I can't believe how miserable I've become with constant swings from suicidal thoughts to being numb. I pray for peace for everyone going through rough times. I'm too trying my best fighting daily. Let's hope that I'm able to make through it.
I'm also going through this thing. I feel like a completely different person now. People around me think I'm normal just like before but I don't know why I'm not feeling like myself anymore
Wow. I thought I was the only one feeling this. I developed health anxiety in this whole shit storm of a pandemic and I'm only now finding my way out. My thoughts were so repetitive and mean and I couldn't breathe. I look like myself but I felt like there was nothing left of myself. The only thing that's been getting me through is doing mindfulness and challenging my thoughts. I am beginning to heal now and I hope you are too x
My anxiety is killing me day by day now... It is out of control I am giving up, cant take it anymore... It is so bloody hard...Every day i feel like i cant breathe and it freaks me out.
to everyone who may come across this: you're probably here to help with your mental health, and i just want you to know that you are so loved and appreciated, even if it feels like you aren't. i may never have met you but i care about you, and i know that you deserve happiness and peace in your life. i'm so proud of you for how far you've come and for just being here and existing. it's not easy. look after yourself and others close to you. the world is better with you in it and you make someone's time here more bearable 💗💗💗
What kind of mushrooms do you take to make you feel this way about others while they all take your personal information and sell it (aka patriot act) so you can be stalked everyday for your personal habits and bank account.
I’m a 20 year old college student who moved back home because of coronavirus. I have pretty frequent panic attacks, but recently they’ve been even more severe because of the pandemic. Today I felt one coming on, and I immediately grabbed my mat and went outside to do this practice. Words cannot express how much it helped. It helped clear my mind, gave me that rush of endorphins that my body so desperately needs, and it gave me hope for handling my anxiety and panic attacks through yoga. Thank you, Adrienne.
Hello i can highly recommend the herb ashwagandha for stress and anxiety and walking barefoot on grass or on the beach. Hope you are feeling better! warmest wishes Louise
I just started my freshman year of college during a global pandemic and the anxiety has become unbearable, both mentally and physically. Even on days like today where I struggle to even attend my classes, these videos make me feel like at least I showed up for myself even if that's the only thing I can bring myself to do. I've made it a ritual to read these comments after my practice because it is so comforting to know that I am not alone, and we are all here together struggling with the same things. Thank you, Adriene, for the videos and for building this community.
all things shall pass and we are all in this mess together now going on the 3rd year of Pandemic and massive political unrest and division. So, don't make yourself sick as you may feel that everything is out of your control, it's not . And don't be so hard on yourself as you are dealing and doing the best that you can, one day at a time, maybe a new word, song, poem, principle etc, it doesn't matter.. Learn just one good thing a day, one positive thing each day and really learn it, this is enough and many years down the road you will see how amazing the build up of just 1 single, positive a day has made, this is without fail. Peace !
Just finished this practice and it really helped. Anyone whose scrolling and wondering if it'll help - I was feeling insecure and anxious beforehand and now I feel calmer and more connected to my heart. Sending lot of positive vibes to anyone that needs it today
Jesus Christ is the propitiation for the whole world's sins. They that believeth and are baptized (with the Holy Spirit) shall be saved; but they that believeth not shall be damned. Those led by the Holy Spirit do not abide in wickedness. *God is ONE manifesting himself as THREE;* the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit! Bless him! *For these three are one.* As I am led by the Holy Spirit, nothing I state is a lie, but the truth of God. Anyone who tells you differently is misinformed or a liar. They do not know God, nor led by him. Anyone who *claims* to be a Christian and is against what I am doing, and where I am doing it; the Holy Spirit does not dwell within them, they lack understanding. They know not God, read his word, and their religion is in vain. Do not hear them, they will mislead you, the lost cannot guide the lost.
When you trust in God and cast your cares (worries, anxiety, depression, suicidal thoughts) upon him, they will be NO MORE! Know that there is power in the name Jesus Christ! His name casts out demons and heals! The world is wicked, evil, and of the devil. I too, was a wicked sinner of the world before I opened my heart to God. I am living proof of God's work and fruitfulness! He is an active God who hears the prayers of his! God's children are set apart (holy) and righteous. The devil is a liar that comes to steal, to kill, and to destroy; that includes your relationship with God. Open your heart to God, repent of your sins (he will forgive you), and let him direct your path. Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands and purify your heart, lest you walk with the devil and follow him to hell.
I’m only 17 but I’ve been in therapy for 5 years. I have anxiety, depression, and ADHD, and I’ve attempted suicide several times. I’ve had a lot of adults preach meditation and mindfulness to me, but I always felt like it was uncomfortable and pointless. I recently had a stress-induced collapse (aka I passed out from burnout) and I decided I needed to change something if I wanted to feel better. After completing this yoga session, I felt myself start crying while I laid on the mat. I don’t know how long it’s been since the last time I felt truly held, supported, and loved. I know a lot of people like to be pushed to achieve their goals and enjoy being under that pressure, but I think a lot of us just want someone to be there while we stumble through our first steps. The world is already so cruel, so thank you for putting this out here for all of us who need someone kind ❤️
In the beginning when she said “You are here, the hardest parts are over” - I don’t know why but I broke down crying like a baby out of nowhere. I didn’t know I needed to hear that. Thank you so so so much for the videos and the love flowing from them, it means so much.
I read this bforee I started and thought, "I need to cry before I start this." So I did. Just finished my yoga. Whew! I think I can face the day now. I also may com back and do this practice one or two more times today as it was so healing. Thanks again, Adriene.
This was my first ever Yoga with Adriene video I did, I remember. I was wrecked with anxiety at the time and couldn't find any relief. It came in the form of this video, and healing came in the form of yoga, which forever changed my life. Here I am today, 129 days of yoga this year consistently! Felt so emotional coming back to this because, ironically it's just what I needed today after a stressful day at work. The universe really works in mysterious ways!
"I know the mind is powerful, but so is your breath." Dang, how true is this??? Been having anxiety attack for more than a week now. This helped me calm down a bit. Will be doing this everyday now. 😊
This made me cry, i broke down twice, once during the practice when she said "love yourself" and pulled it all together and kept going and the second one when she said "choose the light", its my first time doing yoga. Ive never felt so peaceful and calm, it made me let go of all my worries after having a hard time dealing with my anxiety lately. I've never thought yoga would even make me feel like this. Thank you so much! Namaste!
I think I just experienced my first panic attack the other day. I'm an xray tech and work 12 hour shifts. I felt like I couldn't breathe. My friend told me about this. I've never tried this before. I did break down crying in the middle of it. Thank you for this video!
In fact, this practice is a real elixir, an invigorating and healing balm for our body, mind and soul. Especially in times like these… Sending everyone love. Letting everything else go. Thanking the universe for the honor of being here, present in the moment. Take care, lovely pals. Namaste. 🤍🙏🏻
I’m here because I get morning anxiety a lot ever since I moved back to my moms house. Sometimes I even dread walking to the kitchen or getting out of bed. I put my yoga mat in front of the tv and even if I don’t have energy or I’m too anxious to do the yoga routine, just listening calms my nerves down so much. We appreciate you Adriene 🫶🏼
I think mostly anxiety reasons only breakup I can’t believe you have anxiety too because i have anxiety because i feel i am not good enough as i was before but you looks better and you are a girl as well you can find easily someone
To stop the anxiety, focus to God, know His word, His promises through the Bible, trust God and build your foundation to Him. Anxiety starts if we focus to ourselves instead to God, and also to lies of the enemies that they put on the human head. God loves you and cares for you ❤. The real battle is in the spiritual, anxiety and depression is a spiritual battle. It all lies from the enemy, it is not just a sickness even the other mental disorder or physical sickness it all starts in spiritual but it also effects and the cause is the way we take care also the temple of the Holy Spirit which is our body. If we do not take care our body, it is going to have sickness it also applies to our spiritual, if we do not feed the Holy Spirit His food which is the Word of God, it will be hungry. That is why we need God and have God in our lives, we cannot live without Him.
At the end, I put my palms to my third eye and saw the most beautiful bunch of red roses. They are a gift to anyone reading this who needs a little cheering up. You are loved.
I am here after having a night of panic attack and almost calling 911..... Anxiety is not just something we can switch off and learning to live with it has been my greatest challenge in life. But Im not going to give up and I believe were all in this together.
Almost have done the same on several occasions. This was never something I dealt with prior to COVID. Now it's a daily struggle. Yoga, exercise, and multiple guided meditations throughout the day have helped me at least move forward with the day. It's not that I'm any less afraid, I just have more courage now. You are not alone. I am sorry for your pain.
I beat the anxaety attacks 10 years ago. Then i developed tinitus due to some stress moments in my life so here we go again. Stay strong you can get trough it, dont ever give up find something that suits you and will help you deeply relax. 🙏
Sometimes I get so caught up in my negative thoughts that it leads to a slight panic attack. Through your practice I’ve learned to try to come back to reality and calm myself down. It’s okay to feel the way you feel but you can let go if it doesn’t feel right. You don’t have to judge yourself for your feelings and thoughts. They come for a reason but you don’t have to hold onto them if you don’t want to. As a wise yoga teacher once said (and is still saying!): "Find what feels good."
Hello i can highly recommend the herb ashwagandha for stress and anxiety and walking barefoot on grass or on the beach. Hope you are feeling better! warmest wishes Louise
That is so true! I realize it myself. I was really cheerful and everything felt normal and good until recently. And when you are in this anxious and/or depressed mood its like your brain switchted to its own dark side. So everything that is generated by it is rather dark. I also think accepting that this can happen it key and realizing your brain has te capability for happiness and joy is another.
I just started my masters and i’ve been struggling with anxiety. I don’t talk much in class because of my social anxiety and i go home and i beat myself up for it.. i feel so disconnected. Your yoga made me feel teethered back on earth. Thank you, adriene
Patricka Villasenor Not sure if you are still taking classes. My advice when you get home don’t beat yourself up. Read this: I’m so incredibly proud of you for getting your masters. Every day that you show up is a win day. You have great insight that would help others. If you didn’t give that insight today, you can share something next class. You got this😁
Darkness to the light is right, man. I've been following for years and have probably done every video multiple times through, but this one really hit the spot tonight. Holidays are an extremely emotional time for me and this really helped to take that edge off!
“Choose the light,” perfect mantra for everyone who is muddling through the darkest (shortest) days in our latitude. May this practice ward off the overwhelming feelings that can come with this season 🌞
After doing this session I thought about all the people out there with no resources and no support and that makes me very sad. It also makes me appreciate Adriene and all of the people who love her and support her! LOVE to everyone here!
I am left stunned after doing this. I feel so relieved and happy, I even teared up a little at the end. Thank you, Adriene, for creating this. I hope everyone is well and happy new year!
So glad I'm not the only one getting emotional! I'm lying here still just wanting to cry because that was so relaxing and loving at the end (it's been kind of a tough week for me, stress and anxiety-wise). Thank you, Adriene. I wish I could hug you right now 😄
Excellent Video clip! Excuse me for butting in, I am interested in your initial thoughts. Have you tried - Riddleagan Professional Beats Remedy (google it)? It is an awesome one off product for discovering a 7 minute mind power method for living your best life without the headache. Ive heard some pretty good things about it and my mate finally got amazing results with it.
As someone who experiencing with anxiety recently who cant get rest because of constant bad thought and overthinking most of the time this really helped me.
I started this hardly breathing, on the cusp of an anxiety attack. This practice helped me immensely, thank you once again, Adriane! You're a gift to this crazy world. 👏🏻
Last week, my family's dog passed away suddenly at only 2.5 years old. She seemed healthy and happy and full of love and life. She was a light in this dark year. I didn't do yoga for a week, since she passed, but today I finally made it to the mat, and I am so glad I did. Thank you, Adriene; you reminded me that I am strong despite my grief, and that in caring for myself I can stay grounded and calm. Thank you.
All I can say is thank you for this video. I’ve been doing this for 3 days straight now and notice a significant difference in my anxiety. This along with your neck yoga videos are everything. I keep a lot of my tension on my upper back and neck. Thank you. May this yoga help everyone! Thank you for blessing us with this.
Thank you! you saved me from a panic attack and a relapse. Instead of resorting to alcohol, like I normally do when I'm under this kind of stress, I chose yoga with Adriene. I did it crying most of the time but I feel so much better and uplifted. thank you, thank you!
Just did 2 yoga for anxiety relief videos of/with Adriene and I feel so much better. It's amazing that this is offered to us for free with no strings attached. It's such a gift. THANK YOU.
Same. I’ve never done the nose breathing before and by the time we were done, my busy, wound up brain was quiet. Amazing. Grateful for this Adrienne person who has brought yoga back into my life in such happy ways at such a needed time.
I had a gorgeous life. Don't understand all of a sudden there has been a drastic change in my life.. since few months I have been getting palpitations and panic attacks. Went to multiple doctors with n number of tests, but every single one of them says reports are absolutely normal and not a single problem in any of the tests. Except my heart rate gets high between 90-100 bpm. Earlier I have been on an average 65 - 70, but these days never goes below 80-85. Doctors haven't prescribed any medicines but they have advised breathing exercises and yoga is the solution for my condition. I have never been an overthinker but this thing really sucks 😑. Trying all things possible to let go off this stress. To all the people dealing with stress and anxiety, we will get over with this 100%. May god bless us.
I know this comment is years late, but have you ever heard of Mast Cell Activation Syndrome or POTS? Both of these conditions can be caused or worsened by covid, and they involve the symptoms you're describing. The layman's term for it is an "adrenaline dump." If it's not related to PTSD, panic disorder, or severe anxiety, I wonder if you could have one of these conditions? I had MCAS before the pandemic ever happened, but having covid has made my symptoms so much worse. I get things that feel just like what you are describing.
I've suffered a severe internalized panic attack in public today. I felt lost and got back home on auto pilot. For some reason I brought my yoga mat to the living room and searched for yoga anxiety on UA-cam. Your video popped up and you guided me safely through the experience. I managed to get back in my body and relax. Thank you so much. I'm looking forward to more of your routines! Keep it up. People like you are a gift to the world.
So I know this video came out 4 years ago, however I just found Adrienne by a recommendation from a friend, I was very sceptical that it could help me at all, first video and all, and .... I started crying at the end? When I was just laying on the floor, breathing, I started crying. I don't know if that was my body telling me "thank you" or what have you, but I really needed that. So thank you Adrienne :)
Wow that was a gorgeous yoga practice, thank you Adriene for that. I am someone who is highly anxious, I have Autism and spend most of my time worrying about things, worrying about people and getting things done and the big one I worry about is time. But you help me to just be in the moment. To think only of now, this time on the mat and my breath. Thank you so much Adriene for helping me find a place of calm in a world that is wildly anxious. You are the best. 🧡 Namaste 🙏
I agree this was a great practice ❤ my brother is autistic so I understand some of your challenges. I wish I could persuade him to try a little yoga as I'm sure he would benefit but as a young man he is almost certainly not going to listen to his middle aged sister 😅 He does utilise meditation a lot so at least he has some tools to use. Have a great rest of your day and I hope you're feeling even more better today 😊
@@loublou5886 yeah it can be challenging sometimes, but I've found Adriene's yoga really helps. I'm sure it would help him, all you could do is keep suggesting it. Men can be funny about things though, and I know with the Autism it can sometimes be hard to try new things. It's good he meditates though. 🧘♀️ I am feeling a bit better today thank you, its up and down at the moment. I hope your doing OK? Namaste 🙏
@@fluffyross2297 I'm glad you felt better when you wrote this:) Fibro is such an up and down thing isn't it. Drives me crazy that you never know how you're gonna feel the next day lol. Im not feeling so great today but I think the damp weather we are having isn't helping with joint pain. W e have had thunderstorms every day this week! On the upside the veg i planted with my grandaughter is thriving from all the rain/sunshine lol xx
@@loublou5886 thank you, I'm sorry to hear your struggling with your fibro, it is such an up and down thing. It drives me nuts to that I never know if I'll feel OK the next day. It makes life very difficult at times aspecaily when people don't understand. I know the thunder storms have been a lot lately, but at least looking on the bright side of things where not having 40C weather like last year, So silver linings .😁 I hope you feel better soon, keep going with the yoga it really does help. Namaste 🙏 🧡
@@fluffyross2297 ah you're in the UK too then. Crikey that temperature was crazy last year wasn't it!?! I really struggled at work but I would stop off at my daughter's on my way home and jump in my grandaughters pool haha. I'm the biggest yoga bore going. Whenever anyone says they have any issue, mental or physical im showing them adrienes channel 🤣 I'd just achieved my challenge to myself of doing every day for a year when I had to start my cancer treatment and couldn't manage to keep up everyday. Im recovering now so hopefully won't be long before I can manage every day again because yoga and epsom salt baths were the main things that managed to keep my fibro under control as much as anything can. I'm just about to go try todays but can't see me managing all of the 40 or so minutes lol
I had to take a break from Breathe due to being sick. This was a perfect practice to jump back into. Challenging, but also calming and restorative. Love to you all on this journey with me!
❤Thank you for filling my heart with gratitude! It is always a pleasure sharing this session with this wonderful community! Rowing away from darkness, and as Adriene said “Choose the light and LET IT GO!”! Go out and spread some shine today! 💖
You were a daily part of my life for nearly 3 years, Adriene. It's been over a year since I've watched you, and in that time my life has completely shifted in an unexpected direction. I can't explain how much it means to see you again, like a long lost friend that always believes in me. I love you, thank you. You are saving us. ❤️
I have been struggling with sleeplessness and anxiety I was sleeping only only 4 hours a day I tried lot of medicines nothing improved my sleep when I watched this video in UA-cam then I started doing this breathing exercises early morning daily slowly my sleep improved very much and my anxiety is completely gone . I should thank this lady she changed my life .
Thank you for this practice! I wish every amazing person who reads this a Merry Christmas and a happy new year filled with Yoga, love and gratitude. Happy Holidays!
I used to do yoga with Adriene years ago but got away from it. Turned to this video in my darkest hour feeling completely hopeless and like nothing could help. This video changed my life and saved me. Thank you, thank you. I now share this technique with all my therapy clients - and give you all the credit. So emotional watching this video back! I felt so seen and heard ❤
True story: I had an off-ish day because my daughter lost her favorite cuddly toy. We looked everywhere for it, even called places we had been to in the past day but concluded it was really lost. As I was laying down doing this video, I spotted it on top of some books on a shelf!!!
That's why you had a bad day? lmao be grateful you're not me with an anxiety disorder, today I broke down crying in front of everybody because I couldn't speak loud enough, it took me 20 times for the person to hear my order behind the meat counter at the store, I was going crazy. I tried saying it as loud as possible but everytime my voice got quieter as I put more effort into it.
I’ve dealt with mental health issues for a very long time and have been in a very bad time at the moment. I had to use this to even get up and moving around today. Thank you so much and much love for anyone who is dealing with anxiety, panic attacks, stress, and depression right now. Liebe ist für alle da. ❤️
The another cycle of corona, another school year with remote and in person learning and being laid off. Thank you Adriene for helping me stay clam, grounded and strong through this practice.
Calming, relaxing practice. Love the breath work to connect mind and body. Thanks Adriene and all YWA folk. Makes all the difference feeling I'm on the mat with others 💖
I didn’t want to show up today: not for work, for friends, nor for family. The thought of yoga didn’t even entice me. Despite being in an emotional pit, I decided I would try the first five minutes. All too soon, we were in savasana and whispering namaste 🙏. Thanks for this practice in more ways than one. Taking a few deep breaths can help one declutter the mind, allowing more room for creative and critical thinking. 💕🌸🧘🏽♀️
Thank you so much for this... My anxiety has been hitting me really hard to where it feels like I'm dying and I don't want it to control me so I'm doing as much as I can to deal with it/ make it go away. This really helped me relax a bit. I'm definitely going to do this daily. Anxiety is so hard to deal with but everyone dealing with it you are strong and can get through anything. You've gotten so far to let it control you. Let's beat this dang anxiety.
Be brave and stand up to him. Stand your ground and give him some of his own medicine. He can't physically hurt you, he's hurting you with words and knowing he's intimidating you, because you're letting him. I had to deal with this myself at work and you feel so free afterwards, the bully never dares to do it to you again and they treat you with respect. They melt when you stand up to them. It's scary but don't stand for it, gather your courage and the anger you must be holding in and next time, give it to him full force. The problem will be solved. Who is he to upset you like this? He's weak inside, a weirdo. Think of that, go for it and everything will be solved. For good.
susan l You can do it, don’t let it cloud your mind. Your mind is a steel fort, filled with beauty that shall not be touched by anxiety. I believe in you. ❤️
Day 10 of Bloom and my body continues to amaze me this month with what it is willing and strong enough to achieve! Even warrior 3 and some core work were achievable today 🙏💖
Cultivate Day 25: Two days ago I had a tooth extracted. I utilized the relaxation breathing that I've been practicing with YWA and remained calm throughout the procedure. Thank you, Adriene, for the tools you've taught me that I can apply to such a situation.
I've been struggling with the worst anxiety lately and this honestly helped so much. Your voice, humor, and compassion made me feel so safe, thank you.
I live in Alaska and suffer from anxiety and depression on a normal day, then throw in it’s our ‘dark’ time of year right now. Adriene starts out by saying, “if you need to move from the darkness into the light”. I swear she always says the exact right things on the days I really need to hear them. You’re truly a gift Adriene. 🖤🙏
Adriene's joy at her creaky old floor is so pure and infectious, I feel like she's set a brilliant example/given permission to find laughter and joy even in things which are "silly" or other people wouldn't understand. It was so lovely to see her so happy, especially in this practice
Blessed Beloved Beauties! Bloom Day - 10 is right on time once again. I feel so refreshed, and anxiousness has curved tremendously. I don't have time for an extended run before I instruct my next English class, yet I do have time for a quick 20 - mins run. Like Adriene often states, " A little goes a long way. " Best wishes, everyone! 🦋♥️🦋
About to get the mat out. We had to let our 12 yo golden retriever to take her final breath and sleep forever. She will always live in our hearts ❤ and at the moment we all miss her so much🙏, so today's yoga is for our golden lady🌺🌺🌺🌺
@Hanna Löfman You have my deepest condolences! 🙏🏿 May your golden retriever R.I.P. I remember our dogs 🐕 growing up Smokey and Snowball. Both were bull dogs. Although Smokey was a mix of German Shepherds breed. They were poisoned when I was a kid.
@@zuriwilson-seymore8939 Thank you Zuri💜, That is a sad thing to experience as a child😔. We were happy to spend those 12 years with her, so letting her to felt sad but it was her time.
@Hanna Löfman You're welcome! 😊 Yes, it was very sad. I still think of Smoky and Snowball today. In fact, I wrote a poem about Smokey in grad school. We definitely have to give thanks for the time we have with pets and people. 🙏🏿
I just want you to know that you are the BEST yoga woman on youtube ! :) You are soo sympathetic and nice :) your voice is healing :) Wish you the best ! :)
I needed this so badly… I only trust yoga with adriene when I’m panicky and when I woke up alone and anxious this morning before my job interview I knew I needed to figure it out on my own. But this video not only calmed me and my pain, it made me so grateful for Adriene and her channel :) thank you girl
I’ve been following Adrienne for years but with this virus plus anxiety in general I turn to her videos every day. Thank you Adriene for helping me through this madness 🙏🏼
Dear Adriene staffs, thank you once again for all the great job you are doing continuously to make the world a better place. In these days we are witnessing something sad in Afghanistan, I'm wondering "what can I do?" and I want to dedicate this practice to Afghanistan women, children and all men who are scared and suffering now. I thoungh: what about a sincronized yoga practice of all Adriene's followers dedicated to the people in Afghanistan? would that be possible? If so, you are the one who can organize it! Always grateful. Laura
I've been suffering with anxiety symptoms since 7th grade (I'm 19 now). Since the last year, my whole life turned upside down: I got diagnosed with BPD and Depersonalisation Disorder, I had to stand up to my abusive parents, I had to start taking the subway daily to get to uni which was extremely stressful to me and almost two months ago my boyfriend of 11 months broke up with me and left me devastated. Through all my pain, yoga really helped me relax and handle my anxiety. I hope you all relaxed with this, have an amazing day/night ♥️
Your videos are nothing short of miraculous. I am a complete beginner but have been doing it everyday since mid January and feel so much better each time I do it. It's the favourite part of my day now. Thank you.
Doing this practice as part of the YWA in 2021, this was yoga practice I didn’t know I needed today! I’m thankful for the peace that doing daily yoga has brought me.
I've been watching Adrien's video's for several years and I now as the world is going crazy, my dad passed away, the things I believed in changed rapidly and I found myself depressed and having panic attacks, her videos help me a lot to. I'm in the early stage of antidepressant therapy and CBT so it is scary and exhausting sometimes. Hope all of you are feeling better after practice and remember: we will overcome everything)
I’ve been struggling with very bad anxiety for the past year mostly due to the pandemic and sudden life changes. I want to try everything that I can do to better myself and my mind and learn to relax. I wake up at 6am every morning and do this yoga and it sets the mood for the day. I’m so happy I found this video. It helps me so much and I hope it helps you too.
Jumping back in after few months of not feeling like moving my body at all, it was difficult to put my yoga clothes on but as soon as you started talking i already felt better and knew I was back at it. First time commenting after years of watching your videos, thank you so much for making the world a better place, building such a beautiful community, helping me choosing the light and healing. Namaste ✨
This is my first time ever doing yoga. I suffer from severe anxiety, depression and PTSD. This pandemic has finally gotten to me as well. I spoke with my therapist and she suggested yoga and I laughed at her. Wow I’m shocked!! I landed in the emergency room three days ago and nothing helped but this video did! Thank you so so much I subscribed and will be back for more.
Countless times these past years I have done yoga with Adriene and thought "I should really say how grateful I am for you taking the time out to share these classes Always so full of joy and love and light.You are such a gift and a blessing, especially right now with what the world is going through. Honestly, i feel that consistently doing yoga has transformed my life for the better. I Notice how time has a way of slowing down. Time literally opens up and allows me to focus and get so much more good accomplished with my day. It's truly miraculous. It make me think about spiritual concepts of infinity of time and space.
Thanks so much for posting this. Just seeing it has made my cry. So many gurus are only willing to help the people that have money. People that are really in need of help, the ones in dire straights - the homeless, the poor, the addicted, etc - are left to fend for themselves. While I understand everyone needs to make a living, and don't begrudge them that, how spiritual can you be if you're only willing to help those with money? There's always something we can offer to those with less. So thank you for offering help to everyone. I know many women with traumatic backgrounds who will appreciate this video.
Thank YOU Adriene for adding this to the mix M feeling anxious n stress as I got some news about work ... so this serves as a good reminder - to allow and pause To reconnect w body n mind (not a fix by any means ... just space to step back and respond ... in time) Namaste to all practising and May you find ease within
Intention : breathe and choose the light I should say that this is a complete practice and I am happy to meet my higher self and honor where I am at regarding my progress and for this I am thankful Bless you and your team Adriene 🙏🤗😍 See you tomorrow beautiful souls 🙏🤗😍💚 Namaste 🙏
It's midnight now, after doing this whole sequence, but it was so worth it. I couldn't sleep because of anxiety, but now I feel wonderful. Thank you Adriene!
Back again, early for the may 2023 calendar, but again I just love this video! Super supportive, encouraging connection to breath, and lighting a fire in the belly, AND alternative nostril breathing! Namaste 🙏🏼 ❤
I was doing yoga every day for a while there. Then I moved, got focused on my new job and various social activities, and had stopped doing yoga for a few months. I almost forgot about the benefits of yoga. Last night, out of the blue, I had the worst anxiety attack I've ever had and I am not sure what caused it. Probably a lot of things. I couldn't sleep and I felt like I was dying. I was so distressed that I used an emergency benzodiazepine medication I had left over from a prescription years ago. It worked to get me through the night. Today, I started to feel the anxious feeling coming back. "Oh no," I thought, "I can't take the drugs again for this. I don't want to ask my doctor for another prescription and I don't want to get addicted to something like that. There has to be some way." Like a ray of light, I remembered how yoga has helped me before. "Maybe Adriene can help me." Thank goodness. I am sitting here now amazed at how this feeling of powerlessness, being lost, like I am worthless, and just anxiety overload, has all been released. I laid on the mat for several minutes after this practice chanting "Om shanti shanti shanti." I am so lucky that I know about Yoga with Adriene. I don't know what I would have done without this practice. With all of the things I get involved in in my life I sometimes get stuck in the attitude of "this is too important, I don't have time for my yoga." And so I push myself too hard. But remembering the importance of truly caring for myself and my energy, has saved me today. To anyone else who has struggled, you are not alone. Om shanti shanti shanti. We'll make it through.
I think as much hardwork we've put into doing this yoga, our heart and health appreciates it more than we think... To whoever reading this, I am so proud of you for what you are today and for what you will improve into tomorrow 🫂
Blessed Beloved Beauties! Breathe Day - 18 is right on time. Often, anxiousness kicks in, however, I combat it with yoga and meditation.🧘🏾♀️ I practiced a nervous system meditation followed by this session. Ah, coupled together it's, so yummy. It's time for a 🏃🏿♀️ run before a Cafe Slay event my husband and I are hosting at our home. Best wishes everyone! Namaste and Ase! 🦋❤❤🦋
@@williamb7275 I am doing fantastic! Are you feeling better? A Café Slay means an exceptional event with a Café theme. We entertained friends with vegan blueberry scones, bananas, celestial caffeine free fruit teas, and caffeine free herbal bareorganics coffee.😋 Thanks for asking!
I have been extremely stressed out. I didn’t realize how stressed out I was until I started to feel almost ill from it. As soon as I went into warrior 2 I let go of all my stress and cried. I cried for the remainder of the video but I feel so much better and I think I yoga is now my new favorite thing to do. Thank you so so much. Your words helped more than you’ll ever know.
I'm learning and forgetting and learning again that movement und being in the body helps so much with anxiety. It always feels so counter intuitive to me, because my nervous system responds to anxiety with freezing and it's so hard to get out of this. Thank you for this sequence! It's a big win for me that I'm even here
Day 25 cultivate! It wasn't so as easy as I had thought to be but I loved it since each pose sort of helped me stay present without being distracted, even no nonsense thoughts! I think difficulty of some moves help us stay connected! Thank you Adriene for your useful instructions!😍❤

I can't believe how miserable I've become with constant swings from suicidal thoughts to being numb. I pray for peace for everyone going through rough times. I'm too trying my best fighting daily. Let's hope that I'm able to make through it.
You will make it through it, I promise you xo
I'm also going through this thing. I feel like a completely different person now. People around me think I'm normal just like before but I don't know why I'm not feeling like myself anymore
I do recommend u to take help from homeopathic doctors
Wow. I thought I was the only one feeling this. I developed health anxiety in this whole shit storm of a pandemic and I'm only now finding my way out. My thoughts were so repetitive and mean and I couldn't breathe. I look like myself but I felt like there was nothing left of myself. The only thing that's been getting me through is doing mindfulness and challenging my thoughts. I am beginning to heal now and I hope you are too x
@@sallywalsh94 u are not alone
I hope everyone who is anxious feels better. It is so hard but we must hang in there and support one another on platforms like this
Yes anxiety and stress is very hard.May Allah recover all this type of patients. Ameen

My anxiety is killing me day by day now... It is out of control I am giving up, cant take it anymore... It is so bloody hard...Every day i feel like i cant breathe and it freaks me out.

I needed this. Thank you, Immy
Thank you, sister. Thank you for being a beacon of love💕

I’m a 20 year old college student who moved back home because of coronavirus. I have pretty frequent panic attacks, but recently they’ve been even more severe because of the pandemic. Today I felt one coming on, and I immediately grabbed my mat and went outside to do this practice. Words cannot express how much it helped. It helped clear my mind, gave me that rush of endorphins that my body so desperately needs, and it gave me hope for handling my anxiety and panic attacks through yoga. Thank you, Adrienne.
How are you now? Anxiety better?
Hello i can highly recommend the herb ashwagandha for stress and anxiety and walking barefoot on grass or on the beach. Hope you are feeling better! warmest wishes Louise
Im happy for u
Really
The very same situation brought me here as well. I hope it gets better.
I just started my freshman year of college during a global pandemic and the anxiety has become unbearable, both mentally and physically. Even on days like today where I struggle to even attend my classes, these videos make me feel like at least I showed up for myself even if that's the only thing I can bring myself to do. I've made it a ritual to read these comments after my practice because it is so comforting to know that I am not alone, and we are all here together struggling with the same things. Thank you, Adriene, for the videos and for building this community.
I feel ya
Same here. It's hard...but we're not alone in this. You're not alone in this. Sending love and strength! 💌🙏
Anxiety stinks and girl I am with you! Together we can overcome! It takes a village and support is sent out to you today!
all things shall pass and we are all in this mess together now going on the 3rd year of Pandemic and massive political unrest and division. So, don't make yourself sick as you may feel that everything is out of your control, it's not . And don't be so hard on yourself as you are dealing and doing the best that you can, one day at a time, maybe a new word, song, poem, principle etc, it doesn't matter.. Learn just one good thing a day, one positive thing each day and really learn it, this is enough and many years down the road you will see how amazing the build up of just 1 single, positive a day has made, this is without fail. Peace !
How are you now?
Just finished this practice and it really helped. Anyone whose scrolling and wondering if it'll help - I was feeling insecure and anxious beforehand and now I feel calmer and more connected to my heart. Sending lot of positive vibes to anyone that needs it today

Zlyaan
Jesus Christ is the propitiation for the whole world's sins. They that believeth and are baptized (with the Holy Spirit) shall be saved; but they that believeth not shall be damned. Those led by the Holy Spirit do not abide in wickedness.
*God is ONE manifesting himself as THREE;* the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit! Bless him! *For these three are one.*
As I am led by the Holy Spirit, nothing I state is a lie, but the truth of God. Anyone who tells you differently is misinformed or a liar. They do not know God, nor led by him.
Anyone who *claims* to be a Christian and is against what I am doing, and where I am doing it; the Holy Spirit does not dwell within them, they lack understanding. They know not God, read his word, and their religion is in vain. Do not hear them, they will mislead you, the lost cannot guide the lost.
When you trust in God and cast your cares (worries, anxiety, depression, suicidal thoughts) upon him, they will be NO MORE!
Know that there is power in the name Jesus Christ! His name casts out demons and heals!
The world is wicked, evil, and of the devil.
I too, was a wicked sinner of the world before I opened my heart to God. I am living proof of God's work and fruitfulness! He is an active God who hears the prayers of his! God's children are set apart (holy) and righteous. The devil is a liar that comes to steal, to kill, and to destroy; that includes your relationship with God.
Open your heart to God, repent of your sins (he will forgive you), and let him direct your path. Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands and purify your heart, lest you walk with the devil and follow him to hell.
I’m only 17 but I’ve been in therapy for 5 years. I have anxiety, depression, and ADHD, and I’ve attempted suicide several times. I’ve had a lot of adults preach meditation and mindfulness to me, but I always felt like it was uncomfortable and pointless. I recently had a stress-induced collapse (aka I passed out from burnout) and I decided I needed to change something if I wanted to feel better.
After completing this yoga session, I felt myself start crying while I laid on the mat. I don’t know how long it’s been since the last time I felt truly held, supported, and loved. I know a lot of people like to be pushed to achieve their goals and enjoy being under that pressure, but I think a lot of us just want someone to be there while we stumble through our first steps. The world is already so cruel, so thank you for putting this out here for all of us who need someone kind ❤️
"Be kind to yourself"❤
I can totally relate to you😭
❤️❤️
Stay strong u will overcome this soon🙂
i wish you heal from all your mental health issues. thankyou for sharing your story.
In the beginning when she said “You are here, the hardest parts are over” - I don’t know why but I broke down crying like a baby out of nowhere. I didn’t know I needed to hear that. Thank you so so so much for the videos and the love flowing from them, it means so much.
lol u a little girl to me
I read this bforee I started and thought, "I need to cry before I start this." So I did. Just finished my yoga. Whew! I think I can face the day now. I also may com back and do this practice one or two more times today as it was so healing. Thanks again, Adriene.
It’s so important to cry when you need to and always more cathartic than expected IMO. Listen to your body always, and find what feels good 🥰
OMG same
🥺🥺
I’m here because I can’t stop overthinking . Anxiety is the worst thing I have ever experienced. May this yoga work for me😓
Did it work?
Saskia Henfling now I will be doing yoga from tomorrow May it work
I’m so anxious lately! I can’t wait to try this 🙏🏼
Jessica N. How are you now🌸
@@riyabhavnani2692 how are you now? Feeling okay?
This was my first ever Yoga with Adriene video I did, I remember. I was wrecked with anxiety at the time and couldn't find any relief. It came in the form of this video, and healing came in the form of yoga, which forever changed my life. Here I am today, 129 days of yoga this year consistently! Felt so emotional coming back to this because, ironically it's just what I needed today after a stressful day at work. The universe really works in mysterious ways!
Did you get any physical symptoms because of anxiety
"I know the mind is powerful, but so is your breath."
Dang, how true is this??? Been having anxiety attack for more than a week now. This helped me calm down a bit. Will be doing this everyday now. 😊
It crazy how it's hard to over come it smh
How are you now feeling? Completely cured?
This made me cry, i broke down twice, once during the practice when she said "love yourself" and pulled it all together and kept going and the second one when she said "choose the light", its my first time doing yoga. Ive never felt so peaceful and calm, it made me let go of all my worries after having a hard time dealing with my anxiety lately. I've never thought yoga would even make me feel like this. Thank you so much!
Namaste!
Me too! I thought I was crazy.
I think I just experienced my first panic attack the other day. I'm an xray tech and work 12 hour shifts. I felt like I couldn't breathe. My friend told me about this. I've never tried this before. I did break down crying in the middle of it. Thank you for this video!
-you are loved
Same here, I think the love yourself part made me realize how hard I am on myself all of the time :/.

I’m here because I get morning anxiety a lot ever since I moved back to my moms house. Sometimes I even dread walking to the kitchen or getting out of bed. I put my yoga mat in front of the tv and even if I don’t have energy or I’m too anxious to do the yoga routine, just listening calms my nerves down so much. We appreciate you Adriene 🫶🏼
I think mostly anxiety reasons only breakup I can’t believe you have anxiety too because i have anxiety because i feel i am not good enough as i was before but you looks better and you are a girl as well you can find easily someone
@@vickyror4278 aààaaaaàaaaaq
To stop the anxiety, focus to God, know His word, His promises through the Bible, trust God and build your foundation to Him. Anxiety starts if we focus to ourselves instead to God, and also to lies of the enemies that they put on the human head. God loves you and cares for you ❤. The real battle is in the spiritual, anxiety and depression is a spiritual battle. It all lies from the enemy, it is not just a sickness even the other mental disorder or physical sickness it all starts in spiritual but it also effects and the cause is the way we take care also the temple of the Holy Spirit which is our body. If we do not take care our body, it is going to have sickness it also applies to our spiritual, if we do not feed the Holy Spirit His food which is the Word of God, it will be hungry. That is why we need God and have God in our lives, we cannot live without Him.
Great to hear

At the end, I put my palms to my third eye and saw the most beautiful bunch of red roses. They are a gift to anyone reading this who needs a little cheering up. You are loved.
I am here after having a night of panic attack and almost calling 911..... Anxiety is not just something we can switch off and learning to live with it has been my greatest challenge in life. But Im not going to give up and I believe were all in this together.
I feel you ❤️
Almost have done the same on several occasions. This was never something I dealt with prior to COVID. Now it's a daily struggle.
Yoga, exercise, and multiple guided meditations throughout the day have helped me at least move forward with the day. It's not that I'm any less afraid, I just have more courage now.
You are not alone. I am sorry for your pain.
I beat the anxaety attacks 10 years ago. Then i developed tinitus due to some stress moments in my life so here we go again. Stay strong you can get trough it, dont ever give up find something that suits you and will help you deeply relax. 🙏
You need deliverance
😢😢
Sometimes I get so caught up in my negative thoughts that it leads to a slight panic attack. Through your practice I’ve learned to try to come back to reality and calm myself down. It’s okay to feel the way you feel but you can let go if it doesn’t feel right. You don’t have to judge yourself for your feelings and thoughts. They come for a reason but you don’t have to hold onto them if you don’t want to. As a wise yoga teacher once said (and is still saying!): "Find what feels good."
Hello i can highly recommend the herb ashwagandha for stress and anxiety and walking barefoot on grass or on the beach. Hope you are feeling better! warmest wishes Louise
Thank you for the speech it literally made me cry....i just realized something about it
That is so true! I realize it myself. I was really cheerful and everything felt normal and good until recently. And when you are in this anxious and/or depressed mood its like your brain switchted to its own dark side. So everything that is generated by it is rather dark. I also think accepting that this can happen it key and realizing your brain has te capability for happiness and joy is another.
The most HELPFUL comment! Thank you, truly.
These slow, soothing practices are my favourite ! I hope that everyone has a lovely day x
I just started my masters and i’ve been struggling with anxiety. I don’t talk much in class because of my social anxiety and i go home and i beat myself up for it.. i feel so disconnected. Your yoga made me feel teethered back on earth. Thank you, adriene
The comment section also made me feel less alone in my struggles. This is such a wonderful community.
You are wonderful and will get through this ❤️
@@andreasummers1955 thank you so much! namaste!
Your comment just helped me feel more connected. I’m going through something similar and I can relate so much.

Patricka Villasenor Not sure if you are still taking classes. My advice when you get home don’t beat yourself up. Read this: I’m so incredibly proud of you for getting your masters. Every day that you show up is a win day. You have great insight that would help others. If you didn’t give that insight today, you can share something next class. You got this😁
Darkness to the light is right, man. I've been following for years and have probably done every video multiple times through, but this one really hit the spot tonight. Holidays are an extremely emotional time for me and this really helped to take that edge off!

Yoga With Adriene day 3
“Choose the light,” perfect mantra for everyone who is muddling through the darkest (shortest) days in our latitude. May this practice ward off the overwhelming feelings that can come with this season 🌞
I can't explain to you how grateful I am for all the effort you put in to making these videos. Truly, from the bottom of my heart, thank you Adriene
After doing this session I thought about all the people out there with no resources and no support and that makes me very sad. It also makes me appreciate Adriene and all of the people who love her and support her! LOVE to everyone here!
"Feeling a little panic-attacky" for sure 😭 So grateful that there is somewhere for me to turn to in times like these. Thank you...
I am left stunned after doing this. I feel so relieved and happy, I even teared up a little at the end. Thank you, Adriene, for creating this. I hope everyone is well and happy new year!
So glad I'm not the only one getting emotional! I'm lying here still just wanting to cry because that was so relaxing and loving at the end (it's been kind of a tough week for me, stress and anxiety-wise). Thank you, Adriene. I wish I could hug you right now 😄
+Mari CC I was crying too! It truly worked wonders for me. I'm excited about trying it again tomorrow!

Excellent Video clip! Excuse me for butting in, I am interested in your initial thoughts. Have you tried - Riddleagan Professional Beats Remedy (google it)? It is an awesome one off product for discovering a 7 minute mind power method for living your best life without the headache. Ive heard some pretty good things about it and my mate finally got amazing results with it.

I started this hardly breathing, on the cusp of an anxiety attack. This practice helped me immensely, thank you once again, Adriane! You're a gift to this crazy world. 👏🏻
Last week, my family's dog passed away suddenly at only 2.5 years old. She seemed healthy and happy and full of love and life. She was a light in this dark year. I didn't do yoga for a week, since she passed, but today I finally made it to the mat, and I am so glad I did. Thank you, Adriene; you reminded me that I am strong despite my grief, and that in caring for myself I can stay grounded and calm. Thank you.
❤️
Sending love to everyone here today!! You are loved, and enough.
All I can say is thank you for this video. I’ve been doing this for 3 days straight now and notice a significant difference in my anxiety. This along with your neck yoga videos are everything. I keep a lot of my tension on my upper back and neck. Thank you. May this yoga help everyone! Thank you for blessing us with this.
Thank you! you saved me from a panic attack and a relapse. Instead of resorting to alcohol, like I normally do when I'm under this kind of stress, I chose yoga with Adriene. I did it crying most of the time but I feel so much better and uplifted. thank you, thank you!
❤️
Good choice
Interesting that you found that alcohol helps you. With me, it triggers my panic attacks. This shows just how different we are ☺️
Just did 2 yoga for anxiety relief videos of/with Adriene and I feel so much better. It's amazing that this is offered to us for free with no strings attached. It's such a gift. THANK YOU.
This was so relieving, I’m shocked😂It actually brought me to tears because of how relieved I felt...I haven’t experienced this ever before...
same!!!
me too!
Same. I’ve never done the nose breathing before and by the time we were done, my busy, wound up brain was quiet. Amazing. Grateful for this Adrienne person who has brought yoga back into my life in such happy ways at such a needed time.
Same! I started bawling.
Hey. How long did it take?
I had a gorgeous life. Don't understand all of a sudden there has been a drastic change in my life..
since few months I have been getting palpitations and panic attacks. Went to multiple doctors with n number of tests, but every single one of them says reports are absolutely normal and not a single problem in any of the tests. Except my heart rate gets high between 90-100 bpm. Earlier I have been on an average 65 - 70, but these days never goes below 80-85.
Doctors haven't prescribed any medicines but they have advised breathing exercises and yoga is the solution for my condition. I have never been an overthinker but this thing really sucks 😑. Trying all things possible to let go off this stress. To all the people dealing with stress and anxiety, we will get over with this 100%. May god bless us.
Hey there, how r u doing rn?
Hey how are you now
I know this comment is years late, but have you ever heard of Mast Cell Activation Syndrome or POTS? Both of these conditions can be caused or worsened by covid, and they involve the symptoms you're describing. The layman's term for it is an "adrenaline dump." If it's not related to PTSD, panic disorder, or severe anxiety, I wonder if you could have one of these conditions? I had MCAS before the pandemic ever happened, but having covid has made my symptoms so much worse. I get things that feel just like what you are describing.
"The mind is strong but so is the breath."
The comments are amazing, I don't feel so crazy and alone.
You are never truly alone ❤️
you got this
Thank you ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
You're strong and you're not going through this alone. Thanks for sharing your experience.
soraay thank you ❤️❤️❤️
I've suffered a severe internalized panic attack in public today. I felt lost and got back home on auto pilot. For some reason I brought my yoga mat to the living room and searched for yoga anxiety on UA-cam. Your video popped up and you guided me safely through the experience. I managed to get back in my body and relax. Thank you so much. I'm looking forward to more of your routines! Keep it up. People like you are a gift to the world.
Hope ur doing okay now 🦋🌊⛓🧸🌻⛓
So I know this video came out 4 years ago, however I just found Adrienne by a recommendation from a friend, I was very sceptical that it could help me at all, first video and all, and .... I started crying at the end? When I was just laying on the floor, breathing, I started crying. I don't know if that was my body telling me "thank you" or what have you, but I really needed that. So thank you Adrienne :)
Wow that was a gorgeous yoga practice, thank you Adriene for that. I am someone who is highly anxious, I have Autism and spend most of my time worrying about things, worrying about people and getting things done and the big one I worry about is time. But you help me to just be in the moment. To think only of now, this time on the mat and my breath. Thank you so much Adriene for helping me find a place of calm in a world that is wildly anxious. You are the best. 🧡 Namaste 🙏
I agree this was a great practice ❤ my brother is autistic so I understand some of your challenges. I wish I could persuade him to try a little yoga as I'm sure he would benefit but as a young man he is almost certainly not going to listen to his middle aged sister 😅 He does utilise meditation a lot so at least he has some tools to use. Have a great rest of your day and I hope you're feeling even more better today 😊
@@loublou5886 yeah it can be challenging sometimes, but I've found Adriene's yoga really helps. I'm sure it would help him, all you could do is keep suggesting it. Men can be funny about things though, and I know with the Autism it can sometimes be hard to try new things. It's good he meditates though. 🧘♀️ I am feeling a bit better today thank you, its up and down at the moment. I hope your doing OK? Namaste 🙏
@@fluffyross2297 I'm glad you felt better when you wrote this:) Fibro is such an up and down thing isn't it. Drives me crazy that you never know how you're gonna feel the next day lol. Im not feeling so great today but I think the damp weather we are having isn't helping with joint pain. W e have had thunderstorms every day this week! On the upside the veg i planted with my grandaughter is thriving from all the rain/sunshine lol xx
@@loublou5886 thank you, I'm sorry to hear your struggling with your fibro, it is such an up and down thing. It drives me nuts to that I never know if I'll feel OK the next day. It makes life very difficult at times aspecaily when people don't understand. I know the thunder storms have been a lot lately, but at least looking on the bright side of things where not having 40C weather like last year, So silver linings .😁 I hope you feel better soon, keep going with the yoga it really does help. Namaste 🙏 🧡
@@fluffyross2297 ah you're in the UK too then. Crikey that temperature was crazy last year wasn't it!?! I really struggled at work but I would stop off at my daughter's on my way home and jump in my grandaughters pool haha.
I'm the biggest yoga bore going. Whenever anyone says they have any issue, mental or physical im showing them adrienes channel 🤣 I'd just achieved my challenge to myself of doing every day for a year when I had to start my cancer treatment and couldn't manage to keep up everyday. Im recovering now so hopefully won't be long before I can manage every day again because yoga and epsom salt baths were the main things that managed to keep my fibro under control as much as anything can. I'm just about to go try todays but can't see me managing all of the 40 or so minutes lol
I had to take a break from Breathe due to being sick. This was a perfect practice to jump back into. Challenging, but also calming and restorative. Love to you all on this journey with me!
❤Thank you for filling my heart with gratitude! It is always a pleasure sharing this session with this wonderful community! Rowing away from darkness, and as Adriene said “Choose the light and LET IT GO!”! Go out and spread some shine today! 💖
Whoever comes across this message, I wish you great success , health , love and happiness! Have a good day
I'm almost annoyed at how much better I feel after just investing 20 mins. Thank You!
You were a daily part of my life for nearly 3 years, Adriene. It's been over a year since I've watched you, and in that time my life has completely shifted in an unexpected direction.
I can't explain how much it means to see you again, like a long lost friend that always believes in me.
I love you, thank you. You are saving us. ❤️
Thanks!
You're the best
I have been struggling with sleeplessness and anxiety I was sleeping only only 4 hours a day I tried lot of medicines nothing improved my sleep when I watched this video in UA-cam then I started doing this breathing exercises early morning daily slowly my sleep improved very much and my anxiety is completely gone .

I used to do yoga with Adriene years ago but got away from it. Turned to this video in my darkest hour feeling completely hopeless and like nothing could help. This video changed my life and saved me. Thank you, thank you. I now share this technique with all my therapy clients - and give you all the credit. So emotional watching this video back! I felt so seen and heard ❤
I don't think you're fully capable of understanding just how much your videos help... I really want to give you a hug
True story: I had an off-ish day because my daughter lost her favorite cuddly toy. We looked everywhere for it, even called places we had been to in the past day but concluded it was really lost. As I was laying down doing this video, I spotted it on top of some books on a shelf!!!
Gijs Groenteman I’m so glad your little girl has her favorite toy back.
So great! 😁
Ohh that's such a good story!!! I needed a good laugh. Thank you
... i waiting to for the winning lottery ticket numbers to come to mind...
That's why you had a bad day? lmao be grateful you're not me with an anxiety disorder, today I broke down crying in front of everybody because I couldn't speak loud enough, it took me 20 times for the person to hear my order behind the meat counter at the store, I was going crazy. I tried saying it as loud as possible but everytime my voice got quieter as I put more effort into it.
I’ve dealt with mental health issues for a very long time and have been in a very bad time at the moment. I had to use this to even get up and moving around today. Thank you so much and much love for anyone who is dealing with anxiety, panic attacks, stress, and depression right now.
Liebe ist für alle da. ❤️
The another cycle of corona, another school year with remote and in person learning and being laid off. Thank you Adriene for helping me stay clam, grounded and strong through this practice.
Wanna get advanced yoga classes ?
Calming, relaxing practice. Love the breath work to connect mind and body. Thanks Adriene and all YWA folk. Makes all the difference feeling I'm on the mat with others 💖

This is s blessing for those who suffer from anxiety but also great if you don't. Thank you Adriene xx Namaste 💟💟
Clicking on your profile says you have recieved 566 hearts from Adrienne wtf???!!!!
I didn’t want to show up today: not for work, for friends, nor for family. The thought of yoga didn’t even entice me. Despite being in an emotional pit, I decided I would try the first five minutes. All too soon, we were in savasana and whispering namaste 🙏.
Thanks for this practice in more ways than one. Taking a few deep breaths can help one declutter the mind, allowing more room for creative and critical thinking. 💕🌸🧘🏽♀️

Thank you so much for this... My anxiety has been hitting me really hard to where it feels like I'm dying and I don't want it to control me so I'm doing as much as I can to deal with it/ make it go away. This really helped me relax a bit. I'm definitely going to do this daily. Anxiety is so hard to deal with but everyone dealing with it you are strong and can get through anything. You've gotten so far to let it control you. Let's beat this dang anxiety.
Be brave and stand up to him. Stand your ground and give him some of his own medicine. He can't physically hurt you, he's hurting you with words and knowing he's intimidating you, because you're letting him. I had to deal with this myself at work and you feel so free afterwards, the bully never dares to do it to you again and they treat you with respect. They melt when you stand up to them. It's scary but don't stand for it, gather your courage and the anger you must be holding in and next time, give it to him full force. The problem will be solved. Who is he to upset you like this? He's weak inside, a weirdo. Think of that, go for it and everything will be solved. For good.
Tammibear1997 ...im suffering from generalised anxiety disorder...it sucks..n evrydy feels like hell
@@Dollyboots1 Great going Dolly this yoga really helps
susan l You can do it, don’t let it cloud your mind. Your mind is a steel fort, filled with beauty that shall not be touched by anxiety. I believe in you. ❤️
Thank you. It’s good to know we are not alone in this x
Day 10 of Bloom and my body continues to amaze me this month with what it is willing and strong enough to achieve! Even warrior 3 and some core work were achievable today 🙏💖
Yay! 🎉 Congrates, yogi friend! 😊
Cultivate Day 25: Two days ago I had a tooth extracted. I utilized the relaxation breathing that I've been practicing with YWA and remained calm throughout the procedure. Thank you, Adriene, for the tools you've taught me that I can apply to such a situation.
I've been struggling with the worst anxiety lately and this honestly helped so much. Your voice, humor, and compassion made me feel so safe, thank you.
I legit yelled "Oh my god, THANKS DUDE" the second it ended. I needed this sooo, so badly Adrienne. From the bottom of my soul - thank you.
I live in Alaska and suffer from anxiety and depression on a normal day, then throw in it’s our ‘dark’ time of year right now. Adriene starts out by saying, “if you need to move from the darkness into the light”. I swear she always says the exact right things on the days I really need to hear them. You’re truly a gift Adriene. 🖤🙏
Adriene's joy at her creaky old floor is so pure and infectious, I feel like she's set a brilliant example/given permission to find laughter and joy even in things which are "silly" or other people wouldn't understand. It was so lovely to see her so happy, especially in this practice
Blessed Beloved Beauties! Bloom Day - 10 is right on time once again. I feel so refreshed, and anxiousness has curved tremendously. I don't have time for an extended run before I instruct my next English class, yet I do have time for a quick 20 - mins run. Like Adriene often states, " A little goes a long way. " Best wishes, everyone! 🦋♥️🦋
About to get the mat out. We had to let our 12 yo golden retriever to take her final breath and sleep forever. She will always live in our hearts ❤ and at the moment we all miss her so much🙏, so today's yoga is for our golden lady🌺🌺🌺🌺
@Hanna Löfman You have my deepest condolences! 🙏🏿 May your golden retriever R.I.P. I remember our dogs 🐕 growing up Smokey and Snowball. Both were bull dogs. Although Smokey was a mix of German Shepherds breed. They were poisoned when I was a kid.
@@zuriwilson-seymore8939 Thank you Zuri💜, That is a sad thing to experience as a child😔. We were happy to spend those 12 years with her, so letting her to felt sad but it was her time.
@Hanna Löfman You're welcome! 😊 Yes, it was very sad. I still think of Smoky and Snowball today. In fact, I wrote a poem about Smokey in grad school. We definitely have to give thanks for the time we have with pets and people. 🙏🏿
I just want you to know that you are the BEST yoga woman on youtube ! :) You are soo sympathetic and nice :) your voice is healing :)
Wish you the best ! :)
Completely agree with this her voice is so calming!
I needed this so badly… I only trust yoga with adriene when I’m panicky and when I woke up alone and anxious this morning before my job interview I knew I needed to figure it out on my own. But this video not only calmed me and my pain, it made me so grateful for Adriene and her channel :) thank you girl
Hey how ure feeling now with yoga n health
I’ve been following Adrienne for years but with this virus plus anxiety in general I turn to her videos every day. Thank you Adriene for helping me through this madness 🙏🏼
Dear Adriene staffs, thank you once again for all the great job you are doing continuously to make the world a better place. In these days we are witnessing something sad in Afghanistan, I'm wondering "what can I do?" and I want to dedicate this practice to Afghanistan women, children and all men who are scared and suffering now. I thoungh: what about a sincronized yoga practice of all Adriene's followers dedicated to the people in Afghanistan? would that be possible? If so, you are the one who can organize it! Always grateful. Laura
Wonderful suggestion Laura!
Dont you just Love how sometimes youtubes 1st suggestion is the perfect reccomendation, We Love you Adriene
I've been suffering with anxiety symptoms since 7th grade (I'm 19 now). Since the last year, my whole life turned upside down: I got diagnosed with BPD and Depersonalisation Disorder, I had to stand up to my abusive parents, I had to start taking the subway daily to get to uni which was extremely stressful to me and almost two months ago my boyfriend of 11 months broke up with me and left me devastated. Through all my pain, yoga really helped me relax and handle my anxiety. I hope you all relaxed with this, have an amazing day/night ♥️
Your videos are nothing short of miraculous. I am a complete beginner but have been doing it everyday since mid January and feel so much better each time I do it. It's the favourite part of my day now. Thank you.
Doing this practice as part of the YWA in 2021, this was yoga practice I didn’t know I needed today! I’m thankful for the peace that doing daily yoga has brought me.
I've been watching Adrien's video's for several years and I now as the world is going crazy, my dad passed away, the things I believed in changed rapidly and I found myself depressed and having panic attacks, her videos help me a lot to. I'm in the early stage of antidepressant therapy and CBT so it is scary and exhausting sometimes. Hope all of you are feeling better after practice and remember: we will overcome everything)
Whoa, I haven’t felt this light in weeks. Stress has been weighing me down. So thankful for this practice.
Thank you Adriene ☀️
Day 20 Bloom May’23
See you tomorrow 🧘🏻♀️
Namaste 🙏🏻
I’ve been struggling with very bad anxiety for the past year mostly due to the pandemic and sudden life changes. I want to try everything that I can do to better myself and my mind and learn to relax. I wake up at 6am every morning and do this yoga and it sets the mood for the day. I’m so happy I found this video. It helps me so much and I hope it helps you too.
I'm so grateful for this practice today.

"Choose the Light" brought tears to my eyes today...not clear why the tears but I needed to hear that, thank you.
Jumping back in after few months of not feeling like moving my body at all, it was difficult to put my yoga clothes on but as soon as you started talking i already felt better and knew I was back at it. First time commenting after years of watching your videos, thank you so much for making the world a better place, building such a beautiful community, helping me choosing the light and healing. Namaste ✨
Tack!
This is my first time ever doing yoga. I suffer from severe anxiety, depression and PTSD. This pandemic has finally gotten to me as well. I spoke with my therapist and she suggested yoga and I laughed at her. Wow I’m shocked!! I landed in the emergency room three days ago and nothing helped but this video did! Thank you so so much I subscribed and will be back for more.
Countless times these past years I have done yoga with Adriene and thought "I should really say how grateful I am for you taking the time out to share these classes Always so full of joy and love and light.You are such a gift and a blessing, especially right now with what the world is going through. Honestly, i feel that consistently doing yoga has transformed my life for the better. I Notice how time has a way of slowing down. Time literally opens up and allows me to focus and get so much more good accomplished with my day. It's truly miraculous. It make me think about spiritual concepts of infinity of time and space.
Thanks so much for posting this. Just seeing it has made my cry. So many gurus are only willing to help the people that have money. People that are really in need of help, the ones in dire straights - the homeless, the poor, the addicted, etc - are left to fend for themselves. While I understand everyone needs to make a living, and don't begrudge them that, how spiritual can you be if you're only willing to help those with money? There's always something we can offer to those with less. So thank you for offering help to everyone. I know many women with traumatic backgrounds who will appreciate this video.
Thank YOU Adriene for adding this to the mix
M feeling anxious n stress as I got some news about work ... so this serves as a good reminder - to allow and pause
To reconnect w body n mind (not a fix by any means ... just space to step back and respond ... in time)
Namaste to all practising and May you find ease within
Intention : breathe and choose the light
I should say that this is a complete practice and I am happy to meet my higher self and honor where I am at regarding my progress and for this I am thankful
Bless you and your team Adriene 🙏🤗😍
See you tomorrow beautiful souls 🙏🤗😍💚
Namaste 🙏
Hey Sophie 👋 how u doing now, namaste frm india 😇🙏
I started this practice in tears and ended with peace. This was such a wonderful series of movements. Thank you Adriene.
It's midnight now, after doing this whole sequence, but it was so worth it. I couldn't sleep because of anxiety, but now I feel wonderful. Thank you Adriene!
Back again, early for the may 2023 calendar, but again I just love this video! Super supportive, encouraging connection to breath, and lighting a fire in the belly, AND alternative nostril breathing! Namaste 🙏🏼 ❤
I was doing yoga every day for a while there. Then I moved, got focused on my new job and various social activities, and had stopped doing yoga for a few months. I almost forgot about the benefits of yoga. Last night, out of the blue, I had the worst anxiety attack I've ever had and I am not sure what caused it. Probably a lot of things. I couldn't sleep and I felt like I was dying. I was so distressed that I used an emergency benzodiazepine medication I had left over from a prescription years ago. It worked to get me through the night.
Today, I started to feel the anxious feeling coming back. "Oh no," I thought, "I can't take the drugs again for this. I don't want to ask my doctor for another prescription and I don't want to get addicted to something like that. There has to be some way." Like a ray of light, I remembered how yoga has helped me before. "Maybe Adriene can help me." Thank goodness. I am sitting here now amazed at how this feeling of powerlessness, being lost, like I am worthless, and just anxiety overload, has all been released. I laid on the mat for several minutes after this practice chanting "Om shanti shanti shanti."
I am so lucky that I know about Yoga with Adriene. I don't know what I would have done without this practice. With all of the things I get involved in in my life I sometimes get stuck in the attitude of "this is too important, I don't have time for my yoga." And so I push myself too hard. But remembering the importance of truly caring for myself and my energy, has saved me today. To anyone else who has struggled, you are not alone. Om shanti shanti shanti. We'll make it through.
you're strong man keep going!
In this midst of chaotic and stressful holiday season, this practice is perfect 🥰 thank you Adriene, namaste everyone 🙏
Namaste !
Anxiety is at an all time high(in part because of pandemic panic) and this is just amazing. Thank you so much Adriene.
I think as much hardwork we've put into doing this yoga, our heart and health appreciates it more than we think... To whoever reading this, I am so proud of you for what you are today and for what you will improve into tomorrow 🫂
Thanks!
Blessed Beloved Beauties! Breathe Day - 18 is right on time. Often, anxiousness kicks in, however, I combat it with yoga and meditation.🧘🏾♀️ I practiced a nervous system meditation followed by this session. Ah, coupled together it's, so yummy. It's time for a 🏃🏿♀️ run before a Cafe Slay event my husband and I are hosting at our home. Best wishes everyone! Namaste and Ase! 🦋❤❤🦋
🙏🏼💜 How are you? I have been in Asia too long. What is a Cafe Slay event?
@@williamb7275 I am doing fantastic! Are you feeling better? A Café Slay means an exceptional event with a Café theme. We entertained friends with vegan blueberry scones, bananas, celestial caffeine free fruit teas, and caffeine free herbal bareorganics coffee.😋 Thanks for asking!
I have been extremely stressed out. I didn’t realize how stressed out I was until I started to feel almost ill from it. As soon as I went into warrior 2 I let go of all my stress and cried. I cried for the remainder of the video but I feel so much better and I think I yoga is now my new favorite thing to do. Thank you so so much. Your words helped more than you’ll ever know.
Your flow is so inspiring! 🧘♀
I'm learning and forgetting and learning again that movement und being in the body helps so much with anxiety. It always feels so counter intuitive to me, because my nervous system responds to anxiety with freezing and it's so hard to get out of this. Thank you for this sequence! It's a big win for me that I'm even here
Day 25 cultivate! It wasn't so as easy as I had thought to be but I loved it since each pose sort of helped me stay present without being distracted, even no nonsense thoughts! I think difficulty of some moves help us stay connected! Thank you Adriene for your useful instructions!😍❤
