I've been doing this first thing every morning for a little over a month now. This ten minutes of gentle movement has made a huge difference. I always had the notion that exercise had to be hard and was no good unless you were in pain at the end of it. Thanks for teaching me a better way
Nice. Yesterday I was a freaking out bawling mess of guilt and regret ..my friend said just say I forguve you. And it worked so well. People usually say ah no you didn't do a bad thing at all...and I've never found that helped bevause I didnt believe it..but saying I forgive myself is saying yes I did wrong and now that is over you cant do anything else to make it right other than go forward without regret claing like ghosts at your day. And it really worked. I had a bit of a wobbly earlier but instead of beating myself up for beating myself up for beating myself up I managed to say I forgive you and then do better. So simple but so good. ❤❤❤
I just completed this exercise and I feel more aware of my energy. Feeling my energy move through my body made me more aware of it. I kept on yawning, it was the strangest thing and deep deep yawning like it was coming from my toes. The further we went along the more I yawned and now I feel awake and tired at the same time.
I just discovered you a few days ago with this video. I'm not in the best physical shape but I have been doing this and Holy cow! It helps my SAD a lot. Thanks❤
This is my first time learning about and trying somatic practice out. I did not expect that, it was really powerful. I didn't know I was going to cry. Just wow....
I love this sequence so much! I have adhd and a chronic illness and its the perfect starting point to learn how to tap into the body and learn safety without being too much. I havent found anything else on youtube that gets the same results in only 15mins either, so thankyou!!! 💖
The pandemic seems to be over but the world is still hurting. After the Collective Trauma Summit 2022, and moved by Prentis Hemphill talk on Embodiment I searched for somatic healing to transform some of my own family history and this video is a gift. Thank you 🙏
Thank you for your fantastic video. I felt the vibrations through my body, but also I cried so much out of no where, this has helped me to heal the inner child to know she's safe, happy & loved. Alot of trauma built up your video helps me to release. Blessed be
Wow. This was remarkable! I had to stop halfway through it moved me so much. I saw a video talking about how thinking and talking about our problems is only half the solution. The other half is processing the emotions in our bodies. This is just what I needed.
🙏 I did this for the first time yesterday. I have slept the best I have in a long time and I feel I released a lot of stored stress and trauma. Thank you 🙏
I agree with all the others. This practise made me cry from the bottom of my heart. Thank you for all what your are doing - you helped me tremendously.
If I could double like I would! This helped me more than I ever thought it would, what a wonderful emotional and physical release! Thank you for this ❤
This was amazing, I've been doing movements like this for years without really knowing why or if its a legitimate practice, I feel like I finally found what I've been looking for for so long! sometimes yoga is too structured and strong and this is the most beautiful alternative
1st time experiencing this much emotion over an exercise..The pain in my heart released...im crying and incorporating Ho' pono pono...Thank you so much for the healing. ❤
Arielle, I just want to thank you for this great video. I been doing this as a routine whenever I feel something in my mind is bothering me or when I am stressed out, and it helps sooo much and makes me feel harmony and peace. So thank you!!! 🙏
Heartfelt gratitude to you for sharing this video with us. These gentle and nurturing movements freed up and released a sea of turbulent emotions of grief, sadness and anger in me. It was such a sweet relief. So grateful to have found this. 😊🙏🏻
Hi Arielle, I feel what you feel and support you with all my heart. The practice was powerfully and lucidly effective. I shared with my men's group whose discussion today was about the possibility of a nuclear catastrophe either with weapons or the breaching of a nuclear power plant. I am noticing an underlying anxiety and numbness in many of those around me. You have shown me that we have a part of ourselves, our True Self, which has the capability of energizing the organism to meet the challenges of our time even though the human dysfunctions that we see widespread in the world appear to be intractable and relentless in their drive to harm. Warm regards... I send you loving and positive energy and support you in your mission. Joseph
Joseph, so lovely to connect with you here, my friend. Thank you for your care and support. We are all needing tools to cope with the intensity that these threats have on our personal and collective nervous systems. I appreciate your support of me, I feel that you have my back and that feels good. 💙
Thank you! That felt wonderful. Having trained as a ballet dancer using the body to move is always loaded with baggage but this didn't trigger that experience at all. Despite having so much pain in various joints it felt very liberating to take the various movements to a place that didn't hurt. Again, thank you!
I am just discovering somatic yoga, I am experiencing some stressful events in my life, so I thought I would give it a try. Your voice is very calm and reassuring, I felt held through this practice, I smiled, wobbled and there was a point when you asked what you feel angry about, I let out some silent screams, the energy released. It's amazing like letting go of the pent up emotions but in a healthy, gentle, supported way. Thank u 😊
thank you Arielle. Again I'm using this as a kind of inward listening into my bones, blood, fascia, muscles, tendons, soft spots, raw spots as I'm moving myself around in my early morning space, which is quite blissful right now.
This is so wonderful, thank you! I cried, I felt connection to self and release of energy that apparently was stuck. Thank you for this, I use it on a regular basis now ❤
This was really good, I did it twice back to back, I couldn’t resist doing it over, the first time I cried, both times a lovely release and definitely a positive shift! Thank you 🙏🌸
I was not expecting an emotional release. I have done a few somatic exercises before with no emotional response. This one had me crying. It was powerful. I plan to do this in the morning to help start my day released and less stressed. Thank you.
so good now! I was feeling stuck in my capsule and this time I felt the need to do something, to move my body and I remembered your videos. So so helpful. Thank you so much!
Wow~ I didn't even realize I had so much stuck energy. I paired this with your 30 min. empowered yoga class and feel so much better!! Thank you for all you do to share your expertise with the world. :)
Thank you so much, this was awesome!! Had it saved for the longest time and today I finally gave it a chance, boy I needed this ☺I appreciate you making videos to help us all, much love and blessings to you!
Thank you so much! This worked wonders for me even the first time doing it! I found some emotional release and also on a physical level. I'm definetely going to practice this more often now! 🙏🏽💕
Absolutely amazing, I wanted a longer video, so that I allow myself more time to release, however this simple exercise have helped alot thank you ❤️❤️❤️🙏
Hi Arielle, been following you for a while and getting to a peak point of understand my c-ptsd which for years has manifested as dissociation. Something which is so incredibly difficult to move through and past once the body has started making a habit out of it. This afternoon I wrote a list of the three most traumatic incidences in my life that has caused me that response to be my go to - suppressed anger, crossing of boundaries, suppressed ability to escape a situation, and emotional stress over too long causing a long term suppressed sense of real joy and happiness in life. Decided I’d focus on releasing this while I was doing this practice and oh my ! It worked - going to integrate it every day for the next month, and heal through what has been suppressed too long. And I know I’ll be a different version of myself because of it . Many thanks for being there with us all I can only prompt more of these practices ❤
thank you for sharing this. i am also diagnosed with cptsd and dissociate very regularly so it’s nice to hear that something is working. i will be doing this every day as well. hope it helps me
I've been doing this first thing every morning for a little over a month now.

I always had the notion that exercise had to be hard and was no good unless you were in pain at the end of it.
Thanks for teaching me a better way
I just cryed a lot, I didn't know that I have so much pain. And I forgive my inner child and the adult that I am today. Thanks for this, so much 💜
So glad this supported you to release and feel.
I read your comment and as I did the exercise I didn't really believe it would have a similar effect but I had the exact same experience! ❤
“The adult that I am today” that sits with me. I love this comment, thank you :)
Nice. Yesterday I was a freaking out bawling mess of guilt and regret ..my friend said just say I forguve you. And it worked so well. People usually say ah no you didn't do a bad thing at all...and I've never found that helped bevause I didnt believe it..but saying I forgive myself is saying yes I did wrong and now that is over you cant do anything else to make it right other than go forward without regret claing like ghosts at your day.

So simple but so good. ❤❤❤
Jesus does the forgiving..
Didnt expect that as soon as I'll put my hand onto my face, I'll burst out crying.
I had repressed these emotions for so long.
Thank you for this.😢❤
I was stuck in a freeze state all day and this has helped shift that, thank you
My headache went away while doing this and I ended up smiling a lot and laughing. It did a lot to get me out of a freeze state. Thanks for sharing!
I needed this. Waking up at 5am in tears and aggression is strange. This has helped a bit.
Thank you for this. This exercise confirmed that severe lack of support is why I have a paralyzing knot in my Solar Plex. I cried like a baby.
I also felt a super tight blockage in that area. From all the emotion i hold down
i still feel it or it came back , anyone else experience that?
I just completed this exercise and I feel more aware of my energy. Feeling my energy move through my body made me more aware of it. I kept on yawning, it was the strangest thing and deep deep yawning like it was coming from my toes. The further we went along the more I yawned and now I feel awake and tired at the same time.
did you keep doing it? I think i need something like this bi daily for awhile. about to do it now.
This honestly made me feel empowered over my being instead of a victim of my emotional states. All I can say is thank you🙏
Amazing!!! I love hearing that. Have a wonderful day.
This has become my daily morning somatic practice. So many yawns. Sending my community your way! 🥰
wow. i woke up in 6am with anxiety. thank you thank you thank you. such a relief
I just did this and felt SO MADDDDD😡 then I went on to journal it and it was a much needed release 🙏🏻 thank you so much for this
I just discovered you a few days ago with this video.
I'm not in the best physical shape but I have been doing this and Holy cow! It helps my SAD a lot.

When she said to put your palms over your heart... !! I almost weeped.
Thank you for your fantastic video. I felt the vibrations through my body, but also I cried so much out of no where, this has helped me to heal the inner child to know she's safe, happy & loved. Alot of trauma built up your video helps me to release. Blessed be
This is my absolute favorite somatic practice to get stuck energy out of my body. Thank you! 🙏🏾
How do you know there’s stuck energy?
Wow. This was remarkable! I had to stop halfway through it moved me so much. I saw a video talking about how thinking and talking about our problems is only half the solution. The other half is processing the emotions in our bodies. This is just what I needed.
