Remember that when you are practicing at home, there is someone practicing along with you - either at home or in Austin, Texas. Where are you practicing today?
I don't know if anyone will ever see this, but when Adriene asked "What happens when you get surprised by something you don't want to do? How do you react?" I realized that it makes all the difference that I trust her. We've had 10 years together building this relationship so when she's taking me somewhere and it's hard, I also feel open and resilient. I think the relationship makes all the difference. We can do hard things when we're not alone! Thank you Adriene for building such a respectful and steady relationship with us over the years. It's a magical thing to do over RUclips!
Thank you for the practice I did it on my bed. Thank you for alternative to plank. I also managed the second downward facing dog. 😊 I wish I could sit comfortably crossed legged. My knees are always up although I try every other day. Hey ho at 63 and nearly 6ft tall I guess it's not meant to be. I have tried sitting on cushion. Thank you Adrienne for your videos. nameste
I finished this routine in tears. I lost my partner, I lost my job, I’m moving to another city, I found out I’m neurodivergent, I just emerged into my 30s. This change in my life feels overwhelming. But you’re right Adrienne, it’s inevitable. I’m still learning to flow with it. 🍃
Sending you hugs and light from Canada! Finding out you're neurodivergent can be the start of self-discovery and embracing the wonderful and unique ways of your mind, as well as a chance to be kinder to yourself by reducing the amount of effort you spend masking and trying to act like you think a neurotypical person should. Your 30s are a time to shed the self-doubt and intense effort to "fit in" of your 20s and unapologetically embrace your own true self. Your losses are real, but so are your new opportunities. Be kind and true to yourself. You've got this.
I love popping into the comments for a moment after each practice, and really seeing that people all over are coming here and practicing right along with you every time. It doesn't matter how long ago the video was posted, there is something in each one that speaks to those of us that need it. Thanks to the community for the support and to Adriene for helping it happen.
Exhale🌬️ - March 2024 Change and drain🚿 I exhale all of the tension and negative energy that has built up in my body and is holding me back from my true authentic, joyful self. This practice really calls to mind the classic saying of “live and let live”. I feel cleansed and refreshed ready for the coming week having shifted any and all stagnant energy that is weighing me down and disallowing me to move in a spiritually aligned state that serves me as a whole being. It’s so nice to take this time for myself ahead of a week and at the end of a lovely weekend, to tap into my inner world and recentre and realign with my universally guided life path. I really felt/do feel that my angels are looking down on me this week, knowingly supporting my spirit while at the same time allowing me to grow and challenge myself in different ways that will ultimately make me a better, stronger person. Looking forward to stepping into a new week feeling positively charged and spiritually aligned. Namaste darlings🙏✨💓 xx
One of the best parts of yoga practice is seeing how you actually are, before you start your day. SO rather than feeling bad about the weakness, start to look comparatively from day to day so that on weak days you acknowledge that and be extra gentle with yourself, then the strong days will happen and you'll also KNOW, today is a strong day.
And to Adrienne, girl I just scrolled through your comments and saw all the places all over the world. I couldn't be prouder of you if I was your mama! Whoa, you go!!
Today I fell off in the side planks, and Adriene's voice said in my mind: "If you fall, we'll catch you", so I smiled and tried it again ❤️ And I totally pulled it off then :) Namaste, fellow yogis ❤️
A. Blessed morning to my yoga family. This practice makes me feel as if I'm on the beach running and listening to the waves. ADRIENE you're so awesome you're my waves. Thanks very much. May the good lord bless and keep you and all my yoga family. ❤❤❤❤. Love always.
I have been very low and haven't done yoga in (probably over) a month. I came to the mat feeling discouraged and left with peace and hope. Thank you so much for this video
The side eye Benji gives to Adriene before demonstrating a perfect downward dog hahahaha!! I often dedicate my practises to Benji when Adriene asks us to do a dedication or intention
I just want to buy an airplane ticket to Austin, Texas to say to Benji he's a very good boy, and go back to Europe. Awesome practice as always Adriene :)
I swear Adriene can read minds.... “and if you need a little more transition to downward facing dog...” oh yes perfect 👌 and loving the rain patter feet at the end ❣️🙏
Happy Mother’s Day in UK. Especially to all of those not able to see their Mums or their children. I will now have my shower after an energising session and go speak to my lovely daughter who I miss so much!
Big Shout out to All those awesome Peeps, practicing this for the Move Calendar (March 2021). Love this practice & perfect for a bright & beautiful Sunday Morning in my P.J’s. Best bit for me is the feet tapping at the end, my inner child says Thank you so much... now time for Coffee... 🥳 Namaste 🙏💕😊
Hello Beautiful people here for Exhale Day 04:03:24✅..😄😆 13:56💗🤣🤣 feel so good to redo this again..💜👌🏾 I know Change is all around us & stimes can often feel frightening. Thank you for helping us all through acceptance, that change is inevitable and can only donour best ...this was nice, slow and strtechy/relaxing, i love how it ends lovely with the feet tapping, feet massage and inner fun and playfulness😅😂 and wow Benji's pose🧘🏾♀️ is still as awesome as always....thank you for a great start to my day Adriene, Benji and this fab ywa community. Have a great day all. Namaste🌻🧡🙏🏾 Done on these days: April Root Day 13:04:23✅✨💜 Embody Day 31:03:22✅✨💜 Exhale Day 04:03:24✅🌻🧡
Woke later than I had hoped with a sore upper left back. Not sure what was going on in dreamland. I am heading out of town to visit with a friend returning to his home in Canada this week. Always a little sad when this happens, but it is the nature of working as an expat abroad. All that said, I was going to switch out for an even shorter sequence but glad I did not. I found something new today. When Adriene mentioned the root Chakra grounding down during the lunge, I was able to go a little deeper. I also had to laugh when she said put your hands under your wrists, rather than saying under the shoulders 😛. The left upper back feels a little better too! Nourish day 7. 399 days in a row.
You're like that friend we all love who always tells us the truth, even when we don't want to hear it because she loves us and wants the best for us... Except with our own bodies. "I can't do that move!... Oh, well I guess it wasn't so bad." Thank you for sharing your practice. I never leave the mat feeling defeated, even with moves I legit can't do, always supported and strong. ❤️
I started this practice feeling very tender and tearful as many things are happening in my life (professional and personal) and within ten minutes I had stopped crying and felt reconnected, whole and centred again. Thank you 🙏
Same here, really needed this today. It was the ‘well done for listening to your inner wisdom when it said MOVE’ that got me, we must listen to that voice more often
Everything has been crashing in my life this week, and I’ve been feel very abandoned and sad. Thank you Adriene and this wonderful community for always being there & filling me up 🙏
Sorry that you've been passing through difficult times and hard emotions Sandy...you are not alone and our community will always be here to hold you and support you through the practices. Sending love and blessings your way
reaching out to you Sandy. You don't know me, and our situations are different, but, one step at a time. I'm not wanting to preach, just know a lot of us are feeling challenged and you are not alone. Oh geez, I'm tearing up. Live well where you are. Live simply. Give fear the finger...lol
EXHALE DAY 3 2024 !!! this was so fun and laid back. also enjoying the warmer weather down where I live🥰. I hope everyone had a great practice as I did. next is day 4 🎉
Oh Adriene, as if you knew it, you scheduled this class for 2nd November - just as many European countries are moving back into lockdown. Change is all around us, and its often frightening. This really helped me accept what I cannot change. Also, today, I could not hold the plank with you for the first time. I felt like a failure, but you made me feel like it's okay - we're all just doing our best with what the day has given us. And sometimes, we have to work with a little less.
Well here we are in the UK and still in lockdown, although at last the schools have been back a week. So hoping we can see a return to a more normal life very soon. Hope Bettina you are holding up your spirits.xx
Adriene. I’m crying. I’m sobbing actually. I’ve been so chronically fatigued for two years. Diet, drs, meds... nothing has helped me. I just did this video and my eyelids don’t feel as heavy. I actually could physically feel change happening. I’m going to start doing these videos every day. I did your yoga camp and yoga revolution before I got sick. I cannot believe I’ve abandoned this for so long. This was the answer all along.
Started as a self-challenged, show to myself that I can stick for 30 days doing something out of my confort zone. I never stopped. Today with this practice is day 365 and I can't be more proud of myself showing me that I can do way more than what my mind think. Thank you Adriene for being there, every day in this journey ❤️
Greetings all Move folk. Still getting to my mat since Breath! Just what was needed today after a long week at work and not enough sleep. Enjoy a rejuvenating Sunday all you YWA folk.
What a beautiful slow, steady gentle practice...😊👌🏾Perfect start and I'm ready for this gorgeous ☀️🏞️ day here in UK 🇬🇧 after the gales and past rainy days..I enjoyed this much needed session, getting quite through with the planks, at times challenging, had some wobbles and Benji's reaction at the end was just tops for me😌💞... Ty Adriene & Benji for today's. Best wishes to all on here for April Root Day 13:04:23✅🙏🏾😊🌅🍀❤️💚
What a beautiful practice again Adriene ❤️ Here's a little poem inspired by you and the community: Let go what is no longer serving you. Let go what is no longer serving you. It's not selfish, it's self-love. Nourish yourself with what serves you, and serves you well.
just found out one of my best friends is moving 7 hours away - instead of drowning myself in sad music and wallowing, I did this. thank you. I’ve been doing yoga for a little over three years now and it never fails to show up for me when I show up for it 💕
Here for the same reasons - this quarantine has made me feel so insecure. I'll be going through Adriene's entire yoga for uncertain times playlist in the next few weeks. It's good to see others are looking to yoga too right now.
I am a student at McGill, and lately I’ve been so overwhelmed with working full time to pay for school and studying for finals I have not had the chance to move my body. Today, after getting home late from the library, I put todays April yoga on. I am so pleased I did. At the end, I grinned and lightly tapped my feet on my pillow so I wouldn’t wake my roommates. My body still hurts from sitting all day (everyday) working, but I am feeling a bit less clogged. Glad to know I can tune in here whenever and escape the monotony of work. Happiness and health to everyone who will also do this practice today, or any other day. We are strong!
You’re very strong for not giving up and doing what you do everyday even though it’s hard. I just wanted you to know that I admire you and think that you should be very proud of yourself. Wishing you the best!
Hi, I just wanted to let you know that you are brave and definitely not alone in this. Me and a lot of friends are struggling too at the moment due to job losses etc. For now we can't really do anything except stay open, loving and healthy, being accepting and practicing yoga. Much love from Germany :)
Blessed Beloved Beauties! Exhale Day - 3 is right on time. My shoulder girdles have been feeling tight. This session was a great way to loosen my shoulders. Now, I'm ready for a run 🏃🏿 and ready to prep my lectures for this upcoming week. Have a great week ahead everyone! 🦋❤️🦋
This was needed as a slower today as the trees are pollinating, making me alittle headachy and stuffy. Hopefully my lymph glands will love me and get going. Thanks, Adriene 💚🌳
This really hit the spot!! Thank you so much!!! I have exciting news everyone!! I have been climbing out of a depression, more than likely heightened by winter, and I have plans and ambitions again!! My man and I will be moving across the state in the next couple months!! And I am so excited!! We have come up with plans and we are already executing some of them!! Thank you to this community!!! I love you all! Namaste 💖✌️
I know this was posted a while ago but I hope you're doing better now! Best of luck to you on all your endeavors, mental health is no easy thing, keep fighting!! :))
@@gravitygrace8585 thank you so much!! this is so wild to read 11 months later, we did end up moving about 4 months ago and I've been healing as a person, it's been an amazing ride!! And I can proudly say I've been practicing yoga pretty consistently since a little before Breath came out, and wow I just can't recommend yoga enough!! Much love and thank you so much kinda stranger 💗💓
This was a great practise. After all my organs started working in the puppy posture- my yoga shorts felt too restricting so I accepted the change, rolled it down to let my belly peak out and finished the practise. It's a small change i've made and i'm very grateful to Adriene for guiding me through it
Beautiful practice for a beautiful and calm Sunday. :) I love how Benji brings this extra zen energy, he is such a sweetheart! And that stomping at the end - my feet were tingling with warmth and energy, amazing! Lots of love to you Adriene and Benji and to all lovely souls here! NAMASTE
Thank you Adriene for allways being there for us, me. So grateful for being part of this amazing community. Thank you folks for practicing together. Happy Sunday, Loves!
I just love, love, love this practice....from the luscious opening sequence all the way through to Benji's downward dog as we end. One of my bucket list items is now to be able to do the foot tap "rain drops" piece in a big space with a large group of happy yogis, relishing in the collective energy and fun of moving our bodies and hearts together!
I felt stuck this morning, so this was great to get me moving and feeling like I'd achieved something. Loved the end when benji just walked off! Diva 😊
Following the calendar for positivity Adriene, feeling stressed with the second lockdown approaching with family and health problems 😢 so I need you more than ever ! Senior yogi made it through with some little adjustments and deep breathing. See you tomorrow on the mat 🧘🏼♀️🧘🏻♀️🙏💞
Confirmed witchcraft: Adriene releases social anxiety yoga right when my medication change is making my anxiety spike, and then this one when I am really burnt out on job hunting and need to un-drain ready for more change! Exactly what I needed.
Not sure where this month went in such a hurry, have really benefited from the Embody series and look forward to Embrace! This marks one year of practicing each day with the YWA community, thank you all for being with me through all of the subtle, beautiful body changes 💜
Thank you. I haven't approached the mat in many, many months but today I needed something to anchor into. My six-month-old pomeranian puppy sat down on the mat and watched the whole video in the meantime.
Have you found what feels good Breath, Bridge, Move and YWA crew? Doing this one felt good to me. I had to laugh because my left hip was sticking like Adriene's too! Move day 14. Day 161 in a row.
A year+ later and in the middle of a pandemic this practice so relaxing that i was totally lost in the practice. Thank you Adriene for all you do with and for the World by your presence.
This year been a change for everyone - with the pandemic going on, it has made me felt super uneasy with all uncertainties going on. I discovered Adriene's youtube around March, and following your yoga practices has made me found calmness in this chaotic world. Thanks for the videos. Side note: Super love Benji's ending stretch on 22:27 :)
I also discovered Adriene back in March when quarantine and lockdown first started and I honestly don't know how I would be getting through it without her. What a crazy year, but Adriene has made it manageable :)
Same here. I discovered this channel in March. It has kept me sane throughout this crazy and stressful year. I look forward to yoga each day to center me and give me strength and courage to keep pushing through.
I’ve been participating in the March yoga calendar for about a week now, but I jump around on the video days depending on how much time I have. I LOVE it! I do it first thing in the morning and feel so great for my day. I also feel my muscles stretching and strengthening. I love the burn after a good, hard workout, which I get with these yoga videos. Adrienne is calm and relaxing, while throwing in some fun comments and silliness to lighten things! Thank you, Adrienne!!
I've been struggling a lot these past few months. I fell out of all the routines that helped me manage my chronic pain and PTSD symptoms, and it's had its consequences. I'm a full time student with two jobs, without any real support since I live on my own, so I've been stuck in this hazy, lethargic place and it's hurt me in every aspect of my life. Today I slept for 12 hours straight, missed my classes and an important appointment. I got myself to have a smoothie though, and found the will I need to start this practice AND finish it. I'm not really sure where I'd be without these practices as they've been the foundation of my recovery for the past 5 years. Thank you also for being so encouraging, not sure I'd have been able to find the energy to get through the practice and stay present without it. Endless love for everyone else doing these practices. May we all find the strength and grace to get through change.
Recovering from covid (which was easy on me and I'm thankful for that) and now I've been taking it easy for a while. Totally whispered to myself "I am strong" in forearm plank. Nailed it. Glad to see I'm slowly gaining my strength back. Namaste, it's been great to Embody all of March (besides the sickness). 🌷
Soo glad I did listen to that inner wisdom today. I woke up feeling pretty grotty today with lots of painful spots. I almost swapped out for a shorter practice but decided not to and feel a million times better now 🥰 Nourish day 7 🥰
Here on day 31/03/2022✅🍀🌸🍀🌸. Embody March YWA ✅✊🏾Achieved!✊🏾✅ Wow!💞🧘🏾♀️🧘🏾♀️💞 I've enjoyed it so much, I didn't want it to end, it's been absolutely refreshing, reuniting, reconnecting, renewing, rewarding and even had a slight fall, thanks for catching me with your soothing motivating voice "if you fall, we'll catch you" forever thankful as always🙏🏾❤️ and I appreciate Benji's downward pose, icing on the cake☺️💕 and it's like you are here with me Adriene and everyone as I remember practicing from UK , I have truly enjoyed this Embody March practice. I have happily and joyfully attempted it twice today..am & tonight😀 Namaste all you Yogi lovelies🙏🏾❤️❤️❤️
I really enjoyed the Embody March Calendar and I am looking forward to Refresh April Calendar. Thank you Adriene and Benji. Sending you all lots of love from Iceland. Namaste ❤️🙏❤️
Slow and gentle. Perfectly suited for ending March. This was a month of learning to love and accept myself. So proud of me and everyone on the YWA community. See ya next month! Embody day 31, day 12 for me 💗
Today marks my three months of nonstop yoga with you Adriene. Thank you so much for the past year and this quarter. I love every single moment spend with you and Benji and the whole community of Yoga with Adrienne.❤️❤️❤️
Remember that when you are practicing at home, there is someone practicing along with you - either at home or in Austin, Texas. Where are you practicing today?
Lausanne, Switzerland! And now I'm ready to declutter my guest room, thanks Adriene!
in Azerbaijan, Sumgayit. Love you Adriene, thanks a lot for sharing your power
Grove City, PA. The sun is starting to shine after a night of rain... it's a good day to have a great day and head outside! Namaste sweet friends 🙏
London UK! 💗
Belgrade, Serbia
I don't know if anyone will ever see this, but when Adriene asked "What happens when you get surprised by something you don't want to do? How do you react?" I realized that it makes all the difference that I trust her. We've had 10 years together building this relationship so when she's taking me somewhere and it's hard, I also feel open and resilient.

It's a magical thing to do over RUclips!
Well said, Ellen. Thank you 🙏🏻
This is so beautiful and true! True for me too 🙏✨
Beautifully said!!!
I immediately think when reading this what a good example it is for us to build trusting relationships with ourselves.
🥲 Thats so sweet!
Terrific Benji downward dog ending to practice today♥️. Loved it!
poetic ending.
I was so glad to see Benji's downward dog at the end, too!!! My 1,5 y.o child also makes downward dog when I'm practising YWA ! :)))))))))))
I've done this practice a handful of times and never noticed Benji at the end until today.
I barely caught it once I lifted my head and had a great laugh. Love from Vegas!
Perfect finale
And Benji steals the show with his down dog bow at the end!! Namaste Benji!
I love that Benji knows Namaste
I really don't know how Adriene does it, but she always just seems to know exactly what my soul needs in every practice.
IKR :)
Same!
Soul magic hits different
Thank you for the practice I did it on my bed. Thank you for alternative to plank. I also managed the second downward facing dog. 😊

Loved that! Benji is too cute!

Aww. I love how the video went on just past Adriene's "Namaste" so we could all once again marvel at Benji's perfect downward facing dog pose! :)
Yes Because he is the flow 💗💗
Shout out for everyone who felt weak during the plank but still enjoyed the session SO much 🙏 love to Adriene
❤️❤️❤️
Weak was that part with one leg in the air from downward dog.
One of the best parts of yoga practice is seeing how you actually are, before you start your day. SO rather than feeling bad about the weakness, start to look comparatively from day to day so that on weak days you acknowledge that and be extra gentle with yourself, then the strong days will happen and you'll also KNOW, today is a strong day.
And to Adrienne, girl I just scrolled through your comments and saw all the places all over the world. I couldn't be prouder of you if I was your mama! Whoa, you go!!
I had to laugh when you said "if you're breathing you're doing it right", such a good mantra :D
Thank you Adriene for all the free practices and all the love and good energy you put out in the world. The world needs your practices 🧡
Today I fell off in the side planks, and Adriene's voice said in my mind: "If you fall, we'll catch you", so I smiled and tried it again ❤️ And I totally pulled it off then :) Namaste, fellow yogis ❤️
I'm here today as well...xx
This made me cry, thanks for sharing!
Benji's downward facing dogs are everything!
He is truly an expert.
A. Blessed morning to my yoga family. This practice makes me feel as if I'm on the beach running and listening to the waves. ADRIENE you're so awesome you're my waves. Thanks very much. May the good lord bless and keep you and all my yoga family. ❤❤❤❤. Love always.
Here for the day 3, of March 2024 ❤ So excited to come back to inner peace after intense February (and not being fully committed to practising...)
I have been very low and haven't done yoga in (probably over) a month. I came to the mat feeling discouraged and left with peace and hope. Thank you so much for this video
Well done, Cait. Hope you're feeling better today.
I hope today is a good video for you
I hope you are feeling much better!
yoga keeps me happy
The side eye Benji gives to Adriene before demonstrating a perfect downward dog hahahaha!!
I often dedicate my practises to Benji when Adriene asks us to do a dedication or intention
😂
❤
I just want to buy an airplane ticket to Austin, Texas to say to Benji he's a very good boy, and go back to Europe.
Awesome practice as always Adriene :)
LOVE the pause at the end that made way for Benji’s stretch. Really helped finish it off. Love you Adriene!
I swear Adriene can read minds.... “and if you need a little more transition to downward facing dog...” oh yes perfect 👌 and loving the rain patter feet at the end ❣️🙏
Happy Mother’s Day in UK. Especially to all of those not able to see their Mums or their children. I will now have my shower after an energising session and go speak to my lovely daughter who I miss so much!
Happy Mothers day Julie

Congrats!!🙃
Blessed William! How did you enjoy this session this time around? 🦋❤🦋
Crisp Sunday morning here in Austria, just refreshed this video and found out that I had practised along with 126 (!) people. Yes!! Love, V
THANK YOU ADRIENE for sharing all your love and knowledge with the world!
You're like that friend we all love who always tells us the truth, even when we don't want to hear it because she loves us and wants the best for us... Except with our own bodies.

I started this practice feeling very tender and tearful as many things are happening in my life (professional and personal) and within ten minutes I had stopped crying and felt reconnected, whole and centred again. Thank you 🙏
I started crying too (after laughing at the Boyz II Men bit) 🙏🏻

EXHALE DAY 3 2024 !!! this was so fun and laid back. also enjoying the warmer weather down where I live🥰. I hope everyone had a great practice as I did. next is day 4 🎉
Oh Adriene, as if you knew it, you scheduled this class for 2nd November - just as many European countries are moving back into lockdown. Change is all around us, and its often frightening. This really helped me accept what I cannot change.
Also, today, I could not hold the plank with you for the first time. I felt like a failure, but you made me feel like it's okay - we're all just doing our best with what the day has given us. And sometimes, we have to work with a little less.
Sending you love and support from Czechia! :) We got this! :) Namaste
Prayers, love, and light to you all!!
Well here we are in the UK and still in lockdown, although at last the schools have been back a week. So hoping we can see a return to a more normal life very soon. Hope Bettina you are holding up your spirits.xx
A little more than a year later we're doing this practice again (7 Nov 2021 - and the world is changing once more)
Tapping the feet was extremely joyful and Benji's reactions were priceless. Had to rewatch them again :D
came from the MOVE calendar. Love the Benji cameo at the end!
Glancing up at the very end to get an honorary nod from Benji is a total day-maker. Thank you, Adriene! ♥
Adriene. I’m crying. I’m sobbing actually. I’ve been so chronically fatigued for two years. Diet, drs, meds... nothing has helped me. I just did this video and my eyelids don’t feel as heavy. I actually could physically feel change happening. I’m going to start doing these videos every day. I did your yoga camp and yoga revolution before I got sick. I cannot believe I’ve abandoned this for so long. This was the answer all along.
Perfect timing! Anyone else watching this after Lockdown 2.0 being announced in the UK yesterday?
Yes! This is just what I needed today. Had the worst tension headache since the announcement, as I whispered Namaste I realised it had gone. ❤️😊
Yes. Felt the same!
here from lockdown in germany!
From lockdown in Czechia... greeting all of you, lovely ladies!
Sending positive thoughts to everyone going through lockdown stage 2.0 right now. I a,m certain Canada will not be far behind.
Started as a self-challenged, show to myself that I can stick for 30 days doing something out of my confort zone. I never stopped. Today with this practice is day 365 and I can't be more proud of myself showing me that I can do way more than what my mind think. Thank you Adriene for being there, every day in this journey ❤️
Congratulations for sticking with it!
@@pattyhenderson2744 thank you 🌸
Congrats on your anniversary!! 💜
Awesome!
Congrats for sticking with it!
1,523rd day of yoga, thank you for everything you put out into the world 💕
Greetings all Move folk. Still getting to my mat since Breath! Just what was needed today after a long week at work and not enough sleep. Enjoy a rejuvenating Sunday all you YWA folk.
Yessss same here I can't believe it and it's adding so much to my daily life !!
What a beautiful slow, steady gentle practice...😊👌🏾Perfect start and I'm ready for this gorgeous ☀️🏞️ day here in UK 🇬🇧 after the gales and past rainy days..I enjoyed this much needed session, getting quite through with the planks, at times challenging, had some wobbles and Benji's reaction at the end was just tops for me😌💞... Ty Adriene & Benji for today's. Best wishes to all on here for April Root Day 13:04:23✅🙏🏾😊🌅🍀❤️💚
What a beautiful practice again Adriene ❤️
Here's a little poem inspired by you and the community:
Let go what is no longer serving you.
Let go what is no longer serving you.
It's not selfish, it's self-love.
Nourish yourself with what serves you, and serves you well.
Thank you 🙏
Beautiful. Cheers for sharing with us, namaste dear soul 🙏🏼
just found out one of my best friends is moving 7 hours away - instead of drowning myself in sad music and wallowing, I did this. thank you. I’ve been doing yoga for a little over three years now and it never fails to show up for me when I show up for it 💕
The quarantine due to coronavirus has left me feeling sad and uncertain, but this yoga practice helped with my first steps to emotional healing.
Here for the same reasons - this quarantine has made me feel so insecure. I'll be going through Adriene's entire yoga for uncertain times playlist in the next few weeks. It's good to see others are looking to yoga too right now.
I am a student at McGill, and lately I’ve been so overwhelmed with working full time to pay for school and studying for finals I have not had the chance to move my body. Today, after getting home late from the library, I put todays April yoga on. I am so pleased I did. At the end, I grinned and lightly tapped my feet on my pillow so I wouldn’t wake my roommates. My body still hurts from sitting all day (everyday) working, but I am feeling a bit less clogged. Glad to know I can tune in here whenever and escape the monotony of work. Happiness and health to everyone who will also do this practice today, or any other day. We are strong!
You’re very strong for not giving up and doing what you do everyday even though it’s hard. I just wanted you to know that I admire you and think that you should be very proud of yourself. Wishing you the best!
What a great way to end March 🤍Embody day 31, 89 days of yoga. Can't wait for the April calendar, namaste ☺
First time I’ve smiled when doing forearm plank 😂😂. The joy of Yoga with Adriene 😅♥️
Benji's Down Dog at the very end was perfect and I feel like I can conquer the day (even after the time change). Namaste.
I love that Benji did a little downward dog at the end of practice 💕
Day four of quarentine, day three of having no sure job security and this helped me calm right down. Thank you!
Me too, and filling it with good things like Yoga with Adriene is certainly good for the soul :)
Same. So glad I found her videos!
It's been 28 days of quarentine now. Have the same feelings, but this practice hit the spot. Merci beaucoup Adriene!
Hi, I just wanted to let you know that you are brave and definitely not alone in this. Me and a lot of friends are struggling too at the moment due to job losses etc. For now we can't really do anything except stay open, loving and healthy, being accepting and practicing yoga. Much love from Germany :)
Danke Mari i! Stay strong ❤️
Blessed Beloved Beauties! Exhale Day - 3 is right on time. My shoulder girdles have been feeling tight. This session was a great way to loosen my shoulders. Now, I'm ready for a run 🏃🏿 and ready to prep my lectures for this upcoming week. Have a great week ahead everyone! 🦋❤️🦋
This was needed as a slower today as the trees are pollinating, making me alittle headachy and stuffy. Hopefully my lymph glands will love me and get going. Thanks, Adriene 💚🌳
omg benji is so perfect. he stretched after the namaste
Agree with other comments; Benji’s down dog was a pleasure to watch, such a great practice when you’re feeling a bit tired. Thank you 🙏
I love days like this!
This really hit the spot!! Thank you so much!!! I have exciting news everyone!! I have been climbing out of a depression, more than likely heightened by winter, and I have plans and ambitions again!! My man and I will be moving across the state in the next couple months!! And I am so excited!! We have come up with plans and we are already executing some of them!! Thank you to this community!!! I love you all! Namaste 💖✌️
I know this was posted a while ago but I hope you're doing better now! Best of luck to you on all your endeavors, mental health is no easy thing, keep fighting!! :))
@@gravitygrace8585 thank you so much!! this is so wild to read 11 months later, we did end up moving about 4 months ago and I've been healing as a person, it's been an amazing ride!! And I can proudly say I've been practicing yoga pretty consistently since a little before Breath came out, and wow I just can't recommend yoga enough!! Much love and thank you so much kinda stranger 💗💓
@@RayAnneMarie That's awesome, good for you!!
the ending was perfect you saying Namaste' Benji in downward dog. ..
Just discovered the April Root to Rise three days ago and in an effort to catch up, I did three lessons today. Feeling amazed and grateful in Berlin.
This was a great practise. After all my organs started working in the puppy posture- my yoga shorts felt too restricting so I accepted the change, rolled it down to let my belly peak out and finished the practise. It's a small change i've made and i'm very grateful to Adriene for guiding me through it
Beautiful practice for a beautiful and calm Sunday. :) I love how Benji brings this extra zen energy, he is such a sweetheart! And that stomping at the end - my feet were tingling with warmth and energy, amazing! Lots of love to you Adriene and Benji and to all lovely souls here! NAMASTE
Namaste, my dear! XO
100% agree with the beautiful calmness of yoga on a sunday :) NAMASTE!
Totally Agree 💙🎴
Finish with this pleasant one as we move on to the April calendar tomorrow. See you on the mat!Embody day 31. 543 days in a row.
Thank you Adriene for allways being there for us, me. So grateful for being part of this amazing community. Thank you folks for practicing together. Happy Sunday, Loves!
Benji’s down dog at the end was the icing on the cake ❤
I just love, love, love this practice....from the luscious opening sequence all the way through to Benji's downward dog as we end. One of my bucket list items is now to be able to do the foot tap "rain drops" piece in a big space with a large group of happy yogis, relishing in the collective energy and fun of moving our bodies and hearts together!
I felt stuck this morning, so this was great to get me moving and feeling like I'd achieved something. Loved the end when benji just walked off! Diva 😊
Following the calendar for positivity Adriene, feeling stressed with the second lockdown approaching with family and health problems 😢 so I need you more than ever ! Senior yogi made it through with some little adjustments and deep breathing. See you tomorrow on the mat 🧘🏼♀️🧘🏻♀️🙏💞
Yes just coming to the mat was a bit of a struggle this morning. Thankfully I stuck with it and feel so much better. Thank you Thank you!
Jumping around on which video to watch, but staying on the daily journey! Thank you so much. Namaste
Funny how the right video finds you when you need it most. Thank you for your help guiding my mind and body to a place of sweet relief 🧡
She knew that we were not feeling good today.😁
From all of us. Gracias 💕🕉️🌺
Thank you for always being a little goofy and not taking everything so seriously. Love and appreciate you!
Confirmed witchcraft: Adriene releases social anxiety yoga right when my medication change is making my anxiety spike, and then this one when I am really burnt out on job hunting and need to un-drain ready for more change! Exactly what I needed.
To my fellow Embody followers: You did it. You made it through the month, and I am so proud of you!
Day 31 Embody ✅ Namaste 🙏🏽
Thank you very much Adriene! Now onto Refresh. 🧘🏻♀️
Thank you Adriene, you are truly Godsend. ❤ Sending you love from South Africa 🇿🇦 🙏🏾
Sending love to Benji! Such a delight to have his company every day.
Not sure where this month went in such a hurry, have really benefited from the Embody series and look forward to Embrace! This marks one year of practicing each day with the YWA community, thank you all for being with me through all of the subtle, beautiful body changes 💜
Congrats on your anniversary!!! 💜
Benjie was so cute at the end.... he did a puppy posture stretch just as the practice ended!!
Thank you. I haven't approached the mat in many, many months but today I needed something to anchor into. My six-month-old pomeranian puppy sat down on the mat and watched the whole video in the meantime.
Have you found what feels good Breath, Bridge, Move and YWA crew?
Doing this one felt good to me. I had to laugh because my left hip was sticking like Adriene's too!
Move day 14. Day 161 in a row.
Hope your walk did you good 🤞😊
It was hard to get on the mat but in the end it's always so worth it! This was exactly the practice I needed, Greetings from my home to yours :D
@@gillsmith6740 It did!
@@johannafrog2684 I felt the same!
Great one today! I love how Benjie signed off with a downward dog, lol.
Root Day 12 🙏
Can't stop smiling 😊
A year+ later and in the middle of a pandemic this practice so relaxing that i was totally lost in the practice. Thank you Adriene for all you do with and for the World by your presence.
Aww Benji's sign off downward dog was magical! Thank you ❤
OMG guys ! we did it, 3 months of daily yoga, it feels SO good !!! ready for Refresh.
This year been a change for everyone - with the pandemic going on, it has made me felt super uneasy with all uncertainties going on. I discovered Adriene's youtube around March, and following your yoga practices has made me found calmness in this chaotic world. Thanks for the videos.
Side note: Super love Benji's ending stretch on 22:27 :)
I also discovered Adriene back in March when quarantine and lockdown first started and I honestly don't know how I would be getting through it without her. What a crazy year, but Adriene has made it manageable :)
Same here. I discovered this channel in March. It has kept me sane throughout this crazy and stressful year. I look forward to yoga each day to center me and give me strength and courage to keep pushing through.
I’ve been participating in the March yoga calendar for about a week now, but I jump around on the video days depending on how much time I have. I LOVE it! I do it first thing in the morning and feel so great for my day. I also feel my muscles stretching and strengthening. I love the burn after a good, hard workout, which I get with these yoga videos. Adrienne is calm and relaxing, while throwing in some fun comments and silliness to lighten things! Thank you, Adrienne!!
Hi Kera. I do the same as you, and pick the long classes for when I can really concentrate and have more time to feel every move. Namaste x
I've been struggling a lot these past few months. I fell out of all the routines that helped me manage my chronic pain and PTSD symptoms, and it's had its consequences. I'm a full time student with two jobs, without any real support since I live on my own, so I've been stuck in this hazy, lethargic place and it's hurt me in every aspect of my life. Today I slept for 12 hours straight, missed my classes and an important appointment. I got myself to have a smoothie though, and found the will I need to start this practice AND finish it. I'm not really sure where I'd be without these practices as they've been the foundation of my recovery for the past 5 years. Thank you also for being so encouraging, not sure I'd have been able to find the energy to get through the practice and stay present without it. Endless love for everyone else doing these practices. May we all find the strength and grace to get through change.
Recovering from covid (which was easy on me and I'm thankful for that) and now I've been taking it easy for a while. Totally whispered to myself "I am strong" in forearm plank. Nailed it. Glad to see I'm slowly gaining my strength back. Namaste, it's been great to Embody all of March (besides the sickness). 🌷
Last night I was listing off things I'm grateful for, among them. You, Adriene. Lots a love. You've got it goin' on!
Soo glad I did listen to that inner wisdom today. I woke up feeling pretty grotty today with lots of painful spots. I almost swapped out for a shorter practice but decided not to and feel a million times better now 🥰 Nourish day 7 🥰
Here on day 31/03/2022✅🍀🌸🍀🌸.
Embody March YWA ✅✊🏾Achieved!✊🏾✅ Wow!💞🧘🏾♀️🧘🏾♀️💞 I've enjoyed it so much, I didn't want it to end, it's been absolutely refreshing, reuniting, reconnecting, renewing, rewarding and even had a slight fall, thanks for catching me with your soothing motivating voice "if you fall, we'll catch you" forever thankful as always🙏🏾❤️ and I appreciate Benji's downward pose, icing on the cake☺️💕 and it's like you are here with me Adriene and everyone as I remember practicing from UK , I have truly enjoyed this Embody March practice. I have happily and joyfully attempted it twice today..am & tonight😀
Namaste all you Yogi lovelies🙏🏾❤️❤️❤️
There was something extra special about this practice! Thank you, Adriene.🌞
I change for the best, so that I could be more positive and negative emotions won't drain my energy that easily! :)
I really enjoyed the Embody March Calendar and I am looking forward to Refresh April Calendar. Thank you Adriene and Benji. Sending you all lots of love from Iceland. Namaste ❤️🙏❤️
This is exactly the routine I needed at this moment. Loving the March 2024 playlist 🥰
This is the most beautiful community I’ve ever been apart of
Slow and gentle. Perfectly suited for ending March. This was a month of learning to love and accept myself. So proud of me and everyone on the YWA community. See ya next month! Embody day 31, day 12 for me 💗
Today marks my three months of nonstop yoga with you Adriene. Thank you so much for the past year and this quarter. I love every single moment spend with you and Benji and the whole community of Yoga with Adrienne.❤️❤️❤️
Whew needed this flushed out release. I felt so much lighter and positive, relaxed and grateful after this practice. Thank you ❤
