Oooh Sweet Benji, Always Great to see you baby . Boy, am I wore out , but I made it through, that's all that counts. Namaste Everyone, have a a Beautiful day! 🧘🏼♀️🙏🏻😘😘♥️♥️♥️🐶🐾🐾🌳🍃🍁🍂🍃🍁🍂🍃🍁🍂💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🎉🎉 22:46
Such an insightful and profound quote about making friends with reality! It reminds me of this, also by Lao Tzu: "The hard and stiff will be broken. The soft and supple will prevail." Thank you for another year of a beautiful journey, Adriene! Much love to everyone practicing, apart but together in community 💖
Made it to Day 9!! I still feel ridiculously "clunky" (nothing "flows"), but I found out I still have decent balance so "woohoo" to that. Not as sore, except for when we squat at the end of the mat before standing. Left leg just burns - any suggestions to accommodate this so it is not so painful or is it just a strengthening thing that needs time.
As we prepare for our daughter's brain surgery on Friday (first time typing that - ouch!), I am going to release the worry about it, as it will not serve us. I am saving this practice, so I can do this over and over again - totally felt the energy shift from beginning to end. Hope everyone got their Zoolander on today and knocked loud on heaven's door! Thankful for you all!
Sending prayers for a great outcome from your daughters surgery, and for you, Mama, that you may be able to continue releasing your worry and keep your heart calm and your mind still.🙏🏼 Breathwork helps❤
Today's knocking on heavens door was amazing! I wish the best for you and your daughter and I also recommend breathworks as they have helped me immensely to reconnect to myself in tough times, they have really changed my life :) Sending hugs to all of you and see you tomorrow on the mat
My dear mum died yesterday and after a day full of grieving alongside my family I felt compelled to stick to my YWA routine. I sobbed my heart out while doing it and felt so grateful that Day 8 was named Relax and allowed myself to surrender to it. After another day of grieving but with more smiles and laughter today I feel such strength and peace from today's Release. Much Love to all on this journey whatever we are going through xx Thank you Adriene. xx
I am so sorry for your loss. Well done for taking some self care in this sad time and stretch your body.hope you are feeling lots of love abd aupport sourround you
Good morning everyone. Wishing you all a wonderful Day 9 practice. May it be a release of all the things internally that are holding you back, causing you pain or trouble and may your days be a little lighter 💕
Hey to all my queens who feel like they're "behind" -- I see you! I'm so happily here and practicing with you, too! This is our moment for Day 9, and I hope it's wonderful for you
a consistent yoga practice helped me so much when my partner moved across the country 4months before i did! it's an opportunity to foster the connection with yourself, and prioritize your own practices >> time by yourself
The hawk at 20:22 - "oh hey are we knocking on heavens door? I can do that too!" I was not in a very good mood coming to the mat today but the Zoolander reference brightened my mood. Thank you as always Adriene! And to all of us who keep showing up, let's do our best! We got this ✨
I gasped out loud when I saw it, what a well timed wildlife sighting. I once had a sharp-shinned hawk fly right towards me at eye level and then cut off to one side, it was so cool to have that close encounter ❤
@@megsuttoncreates ooooh now that you mentioned it, Scooby and I use to do yoga with Adriene & Benji on my patio on early summer mornings. Often I would open my eyes and a hawk would be sitting peacefully on my fence hanging out with us. It happened a few times. Magical! Those were some beautiful mornings!
Can we do ONE WHOLE DAY of 'knocking on heaven's door' hahaha! Heyyy Adriene and my fellow practitioners. Day 9 done yayyy!!! My airplane hands were weirdly funny. I was getting a cramp in my left arm while doing it XD Thank you for today! Hoping all of us have a great day ahead
I felt similar about my airplane arms - I really struggled with keeping the palms facing down and not upward. Glad I'm not the only one who had difficulties with them :) Have a lovely rest of your day!
It was so hard for me to come to the mat today. I had an emotional night last night with a panic attack, but I did the practice anyway and I'm glad I did. I thought my body wouldn't be capable of some of those poses, but I surprised myself. I'm thankful for this practice today.
So proud of you for showing up and surprising yourself with your strength!! Rooting for you! I feel you with the panic attack and anxiety, this episode felt like it was perfectly aligned to help with that!
If you get to my comment, then let it be a reminder to always work at your own pace. Last year was my first 30 day challenge which I planned to complete in 30 days but life got in the way and I did it in about 80 days. But I DID finish and that’s a lot more yoga than I did all of the rest of the year. This year, knowing myself, I challenged myself to do this in 60 days: one session every other day. I started a little late but I’ve kept up with my commitment even though I’m pregnant and doing this with modifications. Set realistic goals for yourself and see yourself succeed! 🚀
Thanks for sharing I have been really frustrated and insecure about myself double doubting if I should give up and if I'm doing it wrong because I'm doing at most 3 days every week but I promise myself that I would complete these 30 days. It feels good to know that we are not alone, and gives me confidence knowing that trying is enough even if it's not perfect. I wish you all the success in your path and I'm greatfull for your indiscriminate words of support.
Thank you for your message. This is my first year trying the programme, I had to take quite a few days off due to lack of fitness and then life got in the way. But I'm back now and your story helped to remind me to be kind to myself and just keep going!
@@ThomasSommeregger 👏👏👏 Feb 6, just completed Day 15. I’ve fallen behind before but I’ve always caught back up. It felt difficult to get started some days, but as Adriene always says, showing up is the hardest part.
I unfortunately got Covid on 2 January - my fourth infection. I've still been tuning in every day, even though all I do is breathing exercises and some floor work (cat-cows feel so nice on my back after being in bed all day). Then I just watch Adriene and Benji and read all the lovely comments. I join in when we say 'I feel strong' to send my struggling body some positive healing vibes. It's not what I imagined for this month, but I really appreciate having something to look forward to every night and staying in touch with people around the world when I'm isolated at home. Thank you Adriene, and everyone in this community 😊💛
OMG, instant classic! What joy you bring to the world Adriene. For those of us who have practiced before, who was waiting for the words ‘zoolander moment’! You didn’t disappoint. And who could not be cheered by the wonderful‘knocking on heaven’s door’. Although I was feeling a little sorry for myself at the outset, by the time we got to this part I had a wide grin on my face. Relishing this moment, this gift of practice and this community. Thank you Adriene. Thank you Yoga with Adriene community. Namaste 🙏🏽
Good morning dear community! I'm still here doing the live sessions every day, even with two kids around 🙂 Being part of this community feels great. Thank you Adriene for creating this space and the wonderful practice. For me this is the perfect way to start into the day and also creating better habits. I have so much more energy throughout the day. Sending love to all fellow yogis out there ♥
I wanted to write today to feel like a part of the community. I have been going through it these past weeks mentally. So many obsessive thoughts and I am grateful to return to the practice every day and let these go or at least let the expectation of them disappearing go. I am not my obsessive thoughts and I am not my anxiety. 🧘♀️❤ Happy day 9 for those who are a few days behind like me. 🎉
Loved today! This was mostly new movements for me and felt so wonderful! Definitely surprised at my improvement and just so grateful to have this experience. It's reaffirming much more than the physical ❤ Sweating and Smiling as I try to keep the flow flowing into my day 🌻🌻🌻
im catching on a little late, i missed a few days since our beloved uncle's sudden passing. these practices have been a gift ❤ did day 8's relaxing practice for 2 days, and i felt really afraid i wouldn't be able to do or handle this one, I've been avoiding it. this morning i felt that tug thats telling me to try and show up anyway- what a blessing 🙏 whispered "i am strong" in the standing one-legged tadasana. released all things, especially fear, that holds me back. thank you adriene ❤ thank you everyone ❤ sending love and good vibes to you all. we got this! 💗 ✨
This was tough for me - I'm 66 and have chronic fatigue syndrome and some of my poses are very dodgy! But proud of myself for showing up each day and very grateful!
i also have chronic fatigue! im having a particularly low spoon day today and broke down crying about 6 minutes in because my body wasn't taking it. im so proud of you for turning up to the mat, i know it's difficult.
Loved having some spiritual commentary featured in today’s video! I’ve been wondering this past week if Adrienne had decided to stop providing that commentary in her 30-day challenges and I was really starting to miss it! Doing the moves and exercises are helpful, but doing it with statements and thoughts to anchor those moves in is what makes this feel like a true practice to me🙏🏽
I release the idea that I'm one day behind. I'm exactly where I need to be. I like to practice first thing in the morning but due to an early work meeting, I had to practice in the afternoon. It's a good reminder for me to be flexible when things don't go according to plan, that's okay, release expectations or attachment, and pick it back up when you can. See y'all on the mat tomorrow!
It really helped me to make an 'options' or 'possibilities' list instead of a 'to do' list. Now it doesnt feel awful anymore whenever i havent done one/more of my options or possibilities because i didnt obliged myself to do it in the first place. Sadly it mostly only counts for personal live because work will be work lol
I couldn’t seem to quiet my mind this morning. Some days are harder than others! I’m grateful for this practice and those practicing along side me for holding me in this space ❤
I had a health scare this week, and today at my doctor’s appointment, he told me everything is fine, there’s no need to worry. I am so relieved and happy and joyous over this, and that was enhanced by today’s practice. I was smiling so much during knocking on heaven’s door, it felt incredible ❤
I love the braids! Some of my favorite moves are in this practice! They definitely tested my balance and strength, which I totally love! Thank you for helping me release tension. It's been a trying week and I am so happy to be on this journey with you and Benji and so many others! Thank you for this safe place❤
Im finding motivation for daily tasks and life a struggle very regularly at the moment but managing to show up everyday for this , this will be my 4th year of 30 days and i know i love it. There is also such love in this community i truly feel part of a yoga family. I have a day off to day stared with sending the kids off to school then yoga , i feel much more awake and motivated so will make the most of it and go for a short walk and have a bath . You are all worthy of self love . Im truly greatful for this channel the 30 day series and the community here ❤❤
Lovely! Thank you. ❤ During knocking on heaven’s gate, Benji left the view of the camera. My screen is on the wall next to a door. My pup, Billie, walked to the other side of the wall through the door to look for Benji!
There is something rather lovely about the daily email message and the sweet daily practices. So cute to see Adriene and Benji interacting. Another great practice, thank you. Have a beautiful day everyone 🤗💞💖💞
Day 9, gets tougher but more interesting. Reading all the comments I feel like I’m connected to you all so something feels missing if I don’t show up for the practice. Even though I am doing this 5 months later haha. Thank you A and B. A lot of unnecessary thoughts have been released from mind after today’s practice. ❤
Hey, I decided to skip the practice today because I was too sore. But came here anyway. So so so proud of myself for being here and completing the practice. Love you Adriene ❤
Thank You, Adriene.❤ I've been feeling very angry and sad lately, and, although doing yoga can't solve all my problems, it seems like life guided me to a practice that I honestly needed very much. I enjoyed today's session, it was a good experience. Have a great day, everyone! Namasté.🙏
I did mot want to get to the mat today, but I did it. That’s the power of yoga. Showing up was most of the battle for me. Proud of everyone who showed up!
skipped a few down ward dogs today to honor the bod but def devoted to seeing this through to day 30! thankful to have the practice & smiling reading comments :)
20 min are really just the perfect duration for such a challenge. It is neither too short like 10 min, where you have to stop when you warmed-up, nor is it too long for procrastination to kick in. As I am currently doing the challenge on top of my regular workout schedule (all group fitness courses), I was really glad about the relaxed session yesterday. Tuesday is one of my harder days and as I feel like I had a breakthrough with my body awareness last year, I moved with a lot of intention through yesterdays flexibar and deepWork workouts. My muscles got the message that they need to grow to support me so today was accompanied by muscle pain. Good thing today was about release! :D And that I learned through yoga to notice and accept how my body feels. Thanks for the workout, Adrienne! ❤
I got all ready to follow the class this morning. Only to find that that our internet disappeared after the first minute. So all I had was RELEASE !? Walked away after my improvised class happy to have had just that! Such much we absorb and expect from ourselves and others and so necessary to release and slow down and focus on what really matters😊
I really wasn't feeling it today but I told myself that 'the hardest part is showing up' and I showed up. Turns out it was actually one of the BEST yoga session's I have had EVER! I felt so balanced and centred and really tapped into my inner (and outer) smile. Thank you Adriene! And to all that are here, regardless if you've missed some days or not done as well as you think you should have, WE'RE DOING IT!!!! WE CAN DO IT!!! So much love to you all. Namaste
I have had the flu so I am a week behind! What a wonderful reminder to "release" the expectation of being "on time" with the practice. I plan on doing 2 per day until I get caught back up.
I unexpectedly found myself sobbing during the knocking on heaven's door! I think I've been being very hard on myself recently, and that bit truly felt like a release from it all. I'm feeling called to do a lot less judging of myself, and be a lot kinder. Sending the same hopes to everyone else as well ♥
I love to do this with my earbuds in and I LOVE when I can hear Adriene’s heart beating!!! I can often hear my own as well. Reminds me that we’re here together living a life where we are so lucky to do it together🤍✨
Revisited this one today on a whim as part of my daily practice and it felt AMAZING, especially coming back from a respiratory ick. I did her "sick person yoga" ones the last couple days so today I felt the need to "release" illness. Perfect!
I know I'm way behind in the yoga journey, but it's been so helpful to get back into yoga again with the 30-day flow. Thank you, Adrienne, for the reminder to let go of our expectations and to just keep trying. ❤️
This was so perfect for me today. I’m struggling to accept that my breastfeeding journey with my baby is over. Shed some tears with “release that which is no longer serving”. And I love that Adriene didn’t say “serving YOU”. It’s not serving us anymore. Took deep breaths, enjoyed knocking on heaven’s door to release it, and felt grateful for all these months breastfeeding. Deep breaths for new phases and new beginnings
Thanks to this 30 day yoga the more i stick with it the more i feel the peace in my mind and my heart i have Post partum depression and this really helps me so much. Thankyou ❤❤❤
Day 9, February 2nd. Feels smother and stronger with each practice. Love the atmosphere and joy I get with you. Thank you, Adriene and Benji ❤! Lots of love ❤️ Namaste 🙏
Thank you thank you! Practicing here on a sailboat which affords a beautiful view but not a very stable surface. So had to just laugh and go with it in the balance moves. Love to you all around the world! Thanks for another great year of yoga and community.
Knocking on heaven's door made me so happy, I smiled. In the midst of an exiatential crisis and a lot of crying, I smiled and laughed at myself 😂 Namaste ❤
i did that with 6259 people this morning! i haven't gotten up this early in a long time (6am) and the reason for that is i have a diploma exam in a few hours. my body was nervous before this, due to nightmares about the exam, and i noticed that. there's a tiny bit of nerves left but i feel centred. before and during my yoga i found happiness in the small moments, and those are the moments that truly matter to me. i looked outside at the darkness and realized "huh, i think i like being up this early" i saw the snow hugging the trees and land outside and i felt a childlike joy. during my downward dog i suddenly felt this joy toward a lamp in the corner of the room. it may sound silly to some but seeing that warm light made me feel cozy inside and i felt so happy to have that. i chose to release control, and expectations of how well i will 'perform' on my exam. any result is okay, all that matters is that i showed up to that exam and tried my very best. i can be a perfectionist, and so usually during exams i would push myself too hard to perfect everything, and i'm going to notice that today and try to keep my time as mindful as possible there. i know i will be okay, like always, despite some discomfort, and i'm looking forward to going for a walk afterwards in the trails in the forest with my mom. good luck future me! and thank you so much for this practice, and if you've read this far thank you for doing this for yourself
I've been following this challenge slowly to get used to incorporating yoga into my daily routine without straining myself (three days a week to start!) and I can't thank you enough for these videos! due to my ADHD, OCD and anxiety, I really struggle with grounding myself and often get stuck in my head (I used to dissociate frequently) but doing this practice has helped me a lot. just yesterday I was feeling so overwhelmed but being able to release it here this morning has made me feel so much better already. plus I noticed my balance has improved 👀 now whenever I have to reach for a glass in the cupboard or something like that I do a little leg stretch like the lunges we do here just for fun 😂 it feels great to be more aware of my body and more present. everyone is going through something or has some hardship in life and I'm really grateful to have a space to just let that go and feel connected with myself and anyone else who's following along. you're doing wonders adriene, thank you so much 🙏
Год назад+24
🌞Day 9🌞 This practice felt so good and all the tension in my body has really been released. I really enjoy the premiere and practice every day at the same time with so many of you. It helps to start the day right and keep myself accountable to show up. Thank you and see you tomorrow! :)
I tumbled out of bed and stumbled to the yoga mat, Felt my back twinge and wondered ‘what’s up with that?”….. literally. Back sore to start but soon felt better. First time I’ve got here for the start at 6am. Routines are changing because this matters. Thank you 🙏
@@ChrisJames-p7x Oh it is really live? I didn't realize. That's midnight here on the east coast of the US, so I can't attend anyway, but good to know. It may be about 9pm where Adriene is, so that makes sense. I'm still loving it, though! Namaste.
Really enjoyed today, I've been loving all of them, I find you very easy to follow, I can have my eyes closed and mostly just follow your voice. Thank you, namaste 🙏
this is the longest i’ve stuck to moving my body with intention in a long time. my body feels wonderful after each session and i definitely have a sense of accomplishment. i’ve also noticed that i’ve been using our breathing tactics throughout the day and it seems to help me some with my anxiety and feeling overwhelmed. i’m really enjoying this practice. thank you ❤❤❤
I'm doing this practice on the 29th of January, very much feeling behind and before starting today I even wondered if it was even worth it, as the month is coming to an end. For me, this has definitely been a month of trasformation. I began this yoga journey, as I do every year, in holiday mode and in lovely Paris. On the 8th of January I moved out of my parents home to start my new life in Turin, Italy. I felt so weird and agitated in the new house and I didn't feel 'safe' enough to let go and practice for even 20 minutes. I'm now slowly settling into my new life and organically feeling the need to get on the mat again, so right now I just feel immensely grateful for the comfort and the alignment I can always find in these yoga practices! It feels like coming home to myself! From now on, whenever I feel like doing some yoga I will just do it. I guess I could say, today I released the guilt of not following this with the utmost consistency!
this was just what i needed today. i was having a terrible day until i came to the mat and fully engaged in the practice, releasing the thoughts that were weighing down on me. thank you Adriene, for these mindful yet lighthearted practices.
Day 9 , and I had the most challanging practice so far. My thoughts were not kind to me today and they kept coming at me like arrows in every posture. But that is okay. See you all tomorrow, and almost 1/3 done already!
Totally understand that feeling. My mind was also being very judgemental of my abilities today. Just gotta forgive ourselves and recognize the work we are putting in. ❤️❤️
I felt the same way today and was giving myself a hard time bc it didn't flow at all, thanks so much for sharing your experience! it reminded me that its okay :)
I started feeling guilty for being “behind” but I had the worst day at work at a new job, left early and could not stop my mind racing, tried calling friends, taking a bath etc. I needed to let it go!! This yoga practice came in EXACTLY when I needed it. I will never again doubt giving myself grace. Thank you so so much ❤
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ After a week of back pain and muscle aches, todays practice felt so good and strong! I’m sad that I’ve fallen behind, but excited to continue my journey!
Did not get to this one until today. Thank you Adriene for a fun practice. Glad to have some balancing poses. That's an area this old lady needs to work on.😊🙏
Day nine! Thank you Adriene, Benji, and the YWA for a much needed practice! I appreciate these videos and this channel so, so much 🥰 To everyone practising, thank you for being here, and taking time for yourself! We're doing it; you've got this! I will see you tomorrow! 🤍🌱🤍
Allow, release and let go for optimal flow.
Those who flow as life flows know they need no other force.
LAO TZU
Thank you this felt great!❤
Oooh Sweet Benji, Always Great to see you baby . Boy, am I wore out , but I made it through, that's all that counts. Namaste Everyone, have a a Beautiful day! 🧘🏼♀️🙏🏻😘😘♥️♥️♥️🐶🐾🐾🌳🍃🍁🍂🍃🍁🍂🍃🍁🍂💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🎉🎉 22:46

Cheers to everyone who hasn’t been consistent because life but you STILL showin up 🙌🏼🙌🏼
Consistency can come in stages and it still counts! 💪
Flow 9 done on Feb 17th, still determined to get through it❤😅
We got this y’all✨
Who fell into the plant?😬 I did. Poor plant… Must work on my balance. Have a great day, everyone. Thanks so much, Adrienne and Benji xx
Thankfully I did not. 😆 Speedy recovery to your plant! Hope it feels better soon! 😉
no but need to save my laptop
hahaha I had a lil fall too
I so feel this lol! I had to use a chair. I am saving this one, to a list for legs/balance, it was really good.
Excellent!
My dear mum died yesterday and after a day full of grieving alongside my family I felt compelled to stick to my YWA routine.

My condolences to you and your family. 💔
I am so sorry for your loss. Well done for taking some self care in this sad time and stretch your body.hope you are feeling lots of love abd aupport sourround you
My dad died last month and the day after he passed, I did Adriene’s Yoga for Grief video. I highly recommend it. Sending you peace 💛
Sending you love.
Good morning everyone. Wishing you all a wonderful Day 9 practice. May it be a release of all the things internally that are holding you back, causing you pain or trouble and may your days be a little lighter 💕
Beautiful day to you too🌼🌻....thank you.
Gracias 🎉me encanta
Sun salutes to half moon 👍😍🥰
You have a Wonderful day as well! Thank You!❤

thanks for timing the hawk! awesome!
Yes! I came to the comments because I was like Oooh did ai just see a giant bird?!?!
I gasped out loud when I saw it, what a well timed wildlife sighting. I once had a sharp-shinned hawk fly right towards me at eye level and then cut off to one side, it was so cool to have that close encounter ❤

Loved it. I feel more and more relaxed with each practice. Thanks and lots of love to Adriene and sweet Benji and all practicing people ❤❤❤ Namaste
Can we do ONE WHOLE DAY of 'knocking on heaven's door' hahaha! Heyyy Adriene and my fellow practitioners. Day 9 done yayyy!!! My airplane hands were weirdly funny. I was getting a cramp in my left arm while doing it XD
Thank you for today! Hoping all of us have a great day ahead

Even when you think you're "behind," you're not alone. I just refreshed my screen and saw that I did this practice with over a thousand friends!
awesome! how have I not thought of that before? I practice late too and just as you said there was a 1000 of views difference after my practice!
OMG, instant classic! What joy you bring to the world Adriene. For those of us who have practiced before, who was waiting for the words ‘zoolander moment’! You didn’t disappoint. And who could not be cheered by the wonderful‘knocking on heaven’s door’. Although I was feeling a little sorry for myself at the outset, by the time we got to this part I had a wide grin on my face. Relishing this moment, this gift of practice and this community. Thank you Adriene. Thank you Yoga with Adriene community. Namaste 🙏🏽
I'm always looking forward to the "Adriene-isms". They make practice such a fun and joyful experience
I've never stuck with a 30 day yoga challenge this far... cheers to everyone who is pushing out of their comfort zones and staying consistent!
Good morning dear community! I'm still here doing the live sessions every day, even with two kids around 🙂 Being part of this community feels great. Thank you Adriene for creating this space and the wonderful practice. For me this is the perfect way to start into the day and also creating better habits. I have so much more energy throughout the day. Sending love to all fellow yogis out there ♥
I wanted to write today to feel like a part of the community. I have been going through it these past weeks mentally. So many obsessive thoughts and I am grateful to return to the practice every day and let these go or at least let the expectation of them disappearing go. I am not my obsessive thoughts and I am not my anxiety. 🧘♀️❤ Happy day 9 for those who are a few days behind like me. 🎉
Take care!
I am also going at my own pace 😄
here with you too. Hugs. We are already on the path.
So grateful for the community chat prior to session, thank you All.
Have a magical Wednesday everyone.
Hugs from a 🇩🇰in Sweden🇸🇪
Hello, fellow 🇩🇰 yogi 👋
Hello fellow 🇸🇪 yogi! 😊
Hello from me, a Swede living in Spain 🇪🇸 ❤
It’s just magnificent isn’t it.
@@paulmclaughlin6068it truly is❤
Loved today! This was mostly new movements for me and felt so wonderful! Definitely surprised at my improvement and just so grateful to have this experience. It's reaffirming much more than the physical ❤ Sweating and Smiling as I try to keep the flow flowing into my day 🌻🌻🌻
“Release that which is not serving you” I needed to hear that today. Merci! ❤
I, a non native speaker, understood "Release! That witch is not serving you!" and I thought ok, that was unexpected but Yoga has unexpected ways :D
hahaha i love that@@stkz9523
It really is such a powerful mantra :) 👁🧠🫀
Me too!! ❤
“Oldie but a goodie” made me LOL ❤ Thanks, I needed that!
im catching on a little late, i missed a few days since our beloved uncle's sudden passing. these practices have been a gift ❤
did day 8's relaxing practice for 2 days, and i felt really afraid i wouldn't be able to do or handle this one, I've been avoiding it. this morning i felt that tug thats telling me to try and show up anyway- what a blessing 🙏 whispered "i am strong" in the standing one-legged tadasana. released all things, especially fear, that holds me back.
thank you adriene ❤ thank you everyone ❤ sending love and good vibes to you all. we got this! 💗 ✨
I'm proud of all of us!
Me too.
Same here ☺️
Endorsed it.
everyone here is a warrior! so proud
Yesssss knocking on heavens door is such a treat! Also super cute hair today ❤
This was tough for me - I'm 66 and have chronic fatigue syndrome and some of my poses are very dodgy! But proud of myself for showing up each day and very grateful!
You should be proud! Way to go 👏👏
Proud of you! We can do this!
Congratulations on sticking with Adriene and all of us here in this supportive community ❤
i also have chronic fatigue! im having a particularly low spoon day today and broke down crying about 6 minutes in because my body wasn't taking it. im so proud of you for turning up to the mat, i know it's difficult.
Loved having some spiritual commentary featured in today’s video! I’ve been wondering this past week if Adrienne had decided to stop providing that commentary in her 30-day challenges and I was really starting to miss it! Doing the moves and exercises are helpful, but doing it with statements and thoughts to anchor those moves in is what makes this feel like a true practice to me🙏🏽
I release the idea that I'm one day behind. I'm exactly where I need to be. I like to practice first thing in the morning but due to an early work meeting, I had to practice in the afternoon. It's a good reminder for me to be flexible when things don't go according to plan, that's okay, release expectations or attachment, and pick it back up when you can. See y'all on the mat tomorrow!
It really helped me to make an 'options' or 'possibilities' list instead of a 'to do' list. Now it doesnt feel awful anymore whenever i havent done one/more of my options or possibilities because i didnt obliged myself to do it in the first place. Sadly it mostly only counts for personal live because work will be work lol
And here i am, doing day 9 'seven days late', but i dont mind
I couldn’t seem to quiet my mind this morning. Some days are harder than others! I’m grateful for this practice and those practicing along side me for holding me in this space ❤
I know how you feel!
I had a health scare this week, and today at my doctor’s appointment, he told me everything is fine, there’s no need to worry. I am so relieved and happy and joyous over this, and that was enhanced by today’s practice. I was smiling so much during knocking on heaven’s door, it felt incredible ❤
My heart is so happy to read this! Yay to this healthy, strong, beautiful body of yours ❤
I love the braids! Some of my favorite moves are in this practice! They definitely tested my balance and strength, which I totally love! Thank you for helping me release tension.
It's been a trying week and I am so happy to be on this journey with you and Benji and so many others! Thank you for this safe place❤
I noted the plaits today too. As it is SO warm here and humid. I realised that I had not yet tied up my hair.
Big thank you, Adriene! Practices with you are so comfy and soft for body as well as for mind. Keep it!
Good morning to all from Czech Republic! Enjoy the day and ride with Yoga 🙂 Thank you Adrienne!
Thanks for a great day 9! Afternoon now, and it restarted my day. Feeling more flexible and strong since day 1
Im finding motivation for daily tasks and life a struggle very regularly at the moment but managing to show up everyday for this , this will be my 4th year of 30 days and i know i love it. There is also such love in this community i truly feel part of a yoga family. I have a day off to day stared with sending the kids off to school then yoga , i feel much more awake and motivated so will make the most of it and go for a short walk and have a bath . You are all worthy of self love . Im truly greatful for this channel the 30 day series and the community here ❤❤
Thank you for sharing! YWA had a big, huge impact on my mental health and motivation throughout the day.
You got this❤
Lovely! Thank you. ❤ During knocking on heaven’s gate, Benji left the view of the camera. My screen is on the wall next to a door. My pup, Billie, walked to the other side of the wall through the door to look for Benji!
There is something rather lovely about the daily email message and the sweet daily practices. So cute to see Adriene and Benji interacting. Another great practice, thank you. Have a beautiful day everyone 🤗💞💖💞
Beautiful day to you as well!
Day 9, gets tougher but more interesting. Reading all the comments I feel like I’m connected to you all so something feels missing if I don’t show up for the practice. Even though I am doing this 5 months later haha. Thank you A and B. A lot of unnecessary thoughts have been released from mind after today’s practice. ❤
Good morning everyone from Manchester, UK. Yoga in pyjamas today for me. Wishing everyone here a good day 🙏🏽
Hey, I decided to skip the practice today because I was too sore. But came here anyway. So so so proud of myself for being here and completing the practice. Love you Adriene ❤
Thank You, Adriene.❤ I've been feeling very angry and sad lately, and, although doing yoga can't solve all my problems, it seems like life guided me to a practice that I honestly needed very much. I enjoyed today's session, it was a good experience. Have a great day, everyone! Namasté.🙏
I hope slowly, but surely, life brings you more light. Hopefully, things will get easier.
@@uiaraala Thank you for your kind words. Have a great day!🤗
I know the feeling. You are not alone and it will be okay. ❤
Yay! I already felt a lot stronger today than on day 1😄 let’s keep this going everyone!💞
same here!!
Thanks!
I did mot want to get to the mat today, but I did it. That’s the power of yoga. Showing up was most of the battle for me. Proud of everyone who showed up!
Ngl but this was by far the hardest day for me but I am proud of where I am and that I am here!!🙌
The BEST day of yoga flow so far!
Adriene is so much more relaxed in this episode, singing and making jokes and keeping it fun. Love it! 🙏
Absolutely, I felt it. She is at the peak of her powers and we are privileged to experience it in real time! The joy shone through. 🎉Namaste 🙏🏽
skipped a few down ward dogs today to honor the bod but def devoted to seeing this through to day 30! thankful to have the practice & smiling reading comments :)
💜🙏🏼
20 min are really just the perfect duration for such a challenge. It is neither too short like 10 min, where you have to stop when you warmed-up, nor is it too long for procrastination to kick in.
As I am currently doing the challenge on top of my regular workout schedule (all group fitness courses), I was really glad about the relaxed session yesterday. Tuesday is one of my harder days and as I feel like I had a breakthrough with my body awareness last year, I moved with a lot of intention through yesterdays flexibar and deepWork workouts. My muscles got the message that they need to grow to support me so today was accompanied by muscle pain. Good thing today was about release! :D And that I learned through yoga to notice and accept how my body feels.
Thanks for the workout, Adrienne! ❤
I got all ready to follow the class this morning. Only to find that that our internet disappeared after the first minute. So all I had was RELEASE !? Walked away after my improvised class happy to have had just that! Such much we absorb and expect from ourselves and others and so necessary to release and slow down and focus on what really matters😊
I really wasn't feeling it today but I told myself that 'the hardest part is showing up' and I showed up. Turns out it was actually one of the BEST yoga session's I have had EVER! I felt so balanced and centred and really tapped into my inner (and outer) smile. Thank you Adriene! And to all that are here, regardless if you've missed some days or not done as well as you think you should have, WE'RE DOING IT!!!! WE CAN DO IT!!! So much love to you all. Namaste
The days I don’t want to show up are most often the days I need it most. Well done!
I have had the flu so I am a week behind! What a wonderful reminder to "release" the expectation of being "on time" with the practice. I plan on doing 2 per day until I get caught back up.
I unexpectedly found myself sobbing during the knocking on heaven's door! I think I've been being very hard on myself recently, and that bit truly felt like a release from it all. I'm feeling called to do a lot less judging of myself, and be a lot kinder. Sending the same hopes to everyone else as well ♥
This practice today felt so wholesome! I enjoyed and cherished every moment of it!
I’m slowly learning to be in the moment.
The ending part where I was wildly waving my arms around for no reason other than for the fun of it, made me feel reconnected to my inner child!
I love to do this with my earbuds in and I LOVE when I can hear Adriene’s heart beating!!! I can often hear my own as well. Reminds me that we’re here together living a life where we are so lucky to do it together🤍✨
"Come out of it. Laugh. Fart. Chuckle."😊
Best practice yet. 🙏🏻
Thank you.
THIS explains my 'gaseous issue' today 😆
Hah! YES, I loved that moment.
hah! I thought I heard her wrong, lol
Revisited this one today on a whim as part of my daily practice and it felt AMAZING, especially coming back from a respiratory ick. I did her "sick person yoga" ones the last couple days so today I felt the need to "release" illness. Perfect!
I know I'm way behind in the yoga journey, but it's been so helpful to get back into yoga again with the 30-day flow. Thank you, Adrienne, for the reminder to let go of our expectations and to just keep trying. ❤️
the ending when we let loose was amazing. like a complete mood boost after a long day before bed
Love me a little knocking on heaven's door, it always brings a smile to my face. Thank you for this lovely flow today!
This was so perfect for me today. I’m struggling to accept that my breastfeeding journey with my baby is over. Shed some tears with “release that which is no longer serving”. And I love that Adriene didn’t say “serving YOU”. It’s not serving us anymore. Took deep breaths, enjoyed knocking on heaven’s door to release it, and felt grateful for all these months breastfeeding. Deep breaths for new phases and new beginnings
Day 9, woooo! I felt a little resistance to show up today, but so glad I did. I always feel so connected and proud of myself when I do. 🌸
Thanks and lots of love to all practicing people, Adriene and sweet Benji ❤❤❤Namaste 🙏
Releasing what does not serve me today. Much needed and timely. Sending gratitude to all on this journey.
Thanks to this 30 day yoga the more i stick with it the more i feel the peace in my mind and my heart i have Post partum depression and this really helps me so much.
Thankyou ❤❤❤
I hope u are feeling better❤
Day 9, February 2nd. Feels smother and stronger with each practice. Love the atmosphere and joy I get with you. Thank you, Adriene and Benji ❤! Lots of love ❤️ Namaste 🙏
Thank you thank you! Practicing here on a sailboat which affords a beautiful view but not a very stable surface. So had to just laugh and go with it in the balance moves. Love to you all around the world! Thanks for another great year of yoga and community.
Knocking on heaven's door made me so happy, I smiled. In the midst of an exiatential crisis and a lot of crying, I smiled and laughed at myself 😂 Namaste ❤
Anyone else get distracted by the giant bird flying round outside? Benji knows!! ❤ thank you Adriene and team, love this journey xx
yep!!!the bird was incredible huge!
i did that with 6259 people this morning! i haven't gotten up this early in a long time (6am) and the reason for that is i have a diploma exam in a few hours. my body was nervous before this, due to nightmares about the exam, and i noticed that. there's a tiny bit of nerves left but i feel centred. before and during my yoga i found happiness in the small moments, and those are the moments that truly matter to me. i looked outside at the darkness and realized "huh, i think i like being up this early" i saw the snow hugging the trees and land outside and i felt a childlike joy. during my downward dog i suddenly felt this joy toward a lamp in the corner of the room. it may sound silly to some but seeing that warm light made me feel cozy inside and i felt so happy to have that. i chose to release control, and expectations of how well i will 'perform' on my exam. any result is okay, all that matters is that i showed up to that exam and tried my very best. i can be a perfectionist, and so usually during exams i would push myself too hard to perfect everything, and i'm going to notice that today and try to keep my time as mindful as possible there. i know i will be okay, like always, despite some discomfort, and i'm looking forward to going for a walk afterwards in the trails in the forest with my mom. good luck future me! and thank you so much for this practice, and if you've read this far thank you for doing this for yourself
One of the best practices ever!
Happy to be here thank you
Here on Day 9 a few weeks late, but grateful to be here!
I feel so proud of myself for practicing 9 days straight 💛😚🎉 I really feel strong 💪 I hope you guys feel the same way about yourselves ❤
I’ve done 9 days straight for the first time.
@@kcbramer1560 wow, that’s so cool 😎 💛
Yesss!
I've been following this challenge slowly to get used to incorporating yoga into my daily routine without straining myself (three days a week to start!) and I can't thank you enough for these videos! due to my ADHD, OCD and anxiety, I really struggle with grounding myself and often get stuck in my head (I used to dissociate frequently) but doing this practice has helped me a lot. just yesterday I was feeling so overwhelmed but being able to release it here this morning has made me feel so much better already. plus I noticed my balance has improved 👀 now whenever I have to reach for a glass in the cupboard or something like that I do a little leg stretch like the lunges we do here just for fun 😂 it feels great to be more aware of my body and more present. everyone is going through something or has some hardship in life and I'm really grateful to have a space to just let that go and feel connected with myself and anyone else who's following along. you're doing wonders adriene, thank you so much 🙏
🌞Day 9🌞 This practice felt so good and all the tension in my body has really been released. I really enjoy the premiere and practice every day at the same time with so many of you. It helps to start the day right and keep myself accountable to show up. Thank you and see you tomorrow! :)
Was feeling stressed. This helped me release the tension. 🙏
Thank you Adriene, and all of you putting out tranquility into the world, have a wonderful day, namaste🙏🏻🧘🏻♀️🦽
Greatly put, I feel so much calmer and peaceful after this! Hope you have a wonderful day, too 💌
Loving every day of this! As usual, Adriene, you know just what I need!❤❤
I tumbled out of bed and stumbled to the yoga mat,
Felt my back twinge and wondered ‘what’s up with that?”…..
literally. Back sore to start but soon felt better. First time I’ve got here for the start at 6am. Routines are changing because this matters. Thank you 🙏
hi, is it 6am uk time that everyone is practising together? i hadn't realised there was a time.. thanks
@@julestempleton6947 yes it is UK time….. it goes live before that for the chat and then starts at 6 🙏
@@ChrisJames-p7x thank you for the explanation. not sure how i missed that! :)
@@ChrisJames-p7x Oh it is really live? I didn't realize. That's midnight here on the east coast of the US, so I can't attend anyway, but good to know. It may be about 9pm where Adriene is, so that makes sense. I'm still loving it, though! Namaste.
@@fairisfairyessiree4771 it isn’t live but the video goes live!
Balance is surely something to improve on for me! Feels good to have company!
Two of my favorite phrases came up today. The imaginary pond and know king on heaven’s doors. Loved today’s practice. Namaste!
It's the 6th year my friend and I have dedicated ourselves to doing the 30 days in 30 days. Thanks for doing these, from Thailand.
Wow! We're already at day 9! Can you believe it? ❤ to all!
Still on schedule! 🎉 See you tomorrow!
Really enjoyed today, I've been loving all of them, I find you very easy to follow, I can have my eyes closed and mostly just follow your voice. Thank you, namaste 🙏
this is the longest i’ve stuck to moving my body with intention in a long time. my body feels wonderful after each session and i definitely have a sense of accomplishment. i’ve also noticed that i’ve been using our breathing tactics throughout the day and it seems to help me some with my anxiety and feeling overwhelmed. i’m really enjoying this practice. thank you ❤❤❤
Loved this! I really need to get back to making this a priority every day no matter what else is going on!
I'm doing this practice on the 29th of January, very much feeling behind and before starting today I even wondered if it was even worth it, as the month is coming to an end. For me, this has definitely been a month of trasformation. I began this yoga journey, as I do every year, in holiday mode and in lovely Paris. On the 8th of January I moved out of my parents home to start my new life in Turin, Italy. I felt so weird and agitated in the new house and I didn't feel 'safe' enough to let go and practice for even 20 minutes. I'm now slowly settling into my new life and organically feeling the need to get on the mat again, so right now I just feel immensely grateful for the comfort and the alignment I can always find in these yoga practices! It feels like coming home to myself! From now on, whenever I feel like doing some yoga I will just do it. I guess I could say, today I released the guilt of not following this with the utmost consistency!
It's been a month since my day 8, but I'm here again.🔥
My love from Egypt. 🇪🇬🇵🇸
الكل يحسن البدء فى الاشياء، لكن قليل جدا من يحسن الانتهاء منها.
life is so wonderful when Adriene is in it
I am in love with the saying “Release what no longer serves.” A gentle reminder!!! 🧘♂️ 💜 🙏
this was just what i needed today. i was having a terrible day until i came to the mat and fully engaged in the practice, releasing the thoughts that were weighing down on me. thank you Adriene, for these mindful yet lighthearted practices.
Thank you Adriene! Did anyone else end crying with this one? When you said, "good work today" I let it all go.
Day 9 , and I had the most challanging practice so far. My thoughts were not kind to me today and they kept coming at me like arrows in every posture. But that is okay. See you all tomorrow, and almost 1/3 done already!
Thank you for sharing. Not all days are easy. Namaste 🙏🏽
Thank you for your kind words. Hope the sun shines on you today :) @@paulmclaughlin6068
Totally understand that feeling. My mind was also being very judgemental of my abilities today. Just gotta forgive ourselves and recognize the work we are putting in. ❤️❤️
I felt the same way today and was giving myself a hard time bc it didn't flow at all, thanks so much for sharing your experience! it reminded me that its okay :)
Same!!! My one legged poses were not flowy but I reminded myself this is practice not a performance!
We got a knocking on heavens door!!! Wooooo 🎉
I started feeling guilty for being “behind” but I had the worst day at work at a new job, left early and could not stop my mind racing, tried calling friends, taking a bath etc. I needed to let it go!! This yoga practice came in EXACTLY when I needed it. I will never again doubt giving myself grace. Thank you so so much ❤
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
After a week of back pain and muscle aches, todays practice felt so good and strong! I’m sad that I’ve fallen behind, but excited to continue my journey!
Keep going, dear YWA family. I'm not behind schedule, I'm in my own pace.
Did not get to this one until today. Thank you Adriene for a fun practice. Glad to have some balancing poses. That's an area this old lady needs to work on.😊🙏
Day nine!
Thank you Adriene, Benji, and the YWA for a much needed practice! I appreciate these videos and this channel so, so much 🥰
To everyone practising, thank you for being here, and taking time for yourself! We're doing it; you've got this! I will see you tomorrow!
🤍🌱🤍
