Hi Birdie, Every morning as I get out of bed I look forward to seeing your videos and doing a gentle yoga practice Your voice is very soothing and your yoga practice is kind to the body and soul Thanks for your time and generosity Sabina

[@YogaWithBird]

That makes me so happy to hear, Sabina! ❤️🤗

[@KeziahGibbonsGuided]

Thank you. I feel it getting easier every time I do it. I had knee surgery 7 months ago and even a month ago was feeling defeated, robbed, scared that I had lost my ability to sit cross legged ever again (from a previously flexible person and meditation teacher who really loves this pose for meditation). Now I can sit, with pillows for props, but without discomfort. I feel like I am at home in my meditation practice again. So thank you, Bird, for this video, this is the impact you are making in people's lives.

Day 5 done. Even though i can easily sit cross-legged this practice was a chance for me to feel calm with a slight stretch. Love

[@MichelleyBelly83]

Laying down with both knees open to either side is such a simple yet effective stretch. This was great. Thank you.

[@YogaWithBird]

One of my favourite stretches to do every morning before hoping out of bed! 💗🤗💗🤗

[@taram8978]

Very well demonstrated. Thank you! I have a hard time sitting in cross legged position. I now sit at the edge of the cushion and doing much better, yet my legs ache a bit. so maybe I need more practice.

[@YogaWithBird]

Place pillows under your knees 🙏🙏

[@taram8978]

@@YogaWithBird Thank you!! I was placing pillows, but that is uncomfortable too as my knees eventually relaxes and touches the floor after a few mins.

[@YogaWithBird]

[@johnpaulschnabel4425]

Have you ever read the Power of Now by Eckhart Tolle? I started getting into yoga a few weeks ago but your the only channel i subscribed too. I love how you mix in meditation with your yoga practice. I can clearly see that you live very in the moment during your yoga videos. Thank you for being yourself. ❤️👌

[@YogaWithBird]

I am so glad these classes resonate, John! Meditation has been a part of my life for a very long time so i am glad to know that you enjoy that subtle aspect of each of my classes. I have yet to read that book but i will definitely put it on the list 🙌 Thank you so much for sharing space here with me!

[@coolrae1979]

Hi Bird, Thanks for these videos. I love the music you choose and how thoroughly you explain these poses. I'm enjoying this series. Thank you. (PS. Do you have any meditation videos? I have found that I stay in the moment really well when I find a find a short guided meditation before I start my yoga practice.)

[@YogaWithBird]

So happy you’re enjoying these classes! I have a playlist of all of my guided meditations. Hope you enjoy, much more to come ❤️ kzbin.info/aero/PLCIrre1vyDlxD5RvnnVZxW-C6lv5mz-y6

[@karikavandermerwe3397]

Hi.. So i can sit with my legs crossed and i sit comfortably but my knees are high up from the ground. What exercises can i do to make my knees be on the ground while sitting crossed leg. Can i just continue practicing everything in this video? I'm already comfortable how i sit just would like to be more flexible and have my knees lower...

[@rosalynbrandon4107]

🙏🏾❤️

[@thisissis8366]

Putting an ad in the middle isn’t a bed idea kinda gave me a little break 🐇🐇🐇🐢🐢🐢thank you again!!!

[@YogaWithBird]

I thought it was the perfect place to place an ad and give time to prepare for our seated modifications towards the end of the class. So happy you joined thanks so much❤️

[@w8vey]

Can you do a video that helps with sitting on our heels. I really struggle with sitting on the back of my heels for more then 10 seconds

[@YogaWithBird]

Ofcourse! For the meantime. You can have the knees about hip distance apart feet in line with the knees and place as many books or pillows between the legs so they support your seat. As high as you need.

[@w8vey]

Yoga With Bird Okay thanks 🙏🏽

[@jax5514]

So this days day 5. Is this a 30 day practice? Do you offer 30 day Playlists?

[@YogaWithBird]

Hey Jax! It is. It’s a part of my 30 days of yoga for inflexible people. I forgot to add the playlist in this uploads description. Here you go 😊 kzbin.info/aero/PLCIrre1vyDlybJmrSb19MiVWnve5slKTJ
