Hello my friends! How are you feeling today?
Awesome !! Feel great after a run and this practice 💖And you ?
I appreciate you and all of your wonderful videos, this one came at the perfect time, I have been having an issue with my upper back, thank you for sharing...it was very helpful.💚
Bright breezy day here. Swept the front and back yards in the winter sun. Appreciated the fresh air and hearing the birds singing. Lovely little yoga practice for a Sunday. Have a beautiful day 😊💕💓💕
Literally just used your front cover photo to stretch out my neck, and it immediately popped😊 feeling way much better, especially after i just shoveled my mountain-covered sidewalk😂 thank you for your help! I liked the rest of your video!
Grateful to have this practice as I carry most of my stress and aches in my shoulders and neck 💕
I’ve had neck issues for years and also did daily PT. I would have extreme neck pain and burning twice a week for over a decade. I’ve used Biofreeze and Salonpas Patches for relief. My BFF sent me this video on a whim. Since practicing yoga using the video every morning, my neck pain is nearly diminished. It’s truly been life changing. Typically, I don’t post comments, but I wanted to thank Adrienne for changing the quality of my life.
Me as well.
Same.
Dave’s wife here. I have always worked my upper body to extremes lifting pulling grabbing etc..! I use proper body mechanics but always have tightness and discomfort in my wrists shoulders and hands. I seek relief from daily yoga and jacuzzi therapy. This video was the most relief for that upper body tightness and the pinching muscles feeling. Adrianne helps me to be more fluid. 🙏🏻❤️🧘♀️ ALWAYS FEELING THE LOVE HERE
I'm so happy for you Caresse!♡
Caresse - I suffer from the same neck issues as you and just found this video. Your comment has inspired me to start my day with this as well. I hope I find the same relief that you did. Take care :)
Wow... that was my first time ever doing yoga stuff. It felt really good... I’m kinda shaking now lol my name is Joseph, I’m a disabled Iraq war veteran a father of two and coming on two years since my wife passed away. I’ve been in a very dark place to say the least. I’m slowly coming out of it and have been looking for natural was to deal with all my physical and emotional pain. So happy to have found you sharing your knowledge of yoga, I could never afford to have a private lesson. I will be doing a lot of your lessons that deal with weight, back and neck pain to start with . Thank you again, I really enjoyed it. Keep up the amazing job 💜
so much love to you for sharing us with this brother. I cannot comprehend the loss, but know you are respected and loved.
You can also check out Ayahuasca:)
Your comment made me tear up, thank you for your service. Sending you Prayers from Texas!
Joseph, thank you for sharing your story and thank you for your service to our country. I am so sorry for the death of your wife. I hope that you find peace and joy no matter what direction your healing takes you.
Texas Laulie Thank you 🙏
After four years of practice, I get this beautiful feeling of visiting a friend everytime I roll my mat and hear Adriene's voice.
Beautiful
Here for the EXHALE calendar 2024 ! Who else ? It feels so good to have a soft practice at the beginning of a very long day coming up ❤
Me!❤
Me too!
years old morning routine!
One of my favorite bed-time rituals is rotating my neck round and round, a soundtrack of cricks and cracks following from my joints, and murmuring "daily neck hygiene is soooooo important" while my husband watches, terrified.
Every expert medical resource I've ever come across on neck and spine health states this as the most important thing to NEVER do. Might want to look into it for yourself. I skip this part of the video and do safer neck stretches instead.
lol
@@Dr.T-Bomb umm, good to know
@@Dr.T-Bomb I'm pretty sure the stretches you're referring to are neck rolls, where you roll your head horizontally across your neck (i.e. chin touching chest, shoulder, back of head touching back, shoulder), if I'm not mistaken. Adriene's "rolls" are vertical, meaning if you don't overdo it, it shouldn't cause the hyperextension in the neck that should be avoided. If you're however referring to something else, I'd love to know!
@@mariekejee18 Thanks for the informative reply! I haven't seen it narrowed down that much. The typical explanation I've come across is that any combination of rolling and bending/flexion/extension of the neck compromises the C-spine and will significantly increase wear on those delicate joints. Intuitively it makes sense-there is such a high degree of mobility in that part of the spine that it would be more susceptible to repetitive wear in loaded and stretched positions (and rolling the head is basically just grinding away at these joints). Whether all of that has been proven beyond doubt in epidemiological and controlled studies I wouldn't know and I'm not about to dig into all the literature to check-happy to defer to the experts on this one. Just wanted to make a PSA for those that would like to check for themselves.
She‘s like the bob ross of yoga ❤️
I was thinking exactly the same...
Omg...yes. 🤣🤣👍👍👍
Yes!
I just discovered Bob Ross Joy of Painting on BBC 4, I agree, both make you feel happy and relaxed ❤️😊
wow that is the best compliment ever, and also very true!
Day 32 of yoga❤ this is my attemp to turn yoga into a habit like brushing my teeth before bed, or applying sunscreen before going outside ✨it looks like it is working! so glad💕🥹
Yeeeaaah !!😀😀Good luck on your way!!🥰💪💪
Same here !! We're doing great ❤❤
I didn't realize it has already been 10mins. Thank you for this 🥰
Time flies when you enjoy what you do🥰🥰🥰
Babe...
Anyting for old lady can do. Who had forearm surgery and.
Loved this.
Same❤
This is going to sound so silly, but I started crying in the middle of the video and had to pause. My neck has been a huge issue for weeks, I even had to have someone come in and take over my shift at work because I strained it which made it worse on top of that and I had to literally just lay in bed for a few days. I hadn't done your videos in a while and started doing them again last Monday. Today, in the middle of yoga, I realize my neck didn't hurt for the first time in about three weeks and most likely it's thanks to getting back to stretching with your videos every morning. Just goes to show that this is a must do for everyone. It helps you from straining your body throughout the day by even the simplest of movements which is what happens to me all the time. Time to go back to telling people Im busy in the morning doing sessions with my trainer. You're doing awesome work. ♥
So great. I have chronic neck pain too and this video really helped me. I don't know if you've been through something like whiplash, which is what happened to me. Even low-speed collisions (30mph or less) can cause a lot of damage ... for me, the pain has been life altering, so I feel you, my friend!! Yoga helps me a ton, but I really have to use caution ... but I also find neck stabilization exercises to be super helpful. Also grateful for the relief in this video, Adriene!! Namaste
Not silly at all, thanks for sharing! Makes sense that as we release tension through these practices, feelings well up. It is a beautiful thing and you're not alone!
It's not silly. A friend of mine is a yoga instructor and she has been recommending to me that I do yoga to help my heart and my body. I can't afford yoga classes right now, so I decided to search for a nice yoga video to help with my neck and back pain (I'm a server/bartender lots of work on my feet). I started tearing up in the middle of this very simple short video and a little afterwards too. I instantly felt relief in my body after this, and I will definitely continue to watch her videos. They seem really straight forward, easy to follow without any extra vlogger nonsense, and her voice is really soothing. Thank you Adriene.
Nathan, have you ever had craniosacral massage therapy? It can be incredibly helpful for the kind of pain you described. Also eating high alkaline foods can reduce inflammatory pain. Perhaps look up both of these approaches. I hope it helps. I used to live with chronic pain.
That's not silly at all. That's the secret point of yoga. Congrats on being so advanced!
Anyone else here for day 3 of BRIDGE having just finished BREATH? Let's keep this train rollin"! X
Yess!!!
I am here... Building that bridge
Here again, yes!
Namaste Sophie!
Absolutely!
I suffer from chronic migraines and while I’m doing these stretches I’m feeling so much relief. No amount of medicine has the power to actually help, yet this 10 min video took so much of my pain away. it’s incredible!! 🧡✨
Crazy you just have the same experience I have. I feel incredibly tensed and have chronic headache since 1 month et this video is crazy, I feel so good ! This + fraser wilson’s mobility videos help me get so much better
@@youngab3664 I’ve never heard of him but I’ll have to check it out! I have another migraine today :( hoping your pain gets better soon! ❤
I get migraines a few times a year and have since I was 18. Loss of vision, vomiting, and in bed the entire day. I always assumed it was my shoulders because I get massive knots on them. After doing this for a week everything seems less blurry. Hope this gets rid of them.
YAS! I'm doing this every time when I have a migraine. I get terrible tension in my shoulders and neck, this is just perfect. Instant pain relief.
I am definitely adopting this routine for every day
EXHALE 🧘♀ | March 2, 2024 | Part 2 - I had a lovely massage yesterday and so I thought I might not have as much tension as usual, but this was still so 👌 I'd like to petition that this practice makes it on every calendar, it is so effective! 🙏
When I feel a tension migraine coming on...I immediately do this and wow...you have saved many days of pain for me!
Good to know that it can help with headaches! Thanks
Me too! So grateful for your sessions Adriene.
I cant sit down on the floor cause of my knee pain
@@MissNamaSlay yes your whole body is tensed so the pain actually starts from your back and goes up your head thats what i was told, i noticed as well my hips get tensed too lol
Jacintha Dsouza my partner does this on the edge of a chair
Sitting on the mat, I was struck by sorrow. In these times of solitude, Adriene is actually the person I see the most. I wake up to her voice every morning. I go to her when I am desperate for relief, and whether I'm feeling joy or pain. She has become so important in the lives of so many. I mourn, in a bittersweet way, that we can't all link hands and extend this love fully to one another. We go through our experience alone. It's sad, but it's also a wonderful mystery, life is. When I lay on my mat, I can feel the weight of my body pulling down and the support of the floor taking up that weight, sending it back to me. I notice the places I am tense and where I'm at ease. I feel my chest expand with breath. Miraculously, I'm alive :) And I know that others also bear the weight, the counterweight, the expansion, the contraction, the pain, the pleasure, and everything else. I'm grateful for many reasons to Adriene: teacher, friend, and mother of this community.
This is literally like my thoughts and feelings finally put into words. I just discovered her and I’m in severe pain and can’t wait to do this !
@@makenziemoore2424 Wishing the best for you!! Truly. I started doing yoga a few months ago to add some structure and self-love to my mornings, and I hoped it would also help with some chronic back pain. It did both and more! The healing and empowering of yoga such a thing to experience!!
Wow that was amazing , u should be an author !
I agree with so much of what you said. She is the Bob Marley of yoga:)
I feel exactly like you said, same thought!
These shorter and lighter stretches are always nice. By the end, I usually keep going with my own movement!
Me too once I’m on the mat it’s nice to let the body lead.
I hold all my tension in my neck and shoulders and I always have to come back to this video to realise that and undo it. It works magic every time. Even knowing the exercises by now, doing it with Adriene's ASMR-quality voice and her reminders to take my time are the only way to really get the stretches right. Thanks for changing so many people's lives with this! I don't know what I did beforehand.
Wow I mean, I’m kind of shocked of how bad I was feeling 10 minutes ago and how relaxed and happy I am right now. Plus my back and shoulders hurt sooo much less Thank you so much for this amazing exercises!
Saaaame
I’ve been doing this daily. It’s unreal how perfectly it works.
Best neck exercises video on KZhead. Works every time :)
Seriously I was not expecting to actually feel better with only 10 minutes.
Feel so much better too 😁
Same! I do this exercise everytime now I am suffering and it is just amazing! Thanks so much Adrienne for this video! It saved me!
Agreed. This is really helpful
AGREED! 🙌🏽❤
14 Feb 2023 - squeezed in this little ditty of self-love, 2nd practice for today, my treat to myself on Valentine's Day 💕💕 See you tomorrow.
Wow. I literally woke up with a crick in my neck. Thankful for this practice. Anybody else just love "thread the needle"? The name, the stretch, the feel? Here's hoping the groundhog sees his shadow and that we feel the light of The Son today. February 2023. Align Day 2. Done💜.
Where are my BRIDGE people at? Day 3!Another amazing, refreshing and lovely practice! Namaste💗
Here's one!
Let's build this bridge! Namaste Andrea!
Here!
Day 3 for me!! woohoooo.
well hi there!
Opening my laptop to do my daily YWA, there was a button calling for computer update. I pushed it, and of course, the machine went black for a loooong time... But then, sitting on my mat, I just started. Breathing, "hearing" Adriene voice inside my head. I did all the tings I remembered, and for the first time I managed to do a yoga session all by my myself! Proud! I have been doing daily yoga for 2,5 years, and today I realized I really have a vocabulary internalized. Although I prefer doing yoga with the videos, this was a nice experience. Thank you Adriene, for the beautiful BREATH series, and for being a wonderful guide, a supportive friend and a daily inspiration! Wishing you all the best! Love from Norway!
Whos merc - respectfully, I'm not sure that there was any need for the tone of your comment. The reason for the black screen isn't the point. It provided an opportunity and Kristin found that she's learned more than she realised, and can practice without guidance. That's an awesome part of the journey.
@@cherylb787 you’re right! Thank you!
I love this!! Isn’t it so amazing how we absorb these practices? Congratulations on your next steps! Love to Norway from the U.S ❤️🧘🏻♀️
WELCOME to MARCH 2024 EXHALE - yay! Love the theme alrdy .... w gratitude + thanks always so lovely for this revisit - 10mins of gold - namaste to all practising and may find ease
Thank you! Doing the Feb 2023 Align playlist. Hello to anyone else doing it! Xx
I’m a dental hygienist and my neck and shoulders are killing me. I searched on line for neck/shoulder stretching. This video popped up. This was my first yoga experience. I did exactly what you said to do and no joke. The pain is gone. I’m thinking of doing yoga daily now.
I must have something else because it didnt work for me. I am plagued with neck pain most days, and it can stay for many days in a row. (Of course it triggers headaches so everything above the shoulders hurr, jaws, eyes, whole head, whole neck.) I have to sleep a certain way or else. I have to sit a certain way. Cant skip meal or not drink enough else headache. I massage. Put a hot pad. (Headche pills usually dont work either) Right now it's so bad on my left side only. Nothing works and I know it can last all night too, until waking up with it the next morning. I saw someone who tested my neck, nothing wrong there my movement and jaw seems ok according to him. It controls my life along with other health stuff I have. I cant sit on my couch and lay the back of my head (not the neck) on something, because after 2 minutes it's uncomfortable.
@@FocusedFighter777 sorry to hear that. My pain is triggered by stress. Any updates ?
@@FocusedFighter777try correcting your posture too .. like holding a mobile in hand and endless scrolling also adds to the strain ..
a little does go a long way. I've been feeling stressed and depressed lately and a few minutes of self care through yoga has really bolstered me. I'm feeling much more peaceful
This actually works people. It really does. I can promise if you do this everyday for a week you will amazed with how you loosen up.
I’ve been doing yoga on and off for years, but Adriene has now become my yoga instructor thanks to her videos (with support from Benji of course!). If you’re looking for someone to guide you through daily practice, I couldn’t recommend this channel more! Thank you for all the great work!
Perfect quickie for an area that we usually torture without even knowing with bad daily postures! Hugs and love to everyone taking time to care for themselves! ♥️🙏🏼
🙏💜
Yep great after carrying the groceries home x
That's sweet! ❤️🙏🏻
Align 2023 - Day 2 ✅🥳 big shout out all the yogis still showing up… ❤
Exhale 2024 day 2 in the books. Grateful for some short practices today and release of tension held in my neck & shoulders after a stressful day yesterday with one of my doxies having an allergic reaction. She’s good now but it had me worried as she’s never done that before. ❤🐶
I'm glad she's okay 😊
Hi yoga family, here with you following centre in Jan, Align for Feb. We rock ❤❤
This is the best stretch I’ve ever had. I honestly haven’t felt this good in a long time. I’ve used these videos for 4 days in a row and my upper body feels so relieved and relaxed. Thank you so much for these videos
hurray for align, feb 2023. took a day off yesterday, but this morning i did yesterday’s practice before work, and this one was just too tempting. couldn’t not do it after work today.
At one point I can hear Adrienne's heartbeat and I really love that for some reason. She's like the ASMR OG or something. But with heartbeats and deep breaths.
Following this video regularly has literally relieved all of the neck pain i get from sitting at a desk all day. Thank you so much Adriene!
Starting with day two of the cale dar as I just finished Center yesterday. Who is here from that 30-day challenge? I am looking forward to seeing all my regular yoga mat friends again. Align day 2. 851 days in a row Back on day 14! 863 days in a row.
Hiii William, I’m looking forward to seeing you again as well, keep it up 👏🏼🤍 not so far from 1k days!! 🤩
Wow 851 days!! Amazing! I’m here from Center too, see you tomorrow :)
Here from centre too, nice to hear that people still continuing
Hey buddy. Great to see you again. Center was delicious and beautiful for me. Hope you enjoyed it too and that you’re doing well 💜
Hi everyone!👋
Day 2 of Align. Thankful to be here no matter how hard it might be 🙏💞
Blessed Beloved LouBlou! I am too thrilled to have scrolled down and see your face. Long time no talk to. How are you doing? Did you participate in Center? Best wishes! 🦋♥️🦋
@@zuriwilson-seymore8939 oh there you are! I missed your beautiful presence so much 💞 I am still struggling to recover and it is taking me much longer than anticipated so I only managed a couple of days of Center. Not helped by events just before Christmas. I lost my best friend unexpectedly and was made redundant so it's been a tough time but hopefully coming back to the mat will give me some focus 🙏 How are things with you? Xx
@LouBLou Yes, I'm here, my beloved yogi friend. Aww, pace yourself. It will take time to heal. Be kind to your body. Consume lots of healthy nutrients. Are you familiar with the herb 🌿 sorrel? It's great in fiber and the immune system. My mother, as you already know, is a cancer survivor, and she consumed plenty of sorrel juice during recovery. Juicing will help you. I am well. I just completed a 30-day food fast, and I am on the tale end of a cold. Please accept my deepest condolences regarding your best friends elevation. Do you mind sharing what happened? Keep your head up! 🦋❤️❤️🦋🙏🏿🤗💐
@@zuriwilson-seymore8939 oh no I hope you see that cold off quickly. I will look into sorrel when I can but atm I'm still primarily tube feeding so am limited to what I can consume. My friend was who I cared for that was quadriplegic and sadly he was let down by the medical system. He had been complaining for almost 2 years of feeling like something was stuck in the back of his throat and so we'd spent that time trying to persuade them to put a camera down as he felt it was a physical thing. They just kept telling him to eat soft foods. Unfortunately, I hadn't been there to chase it up so I don't know what happened with the care agency following up but I got a call around midnight one night from a and e doctor saying he was vomiting copious amounts of blood, they were suspecting internal bleeding and could I go asap as they didn't expect him to make it through the night. Devastatingly I was covid positive so unable to go and they rang an hour later to say he'd gone. The coroner concluded it was massive internal heaomarrage due to erosion of the oesophagus. The main symptom of that is pain on swallowing and feeling like something is stuck in the throat. It is also very common in someone taking the meds he was so I'm currently trying very hard to not be so angry that it slows my own recovery with the negativity. I'm trying to remind myself that everything happens for a reason, whether we know that reason or not 🙏💞
@LouBLou Happy Sunday, LouBlou! Thanks so much for the well wishes! I'm slowly 🐌, yet surely getting better. There's so much cold in my body right now. 🤧 Wow! That's a disturbing story. Please accept countless love and light! ✨️ 🙏🏿 Yes, everything happens for a reason, and the medical system definitely failed your dear friend. I do recall you talking about him all the time. It's an unfortunate truth that some doctors will ignore signs. I, too, am a victim of this medical industry as you already know my story. We must heal thy self and be proactive when we know something strange is happening to our bodies. 🙏🏿 That must be frustrating to eat from a feeding tube. Let us focus on the positive outcome of being cancer free. This challenge will pass, and energy is forever; therefore, your friend will always live in your heart. Now, he is pain-free living his best life in the next realm. Keep your head up! 🦋♥️🦋🤗
I have been a day behind since Monday, but this was the perfect practice to pair with yesterday's practice and catch up! Glad to be starting Align with you all, Day 2, February 2023 ✨
Day 2 Align, February 2023. Thank you Adriene, seriously, for all you and your gang do! Gonna join FWFG today, finally. Looking forward to watching the behind the scenes video on the making of Center. Love from 🇨🇦❄🤗🐕💐
2 Feb 2023. I think I may have said this before - this is my go-to practice for spasmodic headaches. I don't have that problem at the moment, but it's a great little ditty to do anytime. Thank you. See you tomorrow 💕
coming back to Exhale after a couple weeks of anxiety/not practicing, and it feels really good. regardless of what happened yesterday and what could happen tomorrow, I am proud of myself for showing up today
2nd February 2023. "Align" Thank you Adriene for this tension-relieving practice
Adriene: bring it onto all fours... Benji: [stands up]
Cowdogs know when it’s time to go 😂
Yoga with Adriene ~and~ Benji makes my soul so happy! ❤🐶
I love when ade stops to say "hi buddy" ALWAYS makes me smile no matter the day I'm having
I just love Benji
Day 2 of ALIGN ❤️ Being at a desk all day is not good for your neck or back! This was so good to do!
Ty day 2 completed
I'm home during the CV quarantine! It warms my heart that so many people have been helped by your videos! Thank you for being such a light in this world! I'm happy to have access to this, as well.
Same here! I've been trying to get into yoga for some time now but have been making excuses. These videos help me out a lot. :)
Same!! No excuses when we are all in at home
Same, it’s a great time to start my journey with yoga ☀️
Same here! Adriene is the best
@@melificent._7801 she truly is!
One of my favourites, I'd like to thank you Adriene for getting me through the 30 days of breath and I'd also like to thank Lotte Larsson who left a comment saying how she modified poses and that they didn't have to be perfect, this also helped me immensely and now I'm doing your February calendar! Not too bad for an old girl!
Just did this as part of the March 2024 calendar and whoa, it's only ten minutes but quite intense! I didn't realise how tense I was. This is going on the favourites list.
Namaste Adriene!
Day 2 Align Feb 2023 🍃 this practice felt so good esp right after work where i sit in front of a computer all day.
Hi Mommybread! We were practicing at the same time. Nice to meet you!😊
I come back to this one again and again. Usually for my upper back pain...but sometimes just to see Benji. He's in rare cute-form here!! 🥰
I'm 15 and I struggle with body pain, body dismorphia and terrible mental health and I decided to try yoga to end my day and this was my first session and I feel physically and mentally amazing after so ty 🙃💕
I’ve read that Yoga really helps with releasing trauma. It’s helped me and the people I love tremendously. I felt the need to comment and tell you that you are doing a great job. ❤
@@thenighttimecook8377 ty that actually just made my day 😭❤️
Coming here after doing the victorious breath video for EXHALE day 2. Thank you!
Definitely Adriene has been a life-saver for me. Literally. I went thru chemotherapy and am now geetting ready for a big OP... and doing my (almost) daily yoga is the best present i can give my body and mind .. thank you Adriene, your voice has become a real soothing medicine for me (and my dogs)!! Thaaankk u from my whole heart.. all the way from Bolivia. 🐕🦋🌻🍀
Best of luck Nicole
Day 2 Align 02.02.2023. Thanks Adriene 🙏
You were the yoga video i first watched 10 years ago. You changed my life. I am so thankful you exist.
I’ve now been telling myself for two years that I need to get back to yoga. All I do is sit at a desk and then on the couch. I’m having severe pain between my shoulder blades and desperately trying to make it go away. This is my baby step to getting back into yoga. I feel better after doing this once but I definitely have a way to go. I look forward to continuing to feel better physically and mentally.
mine too!
Me too! We can do this 💪
Adrienne is doing a 30 day yoga challenge right now (it’s on day 28 but you can start whenever). I also have a desk job which hurts my back. Try to go to gym for walks but Adrienne has changed my life in no ways that the gym can. This is my go to video whenever my neck pain flairs up. Honestly if I do this every day, it’s nearly gone. I gotta keep up with it lol. Good luck u guys got this. Yoga is life changing.
💖Goooood morning Yogis！✨
🌞ALIGN Day 2🌞 in the books wuhuu! I’ve done this practice countless of times but added a few moves today and tried to find moments where I could be a bit more intentional. Have a great day fellow yogis :))
Day 2!! Glad to see you here!! It’s hard to see how many of us from CENTER there are with all of the older comments, but it’s nice to see those too! So many lives have been changed because of Adriene’s videos! How wonderful!!! Keep it up!! Take care!
Exhale day 3🎉 my neck and shoulders needed this practice today, thank you, Adriene. 💖🧘🏼♀️🙏
It feels good to be back. I carry so much tension in my neck. This practice opened that all up.
align day 2 🍀 i haven't been as active as i wanted to be but i wanted to take time out of my day to show up. time to show up for myself and for my body's needs so i'm happy i decided that today was that day. it felt really good to do it. i felt a lot of tension and stress from the day just went away.
ALIGN 🌟 | February 2, 2023 | Small movements big sensations indeed! It's been a while since we saw this one on the calendar but boy do I love it! I admit I'm not super good about fitting in my daily neck hygiene so when it's on the calendar, all the better! Today it also helped clear something in my throat chakra which is a bonus. 🙏

@@CeciliaKautzman that's brilliant 💞 I only managed a few from January as I'm still a million miles from being myself. I've decided February is time to at least get back to the routine of showing up every day. Even if I just sit on my mat as I'm missing yoga and my ywa friends 💞

This practice has been invaluable to me- during this "stay at home" journey for all of us. Thanks so much for having this and making it accessible to everyone
I've done this one so many times, because it is brilliant. It's like a moving meditation and really helps if you sit hunched all day. Thank you!
This is one of my favorites!
@@kellyt4093 I could probably do it every day 😁
seriously felt so good after this that I got up and started singing and dancing for like 45mins before I noticed and got back to work ---really relieved all the stress and tension I was holding somehow?!! magic ---thank you
Whenever I watch your videos, it is not just yoga, it's self care. Thank youuuu💕💞
I'm a pre-med student. I ironically just sat for 13 hours to study for my anatomy physiology test, leaving my shoulders and upper back feeling as stiff as board. I found this video and it's super relaxing to do. Also I got excited when you used the anatomical terms hahahahah. The pet on screen is a big bonus!
Align day 2! Just what I needed! Thank you, Adriene and YWA community💜💜💜
thank you, thank you, thank you! 💙🙏
Perfect for today. Thankyou, Adriene xxx
You have no idea how grateful I am for this video. I have been watching this 10 minute video for years. I do hard manual construction labor, and every time my neck is hurting I watch this video and it’s amazing. This is the most powerful 10 minute neck yoga sequence. Thank you so much I am so grateful for this video
Once again. Keeping on. Aligning!
I’ve saved this one as I know it will be used frequently, a perfect practice to fit in whenever my neck and shoulders feel tight.
Yes!! I do it all the time, it really works wonders ✨
Exhale day 3🦋 Thank you Adriene and Benji🌸 Thank you everyone🌸
How beautifully connected are Adriene and Benji! As soon as she says that Benji understands daily neck hygiene, he gets up, walks to the front of the camera, stretches his neck, and lies down again. It’s like his high five to his pal Adriene! Thank you for a great video.
It doesn't take long to feel human again! Thank you Adriene xx Namaste 💟💟
Align day 2, February 2023. Done in my Bilbao hotel room. Lovely practice focusing on the neck. Great after a day of sitting in a conference.
Ah, I've just done Align day 2 and I'm also in Spain! Enjoy Bilbao, it's a great city
I love how people are really practicing from everywhere, all around the world! Hope you had a successful conference and enjoy your stay in Bilbao! 🌞
My upper back and neck have been hurting and I think its because of the way I have been sleeping. I definitely needed this today. Thank you Adriene
This has become my go to video whenever I wake up with pain in my nek/shoulders/back and it’s totally worth the 11 minutes in the morning. This stops my tension headaches and nek/back pain from becoming unbearable. Thank you!
Day 2 of Align! 🎉 I’ve actually done this practice many times before, and it’s a favorite of mine. ❤
Good morning! I woke up very, very stiff, especially in my shoulders area. I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw the title of today's practice. That's exactly what I needed. Have a beautiful day, everyone!
have a beautiful day too!! Love your profile pic btw haha
@ Thank youuuuu! (it's Moonbin from astro)
This is the very first video of YWA I did almost two years ago. 😊 That is when my journey of doing (almost) 😉 daily yoga started. And I have not looked back since. ❤ Thank you Adriene, Benji, the YWA team, and the wonderful community here.
This has been an absolute Godsend. I do this routine twice a day now and it has drastically improved my neck and shoulder discomfort. My shoulders have been locked up for months. Thank you thank you thank you. 🙏
Bridge day 3 ♥️
Girl, you just saved me $90 on a massage.🙏 Thanks Adriene!!
Hi, Adriene! I work long hours standing, so my back, shoulders, and neck are constantly stiff. Trying to stretch and loosen up- your channel is a happy find! This video is fantastic. I could follow along with my eyes closed and already feel so much better. Thank you ❤
"Find what works for you today" - I did this routine in bed, lol.
Same here!!
Just did the same 😶😍
Me too, it's a kind of practice that just works on the bed
Me too..... can't sleep in the middle of the night, neck was hurting so I did this in bed
Same
Day 33. Thanks Adriene.
Hi Adriene and Benji! I have daily chronic pain in my body. Most of all rock hard in neck and shoulders. Sometimes my very strong husband cant even get through them in massage. I will start to do this daily. You are adorbs and I wanna snuggle with Benji :)
Practicing with y'all from Greenville, South Carolina, USA. I have practiced yoga since 2002, but am recovering from a hamstring attachment injury. This 30 day challenge is a wonderful way for me to ease back in and gain some confidence! Thank you, A&B!
