Well... I made out with over a thousand people tonight! Way to keep the good vibes flowing! I feel a little thirsty, a little sweaty, a little chill, and whole lot ready for a hot shower and a good nights sleep. Namas-night, everyone. 🍃🌺🍃
Ouch my back didn't enjoy the low boats so I just stayed in boat pose..again! Great practice to challenge myself with after the end of Home :-) Thanks Adriene xx
February 2024 in the books. Thank you Adriene and crew for a great month of yoga. Thank you to all my fellow 2024 Yogis who joined me on this adventure. We did it!!!!!
Thank you Adriene❤❤..I feel so relaxed and calm. Thank you yogi lovelies and everyone here for Last day Feb. for Admire... Day 29:02:24✅ I've really enjoyed today's practice, it's been soothing and satisfying. My body is grateful & 💞🧘🏾♀️ kiss to you and this amazing ywa community. I hope others enjoy this practice as much as I did. let's step into the month of March.... 💗🎉let's begin Exhale😌.See you all tomorrow.It's been an exciting journey. Love & light to you all.Namaste💜☮️🙏🏾
👋🏾😊Hey! Hello William, how are you as well? Thanks for checking in💞🤗I am fine, still recovering from knee surgery so I have been on ywa Adriene's meditation practices instead ..I'll start leaving comments from day 10.... really missed the August and Sept sessions. Will def. get back to them from October. Thank you and a lovely day to you wonderful friend💜🤗🙏🏽
I don't know about anyone else, but I found that doing the boat pose in this practice made it much easier to transition into the low and side variations than in previous practices! I'm highly grateful for that; I'm sure with time, it'll become increasingly fulfilling to be able to reach poses we once thought were more challenging. Hopefully, I'll see the rest of the community again in the future, especially Exhale 2024; sending all the best, love and light to you all! Take care 💕😊
Day 29 Admire Feb 2024 I REALLY didn’t want to do yoga today. I have cramps am bloated and sleepy. I did it anyway and man oh man Adriene you did it again. I’m feel awake now and less bloated. Thank you Adriene I can’t wait to see what March has in store.
You weren't alone, was feeling the same way all day. Put off today's final practice of Admire 2024 because of it. But so glad I completed before the day was through.
Final day of Admire Feb 2024. Feeling rather emotional today. Two months of daily yoga practice in the books. On to month 3. That core work was rough today but I embraced the thought that every day is different and this is me today. Take care all!❤
The final practice of Admire Feb 2024 and WE MADE IT🎉🎉🎉 These kisses were intense sometimes but I am feeling blessed and loved🙏 Thank you Adtiene and Benji for one more incredible month of yoga❤ Thank you everyone for practicing with me❤ Can't wait for the March calendar🤩
I did it!! I did yoga every day in February! All the videos on the calendar for this month. I’m feeling happy and surprised and proud. I started yoga with the January journey, I kinda expected to finish that because I felt that strange determined motivation that I sometimes (rarely though) get. However, I’ve never done yoga for more than 31 days in my life. And somehow this time it’s all different. I loved January, to continue felt logical and effortless, and now I’m here. And I feel so calm and strong and flexibel and, well, generally good. Thank you, Adriene!!
I got emotional doing this practice, went through the whole 40 min while crying. I tried to embrace it and allow it. For all the people out there who have to be strong and face life alone without anyone to count on for security, you are not alone! you are awesome! and you are safe in the universe! I love you even if you fall. you are only human.
Namaste! Hope all is well with you through the holiday season, and thanks for the positive energy. 💜

A few month later but I’m sending you lots of love, energy and sunshine ☀️ Hope you feel better now! And I totally agree with the crying. Allowing it can be so freeing!
Hesitating on doing the session, not sure if I can go through, but reading your message: alone without anyone to count on for security, it can be so tiring, but your message gave me access back to my strength, and access to the idea that I can rely, I'm not alone. Thank you to you.
I hope you're doing so well❤ your comment made me cry, especially the 'I love you even if you fall' part. Adriene mentioned this practice would be good if you need a kiss goodbye, and for that reason I was gonna pick another one because I was too scared to deal with my emotions. You're inspiring, stay blessed💗
Whenever I am unwell and feel the need for some self-care and kindness, I come to this channel. You are so genuine and kind, funny and human, these sessions feel relaxed and soothing. Thank you for sharing your craft so generously with us and I hope life is treating you with the same kindness you do us.
This practice holds a special place in my heart as it was the one that started my journey 227 days ago ♥ Looking back at my previous comments I can see just how much things have changed along the way. This one with all it's planks and core work doesn't intimidate me any more. It is one of my favourites in fact 💝 My planks are super strong, no more belly flops and I even managed every single boat this time! I have had no choice but to modify things not only in my daily practice but in my daily life as my joints become increasingly more painful but this journey has helped me stay physically and emotionally strong throughout and much more accepting of the changes that are taking place. Commiting to that finish this for the first time 8ish months ago was one of my best decisions and I'm so thankful for Adriene and this wonderful community ❤ Namaste everyone 💞
Love this reflection. I revisited this one today for the first time in a while and was not expecting such a fierce and fiery work out. It was delicious though. And I can see how far I’ve come in the last few years too. Onward, my friend 🌀💜🌀
@trishakingsbury2224 hi! I must admit I've been missing my daily check in with the people I connected with on here 💕 How are you doing? I got the amazing news a few months ago that I had a complete response to treatment and am in full remission!! Unfortunately, I'm still struggling to recover from the treatment itself which ended a year ago on the 18th November. I haven't managed to do even get y at out for such a long time 💔 I'm hoping to at least start a little bit and join in with the December calendar. I have a new puppy and he's such a clever little thing I'm pretty sure he will be joining me so hope that will give me the oomph I need to keep going as he thrives on routine. Big love to you and hopefully see you on the mat in a few days xx
Amazing news about being in remission! I’m sending you loving healing vibes and hoping for a speedy recovery from here on out from the treatment. Glad you have a new puppy love too. It’s great to hear these updates and I am sure you’ll find new and juicy grooves in your yoga practice as you rebuild. I dropped off following the daily video suggestions in September but choose videos from the calendar here and there throughout each month. I started going to in person classes twice a week and have found a whole new spark in my practice. It has helped me weather a brutal mental health episode this fall and I am deeply grateful for the ritual of practice that I built through YWA over the last three years. It feels so poignant to have found each other again today for a check in. I love this community and am glad to still have connections here. Keep going, my love. 🌈
@trishakingsbury2224 thankyou 💕 I hope you are on the up now with your mental health. Mine has taken a bit of a battering too this last year which I'm being told is completely normal after cancer. I have a wonderful psychologist who is checking in by phone every few weeks as unfortunately the waiting list for in person therapy is huge. They identified during treatment that I need serious trauma therapy but in the meantime she's working with me by phone and post which is better than nothing. I lost my little old dog in the summer and he left such a huge hole in both my heart and the house so the new little pup is so therapeutic even though he is in the hard work stage. He's only 11 weeks old so nothing that won't pass with time. He's a maltese/poodle cross so absolutely beautiful and just like a little ball of cotton wool 😍 We gave him the name Sugar after lots of consideration as he looks as sweet as sugar but is as relentless as Alan Sugar and as tenacious and scrappy as Sugar Ray Leonard 😂 My grandaughter has been staying at the weekend so I can get a full night's sleep which is also lovely to get to spend some extended time with her. Even though I see her and my daughter several times a week it's nice to just be able to snuggle up on the sofa and chill with her. Which is where I'm about to go plonk myself. I think I may well do the same as you and dip in and out of the calendar, and choose other practice's that I feel more able to do. I will definitely pop in and check comments on the calendar ones though and keep in touch. Sending loving, healing energy right back at you and hope you continue to improve and enjoy your in person classes. That's not an option for me sadly as I live in a small village out in the sticks and I'm still not able to drive due to various medications so I'm even more grateful to our beautiful Adriene for the easy access to so many different practice's. Take care and ill talk to you again soon hopefully 💓
Blossom Day 12: Got on the mat early morning, intimidated by the length and intensity of this practice. It was challenging at places and I struggled to keep up, but what can one do? Some days are like this. You can't control everything and can just do what you can. I am still proud of myself for doing this practice and meeting my edge today. If you too are scared of the length of this, it's all good. Do what you can, even if it is for 5 min. Cheering for you! :)
2 роки тому+4
Proud of you! And thanks for your encouraging words. I modified a lot today because I’m on my period but I’m glad I came to the mat! :)
I love this sentiment. I’m also a liiiiittle daunted by the length, but again, it’s all about trusting the process and doing what you can in the moment. Thanks for the encouraging words, fellow blossom!

@@emmarobinson527 I did the same! And I replaced a few poses with twists and stretches :)
And just like that, February is over. Having a daily practice makes me feel like the time went somewhere - and it did - we invested it into ourselves. What a beautiful thing, indeed. 🥰
Happy Leap Day to those of you practicing on the final practice of Admire 2024! 🤗 Normally, even if I'm feeling low energy, I take advantage of the higher energy moves anyway (like keeping the knee raised in high lunges), but today I am feeling a bit sick. It was a lovely opportunity to take it slow in a loving way ❤
My husband, not even knowing today’s theme, just came to find me in savasana as I was finishing up and bent down to give me a real kiss! 😂 💗 What a way to finish off today’s practice! That said, I just finished Home a couple days ago, and this practice made me realize how much stronger my body is since I started practicing daily! I feel good today!
Blossom day 12: this practice felt so LOVING! Like, this yoga practice loved me and took me in its comfortable hug to guide me to stillness and gratitude and peace of mind. Thanks once again Adriene! And to all fellow people who are following the blossom calendar, please do this practice despite its length, you will not regret it! Namaste

Agreed! I should have read your comment before practicing for some extra encouragement. :D
To everyone on July 2021's PROCESS journey: whatever it is that you're processing right now, know that you are not alone. Many kisses to you all whenever you're reading this😘
What a way to continue the journey since coming ‘home’ over the last 30 days. I’m feeling connected again, after loving this mornings practice. I love the way Adriene says ‘hop into something comfy’ as I’m standing there in my pyjamas. Anyone else yoga on getting up and remain in pj’s? Love to all 🙏🌎😘
Every time Adriene said 'kiss the sky', I've sent a little kiss up towards my ceiling - very silly thing to do, but it made me smile. Finishing 30 days yoga journey I was amazed how my body became strong enough to finish today's 40 minutes practice 💪. I am so grateful.
Hard stuff this week and more to come. I’m so glad I have these practices to strengthen me on and off the mat. This was not as hard as it once would have been. 😅
I'm here a day earlier than it says in the Bridge calendar because I decided to swap Friday's and Saturday's practises. I have other sport hobbies, which means that I sometimes have to modify my yoga practises but I never skip the daily check-in! Wishing peace to anyone reading this❤ Also, the theme song of this practise is definitely Purple Haze by Jimi Hendrix🤘🏼

Hi BLOSSOM internet yoga friends!🧘♂️🌸 The sun is out today and I love it! I can already feel it fuel me with positive and loving energy. I was quite intimidated by the length of this video because I honestly can’t wait to get outside in the sun. 🌞😂 In addition to that I’m still on my period and had to replace some core poses with stretches. The happy baby in the end was perfect though! I can only recommend doing that when you’re cramping. Sending lots of sunny vibes to all of you! I appreciate your comments so much! And thank you Adriene for providing us with this lovely playlist. It truly is an anchor in the morning. See u all tomorrow! 👋🏼
Hiya, Cara! You know, when I read your motivational comments, it immediately brings a smile to my face! I'm so happy that the sun has charged you with positive and loving energy ⚡ and I'm proud of you for showing up, despite the length of this healing video! Well done, always listen to your body and be gentle with yourself! Owh, it always feels amazing doing 'happy baby' pose, haha 😂 thanks for the recommendation, noted! Sending lots of sunny vibes to you now too! I appreciate your comments too, Cara! Thanks for writing, it really made me happy! :)
So we're really all on our periods😂 I saw another 2 comments talking about it. Anyway, this practice was amazing for me too, it felt really refreshing. Sending lots of love!❤️

Thankyou Adrienne 😊 I have moved to the city, had been feeling a little sad and worried. But this practice invited me to let it go. I could only practice the first 15 min but I feel I will be alright. Lots of love ❤❤
Hi everyone doing Blossom 2022! Here a few days early because this longer practice fits my schedule better today. This one was tough for me but those final moments of surrender were so, so sweet. You've got this!
2 роки тому+3
Thanks for your encouragement! Adjusting the schedule is such a good thing. Find what feels good, right? :)
I really really loved this practice. Since we're all doing the social isolation thing as best as possible I'm trying to bring longer yoga flows into my routine and this one was a great one to start with. Thank you. Have a good everybody, stay healthy and indoors :)
Anyone here doing this for PROCESS? This practice felt so good. I'd not done yoga in a couple weeks and this was the perfect practice to let me ease into the whole thing. ❤
Salute day 7; after an emotionally exhausting day this practice was just challenging enough so that I worked hard but was reminded to listen to my body and modify as needed. Thank you Adriene ❤️
Woke up carrying some of the stress from the week with me, but feeling much lighter after that ❤️ hope all the other folk doing Bridge enjoy & have a great weekend!
My favourite bit of these yoga practices is when you ask us to look down in to a pond, in to water, and see our own reflection. It's the most beautiful image. Thank you Adriene. Namaste. X
Me too❤️ when I was around 16 I used to take my dog on a “walk” every day to a tree park near my house that has the most magical little stream. My dog ended up getting fat because I would take her to the stream and just sit there for a couple hours, just taking it all in. All the bird songs and how the sunlight hit the plants, the sound the water made, and of course my daily joint. So I’m always taken precisely to those beautiful moments of my life
Today marks 6 months since I retired, and 6 months of almost daily yoga with Adriene. Before retirement, I did 3 or practices a week. During the first 4 months I also worked at losing 30 pounds. I am successfully keeping the weight off, and my knees don't complain on stairs any more. I have become a lot stronger. I can even see a tiny bicep bulge (if I flex in just the right way). I have begun trying to hop to the top of the mat when transitioning from down dog to forward fold. And this week, I have begun to add back some low impact cardio. I truly believe that if I hadn't found Adriene 7 or so years ago, I would be in terrible physical condition, but thankfully, I feel that I am in better shape than many in my age group. Thanks Adriene!
This is great to hear. Her practices are so easy to keep a routine with. I have had a couple periods when I lost track of regular practice with her but overall, I wish I had found this channel before May 2019 when I started following her.
Great practice. I kept smiling throughout the session because I'm flowing so easily. Thanks to Adriene, Benji, and the rest of my yoga community. Blessings, and have a blessed, productive day 🙏 .Namaste ❤❤❤
Hello to all! Here we go with day 2 on our February calendar. Today I woke up, felt I didn’t want to practice for 40 minutes (of course “there was a reason”, I was clearly late 😆😉), thought of choosing a shorter video instead, then got on the mat... And my body told me it wanted this one. And I did it, and it was amazing. For the first time in 4 months, I truly felt it was not an act of conscious discipline but rather a true gift to myself, kindness in and out, no pressure, like a gentle kiss. It made me get out of my head and feel alive, today. My dearest fellow yogis, I send you all the love from the Austrian Alps straight into your hearts. May you have a beautiful Sunday, enjoy this practice as a gift that it is, and know you are not alone in this. See you tomorrow on the mat 🥰
I did not want to do a 40min session at first as well, but I also sat down and just started. The slow build of the session along with the intensity at the end kept me engaged and out of my own head. Glad to have worked out with ya!
@@michaelknight7333 that's how it often is! Adriene always creates our practice in a way that gently builds up, gaining momentum only when body and mind are prepared, so we are not thrown into anything abruptly :)
Another amazing month of yoga down. I still struggle at times but I feel so much stronger, and this is the longest continuous timeframe I've had of doing Yoga with Adriene. Gonna keep going every single day! Namaste! 🧘🏻♂️
Hey everyone! I just wanted to thank Adrienne and every “find what feels good” yogi. I started my yoga practice last summer and Adrienne’s was the first video I came across on UA-cam. I made a commitment to myself, not just to lose weight but to find some worth in myself again. Since that day I haven’t stopped! I’ve lost 50 pounds! But I’ve gained so much good, my sleep is more restorative, my posture is straighter, I can keep up with my kids! I have decreased my symptoms of anxiety and depression. So thank you Adrienne, I feel like I know you through our little practices every day haha. I’ve never felt judged or like I have to be a perfect yogi to be part of this community and it feels really good! My weight is starting to plateau a bit so keep those hour long challenging videos coming! I’m ready for them!
How long did it take for you to start losing the weight? I did the 30 days and have been doing yoga almost every day for about 45 days. And I've GAINED like 7 pounds. Idk why but I'm hoping to start losing soon
Kiss started off so gentle and soothing that I was not expecting some intense strength building, even though I know I need it. I can definitely see why this was chosen as the first video for July 2021 Process.
This exercise; I don't know how many times I've done it over the past couple of years, and it's just SO great and beautiful every time ❤️. Every time there seems to be new bodily revelations and mental relaxation and focus. Looooooove it 🙏🧘🏻♂️😘
Great class and a bit harder to build solid strength. I will definitely do this class again and thank you for taking us to the last day of February. My friend and I did this wonderful "kiss" class just before she left Maui to fly home. I will miss her and this special class was wonderful way to express our friendship.
Hi there fellow Bridges. That was tough but I feel like all my body received some attention. Oh goodness, those boat poses!!!!Looking forward to seeing our calendar for March
Whew, after yesterday's deep core, those low boats nearly killed me, but I'm super proud of myself for sticking with it. Feeling amazing and ready to take on the day!
Today was super rough for me, I started a new medication on thursday and the side effects come and go. I’ve done this practice before without too much trouble, but now i find myself struggling a lot. Trying however to be kind to myself (even if it’s hard sometimes), and not be mean to myself and my body when it has a perfectly valid reason for not being perfect today. I love this community though. I’ll take a quick breather, see if I can continue. Otherwise, I’ll spent the rest of the evening just being kind to myself
As much as I love the 30 days challenges, I'm kinda past the beginners stuff. This session was perfect!! So happy we have you Adriene. Your loving encouragement is very much appreciated!!
Hello Blossom yogis from Day 12🌸 I love this one! It is challenging but also grounding. And I feel a lot more strong since the beginning of the Move journey. Thank you so much Adriene for providing us these perfect yoga flows and your companionship. It's such a pleasure to experience them. I am so grateful for you. Have a lovely weekend everyone! Namaste🙏💌
Coming to the mat today with a heart full of love and so much joy! No matter how many times i do this practice i never ever get tired of it!!! I love itttt. Leaves me feeling so so strong light and free~
I knew that this 40 minute practice would be rather challenging for this senior yogi, but hey, I just modified as I went. I’m still searching for this playlist but I found our first day for Process, Yoga Kiss. As when I did this 4 months ago, I welcomed that cool down. It was soooo good 😊 see you tomorrow on the mat 🧘🏼♀️🧘🏻♀️🙏💕
Happy New Month Gill! I always love to hear how you modify to find what feels good. You have such an amazing memory to know what we did four months ago! I am lucky if I remember what I did four minutes ago! I got a massage for my sciatic yesterday and I’m really sore and in pain today so I’m going to just listen to this one today and try to relax my body and not resist the pain. I’m onto a new book called, “You are Not Your Pain” and it’s helped me get some much needed hope that I can live with this discomfort (in this moment at least.) I hope the sun is shining. We have clouds today and cool breeze! I’m loving it ☁️ ♥️
Thanks for news Laura. So sorry for your pain🥺😢 I always think of you when I have a challenging practice and adjust to keep it fun. I am so pleased you’re chilling with your new book and hope it helps 🤞. 😂 my memory is not good Laura. I can read my comment below from last time I did this practice. It’s good to compare my fitness. Not so good lately but improving slowly !! Sending you good vibes for July, on or off the mat 🙏🏻🧘🏼♀️🌷🌿💕
@@gillsmith6740 even better than having a good memory is being clever enough to leave yourself breadcrumbs of information to refer to! I would never think to look back at my previous complaints I mean comments!!! 😂 it helped to see your comment this morning so I knew healthy body yoga would be ok. I don’t have any pain this morning 🤷🏻♀️ but I’m not going to push anything. Nighttime is worse for some reason. Vinyasa flows are not for me either. I feel so bad for Adriene’s mom and Adriene. I just read the email 😞. When my mom was annoying the 🤬 out of me I thought of Adriene’s mom and checked myself.
I was hesitant to start this practice today e be n though I’ve proven to myself I can do longer practices but just when I finally stepped on the mat the sun came out and I was able to do my practice in the brightest crispiest sunshine! Much love!
1st day of process.. turning to the mat every single day since 1st of january and it changed my life. Adriene changed my life. This one was amazing. Felt so good
Also here since beginning of Breath. Didn't think I'd even get through that and yet I keep coming back every day. Has changed my self belief that I can stay on course and keep turning up for something so worthwhile. So let's keep going!
Everyday this month this February calendar provided exactly what I needed...how does adriene sync into all that? ❤ This yoga community is absolutely amazing! Send love and light to all. 🧘♀️😍
I just had to say Adriene, congratulations on reaching 10 million subscribers. 10 million people being inspired to build yoga as a daily practice! It's incredible. What a gift you have given us. Sending you and your dear mum lots of love during this tender and difficult time. Namaste 🙏
This is my 4th day of doing yoga with Adriene and listen when I tell you this, I've never felt so good for past few years like this after an exercise! I've been trying to increase exercising by going to gym, trying to do different variations of practice they all felt exhausting... Now I feel like I found my way of exercise and also relax my mind and my thoughts! I'm so glad I found this community and hopefully I will stick with it!!
I did not think I'd be able to make time today for a 40 minute practice, but I knew I wanted to start July out on a positive note. After a long day at work I was tempted to stay in bed, but adriene was in my head saying otherwise. Half the battle is showing up and I did that today. Yoga kiss was perfect. It got me sweating and shaking which is always a good sign. I may not be able to get to every practice this month, but starting day 1 of 31 sets the tone.
My mind has been racing all night long and I thought I would not be able to focus, but I got into and finally cleared my head for a bit. I might have to do several today just to keep that peace of mind!! Thank you for another wonderful practice!
Having a good day YWA friends? Breath and Bridge family? How does today's practice find you? I have to admit there was quite a bit of irritation today. Thoughts flying. Too much talking. Let's move along. What, doing that again?! And having a headache did not help. I have done this before and loved it so it is no reflection on Adriene. Definitely not. Perhaps it was similar to the feelings that come up sometimes when the weekend ends and the work week starts, only here we had done so many short practices leading up to this longer one. I really should add in some other videos like some of you do to even out the practice times. All that aside, I know you will enjoy this one. I did despite the difficulty. Can say that after lying on my mat for some minutes at the end. 🙏 Bridge day 27. Day 146 in a row.
I so appreciate your honesty, William - and your really relatable description of your thoughts and state of being. How great that you have done this practice before so that you could recognize the difference in those things for you...and how, again, true to yourself to acknowledge them. Last, how brave and true to then do your best to settle in and enjoy as you were able. Luckily for me, I was in a good place for this longer, more in depth practice - and I was really enjoying the metaphor of each subtle movement being a kiss and relishing those sensations - so the pace and verbal prompts were working! Take care, and hope your weekend is nourishing and restful.
Today was a struggle for me as well, but a needed one. Low boats and I do not yet get along, so today was an exercise in failure and the conversation I have around that. I'm in a season of life where I have to take a lot of risks and embrace failure as feedback and opportunities for growth. My initial reaction to the inability to do low boats is frustration, then shame, and in past versions of myself I would let this be the reason I stopped showing up. But if failure is only feedback then this is just something I need to build up to, and now have a target to shoot for. I am so grateful to this family, this practice and to you William for voicing your own challenges so that others feel free to express themselves in support and kinship with you.
@@jasonsandmann6768 Oddly, low boats went well for me despite not feeling well. Usually, they do not. Just goes to show we never really know what will meet us physically on the mat. The mental aspect, well, yes, that is another matter.
@@jasonsandmann6768 your perspective here is inspiring me as William's did! Such self awareness, struggle and ultimately compassion, determination and commitment are truly where we can live out our best, healthiest and happiest selves....but oh, so hard sometimes to move through! Thank you BOTH.
Admire Feb 29 ✅ I was so into it I was surprised time went by so fast. Boat was easier than before. I love when I see improvement. Thank you so much! ❤
Wow!! A 40 minute class post the 30 day yoga journey? I am totally down to breaking a little sweat. Looking forward to what this month has to offer as I just happened to write the first two pages of the second chapter of my 2020. Thanks for this loving, magical practice, Adriene. Let's keep the energy flowing everyone. We've got this. Namaste.
Amazing morning with the amazing HONOR calendar, Adriene, you're a miracle on this earth 🥰 lots of kisses for encouraging us ever day to be kinder and makin us stronger! ✨
Nice reminder to slow down for the weekend when my mind was buzzing with everything I needed to do. Forget how much I enjoy the boat sequence at the end. Hope everyone enjoys their practice & has a lovely weekend. 🌸 Blossom day 12 🌸
I felt some resistance to this sequence again. I overcame it by doing it at my own pace, mostly sped up but with a couple breaks as well. I actually was surprised how easy low boat felt...the first time. A little rough water on the second round. Welcome to July everyone. Process day 1. 270 days in a row.
I also felt some resistance, but kept going and managed to do what I could. We made it to July! Sending love and strength to everyone. We're in it together.
I was going through comments and just read through your older comment thread, then I found this! I also have struggles with this practice and usually take a break in the middle to re-motivate myself or just to calm down my brain when it gets mad that I can't do a pose💞
I love you, Adriene! Your lessons have completely changed my life. When I first began my practice with you, I was really struggling. My relationship was struggling, my finances, my personal growth, my self-care routine. I started with your short 10 minute videos and it was enough to help me get a break from the constant motion of my daily life. As I began to deepen my practice, I started to really love myself and I learned how to extend that love to my partner and then it sort of rippled into every other aspect of my life. Today, (wow! It's only been maybe a year and a half!) I moved to the mountains with my boyfriend, which was our dream together. I absolutely love my job. I'm a CNA and I've learned to sincerely love all of my residents as if they were actually my own family members even though I only work temporarily at facilities and I'm used to them forgetting me. I still treasure each and every special moment that I have with them and some of them, I still wonder what they're up to. I have this amazing apartment that has this gorgeous view of the mountains. I have learned to cook all of this fantastic food. I've started my own home care business (still early in that, but I know it's going to be great). I am learning to play the piano. I've become an avid reader. Right now, I'm reading the Invisible Life of Addie Larue. My boyfriend and I are learning to speak French together. I have become a pretty decent painter. I really love my life. I am so thankful for everything that you have taught me, Adriene. I don't think that my life would be the way that it is today if it weren't for you teaching me how to love myself one yoga video at a time. Thank you!!
Also, all of this taught me to be more compassionate toward my partner. He was struggling with his mental health and this helped me to create a peaceful environment and learn to respond to him in a way that was more loving and attentive. I encouraged him to seek help and I did everything I could to let him know that I wasn't judging him and that I really just loved him and wanted him to be happy. Eventually, we discovered that he was suffering from PTSD from being in the infantry. The VA is helping him with it now. He struggled for such a long time before he knew what it was and now, he's a lot happier too. He is so much more optimistic. He takes much better care of himself. He laughs so much more. I can hear him laughing in the next room right now, playing his xbox game with his friends. He is so much more ambitious than he used to be. I can tell that he really believes in himself now. He has started aggressively pursuing his goals and he has been such an amazing partner to me. I feel so lucky to have him. Thanks again, Adriene.
... I remember the days whan it was difficult to feel 'like I love myself'... But anchored in a trust it helped me to transform that into a loving relationship here, inside, and to feel that I am at home... Lovely day to everyone 🧡 Namaste 🙏
@@Noukz37 Da 🧡, no mislim da je važno i to da znamo - to da volimo sebe i druge je jedan neraskidivi proces, koji se uzajamno gradi, taj preobražaj doživljavam i kroz lično iskustvo, i nije jednostavan, premda može biti lak. Neko se ne može osetiti voljeno, ako nije bio voljen. Ne postoji individua istrgnuta iz zajednice, samoformirana, u bilo čemu, pa ni u ljubavi. Čini mi se da se samoljubav previše naglašava, nekad i pogrešno, izolovano. Sve je to jedan kružni uzajamni proces, između nas i našeg okruženja. 🧡
@@jelenanedeljkovic605 Slažem se, ljubav je tako jednostavna a tako naizgled komplikovana. 🙂 Bitno je samo da ne komplikujemo kada nema potrebe, kako svoja osjećanja tako i sa tuđim.
You rock, Adriene. Your videos are just so inspiring in the middle of this global crisis. You bring peace to this community and we really appreciate it. Thank you Adriene. Namaste🙏🏻 Pray for everyone’s safety and health.
Hello dear friends! Today we explore unconditional love - starting with ourselves. How are you feeling after this sweet Yoga Kiss? x
i feel sweaty and hungry. and hopeful to get all the stupid paperwork i have to do done today. wish me luck, guys..
Well... I made out with over a thousand people tonight! Way to keep the good vibes flowing! I feel a little thirsty, a little sweaty, a little chill, and whole lot ready for a hot shower and a good nights sleep. Namas-night, everyone. 🍃🌺🍃
I’m on fire and ready to go outside and enjoy the 50* weather in Iowa.
Ouch my back didn't enjoy the low boats so I just stayed in boat pose..again! Great practice to challenge myself with after the end of Home :-) Thanks Adriene xx
This was brilliant..think I am going to ache tomorrow 😊
February 2024 in the books. Thank you Adriene and crew for a great month of yoga. Thank you to all my fellow 2024 Yogis who joined me on this adventure. We did it!!!!!
Thank you Adriene❤❤..I feel so relaxed and calm. Thank you yogi lovelies and everyone here for Last day Feb. for Admire... Day 29:02:24✅ I've really enjoyed today's practice, it's been soothing and satisfying. My body is grateful & 💞🧘🏾♀️ kiss to you and this amazing ywa community. I hope others enjoy this practice as much as I did. let's step into the month of March.... 💗🎉let's begin Exhale😌.See you all tomorrow.It's been an exciting journey. Love & light to you all.Namaste💜☮️🙏🏾
This one is back on the calendar. I scrolled down and found your comment from six months or so ago. Hope all is well.
👋🏾😊Hey! Hello William, how are you as well? Thanks for checking in💞🤗I am fine, still recovering from knee surgery so I have been on ywa Adriene's meditation practices instead ..I'll start leaving comments from day 10.... really missed the August and Sept sessions. Will def. get back to them from October. Thank you and a lovely day to you wonderful friend💜🤗🙏🏽
@@simplyyyfab_u_lous_3266 My sister had knee surgery as well not so long ago. She is finally moving around much better.
I don't know about anyone else, but I found that doing the boat pose in this practice made it much easier to transition into the low and side variations than in previous practices! I'm highly grateful for that; I'm sure with time, it'll become increasingly fulfilling to be able to reach poses we once thought were more challenging. Hopefully, I'll see the rest of the community again in the future, especially Exhale 2024; sending all the best, love and light to you all! Take care 💕😊
Day 29 Admire Feb 2024 I REALLY didn’t want to do yoga today. I have cramps am bloated and sleepy. I did it anyway and man oh man Adriene you did it again. I’m feel awake now and less bloated. Thank you Adriene I can’t wait to see what March has in store.
You weren't alone, was feeling the same way all day. Put off today's final practice of Admire 2024 because of it. But so glad I completed before the day was through.
Final day of Admire Feb 2024. Feeling rather emotional today. Two months of daily yoga practice in the books. On to month 3. That core work was rough today but I embraced the thought that every day is different and this is me today. Take care all!❤
29.2.24 Excellent way to end the month. Thank you Adriene and all you lovelies in the YWA community. You have all changed my life 🧘♀️ ❤
Admire day 29🎉 what a way to end February, thank you, Adriene, for this practice. X💖🧘🏼♀️🙏
And to you too.❤️💜☮️🤗🙏🏾for your lovely company and daily comments, hope 2 c u 4 Exhale practice. Best wishes🌼💞🙏🏾

Thank you Adtiene and Benji for one more incredible month of yoga❤
Thank you everyone for practicing with me❤
Can't wait for the March calendar🤩
Thanks Adriene , for another great month of practices and for keeping our cups filled ! 😁✌🙏
I did it!! I did yoga every day in February! All the videos on the calendar for this month. I’m feeling happy and surprised and proud. I started yoga with the January journey, I kinda expected to finish that because I felt that strange determined motivation that I sometimes (rarely though) get. However, I’ve never done yoga for more than 31 days in my life. And somehow this time it’s all different. I loved January, to continue felt logical and effortless, and now I’m here. And I feel so calm and strong and flexibel and, well, generally good. Thank you, Adriene!!
I got emotional doing this practice, went through the whole 40 min while crying. I tried to embrace it and allow it. For all the people out there who have to be strong and face life alone without anyone to count on for security, you are not alone! you are awesome! and you are safe in the universe! I love you even if you fall. you are only human.
Namaste! Hope all is well with you through the holiday season, and thanks for the positive energy. 💜
A few month later but I’m sending you lots of love, energy and sunshine ☀️ Hope you feel better now! And I totally agree with the crying. Allowing it can be so freeing!
Hesitating on doing the session, not sure if I can go through, but reading your message: alone without anyone to count on for security, it can be so tiring, but your message gave me access back to my strength, and access to the idea that I can rely, I'm not alone. Thank you to you.
I hope you're doing so well❤ your comment made me cry, especially the 'I love you even if you fall' part. Adriene mentioned this practice would be good if you need a kiss goodbye, and for that reason I was gonna pick another one because I was too scared to deal with my emotions. You're inspiring, stay blessed💗
Whenever I am unwell and feel the need for some self-care and kindness, I come to this channel. You are so genuine and kind, funny and human, these sessions feel relaxed and soothing. Thank you for sharing your craft so generously with us and I hope life is treating you with the same kindness you do us.
My thoughts exactly! 🙏❤
Would this be a daily need? : )
I have this planned for tomorrow morning! We'll dine to those that managed today!
Yesss!!!!!
Well said ❤ sending you love and peace on your way today too. Namaste.
SALUTE 🌅 | September 7, 2024 | This practice is always a treat! Mindful strengthening and connecting! I always feel so calm after we're done.
i'm here for the july schedule! will check in at the comment sections for each video to confirm haha. fighting!
Same, i always check the comments first before starting. Just in case 😂😂😂
I committed to showing up daily this month!🙏
I’m here for this schedule as well!
Present 😌☺️🙋🏽♀️ flowing here with you all .
Same 🥰
Such a great month of practice! I’m so excited to be completing it while on a first time visit to Austin for a conference!
Hope you have time to explore the city a little. Many cool places to check out and places to eat.
This practice holds a special place in my heart as it was the one that started my journey 227 days ago ♥ Looking back at my previous comments I can see just how much things have changed along the way. This one with all it's planks and core work doesn't intimidate me any more. It is one of my favourites in fact 💝 My planks are super strong, no more belly flops and I even managed every single boat this time! I have had no choice but to modify things not only in my daily practice but in my daily life as my joints become increasingly more painful but this journey has helped me stay physically and emotionally strong throughout and much more accepting of the changes that are taking place. Commiting to that finish this for the first time 8ish months ago was one of my best decisions and I'm so thankful for Adriene and this wonderful community ❤ Namaste everyone 💞
Love this reflection. I revisited this one today for the first time in a while and was not expecting such a fierce and fiery work out. It was delicious though. And I can see how far I’ve come in the last few years too. Onward, my friend 🌀💜🌀
@trishakingsbury2224 hi! I must admit I've been missing my daily check in with the people I connected with on here 💕 How are you doing? I got the amazing news a few months ago that I had a complete response to treatment and am in full remission!! Unfortunately, I'm still struggling to recover from the treatment itself which ended a year ago on the 18th November. I haven't managed to do even get y at out for such a long time 💔 I'm hoping to at least start a little bit and join in with the December calendar. I have a new puppy and he's such a clever little thing I'm pretty sure he will be joining me so hope that will give me the oomph I need to keep going as he thrives on routine. Big love to you and hopefully see you on the mat in a few days xx
Amazing news about being in remission! I’m sending you loving healing vibes and hoping for a speedy recovery from here on out from the treatment. Glad you have a new puppy love too. It’s great to hear these updates and I am sure you’ll find new and juicy grooves in your yoga practice as you rebuild. I dropped off following the daily video suggestions in September but choose videos from the calendar here and there throughout each month. I started going to in person classes twice a week and have found a whole new spark in my practice. It has helped me weather a brutal mental health episode this fall and I am deeply grateful for the ritual of practice that I built through YWA over the last three years. It feels so poignant to have found each other again today for a check in. I love this community and am glad to still have connections here. Keep going, my love. 🌈
@trishakingsbury2224 thankyou 💕
I hope you are on the up now with your mental health. Mine has taken a bit of a battering too this last year which I'm being told is completely normal after cancer. I have a wonderful psychologist who is checking in by phone every few weeks as unfortunately the waiting list for in person therapy is huge. They identified during treatment that I need serious trauma therapy but in the meantime she's working with me by phone and post which is better than nothing.
I lost my little old dog in the summer and he left such a huge hole in both my heart and the house so the new little pup is so therapeutic even though he is in the hard work stage. He's only 11 weeks old so nothing that won't pass with time. He's a maltese/poodle cross so absolutely beautiful and just like a little ball of cotton wool 😍 We gave him the name Sugar after lots of consideration as he looks as sweet as sugar but is as relentless as Alan Sugar and as tenacious and scrappy as Sugar Ray Leonard 😂 My grandaughter has been staying at the weekend so I can get a full night's sleep which is also lovely to get to spend some extended time with her. Even though I see her and my daughter several times a week it's nice to just be able to snuggle up on the sofa and chill with her. Which is where I'm about to go plonk myself.
I think I may well do the same as you and dip in and out of the calendar, and choose other practice's that I feel more able to do. I will definitely pop in and check comments on the calendar ones though and keep in touch.
Sending loving, healing energy right back at you and hope you continue to improve and enjoy your in person classes. That's not an option for me sadly as I live in a small village out in the sticks and I'm still not able to drive due to various medications so I'm even more grateful to our beautiful Adriene for the easy access to so many different practice's.
Take care and ill talk to you again soon hopefully 💓
“A kiss with tooonguuee” 😂 I went from zen to gut laughter in an instant. Thanks for being you Adriene
I love how she always makes me burst out laughing during a practice. Reminds me to not be so serious

Blossom Day 12:
Got on the mat early morning, intimidated by the length and intensity of this practice. It was challenging at places and I struggled to keep up, but what can one do? Some days are like this. You can't control everything and can just do what you can.
I am still proud of myself for doing this practice and meeting my edge today. If you too are scared of the length of this, it's all good. Do what you can, even if it is for 5 min. Cheering for you! :)
Proud of you! And thanks for your encouraging words. I modified a lot today because I’m on my period but I’m glad I came to the mat! :)
Thank you. I did 25 minutes and skipped to the end. I needed to be kind to myself.
I love this sentiment. I’m also a liiiiittle daunted by the length, but again, it’s all about trusting the process and doing what you can in the moment. Thanks for the encouraging words, fellow blossom!
@@emmarobinson527 I did the same! And I replaced a few poses with twists and stretches :)
'You can't control everything and can just do what you can'
Thank you for sharing this energy, let's keep blossoming 🌸💚
And just like that, February is over. Having a daily practice makes me feel like the time went somewhere - and it did - we invested it into ourselves. What a beautiful thing, indeed. 🥰
Happy Leap Day to those of you practicing on the final practice of Admire 2024! 🤗 Normally, even if I'm feeling low energy, I take advantage of the higher energy moves anyway (like keeping the knee raised in high lunges), but today I am feeling a bit sick. It was a lovely opportunity to take it slow in a loving way ❤
My husband, not even knowing today’s theme, just came to find me in savasana as I was finishing up and bent down to give me a real kiss! 😂 💗 What a way to finish off today’s practice!
That said, I just finished Home a couple days ago, and this practice made me realize how much stronger my body is since I started practicing daily! I feel good today!
Awww🥰
Oh how nice!
Awwwwww. Very nice!
sounds wonderful !
Awesome in all directions
Blossom day 12: this practice felt so LOVING! Like, this yoga practice loved me and took me in its comfortable hug to guide me to stillness and gratitude and peace of mind. Thanks once again Adriene! And to all fellow people who are following the blossom calendar, please do this practice despite its length, you will not regret it! Namaste
Agreed! I should have read your comment before practicing for some extra encouragement. :D
Thank you so much! I needed this!
To everyone on July 2021's PROCESS journey: whatever it is that you're processing right now, know that you are not alone. Many kisses to you all whenever you're reading this😘
This brightened my day. Thank you and namaste :)
Admire Day 29 🙏
February 29th, Bonus Day ... 2024 offers a little extra ❤ May you all have an abundance of blessings this year 🙏
I can’t believe I just did 40 minutes of yoga
You go girl! I am scared! I’ve done 40 minutes in the past, but not for a while. Here I go!
Only stared yoga this week- this is awesome, but omg feeling this one
same :)
Same! This was a great sesh.
Whaaaaat? Wait. Really? It was 40 minutes?😱😱😱😂😂😂🤣😉😌🙏
Awesome flow. Thank you, Adrienne.
What a way to continue the journey since coming ‘home’ over the last 30 days. I’m feeling connected again, after loving this mornings practice. I love the way Adriene says ‘hop into something comfy’ as I’m standing there in my pyjamas. Anyone else yoga on getting up and remain in pj’s? Love to all 🙏🌎😘
❤
I usually do my yoga in pj’s too ☺️
Yessss. The glory of home yoga! x
I love doing yoga at home in pajamas also
Just woke up and about to do this practice in pj’s😀
Great Practice, thank you Adriene. Such a positive human, I always come out of yoga smiling. Sometimes it feels like a prayer, wierd. Thanks anyway.🙃🙂
Every time Adriene said 'kiss the sky', I've sent a little kiss up towards my ceiling - very silly thing to do, but it made me smile. Finishing 30 days yoga journey I was amazed how my body became strong enough to finish today's 40 minutes practice 💪. I am so grateful.
same :)
Lots of smiles and kisses in this practice 💋💜💋💜⭕️💜💋💜💋
Me, too! I
Hard stuff this week and more to come. I’m so glad I have these practices to strengthen me on and off the mat.
This was not as hard as it once would have been. 😅
I love plank. I can't lower down easily, but I can totally hang in plank. Reminds me of P.E.'s flexed arm hang (yes!) vs chin-ups (nope!). 🌻
Been a lil under the weather so I haven't practiced in about a week, so glad I stepped up to the mat today 😊
I'm here a day earlier than it says in the Bridge calendar because I decided to swap Friday's and Saturday's practises. I have other sport hobbies, which means that I sometimes have to modify my yoga practises but I never skip the daily check-in! Wishing peace to anyone reading this❤ Also, the theme song of this practise is definitely Purple Haze by Jimi Hendrix🤘🏼
Hi BLOSSOM internet yoga friends!🧘♂️🌸 The sun is out today and I love it! I can already feel it fuel me with positive and loving energy. I was quite intimidated by the length of this video because I honestly can’t wait to get outside in the sun. 🌞😂 In addition to that I’m still on my period and had to replace some core poses with stretches. The happy baby in the end was perfect though! I can only recommend doing that when you’re cramping. Sending lots of sunny vibes to all of you! I appreciate your comments so much! And thank you Adriene for providing us with this lovely playlist. It truly is an anchor in the morning. See u all tomorrow! 👋🏼
Hiya, Cara! You know, when I read your motivational comments, it immediately brings a smile to my face! I'm so happy that the sun has charged you with positive and loving energy ⚡ and I'm proud of you for showing up, despite the length of this healing video! Well done, always listen to your body and be gentle with yourself! Owh, it always feels amazing doing 'happy baby' pose, haha 😂 thanks for the recommendation, noted! Sending lots of sunny vibes to you now too! I appreciate your comments too, Cara! Thanks for writing, it really made me happy! :)
So we're really all on our periods😂 I saw another 2 comments talking about it. Anyway, this practice was amazing for me too, it felt really refreshing. Sending lots of love!❤️

Thankyou Adrienne 😊
I have moved to the city, had been feeling a little sad and worried. But this practice invited me to let it go. I could only practice the first 15 min but I feel I will be alright.
Lots of love ❤❤
Amazing lesson! You’re my yoga foundations dear Adriene, thank you for always catching me when I fall
Hi everyone doing Blossom 2022! Here a few days early because this longer practice fits my schedule better today. This one was tough for me but those final moments of surrender were so, so sweet. You've got this!
Thanks for your encouragement! Adjusting the schedule is such a good thing. Find what feels good, right? :)
I really really loved this practice. Since we're all doing the social isolation thing as best as possible I'm trying to bring longer yoga flows into my routine and this one was a great one to start with. Thank you. Have a good everybody, stay healthy and indoors :)
I'm with you :)
I'm doing the same thing!
Me too!
Same here! I’m also doing the Home series but save them for the evening. May as well get flexi and zen during this crazy time 🤷🏽♀️🥰
Totally the same :) All the best for you too 🌷
Anyone here doing this for PROCESS? This practice felt so good. I'd not done yoga in a couple weeks and this was the perfect practice to let me ease into the whole thing. ❤
I am!
yes!!
Yes!
I'm getting back into my regular practice after a couple weeks off too. Glad to be back on the mat. 😊
Yes!
Salute day 7; after an emotionally exhausting day this practice was just challenging enough so that I worked hard but was reminded to listen to my body and modify as needed. Thank you Adriene ❤️
Woke up carrying some of the stress from the week with me, but feeling much lighter after that ❤️ hope all the other folk doing Bridge enjoy & have a great weekend!
My favourite bit of these yoga practices is when you ask us to look down in to a pond, in to water, and see our own reflection. It's the most beautiful image. Thank you Adriene. Namaste. X
Me too❤️ when I was around 16 I used to take my dog on a “walk” every day to a tree park near my house that has the most magical little stream. My dog ended up getting fat because I would take her to the stream and just sit there for a couple hours, just taking it all in. All the bird songs and how the sunlight hit the plants, the sound the water made, and of course my daily joint. So I’m always taken precisely to those beautiful moments of my life

The feeling when, despite working out every day, Adriene probably has more strength in just her toes than in your gym-built arms 😅
Loved this Yoga kiss, felt great. Adriene thank you for the core work:) Enjoy your weekend everyone 🧡🧡❤❤💛💛
Admire 2-29-24. What a great way to spend the extra day of the year. One extra day to do yoga this year!!! What could be better than that?
Congratulation on 10 million subscriber 🙂
Today marks 6 months since I retired, and 6 months of almost daily yoga with Adriene. Before retirement, I did 3 or practices a week. During the first 4 months I also worked at losing 30 pounds. I am successfully keeping the weight off, and my knees don't complain on stairs any more. I have become a lot stronger. I can even see a tiny bicep bulge (if I flex in just the right way). I have begun trying to hop to the top of the mat when transitioning from down dog to forward fold. And this week, I have begun to add back some low impact cardio.
I truly believe that if I hadn't found Adriene 7 or so years ago, I would be in terrible physical condition, but thankfully, I feel that I am in better shape than many in my age group.
Thanks Adriene!
This is great to hear. Her practices are so easy to keep a routine with. I have had a couple periods when I lost track of regular practice with her but overall, I wish I had found this channel before May 2019 when I started following her.
Great practice. I kept smiling throughout the session because I'm flowing so easily. Thanks to Adriene, Benji, and the rest of my yoga community. Blessings, and have a blessed, productive day 🙏 .Namaste ❤❤❤
Hello to all! Here we go with day 2 on our February calendar. Today I woke up, felt I didn’t want to practice for 40 minutes (of course “there was a reason”, I was clearly late 😆😉), thought of choosing a shorter video instead, then got on the mat... And my body told me it wanted this one. And I did it, and it was amazing. For the first time in 4 months, I truly felt it was not an act of conscious discipline but rather a true gift to myself, kindness in and out, no pressure, like a gentle kiss. It made me get out of my head and feel alive, today. My dearest fellow yogis, I send you all the love from the Austrian Alps straight into your hearts. May you have a beautiful Sunday, enjoy this practice as a gift that it is, and know you are not alone in this. See you tomorrow on the mat 🥰
💗
Glad you felt that too! I'm pretty sure that was the whole point of the practice
I did not want to do a 40min session at first as well, but I also sat down and just started. The slow build of the session along with the intensity at the end kept me engaged and out of my own head. Glad to have worked out with ya!
@@michaelknight7333 that's how it often is! Adriene always creates our practice in a way that gently builds up, gaining momentum only when body and mind are prepared, so we are not thrown into anything abruptly :)
Very challenging today. Thank you. Namaste
Another amazing month of yoga down. I still struggle at times but I feel so much stronger, and this is the longest continuous timeframe I've had of doing Yoga with Adriene. Gonna keep going every single day! Namaste! 🧘🏻♂️
Hey everyone! I just wanted to thank Adrienne and every “find what feels good” yogi. I started my yoga practice last summer and Adrienne’s was the first video I came across on UA-cam. I made a commitment to myself, not just to lose weight but to find some worth in myself again. Since that day I haven’t stopped! I’ve lost 50 pounds! But I’ve gained so much good, my sleep is more restorative, my posture is straighter, I can keep up with my kids! I have decreased my symptoms of anxiety and depression. So thank you Adrienne, I feel like I know you through our little practices every day haha. I’ve never felt judged or like I have to be a perfect yogi to be part of this community and it feels really good! My weight is starting to plateau a bit so keep those hour long challenging videos coming! I’m ready for them!
How long did it take for you to start losing the weight? I did the 30 days and have been doing yoga almost every day for about 45 days. And I've GAINED like 7 pounds. Idk why but I'm hoping to start losing soon
Salute day7❤️🔥
Caught myself smiling so many times during this, here for the December honor calendar :)
Love, love this practice!
It was challenging but it made me feel super strong. Enjoy this month!
omg same, smiled so much during this one. definitely one of my favs i’ve ever done with her!
Me too!!
same here! It was so wonderfull xx
✨thank you for replenishing my cup today Adriene. Wishes of a beautiful Sunday for all in this beautiful community 🌸!
Nice practice today. Felt really good. Thank you. Namaste
Kiss started off so gentle and soothing that I was not expecting some intense strength building, even though I know I need it. I can definitely see why this was chosen as the first video for July 2021 Process.
I was crying the whole time but managed to finished this 40min workout. I don’t feel good today but thank you for this Adriene! Namaste!
Feel better, dear. x
Here’s to feeling better I’ll say a prayer for you👍🏼
Thank you everyone!
Sending lots of positive energy your way to support u during this tough time.
I hope you feel better now
This exercise; I don't know how many times I've done it over the past couple of years, and it's just SO great and beautiful every time ❤️. Every time there seems to be new bodily revelations and mental relaxation and focus. Looooooove it 🙏🧘🏻♂️😘
Great class and a bit harder to build solid strength. I will definitely do this class again and thank you for taking us to the last day of February. My friend and I did this wonderful "kiss" class just before she left Maui to fly home. I will miss her and this special class was wonderful way to express our friendship.
I felt my whole body soften after this practice while still feeling I am getting stronger.
Hello fellow bridgers and everyone else practicing! Good job showing up for yourself!
lots of love :)
Hi there fellow Bridges. That was tough but I feel like all my body received some attention. Oh goodness, those boat poses!!!!Looking forward to seeing our calendar for March
Hi, Also here from Bridge. Hello to the 1,341 of you that just practiced with me. I needed all of those "kisses" today!
Whew, after yesterday's deep core, those low boats nearly killed me, but I'm super proud of myself for sticking with it. Feeling amazing and ready to take on the day!
Definitely found my core over the last couple of days. Not sure if I can keep up with anymore tomorrow but will try!
Today was super rough for me, I started a new medication on thursday and the side effects come and go. I’ve done this practice before without too much trouble, but now i find myself struggling a lot. Trying however to be kind to myself (even if it’s hard sometimes), and not be mean to myself and my body when it has a perfectly valid reason for not being perfect today. I love this community though. I’ll take a quick breather, see if I can continue. Otherwise, I’ll spent the rest of the evening just being kind to myself
Meds are sometimes a blessing and sometimes a curse. I hope the blessing percentage goes up for you 🖤
@@laurareed2612 thank you so much ❤️❤️ i took a breather and now i’m back better than ever 🥰
perfect practice to start out a new month…july 2021 anyone?
As much as I love the 30 days challenges, I'm kinda past the beginners stuff. This session was perfect!! So happy we have you Adriene. Your loving encouragement is very much appreciated!!
Hello Blossom yogis from Day 12🌸 I love this one! It is challenging but also grounding. And I feel a lot more strong since the beginning of the Move journey. Thank you so much Adriene for providing us these perfect yoga flows and your companionship. It's such a pleasure to experience them. I am so grateful for you. Have a lovely weekend everyone! Namaste🙏💌
The practice that started my daily journey with Adriene 341 days ago.
well done!!
Very nice! Day 58 myself
Oh boy! What a great first video in about 2 months. Back on track! ❤❤
Coming to the mat today with a heart full of love and so much joy! No matter how many times i do this practice i never ever get tired of it!!! I love itttt. Leaves me feeling so so strong light and free~
I knew that this 40 minute practice would be rather challenging for this senior yogi, but hey, I just modified as I went. I’m still searching for this playlist but I found our first day for Process, Yoga Kiss. As when I did this 4 months ago, I welcomed that cool down. It was soooo good 😊 see you tomorrow on the mat 🧘🏼♀️🧘🏻♀️🙏💕
Always love to read about your journey Gill, happy July!
Thank you Astrid 🙏 Yes, Happy July ! 🧘🏼♀️🧘🏻♀️💕😊🌷🌿
Happy New Month Gill! I always love to hear how you modify to find what feels good. You have such an amazing memory to know what we did four months ago! I am lucky if I remember what I did four minutes ago!
I got a massage for my sciatic yesterday and I’m really sore and in pain today so I’m going to just listen to this one today and try to relax my body and not resist the pain. I’m onto a new book called, “You are Not Your Pain” and it’s helped me get some much needed hope that I can live with this discomfort (in this moment at least.)
I hope the sun is shining. We have clouds today and cool breeze! I’m loving it ☁️ ♥️
Thanks for news Laura. So sorry for your pain🥺😢 I always think of you when I have a challenging practice and adjust to keep it fun. I am so pleased you’re chilling with your new book and hope it helps 🤞. 😂 my memory is not good Laura. I can read my comment below from last time I did this practice. It’s good to compare my fitness. Not so good lately but improving slowly !! Sending you good vibes for July, on or off the mat 🙏🏻🧘🏼♀️🌷🌿💕
@@gillsmith6740 even better than having a good memory is being clever enough to leave yourself breadcrumbs of information to refer to! I would never think to look back at my previous complaints I mean comments!!! 😂 it helped to see your comment this morning so I knew healthy body yoga would be ok. I don’t have any pain this morning 🤷🏻♀️ but I’m not going to push anything. Nighttime is worse for some reason. Vinyasa flows are not for me either.
I feel so bad for Adriene’s mom and Adriene. I just read the email 😞. When my mom was annoying the 🤬 out of me I thought of Adriene’s mom and checked myself.
I was hesitant to start this practice today e be n though I’ve proven to myself I can do longer practices but just when I finally stepped on the mat the sun came out and I was able to do my practice in the brightest crispiest sunshine! Much love!
1st day of process.. turning to the mat every single day since 1st of january and it changed my life. Adriene changed my life. This one was amazing. Felt so good
Also here since beginning of Breath. Didn't think I'd even get through that and yet I keep coming back every day. Has changed my self belief that I can stay on course and keep turning up for something so worthwhile. So let's keep going!
Everyday this month this February calendar provided exactly what I needed...how does adriene sync into all that? ❤ This yoga community is absolutely amazing! Send love and light to all. 🧘♀️😍
Lovely practice. I always love Adrien's choices of words like "Lift your heart, kiss the sky" ❤️ Have a beautiful day fellow yogis ❤️🙏
Thank you for your kiss ❤ Adriene ❤
September 2024 Salute...all the kisses we receive😇
Hoping the kisses will inspire more work--my boat is pretty rickety 😉
I just had to say Adriene, congratulations on reaching 10 million subscribers. 10 million people being inspired to build yoga as a daily practice! It's incredible. What a gift you have given us. Sending you and your dear mum lots of love during this tender and difficult time. Namaste 🙏
This is my 4th day of doing yoga with Adriene and listen when I tell you this, I've never felt so good for past few years like this after an exercise! I've been trying to increase exercising by going to gym, trying to do different variations of practice they all felt exhausting... Now I feel like I found my way of exercise and also relax my mind and my thoughts! I'm so glad I found this community and hopefully I will stick with it!!
I did not think I'd be able to make time today for a 40 minute practice, but I knew I wanted to start July out on a positive note. After a long day at work I was tempted to stay in bed, but adriene was in my head saying otherwise. Half the battle is showing up and I did that today. Yoga kiss was perfect. It got me sweating and shaking which is always a good sign. I may not be able to get to every practice this month, but starting day 1 of 31 sets the tone.
My mind has been racing all night long and I thought I would not be able to focus, but I got into and finally cleared my head for a bit. I might have to do several today just to keep that peace of mind!! Thank you for another wonderful practice!
Having a good day YWA friends?
Breath and Bridge family? How does today's practice find you?
I have to admit there was quite a bit of irritation today. Thoughts flying. Too much talking. Let's move along. What, doing that again?! And having a headache did not help. I have done this before and loved it so it is no reflection on Adriene. Definitely not. Perhaps it was similar to the feelings that come up sometimes when the weekend ends and the work week starts, only here we had done so many short practices leading up to this longer one. I really should add in some other videos like some of you do to even out the practice times.
All that aside, I know you will enjoy this one. I did despite the difficulty. Can say that after lying on my mat for some minutes at the end. 🙏
Bridge day 27. Day 146 in a row.
I so appreciate your honesty, William - and your really relatable description of your thoughts and state of being. How great that you have done this practice before so that you could recognize the difference in those things for you...and how, again, true to yourself to acknowledge them. Last, how brave and true to then do your best to settle in and enjoy as you were able. Luckily for me, I was in a good place for this longer, more in depth practice - and I was really enjoying the metaphor of each subtle movement being a kiss and relishing those sensations - so the pace and verbal prompts were working! Take care, and hope your weekend is nourishing and restful.
Today was a struggle for me as well, but a needed one. Low boats and I do not yet get along, so today was an exercise in failure and the conversation I have around that. I'm in a season of life where I have to take a lot of risks and embrace failure as feedback and opportunities for growth. My initial reaction to the inability to do low boats is frustration, then shame, and in past versions of myself I would let this be the reason I stopped showing up. But if failure is only feedback then this is just something I need to build up to, and now have a target to shoot for. I am so grateful to this family, this practice and to you William for voicing your own challenges so that others feel free to express themselves in support and kinship with you.
@@ellenp.4873 So glad to hear. 🙏💜
@@jasonsandmann6768 Oddly, low boats went well for me despite not feeling well. Usually, they do not. Just goes to show we never really know what will meet us physically on the mat. The mental aspect, well, yes, that is another matter.
@@jasonsandmann6768 your perspective here is inspiring me as William's did! Such self awareness, struggle and ultimately compassion, determination and commitment are truly where we can live out our best, healthiest and happiest selves....but oh, so hard sometimes to move through! Thank you BOTH.
This was the nicest and most enjoyable yoga practice I have ever done in my whole life...thank you x
Thank you! You kept me sane thru the pandemic.
Admire Feb 29 ✅ I was so into it I was surprised time went by so fast. Boat was easier than before. I love when I see improvement. Thank you so much! ❤
My favorite practice from Bridge!!! Cleansed my soul and pulled me back to the present just when I needed it.
Wow!! A 40 minute class post the 30 day yoga journey? I am totally down to breaking a little sweat. Looking forward to what this month has to offer as I just happened to write the first two pages of the second chapter of my 2020. Thanks for this loving, magical practice, Adriene. Let's keep the energy flowing everyone. We've got this. Namaste.
She posts a new video every Sunday. It's great, along with her monthly playlists.☺
Salute. September 7. 1434 days.
It’s 10pm and I’m here! Determined! X
Amazing morning with the amazing HONOR calendar, Adriene, you're a miracle on this earth 🥰 lots of kisses for encouraging us ever day to be kinder and makin us stronger! ✨
Perfectly stated. Bravo!
Nice reminder to slow down for the weekend when my mind was buzzing with everything I needed to do. Forget how much I enjoy the boat sequence at the end. Hope everyone enjoys their practice & has a lovely weekend.
🌸 Blossom day 12 🌸
I felt some resistance to this sequence again. I overcame it by doing it at my own pace, mostly sped up but with a couple breaks as well. I actually was surprised how easy low boat felt...the first time. A little rough water on the second round. Welcome to July everyone.
Process day 1. 270 days in a row.
I also felt some resistance, but kept going and managed to do what I could. We made it to July! Sending love and strength to everyone. We're in it together.
I was going through comments and just read through your older comment thread, then I found this! I also have struggles with this practice and usually take a break in the middle to re-motivate myself or just to calm down my brain when it gets mad that I can't do a pose💞
We can!

I love you, Adriene! Your lessons have completely changed my life. When I first began my practice with you, I was really struggling. My relationship was struggling, my finances, my personal growth, my self-care routine. I started with your short 10 minute videos and it was enough to help me get a break from the constant motion of my daily life. As I began to deepen my practice, I started to really love myself and I learned how to extend that love to my partner and then it sort of rippled into every other aspect of my life. Today, (wow! It's only been maybe a year and a half!) I moved to the mountains with my boyfriend, which was our dream together. I absolutely love my job. I'm a CNA and I've learned to sincerely love all of my residents as if they were actually my own family members even though I only work temporarily at facilities and I'm used to them forgetting me. I still treasure each and every special moment that I have with them and some of them, I still wonder what they're up to. I have this amazing apartment that has this gorgeous view of the mountains. I have learned to cook all of this fantastic food. I've started my own home care business (still early in that, but I know it's going to be great). I am learning to play the piano. I've become an avid reader. Right now, I'm reading the Invisible Life of Addie Larue. My boyfriend and I are learning to speak French together. I have become a pretty decent painter. I really love my life. I am so thankful for everything that you have taught me, Adriene. I don't think that my life would be the way that it is today if it weren't for you teaching me how to love myself one yoga video at a time. Thank you!!
Also, all of this taught me to be more compassionate toward my partner. He was struggling with his mental health and this helped me to create a peaceful environment and learn to respond to him in a way that was more loving and attentive. I encouraged him to seek help and I did everything I could to let him know that I wasn't judging him and that I really just loved him and wanted him to be happy. Eventually, we discovered that he was suffering from PTSD from being in the infantry. The VA is helping him with it now. He struggled for such a long time before he knew what it was and now, he's a lot happier too. He is so much more optimistic. He takes much better care of himself. He laughs so much more. I can hear him laughing in the next room right now, playing his xbox game with his friends. He is so much more ambitious than he used to be. I can tell that he really believes in himself now. He has started aggressively pursuing his goals and he has been such an amazing partner to me. I feel so lucky to have him. Thanks again, Adriene.
... I remember the days whan it was difficult to feel 'like I love myself'... But anchored in a trust it helped me to transform that into a loving relationship here, inside, and to feel that I am at home... Lovely day to everyone 🧡 Namaste 🙏
Lako je voljeti druge kada voliš sebe ♥
@@Noukz37 Da 🧡, no mislim da je važno i to da znamo - to da volimo sebe i druge je jedan neraskidivi proces, koji se uzajamno gradi, taj preobražaj doživljavam i kroz lično iskustvo, i nije jednostavan, premda može biti lak. Neko se ne može osetiti voljeno, ako nije bio voljen. Ne postoji individua istrgnuta iz zajednice, samoformirana, u bilo čemu, pa ni u ljubavi. Čini mi se da se samoljubav previše naglašava, nekad i pogrešno, izolovano. Sve je to jedan kružni uzajamni proces, između nas i našeg okruženja. 🧡
@@jelenanedeljkovic605 Slažem se, ljubav je tako jednostavna a tako naizgled komplikovana. 🙂 Bitno je samo da ne komplikujemo kada nema potrebe, kako svoja osjećanja tako i sa tuđim.
Can't believe I did yoga for two whole months 🎉
Salute Day 7 ✅️ Loved today 🔥 Thank you ❤🙏
🌻☀️July Yoga Calendar, 2021☀️🌻
Day 1 💛 ✔️
Namaste. 🙏🏻
That was energetic! Phew! Leap Year bonus! 😊
So glad I showed up for Day 1 of Process. Can't wait to see how I can show up for myself the rest of this month
You rock, Adriene. Your videos are just so inspiring in the middle of this global crisis. You bring peace to this community and we really appreciate it. Thank you Adriene. Namaste🙏🏻 Pray for everyone’s safety and health.
Global crisis?
@@tarun1982 I reckon the caronavirus.
@@KattBon There are quite a few things going on I won't bother to list them if you are in blissful unawareness.
