    Started doing this routine 8 days ago, with an aim to doing some stretching every day , I’m usually really bad at continuing things for more than a couple of days, but right now I need to really start working on my physical strength and mobility. I’ve done it every morning now for 8 days! Doesn’t sound like much , but it’s a huge start for me.
    I turn 60 this year and really do need to get myself in shape physically and mentally. This routine has been great! I’ve felt really good this last week, and am already noticing a difference in my mobility.
    It must be due to doing this each morning, and the bonus is I’m actually enjoying it. 👍🏻🎉.
    Had my bloods done a couple of weeks ago and I am in the pre diabetes category 😢 so I definitely need to start taking care of my overall health.
    Kicking the sugar is the next big challenge ❌🍪🍫🍰🥺😢

    Hey! I really enjoyed the exercises in this video-thank you for that! I do have a small suggestion, though. Typically, I use stretching sessions as a way to quiet my mind. While I appreciate the effort to engage with encouraging words, I find that less talking helps me focus and relax more effectively during these exercises. Perhaps others might feel the same. Thanks for considering this feedback!

    I have depression and deal with a lot of anxiety issues.
    When I have panic attacks, I can faint, convulse or become paralyzed, with stiff muscles and unable to speak. It caused me a lot of emotional and physical pain.
    I was always afraid of the gym environment and I find it difficult to leave the house. I put college on hold and only go out to see a psychologist.
    This stretching calmed me down at the beginning of a crisis. It soothed me so much that I almost fell asleep.
    Controlling my breathing and movements, I forgot about fear.
    Thank you very much.

    It's been a while, probably a year or more. Great short stretch routine to get me back into it again. 50 this year and I definitely need to work on my flexibility. Thank you.
