Honestly, I believe you deserve more subscribers. You are my most favourite yoga teacher in RUclips. It's your voice, your clear instructions, the sounds in the background, the options depending on the level and much more! I' m so sorry to hear about your injury 😞 I pray for you to recover as quickly as possible, to be able to do all the things that you love again soon ❤️ 🙏
Hello Maris. My name is Marissa from the Philippines and my nickname is also Maris. I am 62 years old and accidentally discovered your channel in you tube last year. Salamat to all your videos because it has helped my body to be flexible and strong. I pray that you will recover soon and will continue your passion for teaching ypga. God bless.
Thank you for sharing, your honesty is refreshing & appreciated. It is lovely that you will be continuing the channel with your husband & We have your back! Much love 💕 from Trinidad 🇹🇹
I am so sorry to hear about this development! A few things occur to me - 1. If you feel up for it, an arms-free yoga class for frozen shoulder could be helpful to a lot of people in a similar situation! Your wrist-free classes were a godsend for the year I spent with an elbow injury. 2. Dr. Karl Kaluza at Rebound in Lake Oswego has been really helpful for my various injuries and issues. He’s a DO and he thinks outside the box - and he offers PRP injections and other treatments. 3. Hand Center of Oregon in Tualatin also treats shoulders - and they helped me when nobody else could, after years of multiple doctors and physical/occupational therapists. Anita Ploghoft is more thorough than anyone I’ve ever seen. I wish you the best of luck with adjusting to this difficult new reality - and I hope you can make a full recovery!
Sorry to hear, Maris! Your hands free videos have been keeping me sane through my tennis elbow injury--I can relate to not being able to do what you love! I'll bet you can offer a fantastic arms free practice that will make you and your fans happy, though. Great workaround using your husband as yogi while you're injured--I appreciate you sticking it out! Best wishes for a speedy recovery!
Thank you! Sorry about your tennis elbow injury. Glad the wrist-free videos are helpful. I can't even do those myself! That's how extremely limited my mobility is now. Yes, it's great to have the hubby as my student. Thanks! :)
@@YogaUpload I too came to you because of your hands free videos and they have been a life saver for the past few years with all of my injuries! I had frozen shoulder a few years ago also, be PATIENT!! Don't rush the recovery. It is so frustrating for sure! Take care of yourself ..Your voice will guide all of us as always.
Thank you so much for sharing. I have always loved the calm yet challenging way you teach yoga, and I am sure your future videos will be just as perfect. Please don’t be too hard on yourself; often, we do not fall chronicly ill or stop functioning the way we want simply because we did something wrong. I have a chronic illness and it took me a long time to understand as well as to overcome the pressure we put ourselves under by looking for causes we could have avoided. Don‘t give up!
Maris, I am one of your patrons and I am 85. I had to stop some yoga poses. I went to an orthopedist and he immediately took a MRI. He does yoga too. Ironically, I have a small tear in my left shoulder. Repairing the tear will enable me to get back to my full yoga. He told me no four hands postures on the floor putting pressure. I have been active all my life and was doing full classes at the gym. I have left the gym and I still am a patron of your site. I do all the 30-minute seated and standing postures. I had a frozen shoulder years ago, and the orthopedic Dr. gave me a shot which was immediate results. On that tear, I am going to do the surgery early next month as an outpatient, 2 months, twice a week therapy, and continue at home with therapy. You do have a lot going on. The tear will never heal itself, and you are too young. I could take just therapy, that is not a real solution. I love yoga and want to get back to it. My Yoga teacher visited me yesterday and she wanted to see what I was doing. She is 62 and a real yogi, vegan, and does annual retreats. She said your style, and postures are excellent. She is going to check out some of your videos. She has a zoom class and teaches in various venues at the beach. The only person you should be listening to is your orthoptist. The downward dogs and all postures put the weight that ends up on your shoulders. The quickest way to recover is to stay off the floor. Namaste, Gilda from Florida.
You are such an inspiring person, thank you! Your words are really hitting me and resonating with me right now. I am someone who has (I believe) taken really good care of my body with exercise and eating right. And in spite of that, I just got diagnosed with a chronic GI condition. I am also realizing that I have been under stress, and this is my body telling me to slooooow doooown. As you said, I am also feeling humbled. Thank you for putting all these feelings into words so eloquently; it really moved me. I'm feeling inspired by your positive attitude in spite of the circumstances. I wish you all the healing and peace and I hope that you also listen to your body and let it be your guide! Much love!
Hello Maris, I am sorry to hear about your health and I wish you the best possible recovery. Take all the time you need, we will be there. I am a French yoga teacher and I discovered your classes a few years ago when I had a shoulder injury. You saved my practice with your "no downdog" classes. But you also ruined all the other yoga classes on the internet for me 🙂 No one compares! You are such a great and precise teacher! I love your cues, your voice, the way you guide everyone at their own level... Brilliant teaching. Indeed the screen is only there for the pleasure of seing you smiling at us from time to time. So it works perfectly with the new "star student" (cheers to him). I love that you decided to share this with us, as it is a lesson in itself. It is very courageous to show vulnerability, and this strengthens your position as a leader. Thank you for reminding us to listen to our bodies, that who ever we are, we sometimes need to slow down, and that whatever happens we can always pivot, and find a solution. Lots of support from this side of the world, and all the best to you and your family
I did a yoga challenge for two months and destroyed my shoulders! But I love yoga so stick with what you do because it is so valuable to people with shoulder, wrist, arm issues!
So sorry to hear. I’ve had 2 frozen shoulders right and left and it is miserable. It’s hard to do your daily activities and sleep is impossible because the pain is constant. Just know that “eventually” you will heal. It took me a couple years but it will get better.
Oh no Maris! I'm so sorry to hear this. It's incredible how positive you seem to be keeping in spite of all of these challenges. I know you've been an inspiration and a light to all of us over the years and I hope for your full and speedy recovery! And thank you for being you.
Spine surgery for me in 2020. (The latest in many surgeries, specifically knees 3X) So I thought, "What's this yoga thing all about, I need new options physically, emotionally & spirtually!" Well, I began with you Maris, and I stay with you. Especially wrist-free options. Maris, life is but a SERIES OF RECOVERIES - keep the faith, listen to your Team, be grateful - this too shall pass. Much love.
Wishing you a path to recovery that nourishes you in new ways. So so sorry for the pain and discomfort and hope you feel better far sooner than you hope. Get all the support you need to nurture yourself during this time...important things will come from it and YOU are worth the investment. Doing your videos have been a part of my physical and mental health the last few years and I wish you well. Life is a long road and each twist and turn in the path can help us turn inward to blossom outward. Wish I had learned that in my 40s...you are ahead of the game!
You were my first yoga "instructor" I went to others only to find myself coming back to you. You are easy to follow and just love the way you instruct. I had shoulder surgery 2 yrs ago. Same issue. It took nearly a year for recovery. I had no choice. A tear here, torn there. I waited till I could not. It was not getting better. Pray this works out for you. I agree. We do these things to maintain our body only to find the wear and tear happen anyway. I have always ran and now my knees bother me from time to time. I don't know. I am 57 at my high school weight and have more energy than most. What are we supposed to do? I plan on continuing with weights, HIIT, running and of course yoga. I have a cleaning service so this too keeps me moving. I suspect it is because I keep moving I can. Don't let this get you down. Too many people count on you. During my recovery of surgery clients had someone else clean for them. Once I came back online, they were happy as hell to see me. I suspect this will happen for you. So take care of yourself, speedy recovery, and all will be here patiently awaiting your return. That's how good you are at what you do. Thank you Maris.
I am really sorry 😔 about what is happening to you. I am 52 years old and same happens to me recently and what I did and worked, was stop hurting my shoulders completely because I couldn't even move my left arm at all, had to drive my car with one hand. Started taking vitamins like MSM Collagen Magnesio y Potasio plus vitamin D. Now I am feeling better thats why started.doing yoga again and when I searched your videos found this message of you, and made me so sad. But you are younger I am sure you will get better. In fact I have been following for years, and love tour videos!! I watch and use many of them, I hope from God you feel better soon. :)
Wishing you well on your journey to full recovery. I LOVE your videos, you and they got me through Covid and continue to provide excellent yoga instruction. Thank you!
I hope you take comfort in others stories of injuries & full recovery! I wish you the best health care, and if it helps to hear…I had a bad rotator cuff tear, surgery, frozen shoulder, and tendinitis develop in my “good” shoulder. All of that resolved, a Cortizone shot helped me for frozen shoulder but I know not everyone. Within a year things were so much better and now it’s basically 100% better like it never happened. I wish you the same luck in a full recovery! (my husband had to brush/dry/“style” my hair when I had frozen shoulder. TERRIBLE!!!!)
If the reason for that shoulder condition is over use then do what you are doing, rest rest rest and when start again slow down and remember consistency is more beneficial than intensity. You will be fine. Thank you for sharing. Indeed that will remind us to slow down too.
Sorry to hear this. You are describing a path I have been down. Your wrist free videos saved my yoga practice when I broke a wrist and I continued on with them or save my shoulders.
Hello Maris. I am "a bit" older than you and I have similar shoulder issues. When you see a doctor, ask about Diclofenac Sodium tablets (not the gel). I have found the tablets to be very effective. Thanks so much for your videos. You are a wonderful yoga instructor! 🙏
Maris!!! YOU WILL HEAL. YOU WILL. I had tendonitis in my forearms and I'm a professional pianist so this was a big deal. I went thru a lot of PT and had to retrain myself how to play the piano. And I'm doing great now. Also: This may or may not be your style, but I have been doing Joe Dispenza's meditations and they've helped me tremendously. I mean, his been everything to me.
Thanks for the update, Maris! Good to see you smiling all through out your sharing. Your videos continue to be part of my week. Hope you feel better as the days go by. Nakakatuwa ang support ni David! What a great partnership you have! So inspiring. Looking forward to following the new videos. Ingat lagi.
I'm sorry to hear that. I wish you a steady recovery and the strength to face this difficult time with grace (which already shines through). Thank you for all you do and your great instruction!
Sending love and keeping my fingers crossed that you will recover soon ❤️🤞🏼You helped so many of us with your wonderful yoga classes. Now it’s time that you take care of yourself for a while. 🍀🍀🍀
So sorry to hear of your injuries. I have gotten so much from your videos. I can relate to your frozen shoulder as I too was "victim." I was a Math Professor and needed to do a lot of writing on the board. Needless to say this became practically impossible. Through physical therapy I overcame it and now it is like it never happened. You are a determined person and I have no doubt that you will be as good as new faster than most people. Looking forward to your new videos with your husband.
Please take care, Maris! I loved taking your classes when we both lived in KC. I also moved a year or two before you, doing everything myself as other life-altering events were happening simultaneously. It was the most stressful time in my life and my body alerted me. Sending positive thoughts and encouragement to you. Wendie
Appreciate the update, Maris! You’re my number one go-to instructor! Please take care of yourself. I wish you a safe and speedy recovery. I look forward to see what’s next. 💜
🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺 We usually preach what we need to remember ourselves! It is useful for me to take note of what the symptom is asking me to do. If it is a pause if it is to pay more attention to another area of your body, life, and so forth. Thank you for your honest message. I wish you the best in this new phase! ❤❤❤
Wishing you a speedy and complete recovery! Your wrist-free practice videos were invaluable in enabling me to maintain my practice while dealing with rotator cuff tendinitis in both shoulders, and more recently wrist tendonitis. I hope that rest and treatment will soon allow you to enjoy your favorite activities again.
So sorry, to hear about your shoulder! You should take all the time you need to recover. In the meantime I am looking forward to your new videos where you are teaching your husband. I am sure that a lot of us will benefit from this new format. 😊🥳
Goodness, Maris, you have a lot to deal with... Know that we're thinking of your situation, feeling for you, & continue to be appreciative of what you do. A good lesson to all of us.
Maris you are an incredible teacher and an inspiration to me as a student. I'm so sorry to hear that life has been difficult for you recently, I hope you take some serious r n r time and are back to full health very soon. Much love ❤️
I am very sorry to hear about your injury. I work in the medical field and I fully understand your predicament. Will keep praying for your speedy recovery. Please do take care. Health is a precious commodity. Many thanks for your videos.
Congratulations on reaching 100 000 subscribers. 🎉 I am 75 and have been practicing with you on RUclips for a number of years. You have been my salvation these past few challenging years. Your classes can be modified to my needs. I have never felt pushed to overdo. Looking forward to following your classes in a new way. I have been struggling with lower back pain the last few months but I am slowly getting better with physio. I know that I will be joining you on the mat soon. I wish you a speedy recovery. Your very positive attitude is catchy. Take care of yourself Maris. We NEED you. ❤️
Those chatturangas are too strong for our shoulders I think! I stopped doing them years ago. Do what you can, and rest when you need to. There is enough videos on your site to keep us busy for years. And it is indeed your sequencing and great verbal directions that are the best online! Do mind yourself.
That is a true comment. I had the exact same issues and had surgery and yoga caused it. Our wrists have to be strengthened because we shouldn’t be constantly on them as they aren’t designed for that. I have since stopped yoga but do mobility work which is very different and many yoga injuries have calmed down. I practiced for 10 years
Get well soon, Maris! 💚 Thank you for being so open about this, and for all you've done and still do for me and so many other people over the years! I hope you can give all this kindness and calmness to yourself now, you deserve it so much ☺😻 Oh and a big THANK YOU to David for helping out! I already did the first video with him and it's great!!
Thank you for this update. I wish you healing & clarity. In my own work, I find that the trauma and grief of injury & debility are often unacknowledged. Wishing you wellness in all aspects of health. I appreciate your creative problem-solving for video production.
I was sad to hear what's happening to you but at the same time glad with the manner you're handling the situation.Time will heal you .Nature is teaching you to slow your pace .You deserve the best in life.Your yoga classes have helped many people among whom I'm one of them.I wish you the best.Your positive attitude is the key to your recovery. All the best.I wish you joy .I send the best vibrations from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
So sorry to hear about your injuries and sending lots of prayers and positive vibes. Hope and pray that you recover soon . I love your yoga videos, it’s like a meditation for me . Prayers from so many lives you have touched are coming your way . God bless you .
Maris, I am so sorry to hear about your injury and hope you'll have a speedy recovery! Take all the time you need to get well. In the meantime I will continue to practice your wonderful videos and look forward seeing your husband demonstrate.🙂
Love your work , so much Im a Yoga therapist myself , from what i understand when its both Shoulders being affected , One has to look into Cervical compression/tension once pain and inflammation is down...what can help is 1) dead hang 30 secs 2) UrdhvaDhanurasana practice I wish you speedy recovery from bottom of my heart
I'm sorry to hear you are in pain Maris. Things happen, no matter what we do to care for ourselves. Give yourself a lot of compassion during this time. It's time for you to rest and be gentle with yourself. I love the soothing voice and the gentle movements you shared with us in your videos. I highly recommend you listen to them :)
I dealt with tendonitis of the hamstring, so I know some of the struggle of missing your favourite workouts, struggling to do daily tasks (standing and walking for me), and trouble sleeping. It's great that the desire to teach still finds a way
Thank you so much! I agree with all this. I was doing a lot of resistance training, especially the last 2 years. Just overdid that along with everything else. Glad you are recovered. I will get back into everything slowly too. Thanks!
@@YogaUpload Definitely! It's tough mentally not being able to do some things, but remembering those things also helps drive you toward taking the steps needed to heal. I'm glad you have a husband so willing to help out too!
Hello from a fellow Filipina now (still) in KC. Glad no surgery at least, but I know how rough that is. I grew up very sickly so I learned early on to listen to my body and stop at the slightest signal of pain. It's only in my adult years that I've actually gone faster and worked harder. I'm sorry you had to be reminded by your body in this way, it definitely is a humbling experience. Sayang sana I got to meet you while you were in KC, but I only discovered you during the pandemic. I am so happy your husband is very supportive, that really helps. I wish you a full, steady recovery ahead (not a speedy one because pushing yourself is the reason why your body's pushing back). Ingat and stay safe. ♡
Wishing you a speedy recovery. I recently found you only because I, too, had injured my right shoulder from over use (rotator cuff), and I found some of your "wrist free/no hands" yoga videos from six years ago. So thank you for creating those videos. I look forward to watching more of your videos. May you have wonderful enjoyable summer, resting and recuperating.
@@YogaUpload wish you a speedy recovery.. Pls make more 45 min wrist free hatha yoga for intermediates with min instructions for 1) detox 2) balance 3) strength building 4) hip opening 5) heart opening 6) sacral chakra 7) all chakras 8) water element 9) all elements 10) vin to yin 11) for sore muscles 12) goddess pose flow 13) warrior flow 14) dolphin flow
Wishing you a speedy recovery! I found your videos when I broke my elbow (your hands free videos saved my sanity) so I understand the hair washing/brushing frustration. Sending strength :)
Really sorry to learn of your injuries and limitations. It must be very frustrating not being able to exercise. I hope you get well soon. Thank you for your excellent instructional videos. Would love to see a video tour of your home gym.
You are on of my favorite yoga teachers 💜 I hope you get better soon. 🙏🏼 I think I might've strained mine by doing thread the needle. It just started hurting so bad this morning after a class. Could that cause that cuz now I'm in so much pain I can barely move my arm. Ugh I Love Yoga!! Please keep us updated. Wishing u a quick recovery 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 Thank u so much for sharing your story💕
Maris, I just want to say thank you for sharing your news, this is a brave thing to do, but I think it is a healing thing to do too. You have all my empathy, as I have been dealing with adult onset asthma diagnosed in my 40s, after previously having general healthiness-it's a shock and has been difficult. Your yoga videos have helped me tremendously, (especially one of your seated poses I do over and over) as I cannot do fast cardio anymore and yoga is the best for me---and you are my absolute favorite yoga teacher. I hope that your treatment begins soon and you feel better soon, but without pushing yourself, of course! 😊 And don't be afraid to lean on your family as much as needed to get you through-they'll be happy to be there for you. Take care and stay positive!
Mayris, sorry u are in pain. ,,, I think you tore it boxing, and if i were you,,, when this heals,,, do not go back to boxing,, and let the weight training go... Yoga will never hurt you... thank you for all your caring videos....
I hope you can have your shoulder repaired. I had to quit doing chaturangas, fast vinyasa. Mostly slow flow, Hatha, Yin and restorative are my yoga practices now with modifications. . Both of my shoulders have old, what drs have called, massive tears in both rotator cuffs. I'm a lot older now, I started practicing yoga in my 40s. I began having shoulder pain in my late 50s when I did chaturangas, although I had shoulder pain before that. I was active all of my life but the repetitive and overuse wear and tear caught up with me. Now arthritis in those places. I went to physical therapy and it helped me but I need reverse shoulder replacement surgery which I am delaying since it's my only option and can be limiting. It is hard to wrap your mind around it. I was a pusher with everything, especially running and the gym, work. I did have falls skiing, biking, running, etc that led me to yoga because of other injuries. When I began yoga in my early 40s I was still pushing with power yoga and vinyasa that exacerbated my shoulder, starting with my right and now both. You will get through this if surgical repair is possible. And Physical Therapy. I wish I would've done that when the symptoms first happened. Sigh. My right shoulder started hurting in my late 30s from my gym days. I would only get occasional injections and keep going. My endocrinologist is in her late 40s and had rotator cuff repair surgery and she is much better now. She was in a sling for a while. A little grumpy but doing great now. I'm 67 and what you're going through is relatable and hopefully you will get the care you need now. 🙏❤️
Hi Maris!! Do you remember me? Kristina Long from sooooooooo long ago. 🤗 A while back I was just starting to set up my Patreon account. Started searching yoga teachers. Out of all the instructors on there you popped up!! I love it!! So great to see you doing so well with your channel. Great to see your smiling beautiful face after so long! I’ve been on a very long FB/IG break. So im not as current with KC folks as id like to be always. I get back for visits once a year now. Living in Gulfport, FL at the moment but moving to Boquete, Panamá mid November. Wish we lived closer so I could help you with your frozen shoulder. (I’m also an LMT now) Sending you so much peace, love, light and healing. 💗😘
Kristina!!! Of course, I remember you. You were one of my very first yoga teachers in KC! Thanks for reaching out. Lovely to hear from you. Best of luck with your move to Panama. I don't use FB/IG in my personal life so I'm out of touch too. I only use it for Yoga Upload. We left KC last year and we're now living in Portland, OR. I love it here! We have 2 little boys (ages 3 & 5) and we are enjoying life in the Pacific Northwest. Thanks again for reaching out. Wish you all the best!
@@YogaUpload that’s so awesome! Happy to hear about your family. I’m sure you’re a wonderful mama! My daughter is moving to Portland at the end of September and my son lives in Salem. Great place, so beautiful! Much love & peace! 😘
Maris, please avoid any cortisone injections! Fast relief but very bad for your long term repair. Try and get PRP instead. Look into this and it will be so much better than the cortisone. Also red light therapy and acupuncture. Good luck and please be careful and rest!
Check out Qigong Maris! Example, Satori Method. Powerful healing stories from their students, notably they gave examples of people suffering from frozen shoulder resolving it.
Maris Egoscue therapy can help you. They are experts at getting folks out of pain without surgery. They can do Zoom appointments if a clinic is not near you. They essentially look at your posture and give you exercises to put your body back into alignment to allow you to eliminate pain and heal. I hope you look into it. In my early 20s my hip was locking up and I was in excruciating pain at the chiropractor every other day. The chiropractor told me it was the onset of early arthritis. I refused to accept that diagnosis. It took me 10 years of trial and error to finally find Egoscue. They have saved my life in so many ways! You can absolutely heal! As for videos there are so many - I know I haven’t personally watched every video. Maybe you could highlight older videos - that would certainly be acceptable from my perspective. Please reach out if I can answer any questions.
Oh wow, thank you for your recommendation. I've never heard of it so I will look it up. And yes, I will be highlighting older videos too, along with posting new videos with David as my student. Thanks again for leaving this comment and for sharing your story. :)
Thank you for being you! Today I specifically signed on with the idea that I would donate as appreciation for all that you do. Now I see there is even more of a reason. Very sorry that you are going through this💕!

You are such an inspiring person, thank you! Your words are really hitting me and resonating with me right now. I am someone who has (I believe) taken really good care of my body with exercise and eating right. And in spite of that, I just got diagnosed with a chronic GI condition. I am also realizing that I have been under stress, and this is my body telling me to slooooow doooown. As you said, I am also feeling humbled. Thank you for putting all these feelings into words so eloquently; it really moved me. I'm feeling inspired by your positive attitude in spite of the circumstances. I wish you all the healing and peace and I hope that you also listen to your body and let it be your guide! Much love!
Get well soon mam maris
Thank you!
Awww that chronic pain is not fun. I hope you have a healthy and speedy recovery. 💓
Hello Maris, I am sorry to hear about your health and I wish you the best possible recovery. Take all the time you need, we will be there. I am a French yoga teacher and I discovered your classes a few years ago when I had a shoulder injury. You saved my practice with your "no downdog" classes. But you also ruined all the other yoga classes on the internet for me 🙂 No one compares! You are such a great and precise teacher! I love your cues, your voice, the way you guide everyone at their own level... Brilliant teaching. Indeed the screen is only there for the pleasure of seing you smiling at us from time to time. So it works perfectly with the new "star student" (cheers to him).
I love that you decided to share this with us, as it is a lesson in itself. It is very courageous to show vulnerability, and this strengthens your position as a leader. Thank you for reminding us to listen to our bodies, that who ever we are, we sometimes need to slow down, and that whatever happens we can always pivot, and find a solution.
Lots of support from this side of the world, and all the best to you and your family
Lovely message, Vanessa. Merci beaucoup!
I did a yoga challenge for two months and destroyed my shoulders! But I love yoga so stick with what you do because it is so valuable to people with shoulder, wrist, arm issues!
I wish you a speedy recovery and all the luck in the world. Thank you for sharing your Story!
Thanks for watching!
Thanks for update Maris. Wish you a speedy recovery from your ailments. Take it easy & all the best. From 🇿🇦
So sorry to hear. I’ve had 2 frozen shoulders right and left and it is miserable. It’s hard to do your daily activities and sleep is impossible because the pain is constant. Just know that “eventually” you will heal. It took me a couple years but it will get better.
Oh no Maris! I'm so sorry to hear this. It's incredible how positive you seem to be keeping in spite of all of these challenges. I know you've been an inspiration and a light to all of us over the years and I hope for your full and speedy recovery! And thank you for being you.
Thank you, Noor!
Spine surgery for me in 2020. (The latest in many surgeries, specifically knees 3X) So I thought, "What's this yoga thing all about, I need new options physically, emotionally & spirtually!" Well, I began with you Maris, and I stay with you. Especially wrist-free options. Maris, life is but a SERIES OF RECOVERIES - keep the faith, listen to your Team, be grateful - this too shall pass. Much love.
Thank you for your kind and thoughtful message, David. :)
Wishing you a path to recovery that nourishes you in new ways. So so sorry for the pain and discomfort and hope you feel better far sooner than you hope. Get all the support you need to nurture yourself during this time...important things will come from it and YOU are worth the investment. Doing your videos have been a part of my physical and mental health the last few years and I wish you well. Life is a long road and each twist and turn in the path can help us turn inward to blossom outward. Wish I had learned that in my 40s...you are ahead of the game!
Thank you, Tricia!
You were my first yoga "instructor" I went to others only to find myself coming back to you. You are easy to follow and just love the way you instruct. I had shoulder surgery 2 yrs ago. Same issue. It took nearly a year for recovery. I had no choice. A tear here, torn there. I waited till I could not. It was not getting better. Pray this works out for you. I agree. We do these things to maintain our body only to find the wear and tear happen anyway. I have always ran and now my knees bother me from time to time. I don't know. I am 57 at my high school weight and have more energy than most. What are we supposed to do? I plan on continuing with weights, HIIT, running and of course yoga. I have a cleaning service so this too keeps me moving. I suspect it is because I keep moving I can. Don't let this get you down. Too many people count on you. During my recovery of surgery clients had someone else clean for them. Once I came back online, they were happy as hell to see me. I suspect this will happen for you. So take care of yourself, speedy recovery, and all will be here patiently awaiting your return. That's how good you are at what you do. Thank you Maris.
This is very kind of you to say, Charlotte. Thank you so much. :)
I am really sorry 😔 about what is happening to you. I am 52 years old and same happens to me recently and what I did and worked, was stop hurting my shoulders completely because I couldn't even move my left arm at all, had to drive my car with one hand. Started taking vitamins like MSM Collagen Magnesio y Potasio plus vitamin D. Now I am feeling better thats why started.doing yoga again and when I searched your videos found this message of you, and made me so sad. But you are younger I am sure you will get better. In fact I have been following for years, and love tour videos!! I watch and use many of them, I hope from God you feel better soon. :)
Wishing you well on your journey to full recovery. I LOVE your videos, you and they got me through Covid and continue to provide excellent yoga instruction. Thank you!
Thank you so much!
I hope you take comfort in others stories of injuries & full recovery! I wish you the best health care, and if it helps to hear…I had a bad rotator cuff tear, surgery, frozen shoulder, and tendinitis develop in my “good” shoulder. All of that resolved, a Cortizone shot helped me for frozen shoulder but I know not everyone. Within a year things were so much better and now it’s basically 100% better like it never happened. I wish you the same luck in a full recovery! (my husband had to brush/dry/“style” my hair when I had frozen shoulder. TERRIBLE!!!!)
If the reason for that shoulder condition is over use then do what you are doing, rest rest rest and when start again slow down and remember consistency is more beneficial than intensity. You will be fine. Thank you for sharing. Indeed that will remind us to slow down too.
Absolutely! Rest! Thank you :)
Hello from India. Get well soon & wishing you a speedy recovery. Stay blessed
Thank you so much 😊
Prayers for speedy and complete recovery. Your helpful videos and your soothing voice have had a positive effect on my health. ❤️
Thank you, Mary Ann!
Ευχαριστούμε!
Thank you for your support!
Thank you for everything, Maris! Look after yourself 💚
You are awesome. Wishing you a healthy recovery. Love your classes.
Thank you!
Sending healing
Sorry to hear this. You are describing a path I have been down. Your wrist free videos saved my yoga practice when I broke a wrist and I continued on with them or save my shoulders.
Thanks for sharing!!
Oh, its an amazing idea!! Hope you're doing at least a little better by now! 💖 much love!
Hello Maris. I am "a bit" older than you and I have similar shoulder issues. When you see a doctor, ask about Diclofenac Sodium tablets (not the gel). I have found the tablets to be very effective. Thanks so much for your videos. You are a wonderful yoga instructor! 🙏
Thank you!
Get Well soon! Big Hugs!
Maris!!! YOU WILL HEAL. YOU WILL. I had tendonitis in my forearms and I'm a professional pianist so this was a big deal. I went thru a lot of PT and had to retrain myself how to play the piano. And I'm doing great now. Also: This may or may not be your style, but I have been doing Joe Dispenza's meditations and they've helped me tremendously. I mean, his been everything to me.
Thank you so much :)
@@YogaUpload love you!!
Hope you get well soon and you'll be healthy and happy ❤
I had surgery for exactly the same problem and yoga had caused it through repetitive postures. Surgery was great
Thanks for the update, Maris! Good to see you smiling all through out your sharing. Your videos continue to be part of my week. Hope you feel better as the days go by. Nakakatuwa ang support ni David! What a great partnership you have! So inspiring. Looking forward to following the new videos. Ingat lagi.
Maraming salamat, Devi! I appreciate your support. Hugs :)
I'm sorry to hear that. I wish you a steady recovery and the strength to face this difficult time with grace (which already shines through). Thank you for all you do and your great instruction!
Sending love and keeping my fingers crossed that you will recover soon ❤️🤞🏼You helped so many of us with your wonderful yoga classes. Now it’s time that you take care of yourself for a while. 🍀🍀🍀
Thank you, Annette!
Thanks!
I appreciate the support!
So sorry to hear of your injuries. I have gotten so much from your videos. I can relate to your frozen shoulder as I too was "victim." I was a Math Professor and needed to do a lot of writing on the board. Needless to say this became practically impossible. Through physical therapy I overcame it and now it is like it never happened. You are a determined person and I have no doubt that you will be as good as new faster than most people. Looking forward to your new videos with your husband.
Thank you for sharing your story here, Howie. Glad to hear you are well. :)
Wishing you a speedy recovery and grateful to have you in my yogasphere. Thank you for being such a great teacher on and off the mat ❤️.
Your Yoga videos have been very helpful for me to continue practicing Yoga. Thank you.
You're so welcome!
good look on the shoulder injury hope you get better
Thank you!
Just like any Filipino, you will be better due to your resilience and perseverance.
Maraming Salamat!
Please take care, Maris! I loved taking your classes when we both lived in KC. I also moved a year or two before you, doing everything myself as other life-altering events were happening simultaneously. It was the most stressful time in my life and my body alerted me. Sending positive thoughts and encouragement to you. Wendie
Hi Wendie! Thanks for sharing your experience. That is what happened with me too. Thanks for watching :)
I am praying for you to have a speedy recovery. I’ve have a shoulder issue so I can sympathize with your situation.
Hope you getting better very soon 🙏🙏🙏🥰🥰🥰❤️❤️❤️
Thank you!
I wish you a speedy recovery and all the luck! Thank you for sharing your news with us. ❤🌹😘
Thank you!
Appreciate the update, Maris! You’re my number one go-to instructor! Please take care of yourself. I wish you a safe and speedy recovery. I look forward to see what’s next. 💜
Praying for you 🙏
Thank you!
Wishing you all the best as your body heals! I've been there. 🧡
Thank you!
Wishing you nothing but the best, a speedy recovery and rest. Much love.
Much appreciated. Thank you Margaret!
Speedy recovery to you. I also have wrist and shoulder issues. Your videos have been a life saver
🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺 We usually preach what we need to remember ourselves! It is useful for me to take note of what the symptom is asking me to do. If it is a pause if it is to pay more attention to another area of your body, life, and so forth. Thank you for your honest message. I wish you the best in this new phase! ❤❤❤
Wishing you a speedy and complete recovery! Your wrist-free practice videos were invaluable in enabling me to maintain my practice while dealing with rotator cuff tendinitis in both shoulders, and more recently wrist tendonitis. I hope that rest and treatment will soon allow you to enjoy your favorite activities again.
Thank you, Kristen!
Oh no, so sorry to hear this. Praying for complete recovery.
Thank you!
So sorry, to hear about your shoulder! You should take all the time you need to recover. In the meantime I am looking forward to your new videos where you are teaching your husband. I am sure that a lot of us will benefit from this new format. 😊🥳
Goodness, Maris, you have a lot to deal with... Know that we're thinking of your situation, feeling for you, & continue to be appreciative of what you do. A good lesson to all of us.
Thank you so much!
Maris you are an incredible teacher and an inspiration to me as a student. I'm so sorry to hear that life has been difficult for you recently, I hope you take some serious r n r time and are back to full health very soon. Much love ❤️
Thank you, Jerina!
I am very sorry to hear about your injury. I work in the medical field and I fully understand your predicament. Will keep praying for your speedy recovery. Please do take care. Health is a precious commodity. Many thanks for your videos.
Thank you, Alma!
♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Congratulations on reaching 100 000 subscribers. 🎉 I am 75 and have been practicing with you on RUclips for a number of years. You have been my salvation these past few challenging years. Your classes can be modified to my needs. I have never felt pushed to overdo. Looking forward to following your classes in a new way. I have been struggling with lower back pain the last few months but I am slowly getting better with physio. I know that I will be joining you on the mat soon. I wish you a speedy recovery. Your very positive attitude is catchy. Take care of yourself Maris. We NEED you. ❤️
Thanks for watching and sharing your story, Eleanor!
Take care and get well soon. We’d love to have you back in action 💕
Those chatturangas are too strong for our shoulders I think! I stopped doing them years ago. Do what you can, and rest when you need to. There is enough videos on your site to keep us busy for years. And it is indeed your sequencing and great verbal directions that are the best online! Do mind yourself.
That is a true comment. I had the exact same issues and had surgery and yoga caused it. Our wrists have to be strengthened because we shouldn’t be constantly on them as they aren’t designed for that. I have since stopped yoga but do mobility work which is very different and many yoga injuries have calmed down. I practiced for 10 years
Thanks for the update, Maris! Hope you feel better soon 💜 Looking forward to your new videos!!!
Thank you so much!!
You bring me and my sons so much joy with your videos! Sending you compassion and peace. :)
I'm glad. Thank you!
Get well soon, Maris! 💚 Thank you for being so open about this, and for all you've done and still do for me and so many other people over the years!
I hope you can give all this kindness and calmness to yourself now, you deserve it so much ☺😻
Oh and a big THANK YOU to David for helping out! I already did the first video with him and it's great!!
Thank you so much, Sam!
Thank you for this update. I wish you healing & clarity. In my own work, I find that the trauma and grief of injury & debility are often unacknowledged. Wishing you wellness in all aspects of health.
I appreciate your creative problem-solving for video production.
Thank you, Nancy!
I was sad to hear what's happening to you but at the same time glad with the manner you're handling the situation.Time will heal you .Nature is teaching you to slow your pace .You deserve the best in life.Your yoga classes have helped many people among whom I'm one of them.I wish you the best.Your positive attitude is the key to your recovery. All the best.I wish you joy .I send the best vibrations from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
Thank you!
So sorry to hear about your injuries and sending lots of prayers and positive vibes. Hope and pray that you recover soon . I love your yoga videos, it’s like a meditation for me . Prayers from so many lives you have touched are coming your way . God bless you .
Thank you!
Maris, I am so sorry to hear about your injury and hope you'll have a speedy recovery! Take all the time you need to get well.
In the meantime I will continue to practice your wonderful videos and look forward seeing your husband demonstrate.🙂
Thank you so much!
Love your work , so much
Im a Yoga therapist myself , from what i understand
when its both Shoulders being affected , One has to look into Cervical compression/tension
once pain and inflammation is down...what can help is
1) dead hang 30 secs
2) UrdhvaDhanurasana practice
I wish you speedy recovery from bottom of my heart
Thank you!
I'm sorry to hear you are in pain Maris. Things happen, no matter what we do to care for ourselves. Give yourself a lot of compassion during this time. It's time for you to rest and be gentle with yourself. I love the soothing voice and the gentle movements you shared with us in your videos. I highly recommend you listen to them :)
Hi Jill! Thank you so much. I appreciate your kind words. :)
Thank you for sharing and being so honest with yourself. I love your wrist free yoga classes. NAMASTE.
Thank you so much!
I dealt with tendonitis of the hamstring, so I know some of the struggle of missing your favourite workouts, struggling to do daily tasks (standing and walking for me), and trouble sleeping. It's great that the desire to teach still finds a way
Thank you so much! I agree with all this. I was doing a lot of resistance training, especially the last 2 years. Just overdid that along with everything else. Glad you are recovered. I will get back into everything slowly too. Thanks!
@@YogaUpload Definitely! It's tough mentally not being able to do some things, but remembering those things also helps drive you toward taking the steps needed to heal. I'm glad you have a husband so willing to help out too!
Hello from a fellow Filipina now (still) in KC. Glad no surgery at least, but I know how rough that is. I grew up very sickly so I learned early on to listen to my body and stop at the slightest signal of pain. It's only in my adult years that I've actually gone faster and worked harder. I'm sorry you had to be reminded by your body in this way, it definitely is a humbling experience. Sayang sana I got to meet you while you were in KC, but I only discovered you during the pandemic. I am so happy your husband is very supportive, that really helps. I wish you a full, steady recovery ahead (not a speedy one because pushing yourself is the reason why your body's pushing back). Ingat and stay safe. ♡
Sayang we didn't meet in KC! I appreciate the support. Maraming salamat! :)
Wishing you a speedy recovery. I recently found you only because I, too, had injured my right shoulder from over use (rotator cuff), and I found some of your "wrist free/no hands" yoga videos from six years ago. So thank you for creating those videos. I look forward to watching more of your videos. May you have wonderful enjoyable summer, resting and recuperating.
Thank you! Perfect, now I'm the one with the rotator cuff injury. :) Glad the wrist free videos are helpful. Thanks for watching!
@@YogaUpload wish you a speedy recovery..
Pls make more 45 min wrist free hatha yoga for intermediates with min instructions for 1) detox 2) balance 3) strength building 4) hip opening 5) heart opening 6) sacral chakra 7) all chakras 8) water element 9) all elements

Hugs cuz 🤗 Praying for your full and fast recovery 🙏 I love you ❣️
Hugs cuz! Love you! Thank you :)
Wishing you a speedy recovery! I found your videos when I broke my elbow (your hands free videos saved my sanity) so I understand the hair washing/brushing frustration. Sending strength :)
Yes with the hair washing! :) Thanks for watching.
Really sorry to learn of your injuries and limitations. It must be very frustrating not being able to exercise. I hope you get well soon. Thank you for your excellent instructional videos. Would love to see a video tour of your home gym.
Thank you! Home gym tour? That's an idea. Let me think about that. :)
You are on of my favorite yoga teachers 💜 I hope you get better soon. 🙏🏼 I think I might've strained mine by doing thread the needle. It just started hurting so bad this morning after a class. Could that cause that cuz now I'm in so much pain I can barely move my arm. Ugh I Love Yoga!! Please keep us updated. Wishing u a quick recovery 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 Thank u so much for sharing your story💕
Thank you, Alma! I'm not sure about that pain. Hope you feel better soon. :)
Love your hands free video, I actually found you because you have such a variety of them. Get well and keep up your amazing site!
Thank you Maggie!
Maris, I just want to say thank you for sharing your news, this is a brave thing to do, but I think it is a healing thing to do too. You have all my empathy, as I have been dealing with adult onset asthma diagnosed in my 40s, after previously having general healthiness-it's a shock and has been difficult. Your yoga videos have helped me tremendously, (especially one of your seated poses I do over and over) as I cannot do fast cardio anymore and yoga is the best for me---and you are my absolute favorite yoga teacher. I hope that your treatment begins soon and you feel better soon, but without pushing yourself, of course! 😊 And don't be afraid to lean on your family as much as needed to get you through-they'll be happy to be there for you. Take care and stay positive!
Thank you for sharing your story here and thank you for watching. :)
Mayris, sorry u are in pain. ,,, I think you tore it boxing, and if i were you,,, when this heals,,, do not go back to boxing,, and let the weight training go... Yoga will never hurt you... thank you for all your caring videos....
I hope you can have your shoulder repaired. I had to quit doing chaturangas, fast vinyasa. Mostly slow flow, Hatha, Yin and restorative are my yoga practices now with modifications. . Both of my shoulders have old, what drs have called, massive tears in both rotator cuffs.
I'm a lot older now, I started practicing yoga in my 40s. I began having shoulder pain in my late 50s when I did chaturangas, although I had shoulder pain before that. I was active all of my life but the repetitive and overuse wear and tear caught up with me. Now arthritis in those places.
I went to physical therapy and it helped me but I need reverse shoulder replacement surgery which I am delaying since it's my only option and can be limiting.
It is hard to wrap your mind around it.
I was a pusher with everything, especially running and the gym, work.
I did have falls skiing, biking, running, etc that led me to yoga because of other injuries.
When I began yoga in my early 40s I was still pushing with power yoga and vinyasa that exacerbated my shoulder, starting with my right and now both.
You will get through this if surgical repair is possible. And Physical Therapy. I wish I would've done that when the symptoms first happened. Sigh. My right shoulder started hurting in my late 30s from my gym days. I would only get occasional injections and keep going.
My endocrinologist is in her late 40s and had rotator cuff repair surgery and she is much better now. She was in a sling for a while. A little grumpy but doing great now.
I'm 67 and what you're going through is relatable and hopefully you will get the care you need now. 🙏❤️
Hi Marie! Thank you for sharing your story. I can relate to being a "pusher" with everything in life. Thanks for watching. :)
Hi Maris!! Do you remember me? Kristina Long from sooooooooo long ago. 🤗
A while back I was just starting to set up my Patreon account. Started searching yoga teachers. Out of all the instructors on there you popped up!! I love it!! So great to see you doing so well with your channel. Great to see your smiling beautiful face after so long! I’ve been on a very long FB/IG break. So im not as current with KC folks as id like to be always. I get back for visits once a year now.
Living in Gulfport, FL at the moment but moving to Boquete, Panamá mid November. Wish we lived closer so I could help you with your frozen shoulder. (I’m also an LMT now) Sending you so much peace, love, light and healing.
💗😘
Kristina!!! Of course, I remember you. You were one of my very first yoga teachers in KC! Thanks for reaching out. Lovely to hear from you. Best of luck with your move to Panama.
I don't use FB/IG in my personal life so I'm out of touch too. I only use it for Yoga Upload. We left KC last year and we're now living in Portland, OR. I love it here! We have 2 little boys (ages 3 & 5) and we are enjoying life in the Pacific Northwest.
Thanks again for reaching out. Wish you all the best!
@@YogaUpload that’s so awesome! Happy to hear about your family. I’m sure you’re a wonderful mama! My daughter is moving to Portland at the end of September and my son lives in Salem. Great place, so beautiful! Much love & peace! 😘
Maris, please avoid any cortisone injections! Fast relief but very bad for your long term repair. Try and get PRP instead. Look into this and it will be so much better than the cortisone. Also red light therapy and acupuncture. Good luck and please be careful and rest!
I was just reading about PRP. I will definitely ask the doctor about that. Thanks!
Check out Qigong Maris! Example, Satori Method. Powerful healing stories from their students, notably they gave examples of people suffering from frozen shoulder resolving it.
Maris Egoscue therapy can help you. They are experts at getting folks out of pain without surgery. They can do Zoom appointments if a clinic is not near you. They essentially look at your posture and give you exercises to put your body back into alignment to allow you to eliminate pain and heal. I hope you look into it. In my early 20s my hip was locking up and I was in excruciating pain at the chiropractor every other day. The chiropractor told me it was the onset of early arthritis. I refused to accept that diagnosis. It took me 10 years of trial and error to finally find Egoscue. They have saved my life in so many ways! You can absolutely heal! As for videos there are so many - I know I haven’t personally watched every video. Maybe you could highlight older videos - that would certainly be acceptable from my perspective. Please reach out if I can answer any questions.
Oh wow, thank you for your recommendation. I've never heard of it so I will look it up. And yes, I will be highlighting older videos too, along with posting new videos with David as my student. Thanks again for leaving this comment and for sharing your story. :)
Sounds like you were doing way too much. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
Yes, thank you :)
Try acupuncture
Thanks!
Thank you for being you! Today I specifically signed on with the idea that I would donate as appreciation for all that you do. Now I see there is even more of a reason. Very sorry that you are going through this💕!
Thank you for your support!
