Everyone tells me to try yoga. I used to be very flexible, but 4 kids, depression and a job that demands you're on a computer over 8 hours a day have made my body evolve in ways that I never imagined. For the first time ever, I just completed 10 minutes of yoga. I didn't fall, I didn't quit. I wasn't embarrassed. I don't own blocks, but I was able to work without them. I felt alive and empowered because the instructor looks just like me. I can't thank you enough for helping me finally do yoga!
You can use hardcover 600+pages books as blocks - it's working, I do it.
@@branimirapenic2389 I'll have to try that as my cat has absolutely demolished the foam blocks I eventually broke down and purchased! 🤣 Thanks for the tip!
@@TheMichm1221 good luck. Game of thrones saga was the best :D
Wow you just described my life I am trying this now .
How’s your yoga practice now??
The damage that can be done if poses don't consider current body weight and strength is enormous. Glad to see this type of thing out there.
@Sonny Magnus Definitely, been using Flixzone} for years myself =)
@Sonny Magnus yea, been watching on flixzone} for since december myself =)
Yes! I did permanent damage to my knee from a yoga class where none of that was taken into consideration and I didn’t know better 😢
@@mswifeycatlady7583 omg what happened? I tried doing yoga last week and my knees have a minor pain when I’m squatting ;(
🎯🎯
This is the only video that i repeatedly comeback to. I was so disheartened trying the other "beginner" videos here on youtube; they all make it seem so seamless and easy, but if you're a true beginner, then your body isn't used to these movements. I always felt shame in myself when I couldn't do the poses they were showing. I'm glad to have found this channel, as even though I still struggle with some of the moves, I feel empowered. It's slow enough I can follow along without getting bored or irritated, and it's wonderfully voiced (very calming, non judgmental tone, and very descriptive) Being plus size, I'm glad to have found a teacher that looks like me and uses movements that are body-shape friendly. Thank you!!
Yay finally a PLUS size BEGINNERS yoga stretch! No threading the needle haha! I can't bend in those positions because my fat gets in the way. I still couldn't sit on my heels at the end tho, my feet and ankles hurt to do that.
I sometimes put a cushion to sit on my heels supporting my ankles.
Same! My body, especially my belly, get in my own way. It's been really limiting my activities and it's hard to take care of myself when it feels like the exercises I was trying are either physically impossible or cause a lot of pain. I can't believe I didn't think to search for plus size yoga and workouts until recently, and I'm so glad I found this.
I just sat my butt down on that part 😂😂😂 sitting is sitting in my book
@@millenial90 not sure if you can swim, but I have a bad ankle and big belly too and swimming has really helped me build muscle so I can do more without hurting any of my joints.
just go to the gym
I’m trying this tomorrow. I gained weight not from just being home but I got Covid and had 3 strokes. My arms and legs are just starting to work again 5 months later. But I have so much more , body. I tried yoga today and did well but I can’t do many of the moves. This is helpful. Thank you!! See you soon.
Glad you're alive, friend. Cheers
❤❤❤
your body/mind is so strong for getting you through all that. you’re a badass
OMG, I hope and pray that you return to full health.
Glad to hear you made it through; I am not sure what I would do. So inspirig!
Love that this is for big girls and guys.. no reason they cannot do yoga too!! Thank you fir making these videos
Well that was a humbling experience. If you don't use it you lose it. I used to do it but that was 10 years ago and I've gained 135lbs since then. I tried to get back into it at the YMCA about 5 years ago and quickly realized how my weight had changed everything and it had become seemingly impossible not to mention I had suddenly found myself excruciatingly embarrassed. So I gave up. Fast forward 5 more years and I'm stiff as a board so here I am in my living room giving it another try. This video was just right for a plus sized, out of shape 40 year old like myself. It was challenging enough without being too hard and it felt really good to stretch and engage those poor neglected muscles. I'm going to try and do this everyday and hopefully morning and night until I feel comfortable enough to move on to something more challenging. Thank you for your video!
I am 45 and I have gained alot of weight unfortunately I haven't worked out in years and I cant do the stretches and mountain climber exercises like I used to 6 years ago. I will try this yoga.
Same here. I'm so grateful for "plus size" yoga
Trust me I understand and in my situation I am 28 and have as much energy as the next, but being on the more plus size. After doing this, I’ve come to realize just how stiff my body really is, how imbalanced I am, and just how much leg/knee strength I don’t have. I wholeheartedly agree with the “if you don’t use, it you lose it” statement. I guess we just have to take everything one step at a time until we finally get it right and comfortable. I wish you the best ❤️
Is there an update? Did you stick with it
How’s it going for you??
Thank you so much for this video. I was holding back the tears because I am overweight and the poses other yoga workouts required made me want to vomit and faint. I thought I would not be able to do a workout until I lost more weight. Your video has helped me so so much. I felt so terrible about my self, you have given me a workout but also hope. Thank you so much.
you can do it! This flow is a great start I think, but with time you will be able to do also other poses as you gain flexibility, first you have to "teach" your body and then you can do more even with the extra weight! Some yoga poses are of course impossible for us, but when I started I thought "impossible" for allmost everything, even for similar excersize Edyn is showing. But with time (only 1x Week) it got much better and I was eventually able to do other things - it is a great feeling :)
Really, Everytime i see only slim and trim person's are doing workout or any other excercises..
But this is really amazing 😍🥰keep it up dear 💕
I almost cried while practicing with you. I didn't have any issue with the poses and to see a body like mine moving through the poses helped me realise I'm not 'doing it wrong', I just have a shape that needs accommodation. Thank you, so much
Finally someone that truly knows how to help the plus size community. Her voice is so calming too. I enjoyed this session
I purposely searched for plus size yoga and yours was the first video I clicked on. I'm excited to start. At 49, 5'3" 260lbs and bad knees, I can't do alot of bending and being on my knees longer than a few seconds, this gives me hope and maybe with some strength and weight loss the knee problems will decrease. Thanks
I'm seriously out of shape and just started doing yoga after saying I was going to start for years. This is the perfect beginnners routine to get started for building up slowly. Thank you for the video!
Thank you so much! I weigh 290 lbs and am starting my journey🙏🥰
My mom is fat and she gets very insecure doing yoga with me and you’re a life saviour. Her seeing someone the same size as her doing yoga was a blessing for her thanks!
I love how you explained the positions, gave reminders, AND tips to make it a full length routine. Thanks and subscribed!
Looked up a yoga flow on UA-cam, started following it... another girl half my size in an IG worthy yoga suite, flowing thru instructions like she didn’t even break a sweat... ugh girl 🙄😩 then I found this video.. you may have very well restored my faith in yoga today. THANK YOU!! 🙏🏻 can’t wait to do all of your other videos now 😆
Love this!!! I haven't done yoga in YEARS and have gained a significant amouny of weight making a lot of "begginer" poses hard. I just did this workout to start my day and I feel so refreshed!
Thank you for this video. Thank you for giving me confidence and inspiration to move my larger sized body.
I just assumed all yoga feels the same when it doesn't. Every body type and beginning is just different
finally something i can keep up with but still feels like exercise thank you so much
Thank you!! Great beginner flow, i could actually do everything and felt the stretches -- it was a little challenging in just the right way. Thank you for mentioning modifications as you went. You might be the one to actually get me into a regular yoga practice ❤️❤️
This yoga video was exactly what I needed today. I actually brought my mat out and followed along, after not having done any yoga since 2020. Thank you for your kind energy Edyn!
This is exactly what I have been looking for! Thank you! I have just started my weight loss journey this last month, using noom. I have me nutrition thing figured out, but looking for good exercise for plus size people, or people with PCOS. Yoga is low intensity for me, which works for my issues. So glad to follow someone plus size just like me to be a yoga instructor 💕☺️
I am a slimmer frame but this is favorite short practice i’ve been doing this all week and you are truly amazing! your tone, pace and poses are a great combination. So grateful and for you and you’re time 🌴
Just started doing yoga and was so intimidated by it…this inclusive beginners yoga made me feel safe and I love that my body size is capable of this. Thank you!
I finally have my own space and room to do yoga in. Can I just say how happy that this was only 10 minutes?? It’s all I could take
I am so out of shape so I am glad to have exercise videos for everyone. Most of the stretches I can do but there's some that I struggle with that's because I am out of shape but I am needing to lose weight
This was by far the best yoga video I've ever followed along to! For once it was enjoyable, relaxing, a little challenging but not painful. You have a new subscriber! ❤️❤️❤️
My hands were killing me from holding my fat ass up 💀
Same here. Lol😊😊
I’ve found my people! Those of you who left comments, I can relate to so much of what you share! Appreciate this video so much! Thank you! ❤
This was great. I have severe rheumatoid arthritis and this was so much better than the disabled yoga videos. I honestly came outside of my comfort zone and found that I am capable of so much more than I thought. This will be my daily morning video now!!
I needed this so much today. Emotional start and this helped ground me. Blessings to you 🙏 💜💙💜💙
I feel you! ♥️ sending you positive vibes and healing
Thank you so much for posting this!! Finally, a plus sized woman showing us how to do yoga. Anytime we try something new and difficult, we either think we can do everything normal sized people can do and hurt ourselves, or think we can't do this or that because of our weight and never try. By having people like you as an example, we can see exactly where that bar should be and not give ourselves any excuses to get to it. Thank you so much! You are now my morning workout!
OMG this stretched me out so good and had me so calm. Thank you🖤
I recently experienced PTSD after ending an abusive relationship. I gained 70lbs in 3 months due to the trauma and overload of cortisol (stress, not eating, not sleeping). I am pulling my life back together and am truly excited that a video like this exists... I need to see someone my size acing my goals to get that needed boost to stay the course. Thank you for posting this 😊
I cried right after finishing this video. In 2019, I was in the best shape of my life and so proud of myself for losing weight and taking care of my body, I finally enjoyed working out. Then lockdown happened, I got COVID 6 times, and here I am almost 4 years later, over 100lbs heavier. Health problems have made me afraid to workout too hard. I'm in physical pain every single day as soon as I wake up in so many parts of my body. I was shocked at how difficult this video was for me. Our bodies were meant to move. I couldn't handle the other beginner videos I came across. Thank you for making this.
AMAZING start to my day, THANK YOU!!
I know you’ve hosted us here’s ago, but I am a plus size woman and I appreciate this so much. I am trying to take back my bodily autonomy. And yoga is where I’m starting. I cried through almost the entire flow but I got through it. And I will do it again tomorrow I love you and I thank you.
Thankyou! I cried at the end out of gratitude for you 🙏 💓 Now I feel strong, confident and comfortable in my skin and what I can do being a bigger girl now and learning to strengthen my body in its current state.
This was amazing! I loved the routine, and with a little practice I will be able to to all the poses correctly I no time. I feel so awake now, thank you! I wish the vocal instructions were on voice over though, like the ad, because the room made it hard to understand everything you said. Will come back to this one from now on
I cannot begin to thank you enough for making this video! This is the first yoga video that I've done where I wasn't frustrated the entire time but actually felt cosy and just good. Thank you so much
I am just getting back to yoga after being away for more than a decade. Thanks so much for this flow. I could do it and i will continue to practice with you.
really loved the pace of this, thank you!
Thank you so much! I haven’t tried yoga in several years. The first video I tried I had so much trouble doing and felt defeated. My body has changed a lot and I really appreciate that you led me through something I can do.
Trying so hard to improve the frequency I resonate with and on. Thanks for providing such a peaceful space for me to affirm myself in a positive space and prepare for my day. Thank you
me and a long distance friend of mine are starting to work out so that we are able to transition together and be more connected. i found this beginner video and i loved it! i will definitely be continuing to watch, and i would love to check out more of your vids! thank you so much for this!
You. Are. Amazing. I've never done yoga before because I was scared of not being able to do it because of my size! I was able to easily follow you through this video and I feel great! Thank you SO much for sharing your gift!!! 💜🙌
My first video with you ✨❤️ I have never felt more comfortable and confident about a practice video! Thank you for this❤️✨❤️✨
Thank you so much...you were my first shot at Yoga today and I feel absolutely amazing. I was getting so frustrated trying to find Yoga for bigger girls and you came in and saved the day.
Thank you for my early morning refresh! Was soooo nice to do this with the sun rising... great start to my day. Plan to do this daily until I get the poses right :)
Thank you so much! This is the first time in years that I’ve been able to focus on the practice and not on my body getting in the way.
I’ve been telling myself I needed to go do yoga, and I am so beyond thankful to have stumbled upon your video & your channel!
Thank you, you made me so happy today!
I’ve been doing beginner’s yoga on and off for years for back pain, and this is the first time it’s been lead for me by someone with a body like mine. I had done all of these poses before, but I was honestly super surprised by how much of a difference it made. Thanks for this 💖 (also I have a herniated disc and am having surgery soon, and the triangle pose released a locked hip I’ve had for a week 😭💖)
Thank you so much ♥️ I’ve been using this to stretch and warm up before my workouts 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
Thank you for the video, queen! Recovering from a knee injury so I can't do the sitting down things yet but getting there!
I'm so glad to have found a video like this for plus size women like me and cannot do the physically-agile poses from the other lean bodied youtubers. 😭 More power to your channel!!!
Thank you for making me feel normal and not self conscious about my size when doing poses...love you videos...
I've done this so many times that I have it memorized now! It's so grounding and it's my favorite wya to warm up for a workout or just to feel like I'm back in my body. My husband loves it too-- he says his back feels amazing after (it really does!)
Today was my first time trying yoga, and i can honestly say the experience has been pleasant. Thank you so much for this.
I was struggling SO MUCH with downward dog with my weight, but watching you helped me correct my form and my shoulders and wrists thank you! This was wonderful!
Thank you for making this video! I'm just now trying to get into a healthier lifestyle and although I've always felt like I'd like yoga, I've been too intimidated because of my weight. This video is amazing for people who are wanting to learn, but hesistant.
Thank you for believing in your own ability! I'm glad I was able to lead you through this flow!
Thank you so much I really loved it! I'm currently on a weight loss journey because my weight is not healthy and it does not allow for maximum mobility. I am trying to incorporate exercise everyday except for my weekly rest day and I'm starting with low impact workouts that are realistic for my weight. Thank you, I thoroughly enjoyed this and had fun doing it!
This is so awesome, thank you for content like this. Seeing you do all these movements with such control makes me feel comfortable knowing I can too
I’m 140kg and I’m wanting to not necessarily lose weight, but I’d like to feel more comfortable in my body like I did 15-20kgs ago and I want to prioritise my health after being diagnosed with hypertension. I can be fat and healthy, but right now I indulge in too many bad habits and I want to change. I was a happy fat girl, but now I’m definitely feeling the pressures on my body and I just wanna be a bit better in my health. I’ve never been into yoga because it’s always been very difficult for me, both with my body shape and with my chronic pain. I’m really glad to have found your account because I really want to give yoga a try and finding someone who’s body looks like mine is a life saver.
Hi Edyn! Thank you so much for your video, it was one of the best yoga flows I've taken, I'll definitely be coming back for more. You're a great teacher and the work you're doing is so important for us ❤ The light in me sees/honors the light in you!
Thank you for posting this. I’ve been looking for a beginners video that takes a larger body into account. Subscribed.
THANK YOU!! It’s so helpful to see a fat body doing these poses. I was constantly struggling to work out what I am supposed to be doing when parts of my body are just in the way. I’ve given up on yoga so many times because of it, even though I really enjoy it. I love this routine, I am going to start incorporating it into my week.
I’ve been saying for 4 years I was gonna start doing yoga. And I found you. I start in the morning, I can’t wait!
I’m plus size and pregnant and trying yoga to relieve stress and stay active. Thank you for this relatable version♥️
I loved this beginner yoga, I am new to yoga and about 75 pds overweight and I could do this. Only complaint I would have is the music is too loud while you are going into each pose and I could hardly hear you and had to look up a lot but with doing this daily I will know the routine more and it won’t be a issue. Thank you!
I normally don’t comment on videos but I had to say thanks. I’m 3 weeks in to my diet and been a little more physical at work. This really helped loosen me up 👌🏻😙
THANK YOU!! I had tuned into a beginners yoga stretching routine. The instructor was probably 100-120 lbs. I’m 265 and a beginner. I could tell during the process the moves didn’t take into consideration my body and weight. I searched for one that was in tune with my plus size and there you were!! So many people who instruct don’t reflect my current state or even for women who are naturally designed with a warrior frame, they wait until they’ve achieved their goals. But, you did this!! Thank you, I’m subscribing and I will bold and confident to do the same for my team! Gratitude & Love 💗
And yes, I almost injured myself.
I have tried so many at home yoga videos an I can honestly say as a big gurll that was by far my favourite one!!! Thank you!
Thank you for this, it's helping me feel more confident in attempting yoga! You are absolutely wonderful
Thank you! That was doable yet it got me stretching!
Thank you so much, I am new to yoga and being plus size I've always been scared. You are truly a inspiration ✨️
Thank you so much for this... finally a morning yoga flow that I can do without discomfort.
Thank you, much appreciated 💖 Really needed this session today.
Wow. Amazing, this is exactly what I needed. Thank you❤️
Thank you!!! I've been put off by doing yoga because the poses have been difficult with my weight. This video is the first in my weight loss journey!
I have learned that I have no upper body strength and my left leg balancing is very weak 😅 Excited to see my progress moving forward as there is much progress to make 🤗
This was so incredibly helpful - thank you!!!
Thank you for this. I am a new fat and was feeling discouraged about getting back into yoga. Not so much after doing this set. Thank you
This flow was so relaxing. Thank you for sharing.
Best beginner yoga video ever! Thank you! 💕
This is perfect for my level and after dealing with illness, thank you so much. I am hoping my posture will get better, and I will regain a bit of my flexibility. Right now everything just pops.
Thank you! I’ve found one more exercise activity to my health journey routine.
thank you so much for this practice, so simple but perfect and just what i needed.
This was wonderful. Really was able to keep up and not injure myself in the process. Thank you!
I recently had gastric bypass surgery and need a work out I can do without causung damage due to my excess weight. Thank you so much for this class, I Will add this to my weekly workouts 💙
Thank you! It's been over a year since I have done any yoga. Today was like opening dusty cupboards and beginning to clean out the cobwebs. My muscles so grateful the much needed attention.
Thank you so much for your video. I really enjoyed learning from you. I'm new to the yoga journey.
Girl I have always hated yoga but I genuinely wanted some more after this! It was easy and I didn’t feel any judgement 😂 I had to redo my low squat and that’s fine!
It’s been a while since I adopted physical activity..(at my own pace)I found this to be very helpful as I struggle with RA and many other auto immune decease Thank you 🙏🏼
I needed this omg thank you thank you thank you
Glad I found this video. I really enjoyed this. Thank you
Oh boy I just tried this and it’s so hard I will be back every day until I get it. Thank you so much for being inclusive.
So glad to finally see this 🙏🏽 thank you Edyn Loves Life 💜
Before trying to follow you, I watched the video and thought I am not flexible enough to follow her.
Than I gave a try, thankfully!!
Thanks to you I saw I can follow some exercise seasons~~
I will keep following up on your videos!!!
Thank you so much!!!!
