I just did 5 hrs of yard work and my lower back was yelling at me. Now, I do yoga every single day with Brett but I was really afraid I wouldn't be able to get outta bed in the morning. I just did this simple short practice and it feels sooooo much better. THANK YOU. Amazing
My daughter told me about this fantastic yoga teacher that she listens to and practices with regularly. after a long flight and not able to get out to my regular yoga class because of a ice storm, I used the yoga for lower back pain and it was fantastic. thank you so much.
Wonderful stretches, these have really helped my chronic back pain, (20 years) the pain has shifted since I have been doing these excercises to a different area, and now it is less severe, and feels on the mend. I highly recommend.
+colleen newhouse Hooray, thanks for practicing with me!! I have a whole low back pain playlist of videos ruclips.net/p/PLPJTnhnYa-pMtBbmvqZls4JC-8TNksHl1 xoxo
This has been perfect for me, I woke up this morning with a more than usual pain in my back which made it uncomfortable to sit at work, and this helped immensely. Thank you!
Matt Jensen so glad to hear it -- thanks for the feedback. Lots more videos on my channel - I even have a low back pain playlist :) I'm a sufferer too :)
My back has been sore from running, and I only had time for something quick today! Feeling better in only 15 minutes! Stretching is simple and relaxing! Will have to check out the longer videos when I have more time. :) ♡
i absolutely love you as a yoga instructor I've watched many you explain it so well. i know when I'm doing something wrong because you'll say it feels like this or like that so if it doesn't.. i know I'm doing it wrong. I've had lower back pain for a couple years now.. and I'm young! just a mix of stopping sports after high school and all that jazz.. i did this routine the other day i felt some ache just positions my body hadn't been in for awhile,, and right when i laid down i felt the best pop of my life! a pop I've been needing for a long time!! now idk if that was suppose to happen but I've been feeling great ever since. thank you dear
I'm so happy to have found this one! I have never done these stretches in any class, even when asked what I wanted to work on. I'll do these after my 15 minute morning warm up each morning. Thank you!
+Laura Wolfrom yay! Yeah, I invented a lot of these out of working with my own weird low back pain. I'm so glad you like them too. Thanks for the comment xoxo :)
Nice! For those with low back issues, that rolling up from a forward fold can make back issues WORSE unless you really learn to press your feet into the floor and use your thighs to push you up instead of pulling up with the low back... People with weak thighs will put more and more pressure on their low back, making back worse. Thighs get weaker and weaker, putting more pressure on back and it is a vicious cycle. MUST use thighs in going from forward fold to upright!
Wow! I had no idea how tense my back was! Just tucking chin into chest sent a crazy intense stretch down both sides of my backbone! I couldn't even fold! I think my bad breastfeeding posture is to blame. Thank you Brett for your classes! I can practice yoga in the quiet of the early morning while my children are still sleeping. No gym necessary! You're the "greatist!"
Perfect day for this video, I was having some low back issues today. Very happy that I did this tonight, my low back is feeling relaxed and open. I love the background of the video, it is beautiful.
Barry Gleissner Thanks!!! So glad it helped and thanks for the comment. The background is my mom's garden. She's been working really hard on it so will be thrilled when I show her your comment :) OMMM
Wow! I've never been flexible and haven't tried yoga before but these exercises are awesome! I was amazed I could actually do them at all and stretching my back made a huge difference in my pain level. Thank you!
nz5041 so glad! yes, focusing on some beginning stuff for awhile, but fear not, I have some advanced stuff coming in the pipeline too. Remember to send any requests my way!!! xo :)
This short practice amazingly relaxed my back. I woke up this morning with my lower left back tweaking and I know this is the start of when my back use to go out. Since doing yoga pretty much daily with you I have not had that issue but I sat at a sewing machine for several hours yesterday and I think that is what got it going. I feel much more flexible without the tweak after doing this practice. I will come back to this anytime I have lower back issues. Thank you Brett you are my go to girl. Namaste!
Great routine I had back surgery several years ago and work all day long at my computer. I'm so Glad I found your teachings Bret! They're all great. I especially like this one, because I need to keep my back stretched on a regular basis, to keep the nerves from over reacting and tensing down my sciatic.
+BrettLarkinYoga would you be interested or able to give some content to our website amplifeied.com? We're a social media site for chiropractors but are trying to branch out to all sorts of alternative health professionals. Even one blog post a week would be great. Let me know if your interested. I certainly will join you again. I've made this routine part of my practice all week! xoxo back at ya
Thank you Brett!!!! Feeling much better after a hard workout today! IT is so important to be gentle and surrender as you do in this video! Kuddos~!!!!!!!
You are a great instructor. Easy to listen to and clear directives. I enjoy your routines. However, I threw my back out last week and was looking to loosen it up. I couldn't do these stretches... too painful.
I've added this to my routine as of today :) I am doing your 15 mins morning sequence now this :) awesome. Thank you for taking the time to share these with us xx
+sarah seidler thanks so much for the guidance, thrilled you liked it. Lots more back pain videos on my low back pain playlist ruclips.net/p/PLPJTnhnYa-pMtBbmvqZls4JC-8TNksHl1
"Oh wow, I followed along with your video and my low back ache is gone! Amazing!" hahaha Well, isn't that what it's SUPPOSED to do?!!? Very nice, thank you! New subscriber!

This may be the most delicious treat for my body that I have given it in a loooooonnnnnnngggggg time✨ And I practice yoga daily and eat Nadamoo😆 There are not enough thank yous for this gift💗 From my soul to yours💖
OMG...just OMG...my back thanks you, this is a perfect way to start my a.m yoga practice now that I can not focus on all the tightness I've been holding.Namaste Brett 💖
Fabulous! I’m not sure exactly sure why my back is tight and painful just now, but I am sure this helps a lot... so I will be doing this... a lot. Thank you for this Brett❣️🎁💖🌈
1:11 love this low back stretch, I have a question, the rocking from side to side makes me a little nervous as my back is a little tender and easily. can go out. Should I just keep it stationary then until my back strengthens?
Great, Brett! Thank you. I do yoga practise every day and am experiencing burning sensations in the side and front of my calves. Do you think this could be because my legs are getting used to the stretches? Thank you.
BrettLarkinYoga : Yes I just did that video. You have mentioned not to do forward bending for Sciatica but the lowerback exercises are mostly forward bending .. confused!!
freezemathu The low back pain videos are for general back pain. Most people just have a tight low back, so forward bending and stretching is good. But if you have a doctor diagnosed slipped disc (aka official sciatica) the forward folding can be dangerous, esp if the injury is new. Basically, low back pain videos are for generic low back. People who have a herniated disc should do the sciatica specific video...you can read this article for more info: www.yogajournal.com/article/teach/protect-the-disks-in-forward-bends-and-twists/ Hope this helps! Good luck & do whatever feels best for your body!
This has some helped deal with some pain I've been having until I can get to physio, but when doing the seated forward fold with my left foot against my right thigh, I feel pain in my right side (waist). Any idea what could be causing that? It doesn't happen for the other side.
Melissa Castle If the pain is manageable I would stay with it as this is likely very bound/tight fascia on your right side waist that needs to unwind. When I do these poses a lot of what I am feeling is in my side waist areas as well. Try to have patience and not go to far forward that the pain becomes overwhelming -- stay in a spot where you can breathe into it. Propping a lot of pillows under your torso / head might help! You can also try taking your left foot less high up on the thigh (like closer to the knee or calf) for a more modified version. keep me posted! xo
BrettLarkinYoga Thanks! I'll give those tips a try. I've been doing this routine every day since I've found the video and I think it's been a great help. Looking forward to trying more of your yoga sequences when my back is better.

Thank you!!!

Very nice 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

That was great
Thank you
Great, Brett! Thank you. I do yoga practise every day and am experiencing burning sensations in the side and front of my calves. Do you think this could be because my legs are getting used to the stretches? Thank you.
Brett, I have sciatica and low back pain. Can I do these yoga moves for relief ?
freezemathu do my "yoga for sciatica" video specifically !! www.brettlarkin.com/project/yoga-for-sciatica-low-back-pain-15-min/ xoxo

This was actually pretty helpful. I did get a little stir crazy during the second pose, but I am really bad at sitting still. Haha
razzledazzlem21 it's really hard to be still this long...I get the same way. But it's soooo good for you. Good for you for powering through :)
This has some helped deal with some pain I've been having until I can get to physio, but when doing the seated forward fold with my left foot against my right thigh, I feel pain in my right side (waist). Any idea what could be causing that? It doesn't happen for the other side.

is this supposed to be painful?
+Diddy Boiii NO! Stretching sensation is OK but sharp shooting pain is not OK and definitely back off xoxo
thanks :D
