety in my whole body, along with a lot of rumination thoughts and a feeling of urgency...came to the mat and did this practice with you - now I feel lighter and more in my body! THANK YOU Adriene!
You are amazing. When I started the practice I didn’t think I could finish it today. With your guidance, I got out of my head & just let the body move. I finished!
I knew I needed this today after a stressful period of work. Cried like a baby in the end for the first time after practising yoga. Now I get it when people said sometimes they cry in the session. But the power of connecting to our bodies is truly amazing. Thank you so much for this practice, Adriene!
Thank you so much for your service to our mental health. Your practices help my PTSD.along with the community comments. I love these longer videos and your wise counsel.
Grateful for you weekly emails offering these practices. I don’t always do them but it is so nice to read them each week and then when I give myself the gift of practicing with you, my heart and body is reminded how good it is to do yoga with you. This was a GREAT practice and I will be sharing it with others ❤
It took a while to get on the mat this morning - so glad I did! Does anyone really regret doing a yoga session? Thanks Adriene, you are so appreciated!
It's been so long since I've been on my mat (I am a new mom of twins), but you are so inspiring and always right on time. Thank you Adriene, for all these years with us ❤ I keep in mind to do this practice soon 😅😊
I like to believe I'm what I would call a recovery overthinker. I am trying to design a life where I feel more in the present. My tendency to overthink comes from past experiences and traumas that have led me to believe that I have failed. I know how hard it can be to get over those feelings when they come, and so do you. Yoga practice and meditation have been helping me cope, especially in the past few months when I'm thinking about new paths in life related to work and what I really want to do. Thank you for this time together. On certain days, it can be challenging to clear my mind and remain present. Namaste✨
This didn't feel like 30 minutes at all 🤍 and it was exactly what I needed. Sometimes I cry during my yoga practices but today I found myself laughing during the shaking of the feet and hands portion. Thank you always ☺
I love how you & Benji always make time to connect with each other during your practice. He’s been such a joy to watch all of these years with you. My 9.5 year old Sunshine shares my space & I treasure these moments with her.
I loved this today, thank you so much! 💛🙏🏻 If overthinking was an Olympic sport, then I’d most definitely be a multiple-times winning gold medalist! 🤣🤣 This took me out of my head for a while and gave me some balance. I guess I should get in my body and “do more” and try to think a lot less. Thanks, Adriene! 🙏🏻
My work is very physical, my pay is low, my worries high, and life i general too fast. It's incredible what a bit of self love and self care can do for you. You are a magical being! Thanks X
What a fantastic session. I am prone to overthinking and always seem to have a million thoughts racing through my mind. Lately, I have been very stressed due to starting a new job as a teacher for the first time. Adriene, you are telepathic. Your daily themes always coincide with my mental state or feelings on that day!!! I feel so much calmer and better after doing today's new session. Thank you for being so kind and sharing all your hard work. Sending you all lots of sunshine from Spain 🌞
Before I started the video I was like I am not overthinking but new videos sure, but after the video I am amazed by how clear my mind is. Really appreciated! Thank you Adriene!
The perfect practice on Sunday, as I tend to get a little nervous and anxious for the week to come. I don’t know why, it just happens. So thank you Adriene, you’re a real lifesaver.
I am a chaplain of over 20 years… I know when stressed I need to move.. meditation… into my body movement. I think Adrienne’s kind, gentle and really challenging yoga has been the greatest find for my yoga practice and centering growth when I am stressed. The best yoga workout I have found in 4 years of searching. Thank you.
Day 6 of Rekindle 🕯 This was so beautiful to do this weekend as I have been letting my mind run wild and latch onto things, negative things, that do not serve. In this session, I will be letting go of these thoughts and breathing in love. Thank you Adriene! ❤😘
I’ve practiced on and off with you since 2012, and there is nothing more comforting or healing than hearing your intro music and knowing we are together again for a little while, showing up for ourselves 🤍
I just bought a house and this was my return to the practice after a hectic few weeks of moving and doing repairs and I cannot thank you enough. I feel SO much better and so much more prepared for continuing to move forward.
Drove 9 hours in tense traffic today. This post helped me release all my pent up tension from that trip. Thank you 🙏 Your pace helps me stay strong through the entire thing & feel great coming out of the session feeling strong 💪🏼
This is exactly what I needed. My overthinking mind has been ACTIVE lately! It felt great to be in my body and quiet the swirling thoughts in my head. Thank you! Wishing everyone a beautiful day! ❤
This class was ironically just what I needed. I remember looking at the title thinking "that's not going to be much of a workout or flow class" but it deffo was in fact the right choice for me, I laughed, smiled and felt peace and serenity. I am always happy to share the mat and space with you Adriene. Namaste!
Dear Adrian. Thank you for all you do for us followers and your regular practitioners. Your charming humor makes me smile and laugh along with you in every workout. Your precise explanations allow me to feel the poses differently, and better, every time.
Hi Adriene, thanks for having you always when I needed you. From Abu Dhabi when I started and now here in Scotland you’re still with me with your yoga. I’m really convince the sound of your voice. Thanks my yoga teacher and take care always. Your 5 years student and counting❤ namaste
I’ve been struggling immensely with my mental health for a long time now, and recently had to take a leave of absence from my job because it became so debilitating. I’ve been doing at least one of your videos almost every day since then, and I feel a massive difference. Thank you for focusing on both physical and mental well being, you’ve been so helpful for me. ☺️
It has been a while Adriene. Although still practicing in a studio. I feel so at peace after your sessions. You, your voice, Benji really are special. Back on my 6.00am morning yoga with you Forever grateful 🙏🏻 Kath uk 🇬🇧
Day 21 of this months yoga calendar TURN. I'm really enjoying it so far. I loved today's yoga practice, it was so fun, and calming thank you Adriene. ❤ What you said about the yoga mat, is true for me too. I have cried a bunch of times on my mat, and laughed too. The yoga mat should be a place we come, and feel everything, but in a healthy way. Breathing, and moving with grace, while feeling all the emotions we need to. I love yoga for so many reasons, but this is one of them. As I struggle to let myself, feel things and give myself freedom. But I am working on it, thanks to you Adriene, and lots of other supportive people I love. See you on the mat tomorrow! 😊 Namaste. 🙏💜

Thanks!
I am once again convinced that Adriene is a magician - how else would she know to post something like this exactly when I need it!!
I know. 😂 I totally agree 💯
Same! ❤

@@NothingByHalves dear Deb, thank you very much for your kind reply, it made me tear up and feel supported. I'm happy to hear it all worked out for you, even after a period of discomfort. I will continue to trust the journey. Thank you for your wishes, I really appreciate them. Sending you lots of love 🩷
@@Marindatje You are very welcome. I'm glad my story helped.
I will add the experiences of my sister, who was trying to find somewhere affordable to live with her two boys and two cats after separating from their father, whilst he wasn't paying any maintenance. She went to view several properties and couldn't afford them. Time was running out. Then at the last moment a friend said she knew someone who was letting a property, available immediately, with no rent for the first three months... You've got this.. big hugs xx
This really helped a lot to start the day, Turn Day 21:11:24✅ Thank you again Adriene, you helped my thinking slow down well.. focus my mind and body to be grounded and have a good relaxing gentle release. I"m so grateful. Sending lots of love to all practicing.❤️😊 Namaste☮️💜🙏🏾
Wow. I'm brave. This is my second time on my mat today. I love ❤️ it. Thanks, Adriene. Blessings to my yoga family. 🙌 Namaste ❤️
Saw this comment after this mornings practice and it made me smile and say a F yeah! Outloud. You are brave. Second practice here I come ❤
SO crazy how you just uploaded this as I've been overthinking about a situation with my boyfriend that's been keeping me up for the past few days. Perfect timing 💖
Nov 24. My thinking has slowed and I'm going to take the dogs for a long walk in the snow before the work day begins. Thank you once again Adriene, and the 200 people practicing along with me ❤ 🧘♀️ 🙏
Somehow, this came out right when I needed it. Thank you. 🙏🏻
Adriene, you are the cutest Yogi on the Internet. Much love and many kisses and hugs from Hamburg, Germany
Yoga practitioner * . Not trying to be disrespectful at all , I love her videos as well. But yogi means a person who has renounced the society and is on spiritual journey through the means of either Yoga , Bhakti(Worship), Sadhna(Meditation) etc.
Thanks again Adriene. It’s been a very rough month. My husband was let go from a company where he actually produced for UA-camrs (I am not allowed to say who they are) but it was quite abrupt and harsh and they haven’t kept any of their promises. I undulate between eternal optimism and wanting to burn the whole place down. I cried thru most of this…I don’t know how we will support our family now…and I I still don’t…but doing all of this and reading the comments I know I’m not alone. I pray for all of you. Bless❤
💜🙏🏼
Turn day 22🎉 thank you, Adriene, found this tricky with a headache, but so glad I made it to my mat and to the end of the practice. 💖🙏🏻🧘🏼♀️
Thank you so much, Adriene. I discovered you when the quarantine was going on, and you have been a part of my life ever since. I come here when the times get hard, I come here when I feel good, you have helped me so much. Thank you for that, thank you for being here with us. I always feel a little taller and fuller in my heart after practice with you.
I’m so glad I found this. Two months ago, I came close to losing everything. Things are better now, but it’s a slow process. This will help me. Thank you so much for making it and posting it.
No stop because I thought this was an ancient vid that I just stumbled across right when I was having a spiral... Thank you, I'm one of those people that really needed this
Thank you Adrienne - at a time of great difficulty and tough decisions, this really helped me. The divine in me bows to the divine in you!
Just want to say Thank you! Anytime I do yoga I do it with you! You are very professional and amazing at what you do! Thank you very much, I appreciate you!
You said “let it go” at the very end and I sobbed. This week has been so very heavy. Thank you for allowing space for that release. 🩵
Was in my head for a couple of days, overthinking about the decisions and mistakes I’ve made, was beating myself up over them.
This practice popped out in recommendations and I thought: “great, that’s exactly what I need rn”, little did I know exactly how much I needed it.
Ended up crying in the end of it, releasing all the negative emotions I was holding up.
Thank you so much Adriene, you are always here for all of us! ❤️🩹
A long time Yoga with Adrienne fan here. Just want to let you know when my tortie cat, Gigi hears your theme music, she knows it's yoga time! She will lay next to me, practicing her shavasana, rolls over to do full body stretches, weaves her way around my down dogs (loves to tickle my nose with her tail as she walks under me) and practices her deep breathing with lots of purrs. She's actually a comforting presence during my (our) practice time. Thank you for all your videos - they've been so helpful over the years.
P.S. I had all kinds of therapy over the years, but yoga with you is the only thing that has worked. Joining mind and body and wringing out the trauma. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
I cried a couple of times during this practice.
Having problems with a work colleague who is constantly unkind to me.
Im trying to work out how to deal with the situation.
My mind is in constant over drive.
It was good to do your practice adrienne. Thank you ❤x
I started a new job that's 9-5 and a 2 hr commute. I completely fell off of my yoga practice and taking care of myself. The work environment was toxic and stressful and then grief set in from experiencing loss. This is the first full practice I've done in about a month and I can't thank you enough. I'm a certified yoga and snowboard instructor and thought I'd never make enough money doing those things, those things I love. The 9-5 life is not for me, the commute is not for me, and even though I'm walking away from a financially stable opportunity, I can walk back to myself. I'm not sure how it's all going to work but I need to start teaching again...thank you for your channel adriene 🙏 I've been practicing with you for over 10 years 🧡
This came perfectly right on time. Been overthinking lately. I can now feel a calming presence and a clear head on this Sunday morning... .Rekindle Day 06:10:24✅ mindful stretches, relieves stress 9:14👌🏾😌Thank you for all that you do for us all. Lots of love 💜💜Adriene Benji💞 and to you lovelies here. Namaste💜🤗🙏🏾
Greetings from Finland 🇫🇮. Thank you Adriene for a nice start of the day 🙏🧘
got intimidated seeing this is a 32-min long session but this is what i actually needed. one of the yummiest sessions for me! i loved the variation of the warrior stance, as it was my first time trying it out. thank you always for sharing your energy, adriene! i always know that i’m not alone because you exist. 💗
This is what I need today! I have been over thinking and lost motivation on my beloved project. I decided to do a yoga session with all of you today to start live in the moment. Mountain of love to you all! Namaste❤❤❤
At the end of the practice I felt this sense of connectedness, I felt like I was really doing the practice with Adriene and when we took our last breath together, I felt a bit sad even. Thank you, I needed this! Love from Finland 💙🤍
Overthinking this whole week. Saw the notification and reached for my mat. Thanku Adriene❤
Feel a lot more present and out my head
Love and Light Karen (South Africa)
Perfect timing per usual, A. What a great idea for a sequence. Unrolling mat right now. Thank you!!
Recently I've been having some horrible migraines to the point I can't do anything but constantly think about this horrendous pain and cry all day. I know that some stretching can ease my suffering a little bit, but I just couldn't bring myself to move at all. And today I actually got up and followed the whole video and I'm just honestly so thankful. Was it the exercise or that I managed to NOT think about the pain for a while, but it helped a little. Thank you for what you do!
Adriene does have a yoga for migraines video which has helped me at times. I hope you feel better soon.
@@TheresaCreager Thank you! I will surely try it out
In the behinning of this session I kept getting lost in thought, but Adriene’s gentle guidance kept bringing me back to my breath and by the end of the practice I felt so much more present and calm 😌 This community and the practices always make me feel loved and connected, thank you all for being here! ❤❤
Thank you, Adriene! My fiancé and I use the phrase “get of your head and into your body” all the time when we aren’t feeling well, and when you said that in this video that was even more proof that a little yoga was just what I needed! I’ve been practicing for years because of you, thank you so much for making yoga so accessible!
Good morning YWA fam, thank you for this practice. I worked up a sweat, and rewound the video a few times to hear more clearly what Adriene said. How present are we with how we're feeling can make a big difference for our mental health. and It all makes sense. Its great to be able to rewind when I notice myself almost shutting down at certain messages, because I believe those are the ones I need to hear, to grow. There's magic in being present. I believe it has the power to heal the world.
I came home after work earlier, and just had a uncomfortable sensation of anxiety in my whole body, along with a lot of rumination thoughts and a feeling of urgency...came to the mat and did this practice with you - now I feel lighter and more in my body! THANK YOU Adriene!
You are amazing. When I started the practice I didn’t think I could finish it today. With your guidance, I got out of my head & just let the body move. I finished!
I knew I needed this today after a stressful period of work. Cried like a baby in the end for the first time after practising yoga. Now I get it when people said sometimes they cry in the session. But the power of connecting to our bodies is truly amazing. Thank you so much for this practice, Adriene!
Thank you so much for your service to our mental health. Your practices help my PTSD.along with the community comments. I love these longer videos and your wise counsel.
Grateful for you weekly emails offering these practices. I don’t always do them but it is so nice to read them each week and then when I give myself the gift of practicing with you, my heart and body is reminded how good it is to do yoga with you. This was a GREAT practice and I will be sharing it with others ❤
❤ Perfect timing. My husband and I laid down for a break between weekend chores and this put us right back in alignment recharging us. Thank you! 😊
It took a while to get on the mat this morning - so glad I did! Does anyone really regret doing a yoga session? Thanks Adriene, you are so appreciated!
It's been so long since I've been on my mat (I am a new mom of twins), but you are so inspiring and always right on time. Thank you Adriene, for all these years with us ❤
I keep in mind to do this practice soon 😅😊
I like to believe I'm what I would call a recovery overthinker. I am trying to design a life where I feel more in the present. My tendency to overthink comes from past experiences and traumas that have led me to believe that I have failed. I know how hard it can be to get over those feelings when they come, and so do you. Yoga practice and meditation have been helping me cope, especially in the past few months when I'm thinking about new paths in life related to work and what I really want to do. Thank you for this time together. On certain days, it can be challenging to clear my mind and remain present. Namaste✨
Thank you Adriene, I really needed that. My husband and I have recently separated after 27 years, my mind has been everywhere.
Thank you so much - these days you have been the needed guide in my life.
This didn't feel like 30 minutes at all 🤍 and it was exactly what I needed. Sometimes I cry during my yoga practices but today I found myself laughing during the shaking of the feet and hands portion. Thank you always ☺
Every one needs Adrienne’s yoga in their life to lead a peaceful and successful life ❤
I love how you & Benji always make time to connect with each other during your practice. He’s been such a joy to watch all of these years with you. My 9.5 year old Sunshine shares my space & I treasure these moments with her.
I needed this especially after a long month of studio and song writing ❤ i need a break
This was such a nice practice and a great way to refocus the mind. Thankyou so much, Adriene xxx
Perfect way to get my Thursday going! ❤
My day without Yoga with Adriene never feels complete. Beautiful and restorative practice, thank you!!
so glad I’m early! I will be doing this meditation❤ i do struggle with overthinking alot. this helped relax me!
I loved this today, thank you so much! 💛🙏🏻 If overthinking was an Olympic sport, then I’d most definitely be a multiple-times winning gold medalist! 🤣🤣 This took me out of my head for a while and gave me some balance. I guess I should get in my body and “do more” and try to think a lot less. Thanks, Adriene! 🙏🏻
My work is very physical, my pay is low, my worries high, and life i general too fast. It's incredible what a bit of self love and self care can do for you. You are a magical being! Thanks X
Many good cues to bring our awareness back to our body and getting out of the mind.
I appreciate this channel so much, thank you for making yoga available to everybody🥰🙏
Thank you so much Adriene, you have such a wonderful gift you share with us🙏
Thank you! Wonderful to laugh out loud during yoga.
What a fantastic session. I am prone to overthinking and always seem to have a million thoughts racing through my mind. Lately, I have been very stressed due to starting a new job as a teacher for the first time. Adriene, you are telepathic. Your daily themes always coincide with my mental state or feelings on that day!!!
I feel so much calmer and better after doing today's new session. Thank you for being so kind and sharing all your hard work.
Sending you all lots of sunshine from Spain 🌞
You have no idea how you affect my mornings! Thank you Adriene💖
Before I started the video I was like I am not overthinking but new videos sure, but after the video I am amazed by how clear my mind is. Really appreciated! Thank you Adriene!
The perfect practice on Sunday, as I tend to get a little nervous and anxious for the week to come. I don’t know why, it just happens. So thank you Adriene, you’re a real lifesaver.
I am a chaplain of over 20 years… I know when stressed I need to move.. meditation… into my body movement. I think Adrienne’s kind, gentle and really challenging yoga has been the greatest find for my yoga practice and centering growth when I am stressed. The best yoga workout I have found in 4 years of searching. Thank you.
If only you knew what great timing this practice was. Thank you ❤
Day 6 of Rekindle 🕯 This was so beautiful to do this weekend as I have been letting my mind run wild and latch onto things, negative things, that do not serve. In this session, I will be letting go of these thoughts and breathing in love.
Thank you Adriene! ❤😘
I’ve practiced on and off with you since 2012, and there is nothing more comforting or healing than hearing your intro music and knowing we are together again for a little while, showing up for ourselves 🤍
I just finished your Power & Balance 30 min vid and got notified with a new one!
Cant express my gratitude enough for you Adriene, thank you for these
Getting married in 6 days and this practice really grounded me today. "Be here now" is really all we can do. Thank you, Adrienne!
I just bought a house and this was my return to the practice after a hectic few weeks of moving and doing repairs and I cannot thank you enough. I feel SO much better and so much more prepared for continuing to move forward.
Drove 9 hours in tense traffic today. This post helped me release all my pent up tension from that trip. Thank you 🙏 Your pace helps me stay strong through the entire thing & feel great coming out of the session feeling strong 💪🏼
This is exactly what I needed. My overthinking mind has been ACTIVE lately! It felt great to be in my body and quiet the swirling thoughts in my head. Thank you! Wishing everyone a beautiful day! ❤
As an over thinker I soo appreciate this practice. Thank you Adriene for spreading light into our lives❤
Adrian the ultimate overthinker 😄 don't worry girl I'm right there with you
This class was ironically just what I needed. I remember looking at the title thinking "that's not going to be much of a workout or flow class" but it deffo was in fact the right choice for me, I laughed, smiled and felt peace and serenity. I am always happy to share the mat and space with you Adriene. Namaste!
I didn't realize how much I needed this until I got started. Thank you Adriene for helping me get through life's challenges ❤
Namaste, I am grateful that the ancient wisdom of India and Hinduism (yoga and meditation) is appreciated and adapted all over the world now 🙏🏼
Dear Adrian. Thank you for all you do for us followers and your regular practitioners. Your charming humor makes me smile and laugh along with you in every workout. Your precise explanations allow me to feel the poses differently, and better, every time.
Hi Adriene, thanks for having you always when I needed you. From Abu Dhabi when I started and now here in Scotland you’re still with me with your yoga. I’m really convince the sound of your voice. Thanks my yoga teacher and take care always. Your 5 years student and counting❤ namaste
Thank you, Adrienne. Your work is helping millions of us function in a broken world.
I’ve been struggling immensely with my mental health for a long time now, and recently had to take a leave of absence from my job because it became so debilitating. I’ve been doing at least one of your videos almost every day since then, and I feel a massive difference. Thank you for focusing on both physical and mental well being, you’ve been so helpful for me. ☺️
Thanks!
It has been a while Adriene. Although still practicing in a studio.
I feel so at peace after your sessions.
You, your voice, Benji really are special.
Back on my 6.00am morning yoga with you
Forever grateful 🙏🏻

Day 21 of this months yoga calendar TURN. I'm really enjoying it so far. I loved today's yoga practice, it was so fun, and calming thank you Adriene. ❤ What you said about the yoga mat, is true for me too. I have cried a bunch of times on my mat, and laughed too. The yoga mat should be a place we come, and feel everything, but in a healthy way. Breathing, and moving with grace, while feeling all the emotions we need to. I love yoga for so many reasons, but this is one of them. As I struggle to let myself, feel things and give myself freedom. But I am working on it, thanks to you Adriene, and lots of other supportive people I love. See you on the mat tomorrow! 😊 Namaste. 🙏💜
