Yoga with Adriene's Adriene Mishler on burnout, Benji and building a mindfullness empire | GQ Heroes

[@JP-rb1js]

One of my favorite things about her is that she doesn’t take herself too seriously. She tells jokes and sings during yoga. It’s awesome!

[@raspberryblood]

And she's not the kind of showy yoga teacher that in the end intimidates with acrobatic poses

[@lee_yuhhh]

agreed ! you can just tell how down to earth and grounded she is. no ego or arrogance whatsoever

[@Kampfstier667]

I LOVE that about her. So, so much.

[@rhacegelo3308]

[@Alex-pk7rn]

I cancelled a paid subscription yoga app because it was all show-off acrobatics clearly not designed for anyone but other show-offs, and started doing YWA. I would pay twice as much for her classes than I did for that terrible app. She makes yoga accessible for everyone from total beginners to the very experienced. There's no ego to her practice, and that's why it's so appealing.

[@isaw8195]

She’s genuinely a wonderful human being. Every morning for the last 5 years, her voice, gentle guidance, wise and funny words, as well as yoga at its best, have made a huge difference in my life and made every single day better. The ripple effect is true. Thank you so much Adriene (and Benji ! And her amazing team too) for changing my life. Gratitude is overflowing my heart ❤️ 🙏🏻 namaste

Yes absolutely Adriene saves lives. I realize every few months (after I fall off the wagon because I don't put self-care first) that I always feel better in every way when I am doing Yoga with Adriene. No other yoga is the same. Adriene's whole approach resonates with me. Thank you Adriene. And selfishly....please never stop.

[@savannahbarros8282]

Her channel has helped me climb out a depressive episode that I thought would take me out. As I'm taking her lessons, I'm reading a book by a neuroscientist called The Body Keeps the Score, and there is a whole chapter about the healing effects of yoga. I feel so so so priviledged to have access to these classes.

[@thornyrain]

Such a good book! I'd recommend it to anyone that has experience of trauma or interest in the topic.

[@peggydunn3530]

I could have written your comment Savannah Barros, finding Adriene helped me out of a very dark place at the height of isolation during the pandemic. A while ago I started thinking that all my trauma had made its way into the very fibre of my body, my DNA, and all the therapy in the world couldn’t shift it. My psychologist suggested I see a spiritual healer (kinesiologist) and also that I read The Body Keeps The Score. I’m pleased to say I’m doing really well today, hope you are too! 😊

I was so ashamed of finding myself in a physically abusive relationship. Cashed in 401k, quit job, extinguished relationship with Sons. Yoga with Adriane gave me the strength to pack a backpack and find my way home. 4 states away. I have a wonderful life. Thanks to her. I owe this Angel my life.

Adrienne has been there through so many emotions in my life. I've came to the mat crying, heartbroken, unconfident, happy, stressed, joyous, gassy 😂😂 and she'll never know! I remember finding her channel in 2012 at 22 and now here I am ten years later at 32 still doing her yoga 🧘‍♀️ 🕉 Find what feels good! 🙌

[@deb0815]

Adriene, you truly saved my life. Last year in March, I was at one of the worst places in my life. I didn't want to go any further. Back then I didn't believe in yoga, I had never even considered doing it. But one day I don't know why, but I decided to try it. My first video was the one "yoga for releasing anger". You made me feel so safe. The kind of security I was trying so desperately to find. One and a half years later, I am in a much more stable place in my life. And it all thanks to you. I am still far from being perfect, but I repeat your mantra "lots of love in, lots of love out" and things just make more sense.

[@unboredhands1914]

She gives you tools to be a best friend to yourself and that's pretty magical. With the huge catalog of videos, I know I can find something that will work with me wherever I am at the moment. Need a hug? A massage? An excuse to do nothing and breath? Someone to suggest something a little weird to get out of your head? Someone just to push you a little further? It's all there. I feel so lucky to have found this gift!!!

[@susanniceswanger7324]

I am 68 years old, Adrien has been helping me for the past year and a half. I am stronger, more flexible and confident. Thank you both!

[@carlajohnson4171]

I'm also 68 and have been doing daily yoga with Adriene for the past year and 8 months! I began right when our area went into lockdown and the yoga studio I had attended twice weekly closed. I had happened upon Adriene's videos years before, but life got in the way and I never began a practice until the pandemic kept me home. Now Adriene's steady influence in my life is so reassuring, and I love the way she teaches with more intention than the fast flow classes held locally. I love her holistic attitude - running through all the reminders of which body areas to focus on during each pose. The way she varies the targeted body areas keeps me from feeling sore or overwhelmed or too challenged. Yet I've really noticed huge improvements in my flexibility and strength as time goes on. I just love doing Yoga with Adriene!!

[@eliffatima5641]

What makes her work so impactful and beautiful is she's not afraid to be vulnerable and be fully human. I love that she's not interested in perfecting yoga or performing, but simply showing up as you are. This is also what she teaches in class to simply show up exactly as you are and let that be enough but also letting that be the magic and beauty of it all.

I am 54 years old and my muscles remember so the positive changes have been impressive. I thought that having been away from it, it would be very long before I could see changes but I was wayyyy wrong. I am so grateful to her and her teaching method.

She makes yoga relatable, she makes yoga accesible to ALL, she makes it fun, allows the space for us to be vulnerable and also have fun with our bodies in the comfort of our homes. I love you so much Adriene....best teacher, master, Goddess, real divine person...you are an asset to humanity.

It was through her that I found yoga and through her that yoga videos were allowed to play in our home. Through her, my sisters and friends were introduced to it. Because of her work, making it accessible, I am now expanding and evolving my practice into learning how to become a teacher. I've also expanded my practice to the chakras and more spiritual practices that would have been unimaginable to me 10 years ago. Thank you, Adrienne. You played a huge part in being the teacher and the bridge that led me on my healing journey and life's purpose.

December of 2018 I found her through Kiera Rose who was talking about her January challenge and I decided to join. After doing it for a few weeks I was hooked. So many emotions came out during practice. It made me aware of my body and made me start to appreciate it. This was my kickstart to take steps to start doing thing because I loved myself enough instead of out of hate. Adriene has truly saved my life. Yoga has given me so many things. Cured my backpain and weird aches, made me appreciate my body, made me more patient with myself, and make me more aware of how I feel and why. I do yoga everyday first thing in the morning and every time I skip a few days, I immediately notice it during the day. Yoga was my kickstart to start a healthy and active lifestyle which made me overcome my binge eating disorder, think about what's best in the long run. Changed my birth control, changed to walking in barefoot shoes, got better therapy and I've overcome so many things. I'm way healthier and way more able to deal with my past (ptsd). All because of the kickstart yoga gave me. Thanks Adriene, I'm so thankful I found your channel in the right moment.

I found YWA when i turned 40. Her 30 day program "Dedicate" was my intro to this great art. It's truly been a humbling experience trying to master this practice.

I also listen to my body if it hurts don't do it and that's why I love her as she adapts the class for everyone. It is amazing and when I do a class I feel I have enriched my body. Just be mindful and enjoy your class.

I watched this right after day 7 of the latest 30 day yoga journey. Adriene has truly saved me from a physical ailment that was beginning to overtake my mental wellness and I started having powerful epiphanies which I now write down when they come to me. What a beautiful human being Adriene is thank you so much and namaste. 🙏

Adriene is a wonderful human being, a trainer, a leader and and a virtual friend. Have been following her since 2015 and am proud of her achievements and growth. Thank you Adriene, you truly changed my life.

[@InnerResearcher]

I aspire to be like Adriene with my work. Devoted to service and helping others. I'm not a fan of social media and I don't aspire to be an influencer or be active on there at all. However, I want to help others be better. I love Adriene because i've been doing yoga with her for 8 years - since I was a teen! She was my first introduction to yoga, and I've never found anyone better, I don't follow her on socials, I simply tune every week to do yoga with her + I love supporting her. What a genuine, kind, devoted person. Now THAT is a true definition of an "influencer". So much love for her

I have been following her since 2015 and loved her guidance and insights on yoga and benji too I am her oldest subscriber on KZbin

[@mayanathao]

she deserves every subscriber. Her timeless beauty (in and out) is just lovely. I used to avoid her because I thought she is so slow - but little did I know, that is WHAT i need the most - after 6 years, I am coming back to her and thats all I need. "SLOW down, let breath lead your movement, not the other way around'- the message I needed to hear. AT the end its truly about when YOU are READY! Thank you ADRIENE - all the best for you beautiful soul.

I burned out on Wall Street but that is not allowed. No breaks. I had to walk away from my career. Be thankful for your ability to control what and when you do or do not. ❤️. You are terrific!

Since finding her channel in 2015, her videos have helped me thru many dark periods of poor mental health and chronic physical health conditions. That her videos are free made all the difference.

[@JenniferMenendez522]

I found Adriene's channel shortly after my car accident. She and Benji have helped me to recovery from multiple surgeries, anxiety, depression, and PTSD. 🙏💚 I am beyond thankful for Adriene.

She gave me, Mom of 2 multilingually raised kids working internationally a huge compliment by speaking about taking up her spanish class. I wish her sooo much buena suerte with it. Please, parents, never forget to gift your language and culture to your children. It makes the world a cosier place. I did it against all odds, but it was definitely a worthwhile journey. And its like yogaclass, if ever u miss out on it a day or a year, u can just start immediately again without any thought.

[@422hamilton]

Thank you, Adriene! And I hope your mom is okay. I wonder if you could do yoga for parents sometime (and yoga for postpartum, etc, as well as yoga for people taking care of elder parents), to help people with the challenge of being (and failing at being) there as caregivers for others.

[@zygadenuselegans1]

Her voice is calming and even if I can't keep up or do everything, I can close my eyes and her voice takes me to that next station. I'll keep doing my personal best. Thank you for the encouragement ❤️

[@CruellaDeVil.]

I really started doing more yoga with Adrienne after I saw her "yoga for when you feel dead inside" video and it really helped

[@lt5371]

I love Adriene and Benji!

[@ilanavaldman9548]

Adrian is my angel. She saved me through the corona lockdowns and I'm still practicing with her videos 5 times a week. My body, soul and spirit are grateful to her!

[@Soulstreamcollective]

Find What Feels Good and YWA lifer. ♥️ Adriene brought me from the idea that I had to shape myself in certain ways and poses and postures to be doing correct yoga to the truth that yoga is a personal journey to getting in touch with myself and loving myself enough to move and feel in my body and spirit exactly as I am from day to day. There is no wrong way to do it. Obviously her helpful guidances throughout each step to lovingly hold my body during so I’m supporting myself is important, but it’s just that special time to be with myself. I am so grateful to hear her voice and see sweet Benji every day!

[@toracomtirtsa7279]

Due to my job, I frequently moved from country to country which can be stressful, but wherever I was living, I had an appointment with Adriene on my yoga mat. Actually, I’ve been doing yoga with Adriene for the last 9 or 10 years.
