What kind of wonderful magic is this? I have chronic pain down my entire spine and yoga makes it just bearable. But I've been doing these twice a day for three days now and for the first time since 2016 I'm pain free throughout most of the day! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!
Wow! That is amazing! I am so glad this practice is so helpful to you. ❤️
So happy to read it 🥹
I've been the same, so it's great to hear its helped. I'll give it a go x
I don't hear any music? Am I missing something?
I couldn’t agree more. I am amazed at the results, after only 2 days
Just completed this practice out in my garden. It’s 33 here in the UK today 🙏🧘🏻♀️🪷💕🥵😊
I started 21 day challenge yesterday and today I woke up at 10.30 I was at guilt at the starting of a new day itself but anyhow I decided to do something for my body atleast, I already have decided to gave 1 day to somatic excercise so I just finished and you wanna know the instant result I am free of that guilt I woke up with yes it worked that instantly for me I know lot of factor are responsible for this but I'd give this somatic video the major credit Lauren, I chose to forgive myself today and start the day with positive mindset and being kind to my self Thankyou so much ❤
I was curious about somatic workouts after seeing a bunch of ads on IG. So I did a search here and found your page. That was seriously a very relaxing way to start my day. I felt tension leave my body, my back feels more relaxed. Definitely working this into my morning routine. Thank you!
Awesome! Thank you!
I have been dealing with panic attacks for the past few months with my body in constant flight or fight. I couldn't believe the overwhelming calmness that I felt when I first watched this video. It was like a breath of fresh air after constant suffering 😢. I am now doing these exercises daily to help regulate my nervous system. Thank you so much, and please keep making videos.
Thank you for sharing your experience. More to come!
This is seriously magic I could 😢cry from the relief I feel nobody should live in pain every day I'm so happy I found your channel. If you don't believe just try it ! ❤
Thank you for your positive feedback!
I’m not going to lie, I didn’t think this would help my lower back and hip pain, that I have due to a birth defect. But after the last exercise am now a believer. Thank you!
Thanks for sharing!
I have a birth defect also, hip dysplasia. I hope this can help me too
Let us know if its helping ?
Thank you for sharing
As someone who has chronic pain and stiffness i struggle with lots of yoga poses but THIS IS MAGIC and I can immediately feel my body relax into the floor and pain minimise. Thank you so so much!
You're so welcome! ❤️❤️❤️
She explains so calmly that I felt at ease too. I am scared of yoga for the reasons you mentioned.
Thank you, I used to do yoga regularly but have had severe illness so it’s been years, I started 3 days ago and it feels so good to do the gentle exercises here, today it felt easier but I kept getting very emotional- I didn’t expect something so gentle to have that effect but I am grateful, I feel like doing this daily will help with my healing 🙏
Thank you for sharing your experience. I hope my classes help you along your journey!
I understand that's part of it is to release our emotions
I have lived with chronic pain for the past 9 years. I am 24 years old with 3 prolapsed discs associated with neural impingement, compression and lateral recess stenosis. Since the new year I have been in so much pain. I avoid anything that could possibly help my back in fear it will cause more pain. When I came across this video it was the only one I’ve found that looked gentle enough to do and not super strenuous. I just completed the video and I seriously am at a loss for words. My pain has eased dramatically and although it’s still present I feel like it will be manageable today. Thank you so much.🙏🏼❤️
Is there any science behind what these exercises do? I just can’t believe it!
I am so glad you found this class helpful. Yes, there is! I am actually working on creating a free Ebook on it as I type this!
I'm so happy for you! How's it going now after 3 months?
I was wondering if I could do this because of L4/L5 disc bulge and S1/S2 stenosis,I am glad I found your comment 😊
Thank you for this. It was my first time. My body feels relaxed. I feel calm. A bit of crying at the end. I’ll definitely continue with this.❤
Im glad you found this class relaxing. The emotional release is sometimes necessary. :)
I can't BELIEVE how well this worked?! I have scoliosis and severe muscle tension due to PTSD, and on a whim tried this before reaching for a painkiller. Don't need one now..! Magic!!
Thank you for sharing your experience!
This was an amazing way to kick off the first morning of the year. Thank you!!
Glad you enjoyed it! Happy New Year!
Wow! This went by faster than I thought! I've been going through a tough week and deal with chronic back pain. I cried a little bit at the end but felt so much more ready to face the day. I'm definitely going to be implementing this in my morning routine from now on!
Aww. I am so glad you found this practice so therapeutic.
Honestly, this is the first exercise I've done that I wasn't thinking the whole time when is it finished? I didn't even notice that I was doing this for fifteen minutes. Also I noticed straight away that I was storing lots of emotions on my back, my hips and my stomach. Also a bit on my thighs it was so satisfying to release all that and even my neck felt looser I am so grateful for this exercise and I'm glad I found you.
Thank you for sharing your experience. I'm glad you found it to be a positive one. 😊
Honestly, thank you so much, this is a game changer. I can feel the differences from the start to finish!!! 😍😍 Thank you for allowing me to start my somatic journey!
You're so welcome!
Wonderful. This and EFT with Nick Otner’s anxiety release tapping has me feeling ready for the day with delight & happiness within. Namaste! ❤
I'm so glad! Have a great day!
Eft tapping brad yates is amazing too
Omg...i randomly stumbled across somatic exercises and thought id give it a try. This was my first exercise with it ever...and OMG...i can feel the difference right away with just this one workout!!!! U have a new fan ❤❤❤
Wonderful!
I came across this video a few weeks ago and am amazed at how these few stretches seem to reset my back for the day. When lying on my back I get pain when bringing my feet flat to the floor. After the first stretch I am able to do it with no problem. Totally amazed by this. I must say your voice and tone and everything about this video I love. thank you.
My sister and I tried this a few days ago. I have cronic pain from I don't know when. This has really helped. I did have to get used to the changes in the way I move, but it has been so worth it.
Thank you for sharing your experience. I am glad you found this class helpful.
Who knew such simple exercises would make such a difference immediately? Love this, love the instant effect. Will be incorporating this into my morning routine. Thank you!
I couldn't agree more! Thanks for sharing. :)
I appreciate the detailed guidance, helping me scan, take notice of my body, pressures, position. Perimenopausal, trauma, and Lyme disease residuals here… this 15 minutes was a real game changer! I will be incorporating this into my routine! Thank you so much!
This truly has been a game changer! Releasing the pain from my spine in a way nothing else has helped! You’re magical, I’m so happy I found your channel! I’ve been doing this for about a month, since my back injury, and I’ve noticed huge improvements in my mobility. I’m coming back to myself, thanks in part to your videos.
I am so glad to hear that. Check out my other somatic videos: ruclips.net/video/gHFVNuCbzGI/видео.html
Tried this once and i will definitely do it again. Everything you described to happen after the somatic yoga was how i felt. 100% effective 🙌
Wonderful!
I have chronic pain in my neck, shoulder and low back after having had waiver concussions… I started this routine lying on the floor feeling all of the hurts…at the end of it, it was just my shoulder that was sore - all other pain gone! This is an amazing way to heal - thank you ❤
Thank you for sharing your experience.
I was able to release so much what my body was holding on to 😍 thank you ⚘️
You're so welcome!
This was a great way to start my self care day! It's been a long rough week and today is all about restorative movements and actions. 🎉❤🎉
Yay to self-care. I'm glad I could help you in your yoga and wellness journey.
I’ve been suffering with a headache on my left side for 3 days. This 10min exercise made me feel SO much better and my headache is gone. 😯 Thank you Lauren for sharing!
Thank you for sharing your experience. I am glad you found my class helpful!
This was so helpful. I am a longtime yoga practitioner who is now dealing with inflammation in my joints and muscles. I am currently being worked up for myositis vs. fibromyalgia. These gentle and simple exercises were not too much for me to manage, even though many things are, and I felt a real difference after this short sequence. Thank you, Ikeda!
Thank you for sharing your experience!
Thank you for sharing this practice with the RUclips community. It was very powerful in connecting to and observing my body. Much gratitude🙏🏼
You're so welcome!
This was amazing! My back and body overall felt very relaxed, compared to before I started the workout. I also got quite sleepy after it. I’m not sure why 😂❤
Incredible! I found the video after seeing a lot about somatic workouts and wanted to try what all the fuss was about. This is my second morning doing this and I’m so in love! I followed it both times with pigeon on both sides to give my hips one final opener and this is EXACTLY what my body needed to start the day! Thank you!!!
Ohh! Love a good pigeon stretch. Glad to you find my classes helpful. ❤️
This is so well explained that I could actually follow without looking at the screen. No music is a plus, as well as speaking at the just the right pace. Very gentle way to wake the body up.
Thank you for your feedback!
First time doing somatic exercises and I really felt a much needed release! At the start my spine was more arched but was more flat by the end of the exercise, same with my knees. Thank you ❤
So glad you felt a difference!
Committed to doing the video before the end of the day. Goal is every day, again, thank you. Im proud of myself and happy I found your channel.
Great job!
I looked this up on YT and found you. I was too curious about somatic yoga as I already practice yoga.. but this is different. I tried it right away and makes me feel ssuupppeerrr relaxed. I felt I was completely flat on the floor compared to when I started. This is now part of my morning routine 💖
Wonderful!
I'm starting this tomorrow morning for emotional reasons and physical reasons. Hoping this helps with my nervous system dysregulation. I'm certain it will. ❤
I hope this practice helps you as well!
It was my first day .. I am feeling better in my body and more present thanks for these 3 quick exercises . I usually get up in the morning with overwhelming thoughts or chatter but this exercise helped me get more connected to my body and tuning in than outside thanks a lot
Wonderful!
Thank you for this wonderful practice. I’ve been struggling with my mental health and have decided I need to reconnect with myself and be present in the moment.
This video was so easy to follow and I was really able to feel connect with my body
Thank you for your positive feedback. I hope my channel and videos continue to be a great resource for you. Are there any types of classes or videos you would like more of?
I have been starting to do this every morning. I look forward to it and I typically run from movement due to pain. Thank you and Happy New Year.
Im so glad. Keep it up! ❤️
First time doing somatic yoga and omg thank god!!! Feel better after just one time!! I’m totally hooked!!!! I can’t say thank u enough!!!!❤❤❤

Omg just from the first time trying this I allready feel so much better .I teared up in one eye 😢and I don't know why.
Thank you for sharing your experience!
Wow wow wow 🎉something so simple released my stress. When I scanned initially my hips were so tight and the rounded part at top of middle back aches. After - it’s as if I was melting into the carpet. Wow!
Wonderful! Thank you for sharing your experience.
Instant relief! Wow, been suffering by my bra line for years and this makes it bearable 😊
Im glad you found my class helpful!

Amazing!
I just followed along the video and never felt this relaxed in my entire life. I felt so happy and warm. Thank You for this video 🥰
You're so welcome!
Looking forward to trying this in addition to what's currently in rotation. I have chronic pain and really intense pelvic pain and my hips scream at me daily.
I hope this alleviates your aches and pains.
Great work out... Thank you! Starting somatic yoga for my chronic pain!
Loved this and I have done this every morning for a week and you please make more somatic stretch videos like this!
More to come!
Thank you, your video helped me a lot today. Will use this everyday ❤
Thank you for sharing your experience and your donation! :)
Wow! Instant relief. I was struck by a car last October and my body just has not been the same since. Thank you for sharing ❤
Oh wow! I am glad you are okay considering. Stay safe and hope this practice and my channel continue to help you on your journey!
Thank you for your guidance I really feel so good after practicing. ❤ you have halped me make a big difference in my morning 🙏.
Thank you for checking out this video and I am glad it made a positive impact on your morning!
It didn’t seem like this would do anything, but I feel amazing! I’m so used to the idea that excise needs to be hard to work
Yes, most people feel that way. I definitely used to, but i've learned the value of working smarter vs harder. :)
New to somatic exercise and loving it!The whole concept and what it does to my body and mind 🙏I definitely feel my body to be more relaxed after your exercises,my muscles as well and I feel more space in the pelvic area 🙏 I will be coming back 🪷😘Thank you 🙏
Thank you for sharing your experience! 😊
This worked! My feet started outwards and at end, they were straight up 😮❤
I'm glad you found this class helpful!
This is a wonderful morning routine.
Glad you think so!
New here and will start trying this daily. Thank you ❤
What an angel :)
Thank you for making available.
I will do more times.
Felt my right side way heavier than my left at the beginning, it was lighter at
the end, but still heavier.
I had a car hitting mine at my right side and had 2
surgeries on r hip and r shoulder a few years back.
I see chiropractor to adjust my right hip a few times a year/
Reply:
Thank you so much for your kind words! 🌟 I'm glad you found this class helpful. It's not uncommon to experience imbalances, especially after surgeries and incidents like the car collision you mentioned.
Hi, this is beautiful and peaceful feeling. First time doing somatic yoga. Thank SO MUCH. Looking forward for more of your sessions please! ❤🧘🏼♀️
You're so welcome!
Thank you so much ! It does feel good and I feel open and better ❤my new daily routine
Wonderful!
Loved this! Thankyou so much, i came across somatic exercises on Instagram and found you, will definitely be coming back for more 😊 x
You're so welcome!
Thank you so much. Before I started my head and lower back was hurting so bad now the pain isn’t as intense.
I'm so glad my class was helpful. I hope my other videos are just as helpful for you in your yoga journey.
Just the routine I needed this morning
I'm glad you enjoyed it!
This is amazing. Just what i needed to get back into moving my body. ❤
Thanks for practicing with me.
It's nice to see the comments where people are getting results from this. It does make me a little sad however that the video such as this is getting such popularity when it is barely scratching the surface of the potential of somatics. This video is unfortunately missing key principles that will take you much further. I encourage folks to check out videos that are by reputable Feldenkreis or Hannah Somatic practitioners. Eric Cooper is a great example.
Did it once and could feel the difference already.
I'm glad you found this class helpful!
Thank you! Really enjoyed this and plan to make it a regular practice. ❤❤
I'm so glad you enjoyed it. More somatic content to come. I just released my somatic evening routine as well. Give that one a try and let me know what you think. :)
Thank you for this video!! My body feels much more relaxed ❤
You're so welcome! I’m glad you found this class helpful! More to come!
❤ thank you so much for this ❤ Happy New Year 🎉
Thank you for watching! Happy new year!!
Sciatic pain has me in fear of trying this. I so want to try it. I hope I try it before the video ends
I hope this class helps you with your sciatic pain!
This is incredible, I appreciate you!
Glad you enjoyed it!

Thank you so much for this! ❤ my lower back feels so relaxed 🎉
I'm so glad! 😊
I'll see what I can do,I have layers of injuries and scoliosis pretty bad,but I've made adjustments back when I did yoga...
I hope this practice is gentle and slow enough for your practice. 🙏
Wow this felt amazing
I am glad you found this class helpful!
