Hi everyone. This is a beautiful practice. I had just woken up and was still really stiff and tired😅 but I completed the practice. Shoutout to everyone who completed this practice regardless of your tiredness or schedule. You rock. Have a blissful day and I hope to see you again tomorrow.
Thank you! I thought it was my imagination!
Thank you! You rock, too! See you tomorrow!
such a sweet message
Same to you! I totally am with you on these points you made :-)
thank you! just finished it at 1:37 am😅. so glad I showed up!🥰 Namaste friends /**\
Went back in the video to repeat the plank-crunch and warrior sequence on the right side when I realized we weren’t going to cover that in the practice, haha. Really energizing for a 10pm session ^^ Namaste~
So glad it's not just me -- wasn't sure if we had skipped the right side or if my brain was just broken! :)
I didn’t realise we weren’t going back to the other side until after the seated forward fold, so I didn’t go back and do it. I guess I’ll just have to go through today lopsided 😂
I wasn’t sure if anyone else noticed with it felt wrong to not do the right side so I did it during the rest sequence 😂
Me too!!
you are absolutely right, !was wondering if I had missed it somehow. Thanks for pointing it out, so I know I am not crazy or so.
Hey guys, we're all human and I'm glad I'm not the only yoga teacher to forget to repeat a sequence on the other side😅. Usually in a live class your students can help you out, but yay, here we can pause the video and repeat a sequence if needed. Thank you for a great session Adrienne ❤
I bet we hit the right side tomorrow. I think this was intentional.
I really enjoyed just reporting all the non-yoga-related spam comments on here. Very relaxing!
I just paused the video and did the other side when I realized what happened. No big deal. 💚 I loved this class!
I was thinking the same thing. @@elizabethsmith2263
I kept waiting for the other shoe to drop but I expect it will hit tomorrow. Whew. Dunno if I would be strong enough for both sides in one day so that is a relief for me! :D
13:10 is when she began the crunch-plank sequence if you want to go back and repeat it on the other side. Have a lovely practice! 💪✨💌
Thanks @urlocalqueerastrologer 🙂
Thanks! I like to balance it out!🥰
Thanks for putting in the time for a smooth transition!! 😊
Thanks for the time stamp to easily find that!!
thank you for this
I'm like 9 days late and am only doing a practice every other day, but I am determined to keep going at my own pace. So, anyone else who is super behind and feeling discouraged, keep going! You aren't alone.
I needed this because I am also behind by about 8 days and was feeling discouraged because todays practice got me dizzy! Thank you 🥹
I'm also very behind and feeling discouraged so I thank you for your encouragement 🙏
I’m way behind, started late but determined to make it through!
I do these January practices at my own pace too. I don’t pressure myself to do them everyday. It’s a time management thing with the other ways I like to move my body throughout the week.
Same
You know, I strangely found this practice all the more valuable because of the little lopsided knee-to-chest part. I tend to struggle with obsessiveness, and at first I began to panic "Aren't we going to do the other side?" "Oh no- we're winding down- what about the other side!?" But then I realized this was a good opportunity to practice Letting it Go and Being Present. I think those mental practices are actually more valuable to me right now than a bit of leg movement 😂
You're good for letting go. I had to go back in the video and do the other side. LOL
same! I thought I missed something. Don't have time to go back and do the other side, so I'll try to practice letting go of my obssesiveness too))
I am so glad I thought i was loosing it, both sides now complete! Thank you Adrienne i live your inspiration and the fact you are Human ❤
me too! thanks for confirming I'm not crazy. love the idea to go back and do the other side!
I so loved this moment. At first I really had thought that I spaced and missed something. After the practice ended I went back and did the other side as Adriene took us through the left side. I was so delighted to know that I hadn't missed it. And Adriene I just love how human and real you are. Thanks for you and all you do
day 4 is officially the longest i've ever gone in a 30 day journey! here's to 2024 and showing up for ourselves
same here and techincally on 'Day 5" but we made it! Yay us :-)
Yay! That means ita getting a lil easier for you every day. Awesome. Congrats.
well done you! Woohoo!
it’s okay if you’re doing this 3 days after the official day, still going strongg y’all! ✨
Try 5!! Haha. I got the flu after day 1 😒
Or 6 days behind. I won't be the first to cross the finish line, but I'll be there.
Or 7 days 😊
thanks for these comments! I'm only doing this 8 days later and felt a bit bad but this reminded me that we are all going at our own pace and there is nothing wrong with that :)
@@miragggright here with ya!
Me in Savasana: I am so relaxed. Adriene: Relax you tongue, your shoulders... Me: Guess I wasn't as relaxed as I thought! Thank you for day 4. Blessings on this wintery morning
haha, I always find this with my jaw!
@@charlottewood4789 I was gonna say the same!
Adrienne: relax your tongue Me: *relaxing tongue* ok I'm suffocating now
😂
Thanks Adriene, was perfect for today, as always ❤
Every day, when it ends, I feel like there is no way that was 20 minutes. It feels like I've just started and then it's over. Which I guess means I'm enjoying it and not struggling. Used to be a dedicated yogi, but haven't done much yoga in the last two years and it's good to get back into it. Thank you!
Plus size girly here . I can’t believe how light I feel today . Compared to the first day my planks are feeling stronger I’m not collapsing into my neck and shoulders I feel my core engaged . It feels amazing and it burns during certain moments but I remember to focus on my breathing and find what feels good . Keep going everyone !!! Can’t wait for tomorrow 😊
I'm with you on the planks and lunges too! Happy for you! happy for us all! this is amazing. Pura vida :-) Hasta manana!
Tbh. I can't hold them all or my wrist will kill me. Sometimes I use a big gymnastic ball to reduce the weight.
@@emilwandel I take brakes multiple times and do wrist stretches constantly because I feel so sore . If the yoga ball helps keep doing that . All movement is good 😊
@@intuitivewellnessrituals everyday those deep lunges are feeling better . When you go from plank to lunge to come up to warrior 1 omg it burns . But I really feel like everyday it’s getting easier . So happy 🙂 let’s get stronger 💪💪💪💪💪💪
@emilwandel try a plank on your forearms to take the pressure off your wrists
“The hardest part is showing up” “If you fall, we’ll catch you” “Find what feels good” ❤
💯
“Move into exquisite stillness”… my favorite part of this practice.
In the many years I've been practicing YWA, this is the first time Adriene has forgotten to do the other side and so many of us noticed. Oops! But I always love how human Adriene is - it's part of her beauty. If you want to do THE RIGHT SIDE, GO BACK TO 13:13 - that's what I did :). See you all tomorrow! Namaste.
My thoughts exactly! I've never seen her miss a second side! Still a wonderful flow, much needed!
Hate to say it, but definitely not the first time! Definitely happens at least a few times every 30-day challenge. Anyway, still a nice practice.
I took a water break and hit play and def thought I missed something lol
I thought I had dozed off for a min. when I didn't do the other side.😂
A combo of physical and mental illness keeps interfering with me getting to the mat, but I'm practicing gentleness and humility by committing to continuing each day where I left off instead of trying to push and catch up with the global schedule! Sending hugs to everyone else who is fighting a fight this month; be gentle and kind to yourself
right :) I'm not on schedule but I'm showing up and doing it a' few days behind; I like knowing that there's going to be a practice for me to do!
I am doing the same :) it's not something i can do every day physically but i'll get there in the end :)
@@laurat9748 - good attitude! Best wishes for your 2024 goals!
I only did Day 4 today, so you're ahead of me! We'll get there in the end. 👍🏻
- there's no rush really is there? we're doing it :) @@Misterpew
kinda wanna cry bc i didn't think i would actually show up after day 1, but here i am. last year, I did 2 days & talked myself out of it, but this year I am determined to finish what i started 💞 let's do thisssss!
That’s awesome!
Do it! In the moment of doubt and lazy feeling tell yourself that it's just 20 minutes and huge chunk of that time is relaxation and breathing. My golden rule is to just do 3minutes, even if I don't want to. After 3minutes I can give up, guilt free. But it's not just a cliche that the hardest part is to show up. You'll often find yourself wanting to continue after those initial 3 minutes.
We showed up people! Thank you for Day 4 Adriene! Such a pleasure to be moving and breathing consciously as a community. Thank you!
YES!!
Thank you!
day 4. i came to this year's 30 days with no expectations about my physical performance - i am here in part to renew my connection to my chronically ill body and provide it with manageable movement admist pain. i somehow managed to do chaturangas today without needing to move my knees to the floor...something i have needed to do in each chaturanga since i began yoga many years ago. i experienced some surprise at my body's capability. and maybe elation? part of me is embarrassed to be writing this comment but i sincerely hope folks who are practicing for similar reasons see this comment as a reminder that these experiences are still possible
don't feel embarrassed, it's important to celebrate small (or not so small!) wins ☺ I'm proud of you!
This is exactly what yoga is for (IMO). Incremental gains, it’s how the pyramids were built ( I think 😂)
Great job for honoring your body and continuing to show up!! You're in inspiration
Never let them tell you that something is chronic or forever. Most illnesses can be cured by fasting and diet, most importantly cutting out sugar. Look into it. I recommend watching videos with Dr. Mindy Pelz and Dr. Jason Fung, two scientists who know a lot about fasting and the latest research. When you fast, your body goes into healing mode, repairing anything that needs to be repaired in your body. I fast often, I am rarely sick (If I do get a cold once in a blue moon, it lasts for a day or two), I am 38 years old, and people think I am in my early to mid 20s. I also have more energy now than I had in my 20s when I wasn't fasting. Worth giving it a try.
That's amazing! I'm still doing chaturangas on my knees, but one of my yoga goals this year is to do one without moving my knees to the floor. Great job! You've inspired me to keep trying!
i came to the mat today with high anxiety. i almost stopped the practice because of an anxiety attack, but i let the movement guide my breathing and i calmed down. i’m really feeling the power of the practice right now. congratulations everyone, we are showing up for ourselves!!
Congrats to everyone who is still showing up on their mats on Day 4! I missed Day 2 and old me would have beat myself up over missing a day so early in the process but new me realizes perfection was never the goal and I just got back on my mat on Day 3! KEEP GOING!!!!
I love the statement that "perfection was never the goal". So true. ❤
Congrats right back at cha! :D
I am exactly the same. Doing Day 4 and Day 5 today but that’s ok too. Love you saying “Perfection is not the goal” Thank you, Namaste 🙏
@@suedarvey9221 same just did day 4 on day 5 and I feel like I will do day 5 later but if I end up being a day behind and finish the 30 days that in and of itself will be something ! here's to 'perfection is not the goal' and 'showing up as you are when you are' is !
I wasn’t sure if I could/would commit to all 30 days of this (my body has changed so much post menopause) but every morning I am reminding myself to just do my best: it’s okay that I have to rely on knees to help transition, or use my hands to help my legs into lunge position, or feeling discomfort with my changing middle. Practicing with so much self compassion and sharing this vulnerable moment in case anyone else feels the same. Thank you for this offering, YWA. 🙏
I am so proud of you for persevering
Keep it up.. You got this.
thank you for this ❤ very encouraging ❤
Oh.. I love when Benji stoically looks out the window ❤❤ He's the real zen master! Thank you for these wonderful practices for our mind and body. 🙏 ❤
Even though I'm a week behind, I'm so happy to be moving and day 4 is exactly what I need right now. I am happy that I feel the peace within myself even though I am behind. Already looking forward to doing day 5 tonight. A real shoutout to everyone who heat that fire within themselves. Have a beautiful day!
Me too ☺️
I’m only on day 4 today! I remember during another 30 day yoga journey (I think it was Dedicate??) that your 30 days could be over a month or a couple of months or a year. And that was super reassuring ❤
BENJI WATCH DAY 4: Benji started off at the top of the map. Then moved to the rear window by the gold potted plant. Something got his attention to get on the windowsill and lay up there for the rest of the session. BIG CHILLIN'
I watch Benji too.
I am here for this!😂
Kiddo woke up halfway through, so I finished the practice accompanied by Gabby's dollhouse. 😅 I find the greatest learning process is accepting where I am now, not several years doing yoga down the path. I am not as flexible or as strong as I would like to be, and that's fine. I'm allowed. See you all tomorrow! ❤️
I did mine the other night with my toddler asleep on the couch because he woke up halfway through my practice at 930pm and wanted to be in my bed with me. I said we could do that but I had to finish yoga first. I was doing my session my candlelight anyway, so still calming for him. Glad I am not the only one with a little buddy along for the ride 😂
I do mine with my toddler climbing all over me. I’m his jungle gym! It’s kinda fun
HAHA i did day three with my tot climbing all over me. She gets to do Cosmic Kids yoga after me!
Oh, there was a ton of acceptance going on here... I find lunges hilariously hard. Just impossibly hard.
My granddaughter who's 4 is obsessed with Gabbys Playhouse. She loves doing yoga with me. I wish I had practiced yoga when her mother my daughter was a little.
I am behind and went to the comment section to see if I missed something when one of the sequences was only done on one side and then I casually just sorted the comments by "Newest first" and am happy to see that I am not alone doing Day 4 when it's really Day 11. We've got this! 💛
Taking On This challenge again since I didn't finish last month. At least time it's not quite as tough. Went pretty fast. Felt like I might have even burned more calories. Who else does yoga in their PJs? Love it. Who else is trying to take on this challenge again in February?
I started again this week, 😁 but I'm an evening kind of Yoga person... ❤️🙏🐱🇵🇷
omg im trying to pick up where i left off too!
Movement IS medicine! In finding my way back to that over the past year, I've reminded myself over and over: Body wants to move. The brain sometimes thinks it doesn't, but always, always... body wants to move. Some practices have been easier than others, but I've never, never regretted showing up on the mat. Body wants to move. And it really enjoyed moving today - brain too! Movement is medicine. Thanks so much as always Adriene, and the 6000 people in this lovely community that I practised with today! Incredible!
I'm so with you on this! All that you shared so vulnerably. Yay us for listening more to our bodies and let the brain have it's say and we're moving anyways!
I didn't have a great start of the day today and after half of the practice I wanted to quit - but then I looked into the comments, saw all the nice people and all the nice words and it motived me to finish the session! 😊 Thank you all! Greetings from Germany! ❤
It's awesome that you persevered! Yay for you!💐💐💐
Yay you! 🤗
Benji sitting in the window is the cutest thing ever ❤ thank you so much for the videos!
I skipped yoga this morning and was about to make dinner and thought just after listening to some positive affirmations why not check in with Adriene. So glad I did!
I am a bit behind and was getting a bit down about myself but seeing how many of us are taking at our own paces, really made me e feel better! Love that we’re all moving together, in our own ways. 😊
I began my morning with this wonderful practice. I took someone’s advice to note the views before and after my practice. I practiced with 10,000 people! What a community. I’m so excited to be on track with Day 4 - beginning to really crave the practice. Have a wonderful day everyone!
I wondered how people knew how many people were practicing at the same time 😅 Thanks for your comment ❤ I'll definitely check it tomorrow!
Thank you for that. I will check it out too from now on
Oh good idea! I’m gonna take note of that tomorrow!
That's awesom! I used to like to look at those numbers, but haven't been able to find them lately on my KZhead screen.
@@mnktfn same!
So energising for a 6am morning practice but we missed the right side in the sequence! Had to go back and redo it to feel properly balanced 😂🧘🏻♀️
same 😂
I noticed it too but then I found myself already in Shavasana and it was too late 🙈 I hope my day won't be too out of balance 😅
feels weird
@@fredi7611 Once you are in Shavasana there’s no going back 😅🤣
samesies
My 12 year old daughter and I love yoga with Adriene! She has been getting up at 5:30 in the morning with me for going on 2 years now, but we had fallen off the wagon a little bit this winter. We decided to do this series starting February first and try to stick with it. Even with all that prior yoga practice, it feels like a welcome challenge to show up every day; I really feel the difference in my body already on day 4. And I love that the videos are pretty consistent in length; it makes it so much easier to fit in our routine!
After being with everyone on the first 3 days, unfortunately my mental health blocked me from continuing. Today, I decided that even if all I did was sit on this mat- that’s a victory for me. Thank you, Adriene, for getting me moving and actually completing this flow. I don’t know what tomorrow will bring, but progress is not linear. Be kind to yourself ❤
I did NOT want to get up out of bed and do this. I was very grumpy, and even more grumpy when it went right into moving -lol. However, as things went I found that melt away and by the end of this, I am quite happy I did it. My entire mood seems to have reset and it feels good. Thank you!!!
Yesss!
I love the fact that Benji is lying on your mat just as my dog Roxy is lying on my mat and I wondered how many other dogs are settling down to their 30 days of yoga. Thank you sweet Adriene for this lovely present. :-)))
1 dog, 3 cats here
Love that these videos are around 20 mins
This is the *first* time ever that I have done that thing of going from sitting up on the mat to sllllowly rolling down to a lying down position without at some point losing control and falling down for the last bit. The first time ever!!
Good morning everyone! We have blue skies here today in Donegal and I can see the water from my window which inspires my waves of breath. Wishing you all a lovely day of movement 💛.
Blue skies down here in Offaly too! Wishing you a wonderful rest of your day 🙏
@@aoiseodwyer thank you!
Greetings from county Clare 😍
Hello from Waterford too
And Cork !😊
🎉 Thank you so much Adriene for doing a 30-day series for the 10th time! I feel very lucky to be able to participate and share this with so many people!
I don’t know about you all, friends, but each day gets better and better! Thank you for practicing with me today. I’m deeply grateful for this shared experience! ❤
ditto!
Appreciative of the amount of "plank-age" so far in this series~Thanks Adriene!
Yes! Our cores are going to be SO TONED by the end!
Day 4: Movement. ‘Movement is medicine’. I woke up feeling quite stagnant in the body and… just stuck, so today’s practice was a much needed one. Moving the body, taking up space and stretching was just gold today. Thank you, see you all tomorrow ♥️
I can’t tell you how much this practice is meaning to me right now. I broke my foot 6 months ago and this series has been therapy for both my foot and my spirit. Am so grateful to Adriene and this community ❤
Wondering if anyone else started this mid April 2024? :) Things are additionally challenging over here lately, and the daily Flow practice feels like a touch tree for me (side note - I've never written comments on KZhead before). Sending love to anyone who's reading this now. Adriene, just in case you ever have a tiny drop of doubt, know that what you do truly matters and helps humans be (better) humans and thus make the world a better place
Yes, I did, too! 🤗 I definitely feel you, things are pretty intense right now. And just like you I felt the need to have a grounding and anchoring practice everyday 🙏🏼 My heart goes out to you and everyone who’s feeling this 💗
@@echterrosenquarz9443 ohh how sweet to get a reply here! I didn't expect that
Challenge has been going amazing and today I’m looking at this video like it’s an impossible mountain to climb… Going on my daily walk was already tough. Going to rest for now and see if my bones feel available in the evening… and if I fall behind, I’ll just be a little behind you all still cheering you on. 💖 Feels weird to share this but I know there were months, years even, that I wouldn’t have been able to get to Day 3… As a recovering perfectionist, I hope we can all show up imperfectly and keep going either way. Rooting for you all! Much love!!
I think this is really beautiful!
Today your movement helped me along. I was curled up in bed, not wanting to do anything. Hiding in my own loneliness and in the random business of life. I didn't want to move. But your video came on, and that was enough to get me onto the mat for a little bit of break from my self-criticisms. Thank you.
"Exquisite stillness" is hard to come by these days as a parent of 3 young kids. While mine only lasted 13.6 seconds, it was the most glorious seconds of my life.
THis is her BEST 30 day series yet!
Day 4 ✅ 2nd time around. Amazing practice!! Namaste everyone!! ❤😁🇵🇷🙏❤️🐱
I'm doing the calendar at my own pace this year, so just finished day 4 on January 16. One of my new years resolutions was to commit to small daily acts of love - and so, (I never make KZhead comments!) but I want to express my deep gratitude for the YWA community seeing me through many challenges over the past 4 years or so. I hope if you're reading this you can take it as a sign that you're known and loved, and that you matter, even to the people you'll never meet! Namaste.
Thank you ❤
Shoutout to everyone going. You're not behind... you're where you need to be.
Keep flowing and moving gently but steady. Thanks and lots of love, Adriene and sweet Benji and all ❤❤❤Namaste 🙏
I'm worried about the snow storm coming tomorrow. I'm worried about the conversation with my boss yesterday. Thanks to Adriene and the 10,000 yogis I just practiced with for helping me stay in today for a moment.
you got this!
Sending healing energy
Got here for morning practice, yay! Really good starting the day with some movements! Thank you to the 2000-something people practicing with me, and to Adriene and Benji, of course! Namaste 🙏❤
You’re welcome!! (I feel exactly the same gratitude to all the other yogis doing this “with” me!
I started paying attention to this as well, 9000+ people with me this morning. Makes me feel like part of a larger community
Day 4, January 28th. Started late but keep moving in my own pace. Notice the lack of sequence on the right side, did it after the video. Feel great to be with all you guys❤ Keep moving thankfully with Adriene and Benji❤ Lots of love and support ❤️ 💖 💕 Namaste
Adrienne, thank You for this beautiful session!💖💖💖
Heyaa! Stopped after day three so I'm back now :) Excited more than ever. No need for perfection, just seeking for peace
Hello all- Today's practice was the most challenging for me, thus far. I was sore from yesterday and had a tough time with some of the positions, as well as being able to keep up with changing from one to another. Also, my big toes hardly bend backwards, so they're the only ones that were touching the mat on that "pinky toe" part 😀 I completed the practice as best I could and look forward to tomorrow.
Same here, today was a tough one for me so I spent a little more time in child's pose than down dog.
This one was really tough for me as well and it’s really encouraging to hear I’m not the only one having trouble! I’m very proud that we continue anyways ❤
Thank you Adrienne for being such an amazing amazing guide and trainer. I think you're the only yoga instructor who talks to your class as you go along and don't rely on a background recording. And that really helps us to connect with you and truly enjoy each session of practise! Thank you for being you x
Flow feels good. Keep moving. Thanks ❤❤❤ Lots of love❤❤❤ Namaste 🙏 See you tomorrow ❤ have a good time!
Doing Day 4 few days behind on Jan. 8, life happened but here I am back on the mat! After doing the seated rotated movement, I loved it so much- that I decided to finish the right-side warrior so I'd do it again! 🎉
Day 4! I feel like a student of a big idea, that even bigger than me and it's absolutely beautiful. Today I really feel the structure of every other lesson - it's like a key to the next door! Such a magical feeling to be in that journey, thank you!
I almost missed todays yoga because of backpain. But because I love doing yoga with Adriene and i know the yoga is good for my back- I did it anyway.. And feeling rejuvenated now, both body and energy body. Thankyou for this 30-day challenge. To really notise; doing yoga is better for my back-than not doing yoga . Sending you my appreciation Adriene
I lost my cat earlier today, and just finished my practice at 11 PM here in Portland, Oregon. I cried during the first half of the session and in bursts throughout the second. I don't know how to continue but thank you you for being a constant in this time of vengeful chaos, grief, and despair.
Sorry to hear what you're going through. Glad you showed up in the way you could. See you tomorrow.
I'm so sorry for your loss. I've been there, and it's awful. I hope you find peace in good memories and photos. 😢
Today is January 15th but I’m on day 4. It really is worth it not skipping any video in this 30 day challenge, even if that means falling a little behind
me too!☺
Today in Savasana I was able to let some emotions I was holding onto go! I cried a little and now feel like a weight has been lifted off my shoulders. Also super proud of myself for getting in this practice in the morning before my family woke up!!! Great way to start my day!
Love this. Thank you for sharing ❤
I made it to todays practice yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay. I'm so happy with todays practice and I'm looking forward to what this journey will give me when I'm done. lots of love to you dear🤍
Almost forgot it wasn't live and started to say "wait, you forgot knee to nose on the right side" ;) happy to say I completed day four along with about 3800 people tonight. Later than usual as I almost forgot! glad I still came and completed it :)
I was thinking the same thing but.... but will forgive her... I just did a quick loop to finish on the left side
Really struggled to get out of bed and onto the mat this morning and I am so glad I did. Feeling energised.
Good morning everyone! I always have a quick preview of the video just to see what's ahead... And to look at Benji shenanigans that I would miss while practicing, of course 🤩
I do the same just the other way around 😅 First practice then rewiew it just for Benji 🥰
That's actually not a bad idea, it makes it easier to follow.
@@annetteknape1090 it also prepares me mentally so I know whether it will be an easy, calming practice or if I need to roll my sleeves up for a more intense one. Takes away the element of surprise but makes things easier, yes
With this one for example I'm already prepared for the fact that the right side of the last sequence is missing, so I'll know to stop and repeat it on the right 😅
Hi all from Cape Town. It's so lovely doing yoga with everyone around the world at the same time. I can literally feel the collective energy. Thank you Adriene, it's all because of you. 🥰
I was just in Cape Town! Can’t wait to return. It truly is inspiring to be doing this with so many!
doing this series at my own pace this year. thank you adriene for always being there when i can meet you. looking forward to this one ❤
Missed a day but will be doing today’s practice (Day 5) in the evening to catch up. And I just love the outro with Benji!❤❤❤
Yeah! We made it to day 4! And I got to practice with 4,000 other yogis! Namaste Adriene and Benji!
Really enjoyed this! I always forget to check the numbers to see how many practiced with me but am guessing at 8am UK time, there were quite a bunch of us! 💞
Far from my first Adriene video, but the first time I'm following along with one of the yoga journeys in 'real time'. Something about making it to Day 4, proving to myself that I can make a commitment to my own mental and physical wellbeing beyond one or two days (a huge struggle in the latter half of 2023), has inspired me to make a comment, and state my intention of following along for the full journey, with Adriene, Benji and this beautiful community of people doing the same!
What is 'real time"? and how does one do that?
It’s the 14th January and I’m on Day 4… started a little late but as always, loving the journey. These 20 mins every morning make a huge difference to my whole day. Gratitude
Loved this, even though I can’t (yet) sit cross legged and bend forwards across my knees! Onwards and upwards 😊 Namaste 🙏🏻 😊
So inspired by all the comments, and folks' sharing their challenges. We made it to day 4 - hurrah!💐
Thank you for another amazing day of yoga! Determined to complete all 30 days, no matter how long it takes
I am looking at Benji again, he is perfection. Also this movement was wonderful and a nice flow. Saving this one for repeating. Namaste.
Such a lovely practice!! I went back and did the right hand side too 😂😂 Thankyou so much, Adriene. Loved it! xxx
A beautiful flow! As someone who is just getting back into yoga, I feel so grateful to have found this beautiful channel, and this beautiful community. Even in the hard times I can hear Adriene's voice telling me to tell myself that I am strong. Thank you so much! One love, and happy day 4 everyone!! Namaste
Loved this practice today! I feel myself getting stronger already! Thank you, Adriene! 🙏
Y’all enjoy the rest of your 30 days. I’m flowing onto yoga practice more suited to my ability. This flow is beyond my capabilities and I don’t like how I feel during and after. When I get more advanced, I may come back next year. Thank you, Adriene for making this practice available. Namaste.
If I may... whether doing a practise in person or online the 'yoga teacher' is a guide and we get to listen to our bodies. While I can do most things or used to be able to getting confidence after multiple injuries over the last 5 years... I find even if I just do what I can and lie in shivasana or seated breathing and just listening to Adriene calming voice and feeling into my bodies cells that this is available to me is totally a more than OK way to show up to the mat. Just wanted to share that with you in case you might want to keep coming and hang out anyways doing what you can for now. honour whatever you choose. namaste
@@intuitivewellnessrituals Thank you for sharing your perspective. I respect it. I'm feeling more defeated than peaceful after my time on the mat. I think I could find a yoga session that meets me at my ability so that I feel at peace at the end of it. Maybe even with Adriene as a teacher since she has so many to choose from. I will still show up at the mat, just not this particular flow. Thank you, sincerely for taking time to respond.
“The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.” Love this quote! Just what I needed to hear right now. And I can’t wait for Day 4… see you in the morning 😊
It seems that nothing happens until something moves, right?! Every morning, between 5:30 and 6:00, I make time for myself, and yoga has become a part of my daily routine. The movement gives me the energy to tackle the day and keep going. Day 4 is done! Now let's move on to the next step😁 Namaste✨💖
I couldn’t agree more! Namaste 🙏🏽
This would be the very first practice of Adriene where we have non-synchronous movements on both sides. Embracing it all with her❤
Day 4 done ❤ almost teared up at the end with the realization that we only have one body and one life - how precious that is and we forget it most of the time.
Rising early before anyone else is awake in the family.. love this early morning yoga with Adriene and all of you! Thank you for sharing your energy. Wishing you all a day of expansive breathe, movement and flow in your energy.
Day - 4 let's gooo ✨Vinyasa Flow✨ Thank you for this amazing experience, Adriene! Thanks to our little friend Benji for the company every time and every day! 🤗💖 Namaste 🙏🏼
Day 4! (I started the journey a day late) but super grateful to be here and join everyone. Glad to also know I’m not the only one who went back to the right side plank-crunch-warrior sequence to even myself out! Thank you Adriene for another wonderful practice❤🙏🏼 namaste ✨
It took me years to understand that less and consistent is better then more movement and rarely done. I usually have this desire to kick ass and run, go to the gym or do yoga for more than an hour and then only to see me the next day tired and without any will to do sports...and then I beat myself for noy doing any sports,emotionally eat ,gain weight and be dissapointed , loose confidence in me and stay in sedentary mode. 10-20 minutes daily of whatever movement is just what I need until I get my good habits on track.
Thank you all for showing up! See you tomorrow ❤
Came here to say exactly the same 🙌 see you tomorrow!
See you tomorrow:)
It’s January 26th and I’m on day 4 having started in the last 10 days… These 30 day challenges can be very intimidating to jump on, here’s to starting (even if later was your best)!
I am so in love with this practice, Thank you
Benji looking through the window was adorable ❤Thank you!
