TRUE - DAY 2! Welcome back! Yesterday we got our legs. Today we commit to the power of TRUST. Trust me, trust yourself, trust that this is valuable time to listen and pay attention. Let's move! #YWATRUE
I love how Benji perfectly illustrated today's lesson/affirmation/mantra : he completely TRUSTS you Adriene💖🐶✨😄. So grateful to have access to these 30 days. Much love and light💖✨😄
I love how you are so adaptable. It helps make it okay when the environment isn't "perfect". Today downward dog was a tent for my daughter and tabletop was pony rides.
I don't know if I'm alone in this, but every now and then I'll cry near the end of a practice. There are just some days were if feels so good releasing a few tears. Today, Adriene, when I heard your words, "No toxic thoughts, don't you dare" I lost it! It felt like you were speaking right to me. Thank you for all your amazing videos. I've enjoyed practicing with you
Today i really wasn't motivated at all to do 36 MINUTES (!!) of Yoga. But than i asked myself what else i would do.. like watching stuff that gives me nothing. So i did this Yoga practice and i'm proud of myself. I really enjoyed that Workout, but i had problems... strength wise. THANK YOU for this Adriene! Greetings from Germany. :) Who is gonna do this with me? ;)
I was like 36 mins no way! And, it was the fastest and best 36 mins! Thank you! I'm keeping with my intention of yoga with you 2 to 3 times a week, and it's changing so much for me!
I always feel like I'm close to crying when I finish a yoga practice on this channel, I think because I feel so cared for and at peace. Thank you for what you do, and I'm so excited to be starting the new year off this way (even if I am a couple of days behind). I'm so grateful for this space that's been created where I can yoga my way out of the daily stress and negativity.
I totally resonate xx I haven’t had a true cry for a longtime but I have felt my heart opening and absolutely have tears rising more often than not when I finish my practice in this community, it has almost been a year and from the beginning I was brought to the awareness of really feeling and hearing my heart beat, fell in love with breathe practice all over again and for the first time In a long time I have felt safe and held and back to me with compassion that is growing and benefiting all aspects of my flow connections from self to others mind body and spirit! Integrity and cultivating my inner “truest self grooves” to quote Adrienne ♥️💜⭕️💜♥️🌈
So it's 2021, some random day and yesterday I decided to take up a challenge of another 30 day yoga journey. I already feel it's my second best decision this year along with doing Breath. ❤
Its incredible how different I feel each time after the practice. So much more energized, positive and after this practice trusting 🙏🏻 thank you Adriene ❤️
I was kind of worried I wouldn't make it through this one because I usually stick to shorter practices for the sake of my chronic illness. But I trusted that I could do it and I'm so glad I did! I felt really good all the way through and the time just flew! I was actually surprised when it ended because it didn't feel like it had been long enough for that. Thank you so much for what you do, Adriene. TRUE is helping me to conquer my chronic pain one day at a time and making me a stronger person.
I met resistance on the mat today, but loved using affirmations to challenge my low mood. They always work well for me Sending much gratitude & love for this practise, I enjoyed the sequence and I’m glad to be here 🧘♀️
My husband and I never want to miss our daily practice with you. It starts the days so nicely and positively. Your practices give people inner hope. Thank you.
Amazing practice today! The one thing that I learned today is to trust my breath!!! It was amazing how many times I found myself holding my breath today! Once I realized it and began to breathe again, wonderful things began to happen!
Beginning year 3 of regular practice, thanks Adrienne. Life changer. Today as we twisted and you said "look at your dog" I was looking at my Spencer crashed in the recliner :)
I was so full of negatives today, feeling some serious pandemic depression. However, I've done yoga everyday of our lockdown in NZ and it hasn't failed to make me feel better. Every single time I feel more at peace. Thank you. xo
Such a gorgeous practise. I felt entirely different finishing the practise compared to how I felt sitting down on the mat to start. These practises help me to re-set my day, think through any problems I'm having, and to feel re-energised. Thank you!
I got so emotional during one legged pigeon. These past few months had been very challenging for me with lots of ups and downs, but this practice somehow helped me discover how many things are in my life that i am grateful for and for the first time ever i cried during this video because i felt so happy. Thank you Adriene for all of your work you put into these videos. Greetings from Hungary.
Thank you Adriene. This morning, early, I had to take my daughter to the train station, knowing that I wouldn’t see her for another 6 or more months. It just makes me sad. But your Trust video helped my heart. As always after a yoga time with you, I am relaxed and ready for another day.
The best two days of yoga practice in my life. THANK YOU! And i am even more grateful for your foundations of yoga sequence. I spent few months learning foundations (tadasana is my favorite) so now i enjoy every movement. Aaand today i didn't feel the pain in my left wrist!!!!! I Love you, Adriene!!!
I’m here but it is now August 2020. I finished the dedicate journey and I had already done “home” which was during the start of shelter in place. Thank goodness for this community! It helps so much!!
Great to revisit this practice! Should let you know that my cat likes to be in the room when I practice. He can't quite understand where Benji goes, when he walks off screen. He then goes behind the TV to look!! Thank you Adriene x
First time doing 30 days in real time and I think this is gonna be even more awesome than "just" yoga everyday ! Have a wonderful day every and anyone reading :)
This 30 day challenge is my first try at yoga and so far it feels great. As someone with anxiety/depression my mind is always racing with thoughts and sometimes it’s hard to quiet it. For the first time ever in a long time I’ve just been focused on the moment, all the poses and everything you’re saying. Thank you!
texbex1117 thank you! I’ve always heard how great yoga can be and I don’t know why I never tried but better late than never! Sending good thoughts your way too!☺️
After hypnotically staring at the video for a few minutes, my cat got up and joined me on the mat today 😊 When the invitation to bow down and kiss the mat came, I got to bow down and kiss his forehead instead. Loved making that memory ❤️
"In order to be in a place where we can feel brave and empowered to take new paths, to carve new grooves, we have to have this relationship to trust." I really needed to hear this this morning. Thank you, Adriene and Benji
I’m looking forward to this one. Yes, trust is important to me. I’m learning to trust these years; trust myself, trust the universe, trust that there is a meaning with everything, I’m going through. It’s really hard, when you never really learned, that you are safe - but with time, hopefully I’ll develop that feeling. Thank you 🙏
Beautiful practice. I felt really warm inside when I saw you and Benji and looked at my side and saw my cat, Snak. He was watching me throughout the practice :3 🐱 that's when I thought: "he trusts me" - our pets, part of our family, trust us with their lives. They know we take care of them and love them. So I trust them back. ❤ Day two ✔
This series is really helping me deal with a lot of anger, frustration, and sadness - and it's only day two. I hope to keep going on this journey with all of you and to feel refreshed, energized, and happy along the way. Thank you for doing this for us, Adriene.
Continue to be amazed how the same principles are applied to yoga and marriage. My hope is that as I get more understanding for one, the other will follow. You cannot love without Trust. Really resonates.
What would we do without a little Adriene weirdness! You're the best! I'm trusting you on this journey. Going on one year of doing YWA, daily, love it! Namaste!
Just what I needed this morning, glad I got to the mat... I *TRUST* that this daily yoga practice will benefit me physically and in a mindful way as well. Bonus Benji cuteness is always a plus; what a sweetie!
I feel like this whole channel has become such a huge source of comfort and empowerment for me and I'm sure that's true for all of us who are here. This is not just for what your body looks like on the outside. Being 19 and having body image and esteem issues since I was little. I've learnt to trust myself and be kind to myself. This is the second challenge of her's that I'm doing and I trust Adrienne and so should you. be kind to others but most importantly, be kind to yourself and good luck.
Today it was hard to concentrate due to a dodgy internet connection, so it was a really explorative practice for me. I explored my patience, and so many other things. Thank you, Adriene, for bringing peace, meditative thoughts, creativity, inspiration and self-confidence into my life. I DO trust you. and Benji. the yoga. and I trust MYSELF. We are all worthy of our own trust.💕 Love to everyone💞 Namaste.🙏🧘🏽♀️✨
When you started talking about trust, I started to cry... I don't trust anyone but at the same time do not trust myself either. Maybe that can change. Thank you so much :)
I felt very vulnerable with the trust as well. And then I thought that right now all I have to do is trust that I can do this today. Hang it there. We all have the ability to change
I'm so thankful, that there are people in the yoga community like you, who's willing to give free lessons. I know that people in the community have to make their living too, so don't take it wrong people. It's just not everyone has the possibility to pay or like me have the time and the lack of yoga studios in the area you live in. Of course I take classes as soon as I have the oportunity ... but I'm so thankful for what you do. I've beeen following you for years, but this is the first time I write a comment.... because I have a big issue with just the topic of today's pass "Trust" ... big issue for me, trusting is one of the hardest things for me to do, I'm better but still I have such a horrible time trying to trust people and myself. I always doubt and it creates anxiety and fears.... I often hope for the worst so I'm prepared. I'm turning 40 this year and I want to trust myself that I am enough being a good mom (2boys-ice hockey mom= no time, no money, heheh, because my strength is kind of low rigth now, I've been battleling with loses all of my life, and the feeling of never being good enough. I work asa teacher in Sweden a job i stumble into, I was more into the creative kind of branch, and I have to stop with what I loved the most to do, to make a living, and I like my job but it dries me out. I'm originally from Chile, so I've been around the globe a few time, because I don't have roots, yoga has been a tool for me to ground myself in all places I've been to, I have a dad that at is late part of his life found yoga and I was a teenager back then and i didn't understood then the importance of being told about meditation and yoga, but it kind of stuck inside me, I've been always active but I dont have continuity, because life kind of beat me down, but I hope now that I'm more mature and aware, I will succeed .... So thank you again from the bottom of my heart! Let's rock this! PS : I have my yoga dogs too. Always by the sideof my mat :) sorry for the long post people!
Thank you for opening up and sharing your experience!! I trust that you are exactly where you need to be. It is so good that in the middle of the craziness you have this time for yourself so you can continue to fill those roles and provide support not only for yourself, but to everyone else whose lives you play a role in! I also am grateful for Adriene and creating this platform so that everyone can benefit, it is truly amazing. Hold true to your motive, trust the process and I know you will stick to it and succeed! Namaste :)
I was reminded how critical i am of my body till you reminded us not to have any negative thoughts. Thanks Adriene, i will never forget today's practice :D
Thank you Adriene. I guess, I can't describe what I feel after these daily Yoga practices. You have changed my life for good. Before I came to know your yoga practices, I practiced yoga, but that was like 4-5 days in a row and then a month's rest, lazy me. But it's been two months and I haven't taken a break for even a single day. I don't know what's in there in your practices, whether it's you or your voice or Benji or your calm and smooth yoga styles, or your find what feels good, I don't know, but every morning first thing comes to my mind is yoga practice and that gives me a smile on my face. I look forward to everyday practice. It makes me feel alive. And one thing, I don't know why, but I feel proud in Warrior pose. That pose gives an amazing satisfaction and a feeling of proud, and even when my legs hurt, I smile during that pose. Well, this smile sticks to my face during the whole yoga. Today's practice was smooth and calm, just like its name Trust. And as usual, you are awesome. You thank us everyday that we take our time to practice, Just like that, after everyday practice, I thank you for you take your valuable time and bring videos for people like us. You think for us, you have made us connected to you, to yoga, to each other. You are a beautiful soul and an awesome human being. Thank you so much. Love ❤❤ Namaste!!
3 weeks postpartum. I am so thankful for this!! Between nursing and chasing a toddler, I had NO IDEA how tight I got! Thanks Adriene! Hopefully I'll get my prebaby strength back soon!
Adriene: "Lift the corners of your mouth" Me: *huge, silly grin* Adriene: "... just slightly" Me: "Oops, I guess it's too late now" Thanks for another inspiring practise. I smiled a lot throughout the whole half hour!
gooood morning! oh my, you weren't kidding in your email, today's practice flew by. In shavasana I was like, "is this really the coold down? there's not more?" then I remembered to focus on my breath and all is well, tomorrow is a new day! I can tell it is going to be hard to have a favorite day. Yesterday was yummy, but somehow today was even yummier, how awesome!
Adrienne, this was AMAZING today. My “flow” was smoother and positions that used to be difficult were easier today. Thank you so much for your videos. I started doing yoga for the first time in March 2020, the beginning of COVID. I’ve done yoga almost daily. It’s been wonderful.I’m more at peace and less stressed. I’ve done you some of your back pain videos, and they helped so much. I’ve also done your HOME series several times and chose to explore this series. It’s only day two, but I’m loving it. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and wisdom with us.
Enjoyed today since one of my favorite poses is the pigeon. This is the second 30 day challenge that I’m doing with some friends. We push each other on a group chat. I’m hooked and my goal is to get as close to 360 days of yoga as possible.
I just got finished with your 30 days of yoga and am now on day 2 of True. I can't imagine life without yoga now. Thanks so much for doing these videos. It's truly been a life changing experience and I love doing it everyday.
Thank you thank you thank you. So grateful for this series. I had a shitty day yesterday and ended it in a shitty way: by skipping day 2. I decided to stay committed and do this video a day late and keep up with this journey: such a good decision. Seriously Adriene, I am so grateful for you and your videos. Thank you, thank you, thank you. I trust
Day 13 of February down, I feel great, thank you Adriene for another awesome fun practice, excited and nervous about tomorrow's full class practice, hope everyone had a good practice for today, love you all, Namaste 🙏💛💛💛💛🙏
What a powerful message, "trust". I did not realize until this lesson that this is one of my biggest challenges to face. That overtime I had created a barrier against it and I allowed it to limit me. This will help me throughout this series and in my life immensely. The power of awareness, and trust! Thank you
Hi Adriene, Just wanted to say that my first ever yoga session was with you in the summer of 2017 and I absolutely fell in love with yoga, with you and the channel anddd the community! I'm honestly so glad that you've started another 30 days of yoga because I kind of lost a motive so thank you for bringing me back to my mat and here's to another 30 days of yoga with you!!
"Trust the process, trust the yoga, trust that everything is as it should be"... Finding that I can work through a lot of negative thoughts with simple trust and appreciation for being here. Thank you for this gift!
Now that I've gone through all of the YWA 30 day journeys, I check in with myself each morning to see which practice will resonate with me today. For the last few days, I've been drawing an oracle card and using the theme of the card to find a practice. This morning I drew Th Spiral Dancer from the Wisdom of the Hidden Realms deck. It's all about trusting our journey even when we can't see where we're going. Loving that I'm finding new ways to connect to my yoga practice. And I'm really able to see how much I've grown.
Thank you for not making it too difficult early on, being sick makes it a bit of a struggle but I'm gonna try to hang in there with everyone. Hope everyone's year has been off to a good start :)
This was a beautiful practice for me today after receiving some upsetting news yesterday. I trust in this journey, myself, and I trust in you! So grateful for this journey you have created. I feel centered and TRUST in whatever happens. Much love and gratitude 💜
I adopted a cat from the shelter last week. She has been very sweet but hasn't fully adjusted yet, she isn't too sure that she can trust me. When I was halfway through this video, she laid down on my mat. After a minute or so she sighed and relaxed. Obviously she was following Benji's example! Thank you Adriene and Benji for being amazing teachers.
Had to run at 32 minutes but this was great, going to the hospital for last radiotherapy session, finished chemo yesterday...Celebrating life with Adrienne...You rock! a
The moment where Adriene brushed across Benji's head, I laughed because I hadn't noticed my cat was in the same exact spot Benji was, and did the same to her! Pets love yoga.
Thank you so much! I feel like dedicating myself to this challenge is helping in the perfect time of my life, a time of change and growth and I'm going to work hard to make everything happen! I trust you
You are one of the best yoga instructors-your instructions for the poses are fantastic, your compassion radiates through the TV, I am so happy I found you! Thank you for this gift!
This one was definitely more of a challenge - not sure if my thoughts were wandering, but I did my best to be kind with myself rather than impatient and frustrated. This journey is a blessing. Thank you, Adriene.
I agree! I've never felt my hips so tight on pigeon before, and it's my favorite pose. It's been so long since I practiced regularly but thanks to Adriene we all have the opportunity to do so. I try to imagine passing thoughts poofing into thin air, as if to let them know not to distract me. Mindfulness truly helps with yoga.
Is trust important to you: yes very much so. I do find it hard to trust many people in my adult life. I’d like to start changing that without being vulnerable as well. Thanks Adriene for this series!!
Drama teacher here in 2024 starting True as a new school year starts. I’ll definitely need it! As always, thank you for being here for us all, Adrienne!
Adriene said something that was helpful for me in this practice - instead of thinking "what's next," enjoy the raising energy of the pose. Great advice for impatient, busy minds, and a real gift. Thank you Adriene!
Oh wow this was awesome and I know I had initially decided to abandon the previous 30-day yoga but since have decided to follow through with that commitment as well (you will see all that explained on day 16). Benji is too funny!!!! My sweet 3-year-old granddaughter, Cai, kept running over to me to hug and kiss me and her warm body was most welcoming and she decided to use me as a swing on the first warrior one position after hugging and kissing me; that was an experience but I held my balance!!! and she had a good swing; got to love em. Again how you set us up for every position is most appreciative and truly revitalizes my body through every move. I love the yoga toes and feet, yes sun shining through! I will now commence on with a 30-minute cardio dance video I enjoy. I am truly having a blast taking time to love my self, this to me is TRUST which is most essential to wellness.
This practice came at exactly the right time. You're the best for sharing such beautiful and quirky sessions. "No toxic thoughts, don't you dare." That's my new mantra xoxo
"Close your eyes and Trust. Trust that this time is valuable. Trust that the series found you at the right time. Trust that everything is as it should be." Trust has always been difficult to me. It is easier for me to trust a process than to trust people or even myself. So for now I trust the Yoga and I trust Adriene and I trust myself in that I won't give up on me. And I trust Truesdays!
Trust is the foundation of any relationship, especially the one with yourself. During this journey, I will be replacing self doubt with trust. Trust in myself, trust that I already have all the knowledge & tools necessary to achieve my goals.
Working on trusting that this is all worth figuring out. Day 1 was done later last night after I finally got my little kids in bed and asleep. Today I completed this practice while they are awake. They were playing (and sometimes arguing) around me, and I had to pause a few times. Trust is important to me. I have to trust that this is all worth it. I trust that I will find what (or when) works and feels the best. If I don't trust, I will give up. "No toxic thoughts allowed!"
I have started writing my thoughts, what I've learned during the practice and how I feel during and after the practice in a journal! I've never done a yoga challenge before so I am very excited about this one. I recommend that everyone should write a few things down after their practice to be mindful even after their practice!
Thank you so much for this! Is there any chance these could be scheduled to upload 2 hours earlier? That would enable us lot in Europe to squeeze it in before our day starts 💛 if not, no worries and I’ll delay a day, but if you don’t ask... x
These classes make me feel so comfortable - its normally really difficult for me to sit still without my thoughts racing, or to actually stop to listen to them. I'm so thankful for you Adriene, you are the first channel I tried for yoga, and now I've been practicing for 2 years Namaste 🙏
As a wait for the government to announce a second lockdown here in Italy, I started this 30 day yoga journey. I know it will give me the strenght to push through these unprecedented times... Needless to say, the pandemic would've been so different without your videos!
I love Truesdays!! I've noticed how the True series always feels so good and revitalizing. By far my favorite series and I'm glad we get to revisit it all year!
TRUE - DAY 2! Welcome back! Yesterday we got our legs. Today we commit to the power of TRUST. Trust me, trust yourself, trust that this is valuable time to listen and pay attention. Let's move!
#YWATRUE
Yoga With Adriene Day 2 IN THE BOOKS!! Having so much fun in this yoga journey I even invited two of my friends to start it also!! 🙌🏻❤️😁🙏🏻
Yoga With Adriene It was wonderful. I was stiff at first but gradually became more limber. Thank you!
I trust myself , i trust yoga and i trust you beautiful practice today!! Thank you !!!!
Thank you
Thanks for another great session!
My favorite part of today's practice: "no toxic thoughts, don't you dare". Oh, that was sooooo relieving ... thank you Adriene
MissAnatance ooooh yesss, my heart smiled. I am actually going to steal that qoute for life.
My favorite part, too! And I was right in the middle of a "toxic thought" when she said that!
Agreed!!
So am I :-)
Yes! Especially considering it is a very hard pose for me;)
I love how Benji perfectly illustrated today's lesson/affirmation/mantra : he completely TRUSTS you Adriene💖🐶✨😄. So grateful to have access to these 30 days. Much love and light💖✨😄
Today started my 5th consecutive month of Yoga with Adriene! What a journey it has been.
I love how you are so adaptable. It helps make it okay when the environment isn't "perfect". Today downward dog was a tent for my daughter and tabletop was pony rides.
Hi pretty
How are you doing today

I don't know if I'm alone in this, but every now and then I'll cry near the end of a practice. There are just some days were if feels so good releasing a few tears.

I'm so grateful for this space that's been created where I can yoga my way out of the daily stress and negativity.
Yes! Me too! Thank you for putting words or giving a voice to my feelings.
Beautifully put ❤ xoxo
Yes. I have been trying to put how I feel into words. You've said it perfectly!!!!!
I totally resonate xx I haven’t had a true cry for a longtime but I have felt my heart opening and absolutely have tears rising more often than not when I finish my practice in this community, it has almost been a year and from the beginning I was brought to the awareness of really feeling and hearing my heart beat, fell in love with breathe practice all over again and for the first time In a long time I have felt safe and held and back to me with compassion that is growing and benefiting all aspects of my flow connections from self to others mind body and spirit!

So it's 2021, some random day and yesterday I decided to take up a challenge of another 30 day yoga journey. I already feel it's my second best decision this year along with doing Breath. ❤
I love reading through these comments. So much positivity :) Namaste and thank you!

This is my first time participating in the 30 day challenge! I'm so exited! Thank you so much for putting so much effort into these videos Adriene ☺💗
No Barbie my first time as well! We can do this! 💪🏻❤
Also my first time!! Having a lot of fun till now :) really practising downward dog and pressing my fingertips into the mat..
I met resistance on the mat today, but loved using affirmations to challenge my low mood. They always work well for me
Sending much gratitude & love for this practise, I enjoyed the sequence and I’m glad to be here 🧘♀️
My husband and I never want to miss our daily practice with you. It starts the days so nicely and positively. Your practices give people inner hope. Thank you.
So cool to refresh the page after I finished and discover that I had been practicing with 2,000 other people!
Me with 20 000! :-O
Amazing practice today! The one thing that I learned today is to trust my breath!!! It was amazing how many times I found myself holding my breath today! Once I realized it and began to breathe again, wonderful things began to happen!
Beginning year 3 of regular practice, thanks Adrienne. Life changer. Today as we twisted and you said "look at your dog" I was looking at my Spencer crashed in the recliner :)
Tracy Shea I was looking at my dog in the recliner too 😂
I twisted and found my Buddy curled up in a pile of laundry. :D
I was so full of negatives today, feeling some serious pandemic depression. However, I've done yoga everyday of our lockdown in NZ and it hasn't failed to make me feel better. Every single time I feel more at peace. Thank you. xo
Such a gorgeous practise. I felt entirely different finishing the practise compared to how I felt sitting down on the mat to start. These practises help me to re-set my day, think through any problems I'm having, and to feel re-energised. Thank you!

Thank you Adriene for all of your work you put into these videos. Greetings from Hungary.
I did as well! It was nice to let go.
My cry was just after the pigeon... there must be something to that!
Thank you Adriene. This morning, early, I had to take my daughter to the train station, knowing that I wouldn’t see her for another 6 or more months. It just makes me sad. But your Trust video helped my heart. As always after a yoga time with you, I am relaxed and ready for another day.
The best two days of yoga practice in my life. THANK YOU! And i am even more grateful for your foundations of yoga sequence. I spent few months learning foundations (tadasana is my favorite) so now i enjoy every movement. Aaand today i didn't feel the pain in my left wrist!!!!!
I Love you, Adriene!!!
Who is here on July 2020, to relax during this COVID times.
Me!✨
Me three!
Me four
Here in August, but here baby!
I’m here but it is now August 2020. I finished the dedicate journey and I had already done “home” which was during the start of shelter in place. Thank goodness for this community! It helps so much!!
Great to revisit this practice! Should let you know that my cat likes to be in the room when I practice. He can't quite understand where Benji goes, when he walks off screen. He then goes behind the TV to look!! Thank you Adriene x
That's hilarious! 😂😂💖
my cat does this!
hahaha! That's so funny! My cat also likes to be in the room with me and I often catch him looking at the screen at Benji! It's so awesome :)
First time doing 30 days in real time and I think this is gonna be even more awesome than "just" yoga everyday ! Have a wonderful day every and anyone reading :)
This 30 day challenge is my first try at yoga and so far it feels great. As someone with anxiety/depression my mind is always racing with thoughts and sometimes it’s hard to quiet it. For the first time ever in a long time I’ve just been focused on the moment, all the poses and everything you’re saying. Thank you!
Naila Baez holla from a fellow anxiety/depression sufferer! Yoga has made a huge difference in my mental state. Sending you goos vibes.
texbex1117 thank you! I’ve always heard how great yoga can be and I don’t know why I never tried but better late than never! Sending good thoughts your way too!☺️
After hypnotically staring at the video for a few minutes, my cat got up and joined me on the mat today 😊 When the invitation to bow down and kiss the mat came, I got to bow down and kiss his forehead instead. Loved making that memory ❤️
"In order to be in a place where we can feel brave and empowered to take new paths, to carve new grooves, we have to have this relationship to trust." I really needed to hear this this morning. Thank you, Adriene and Benji
Day 2 of this new journey following breath 🙂 all is well & looking forward to this 👍😀✌️
I’m looking forward to this one.
Yes, trust is important to me. I’m learning to trust these years; trust myself, trust the universe, trust that there is a meaning with everything, I’m going through.
It’s really hard, when you never really learned, that you are safe - but with time, hopefully I’ll develop that feeling.
Thank you 🙏
Beautiful practice. I felt really warm inside when I saw you and Benji and looked at my side and saw my cat, Snak. He was watching me throughout the practice :3 🐱 that's when I thought: "he trusts me" - our pets, part of our family, trust us with their lives. They know we take care of them and love them. So I trust them back. ❤
Day two ✔
Wow I REALLY connected with this practice and found myself really flowing and focusing on my body and breathing. Thank you so much Adriene
This series is really helping me deal with a lot of anger, frustration, and sadness - and it's only day two. I hope to keep going on this journey with all of you and to feel refreshed, energized, and happy along the way. Thank you for doing this for us, Adriene.
The best part was realising while cooling down, "oh Adrienne and Benji are in matching colours". How much I love doing yoga with Adrienne ❤️
Continue to be amazed how the same principles are applied to yoga and marriage. My hope is that as I get more understanding for one, the other will follow. You cannot love without Trust. Really resonates.
I convinced my husband to do True with me. Honestly considering it like couples' counseling for us.
What would we do without a little Adriene weirdness! You're the best! I'm trusting you on this journey. Going on one year of doing YWA, daily, love it! Namaste!
The weird in me responds to the weird in Adriene :D LOL
Just what I needed this morning, glad I got to the mat... I *TRUST* that this daily yoga practice will benefit me physically and in a mindful way as well. Bonus Benji cuteness is always a plus; what a sweetie!
I feel like this whole channel has become such a huge source of comfort and empowerment for me and I'm sure that's true for all of us who are here. This is not just for what your body looks like on the outside. Being 19 and having body image and esteem issues since I was little. I've learnt to trust myself and be kind to myself. This is the second challenge of her's that I'm doing and I trust Adrienne and so should you. be kind to others but most importantly, be kind to yourself and good luck.
Today it was hard to concentrate due to a dodgy internet connection, so it was a really explorative practice for me. I explored my patience, and so many other things. Thank you, Adriene, for bringing peace, meditative thoughts, creativity, inspiration and self-confidence into my life. I DO trust you. and Benji. the yoga. and I trust MYSELF. We are all worthy of our own trust.💕 Love to everyone💞 Namaste.🙏🧘🏽♀️✨
I loved this practice!!! Laughed out loud, trusted my heart, head and body, and totally trusted Adriene❤️
Adriene, ... more than you know, I’m am grateful to be here. Keep challenging and teaching us. Be well.
When you started talking about trust, I started to cry... I don't trust anyone but at the same time do not trust myself either. Maybe that can change. Thank you so much :)
I felt very vulnerable with the trust as well. And then I thought that right now all I have to do is trust that I can do this today. Hang it there. We all have the ability to change
yoga is life changing, thank you for your support Adriene🙏🏻
Wahoo! Finished Dedicate and am circling back to TRUE for February! Anyone with me?? :)
I'm so thankful, that there are people in the yoga community like you, who's willing to give free lessons. I know that people in the community have to make their living too, so don't take it wrong people. It's just not everyone has the possibility to pay or like me have the time and the lack of yoga studios in the area you live in. Of course I take classes as soon as I have the oportunity ... but I'm so thankful for what you do. I've beeen following you for years, but this is the first time I write a comment.... because I have a big issue with just the topic of today's pass "Trust" ... big issue for me, trusting is one of the hardest things for me to do, I'm better but still I have such a horrible time trying to trust people and myself. I always doubt and it creates anxiety and fears.... I often hope for the worst so I'm prepared. I'm turning 40 this year and I want to trust myself that I am enough being a good mom (2boys-ice hockey mom= no time, no money, heheh, because my strength is kind of low rigth now, I've been battleling with loses all of my life, and the feeling of never being good enough. I work asa teacher in Sweden a job i stumble into, I was more into the creative kind of branch, and I have to stop with what I loved the most to do, to make a living, and I like my job but it dries me out. I'm originally from Chile, so I've been around the globe a few time, because I don't have roots, yoga has been a tool for me to ground myself in all places I've been to, I have a dad that at is late part of his life found yoga and I was a teenager back then and i didn't understood then the importance of being told about meditation and yoga, but it kind of stuck inside me, I've been always active but I dont have continuity, because life kind of beat me down, but I hope now that I'm more mature and aware, I will succeed .... So thank you again from the bottom of my heart! Let's rock this! PS : I have my yoga dogs too. Always by the sideof my mat :) sorry for the long post people!
Thank you for opening up and sharing your experience!! I trust that you are exactly where you need to be. It is so good that in the middle of the craziness you have this time for yourself so you can continue to fill those roles and provide support not only for yourself, but to everyone else whose lives you play a role in! I also am grateful for Adriene and creating this platform so that everyone can benefit, it is truly amazing. Hold true to your motive, trust the process and I know you will stick to it and succeed! Namaste :)
I was reminded how critical i am of my body till you reminded us not to have any negative thoughts. Thanks Adriene, i will never forget today's practice :D
Loved it! My old black Labrador lay next to me too... teaching me peacefulness like Benji! ❤️🙏
Thank you Adriene. I guess, I can't describe what I feel after these daily Yoga practices. You have changed my life for good. Before I came to know your yoga practices, I practiced yoga, but that was like 4-5 days in a row and then a month's rest, lazy me. But it's been two months and I haven't taken a break for even a single day. I don't know what's in there in your practices, whether it's you or your voice or Benji or your calm and smooth yoga styles, or your find what feels good, I don't know, but every morning first thing comes to my mind is yoga practice and that gives me a smile on my face. I look forward to everyday practice. It makes me feel alive.
And one thing, I don't know why, but I feel proud in Warrior pose. That pose gives an amazing satisfaction and a feeling of proud, and even when my legs hurt, I smile during that pose. Well, this smile sticks to my face during the whole yoga.
Today's practice was smooth and calm, just like its name Trust.
And as usual, you are awesome. You thank us everyday that we take our time to practice, Just like that, after everyday practice, I thank you for you take your valuable time and bring videos for people like us. You think for us, you have made us connected to you, to yoga, to each other. You are a beautiful soul and an awesome human being. Thank you so much. Love ❤❤
Namaste!!
3 weeks postpartum. I am so thankful for this!! Between nursing and chasing a toddler, I had NO IDEA how tight I got! Thanks Adriene! Hopefully I'll get my prebaby strength back soon!
Adriene: "Lift the corners of your mouth"
Me: *huge, silly grin*
Adriene: "... just slightly"
Me: "Oops, I guess it's too late now"
Thanks for another inspiring practise. I smiled a lot throughout the whole half hour!
gooood morning! oh my, you weren't kidding in your email, today's practice flew by. In shavasana I was like, "is this really the coold down? there's not more?" then I remembered to focus on my breath and all is well, tomorrow is a new day! I can tell it is going to be hard to have a favorite day. Yesterday was yummy, but somehow today was even yummier, how awesome!
I came for the yoga and stayed for the dog
Adrienne, this was AMAZING today. My “flow” was smoother and positions that used to be difficult were easier today. Thank you so much for your videos. I started doing yoga for the first time in March 2020, the beginning of COVID. I’ve done yoga almost daily. It’s been wonderful.I’m more at peace and less stressed. I’ve done you some of your back pain videos, and they helped so much. I’ve also done your HOME series several times and chose to explore this series. It’s only day two, but I’m loving it. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and wisdom with us.
Enjoyed today since one of my favorite poses is the pigeon. This is the second 30 day challenge that I’m doing with some friends. We push each other on a group chat. I’m hooked and my goal is to get as close to 360 days of yoga as possible.
I just got finished with your 30 days of yoga and am now on day 2 of True. I can't imagine life without yoga now. Thanks so much for doing these videos. It's truly been a life changing experience and I love doing it everyday.
Wow so weird I just finished 30 day's and I'm on my 2 day of True😊 although it's a year later I hope your still enjoying wonderful YWA Namaste
I always feel so taken care of whenever I hit the mat with Adriene!
Thank you thank you thank you. So grateful for this series. I had a shitty day yesterday and ended it in a shitty way: by skipping day 2. I decided to stay committed and do this video a day late and keep up with this journey: such a good decision. Seriously Adriene, I am so grateful for you and your videos. Thank you, thank you, thank you. I trust
I did the same exact thing just a couple months later! I couldnt get out of my funk yesterday to complete day 2 but I did it! :)
Day 13 of February down, I feel great, thank you Adriene for another awesome fun practice, excited and nervous about tomorrow's full class practice, hope everyone had a good practice for today, love you all, Namaste 🙏💛💛💛💛🙏
"Finding that place in between that feels you" heck yea, love you Adriene!!
What a powerful message, "trust". I did not realize until this lesson that this is one of my biggest challenges to face. That overtime I had created a barrier against it and I allowed it to limit me. This will help me throughout this series and in my life immensely. The power of awareness, and trust! Thank you
Hi pretty
robertstone624@gmail.com
Hi Adriene, Just wanted to say that my first ever yoga session was with you in the summer of 2017 and I absolutely fell in love with yoga, with you and the channel anddd the community! I'm honestly so glad that you've started another 30 days of yoga because I kind of lost a motive so thank you for bringing me back to my mat and here's to another 30 days of yoga with you!!
"Trust the process, trust the yoga, trust that everything is as it should be"... Finding that I can work through a lot of negative thoughts with simple trust and appreciation for being here. Thank you for this gift!
Thank you Adriene! What an amazing practice. I feel like all my aches went away, much more peaceful. Thanks
Now that I've gone through all of the YWA 30 day journeys, I check in with myself each morning to see which practice will resonate with me today. For the last few days, I've been drawing an oracle card and using the theme of the card to find a practice. This morning I drew Th Spiral Dancer from the Wisdom of the Hidden Realms deck. It's all about trusting our journey even when we can't see where we're going. Loving that I'm finding new ways to connect to my yoga practice. And I'm really able to see how much I've grown.
Thank you for not making it too difficult early on, being sick makes it a bit of a struggle but I'm gonna try to hang in there with everyone. Hope everyone's year has been off to a good start :)
I TRUST MYSELF.. this is important for me cause i have sort of problems like trusting myself and ı believe we'll beat it!
This was a beautiful practice for me today after receiving some upsetting news yesterday. I trust in this journey, myself, and I trust in you! So grateful for this journey you have created. I feel centered and TRUST in whatever happens. Much love and gratitude 💜
Adriene was in my head today. Gently nudging me in the right direction when I slipped with my body or my mind. I feel more complete after this. 💙
I adopted a cat from the shelter last week. She has been very sweet but hasn't fully adjusted yet, she isn't too sure that she can trust me. When I was halfway through this video, she laid down on my mat. After a minute or so she sighed and relaxed. Obviously she was following Benji's example! Thank you Adriene and Benji for being amazing teachers.
Had to run at 32 minutes but this was great, going to the hospital for last radiotherapy session, finished chemo yesterday...Celebrating life with Adrienne...You rock!
a
The moment where Adriene brushed across Benji's head, I laughed because I hadn't noticed my cat was in the same exact spot Benji was, and did the same to her! Pets love yoga.
Thank you so much! I feel like dedicating myself to this challenge is helping in the perfect time of my life, a time of change and growth and I'm going to work hard to make everything happen! I trust you
You are one of the best yoga instructors-your instructions for the poses are fantastic, your compassion radiates through the TV, I am so happy I found you! Thank you for this gift!
Adore the way Benji relaxes into the practice, my beautiful yorkie was dropping a ball in my hand!
Any practice with Benji makes me smile :)
Me too :)
This one was definitely more of a challenge - not sure if my thoughts were wandering, but I did my best to be kind with myself rather than impatient and frustrated. This journey is a blessing. Thank you, Adriene.
I agree! I've never felt my hips so tight on pigeon before, and it's my favorite pose. It's been so long since I practiced regularly but thanks to Adriene we all have the opportunity to do so. I try to imagine passing thoughts poofing into thin air, as if to let them know not to distract me. Mindfulness truly helps with yoga.
Is trust important to you: yes very much so. I do find it hard to trust many people in my adult life. I’d like to start changing that without being vulnerable as well. Thanks Adriene for this series!!
Drama teacher here in 2024 starting True as a new school year starts. I’ll definitely need it! As always, thank you for being here for us all, Adrienne!
Adriene said something that was helpful for me in this practice - instead of thinking "what's next," enjoy the raising energy of the pose. Great advice for impatient, busy minds, and a real gift. Thank you Adriene!
Oh wow this was awesome and I know I had initially decided to abandon the previous 30-day yoga but since have decided to follow through with that commitment as well (you will see all that explained on day 16). Benji is too funny!!!! My sweet 3-year-old granddaughter, Cai, kept running over to me to hug and kiss me and her warm body was most welcoming and she decided to use me as a swing on the first warrior one position after hugging and kissing me; that was an experience but I held my balance!!! and she had a good swing; got to love em. Again how you set us up for every position is most appreciative and truly revitalizes my body through every move. I love the yoga toes and feet, yes sun shining through! I will now commence on with a 30-minute cardio dance video I enjoy. I am truly having a blast taking time to love my self, this to me is TRUST which is most essential to wellness.
This practice came at exactly the right time. You're the best for sharing such beautiful and quirky sessions. "No toxic thoughts, don't you dare." That's my new mantra xoxo
"Close your eyes and Trust. Trust that this time is valuable. Trust that the series found you at the right time. Trust that everything is as it should be."
Trust has always been difficult to me. It is easier for me to trust a process than to trust people or even myself. So for now I trust the Yoga and I trust Adriene and I trust myself in that I won't give up on me. And I trust Truesdays!
Benji is one whole-dogged example of total TRUST and SURRENDER throughout. You both are such great teachers. Teaching by example :) xx
My first real yoga days. I am pretty new and admit it. I am not so lean.This is fantastic. Thanks for posting. Just did day two after day 1.
Yay for the people starting in mid January or even later!!
Marielle ;)
say February!
You do you! :) I started this in Feb and I'm on day two in March! lol
Trust is the foundation of any relationship, especially the one with yourself. During this journey, I will be replacing self doubt with trust. Trust in myself, trust that I already have all the knowledge & tools necessary to achieve my goals.
Working on trusting that this is all worth figuring out. Day 1 was done later last night after I finally got my little kids in bed and asleep. Today I completed this practice while they are awake. They were playing (and sometimes arguing) around me, and I had to pause a few times. Trust is important to me. I have to trust that this is all worth it. I trust that I will find what (or when) works and feels the best. If I don't trust, I will give up. "No toxic thoughts allowed!"
This practice was so peaceful, strengthening, and relaxing. Loved it and this new series!
I feel TRUE is going to be slow and strong and body strengthening, truly awesome Adriene. TRUST is GOOD 😃👍🏻see you tomorrow 🙏🧘🏼♀️
I have started writing my thoughts, what I've learned during the practice and how I feel during and after the practice in a journal! I've never done a yoga challenge before so I am very excited about this one. I recommend that everyone should write a few things down after their practice to be mindful even after their practice!
Thank you so much for this!
Is there any chance these could be scheduled to upload 2 hours earlier? That would enable us lot in Europe to squeeze it in before our day starts 💛 if not, no worries and I’ll delay a day, but if you don’t ask... x
Emily Blake was hoping for the same thing 😊
Agree 👍
Matt Smith first thing I said...
Thanks for this Programm like for all the others! It would be helpful If it Could be Release earlyer. If not possible, ran I just dl it the other day.
I just downloaded the whole series (see email, any price $1+), which is great cause now I can practice them in the mornings
Thank you. So glad I found you. You are helping me through a very difficult time in my life by providing this yoga.
These classes make me feel so comfortable - its normally really difficult for me to sit still without my thoughts racing, or to actually stop to listen to them. I'm so thankful for you Adriene, you are the first channel I tried for yoga, and now I've been practicing for 2 years Namaste 🙏
As a wait for the government to announce a second lockdown here in Italy, I started this 30 day yoga journey. I know it will give me the strenght to push through these unprecedented times... Needless to say, the pandemic would've been so different without your videos!
Your are a God send. Your class brought me to tears because you are the teacher I have searched for for a long time.
You said I can't love with trust.... So good! I appreciate being encouraged to practice this concept today on purpose. Thank you, Adrienne!
I love Truesdays!! I've noticed how the True series always feels so good and revitalizing. By far my favorite series and I'm glad we get to revisit it all year!
Every time I'm learning something new you are one of the most authentic teacher ❤
