Hi from Spain!!!!

[@arieswaters]

From Salt Lake City Utah Adrian I love love love my yoga adriene lady

[@metakognicija]

With the recent Corona virus outbreak and a lot of us working from home, I believe I speak for all of us here when I say that I am truly, truly grateful for this channel. 💚

[@claudiaramosmonteiro]

YES.

[@excuseme1543]

YES

[@princesscaraful]

Yes!

[@MsLittleBerry]

Absolutely agreed!

[@767kgb]

Very true!!!

[@user-js4yd2wg1z]

Adriene, I just wanted to take a moment and tell you how absolutely grateful I am for you. I started doing yoga along with you close to six years ago, and I know I wouldn't be the yogi I am today without you. I appreciate your humor, understanding, and kindness. All of these things radiate from you and it makes it such a pleasure to do yoga with you. You're a part of almost every day of my week. It's incredible how the internet has allowed us all to connect like this, and I'm especially appreciative of how it's allowed me to connect with your practices. Thank you so much for all you do!

[@faithhudvagner5680]

I must say, even though it was a quick practice today I feel as awake and rejuvenated as ever and ready to take on my day! Thanks Adriene! See everyone tomorrow! 💙

[@samuelmorris9609]

I'm practicing from my apartment in Berlin, Germany :) Thank you for all that you do!

[@kirstenpaff8946]

I am currently stuck in my apartment because of the Corona virus lock down. I did this exercise out on my balcony in an attempt to get some outdoor activity. Thank you.

[@erodiadecuri]

Kirsten Paff same

[@luemun]

same here. We will make it through this 🙏

[@gyoumans2901]

I did as well ❤️

[@InAnotherCatsle]

I have depression and anxiety, and was recommended your videos by multiple people. As someone who is incredibly stiff and out of shape, and who doesn't have much prior experience with yoga, I found this video super accessible. I like that I can quietly do it at 3:30 in the morning when I'm the only one awake, and when I don't have the energy or ability to change clothes or clear furniture out of the way for floor exercises. I also like that I didn't need to use an elastic support band or a chair for balance to pull off these poses, and that you offer a few alternate ways to do the harder ones so I can work my way up to them. This video is meeting me where I am with what I can do right now, so thank you for making it.

[@InevitableM.]

i’m late to this video, i’ve been struggling with depression this year and i’ve been trying to find accessible ways to move my body. your comment really resonated with me. thank you, i hope the years have found you well

[@MusicLover2185]

I just ran a relaxation workshop at my university and used this to help students de-stress from finals.

[@fionastillgoe6617]

I love this woman. I have followed her throughout the pandemic. She has helped me mentally and physically, Oxfordshire, England xx

[@brittanyduran4687]

I'm working as a teacher in South Korea, a profession that REALLY tests patience. I did this practice between classes to give myself and my kids the best version of myself. Thank you Adriene!

[@meganmcconnell6085]

Just did this practice with my coworker on a slow day in our pharmacy. Such a nice way to break up the day. Thank you Adriene!

[@NeeNHassan]

Good Morning from my home office.. This practice was amazing.. I enjoyed it so much.. Sending love to all people out there practicing RESET day 14 💚🌸

[@bryonysherry2519]

Ive done this video so many times, i love it. Thank you Adriene! It is perfect for when I’m travelling without a mat and dont want to lie down. Any more videos like this one but 30-40 minutes would be amazing.

[@shadanzahrooni8416]

Just what i needed given that i've had a week of falling asleep on the work desk burning the midnight oil. I'm thinking to do this in the middle of a work day when i need an office break from work and not use it as a morning practice. Thank you Adriene for coming to our rescue once again. Time to show ourselves some love everybody. Projects can wait a few minutes for this is some private time we get to spend with ourselves. Self love for the win. Much love. Namaste.

[@yogawithadriene]

Namaste, Shadan! x

[@kouture10]

I return to this practice every time I have a work shift. I know most of Adrine's lines by heart by now. "Knocking on heaven's doors" is one of my favorites. Brings a smile to my face every time. Much love

[@Raymond-mk8cb]

I am beginning my 3rd year of doing yoga to your videos. I follow your monthly training calendar and I have only failed to do the daily videos 3,4 days; but I followed up by doing two on the following day. I feel much better and much more nimble. I am doing quite well for 59. Many Thanks for your videos.

[@raechelmcghee233]

Raymond, I’ll be 59 this summer and I just completed a year with these calendars of Adriene’s. It’s done wonders for me, too. Keep up the good work!

[@marylane3962]

Thanks Raymond. I too am 59 but have just started with yoga and just trying to improve my body and life. Thanks for ,the inspiration.

[@MissEllenRV]

I am 53 and finishing a year of videos. I've lost some weight, stopped taking a lot of medicines, and generally feel better. Thanks, Adrienne!

[@Hi-to-ri]

I'm not 59 :) and well done 🌹

[@amydelprete1820]

I love this Sept Reset block of practices. I've done a couple that are new to me, that I haven't picked before, for whatever reason

[@cinnamonbrunmier-keller4164]

Adriene: Your videos are saving during this WFH quarantine! I start the day with some of your a.m. stretches and then try to find time in the middle of the day for something like this. Your voice is so calming and lovely and I appreciate you always giving variations for those of us that aren't FT yoginis! You are a bright star in the darkness right now. Namaste.

[@umanovy3432]

Thank you Adriene for all the yoga videos you have shared with us. I have been doing yoga with Adriene videos for about 2 months now and have seen such a remarkable change in my body, mind as I go through my stressful work days. Today I didn’t have much time and tuned in to this video. And truly truly surprised at how good I feel just after 15 mins. You are absolutely right when you say a little goes a long way. Thanks again! Hope to do a vinyasa flow tomorrow!

[@jitsert]

Adriene, thank YOU for 'showing up' and providing me with awesome yoga-practices for any moment of the day. Two months ago I started practicing yoga again (after giving birth in october 2021) with your 30 day MOVE journey, and i have been practicing (almost) every day since. It makes me feel so powerful, strong and grounded (even with little sleep and a very busy life as a working mom of 3). So again, thanks SO MUCH for all the goodness you're sending into this world with your videos

[@user-gp9ni4pn4g]

Greetings! My daughter introduced my 89-year-old father and me to Yoga with Adriene and there's no other yoga we do now! We practice whenever we're together in the morning. We'd love to see more chair yoga and standing yoga sessions since it is very hard for him to get up from the floor these days. We've done this one a lot as well as Yoga at Your Desk, the one for folks in wheelchairs, the chair yoga, and my father's favorite, "Yoga for Couch Potatoes". Just know there's a sweet old man saying "Good morning, Adriene!" most mornings up here in New Jersey! You are amazing.

[@leighannl4591]

LOVE this office yoga practice. I am too dedicated to a sometimes thankless job and have to force myself to take breaks/full lunch so this practice will be getting utilized way more while at work. I sit at a desk for 8hrs/5 days a week so having this short, but sweet stretch is perfect. Thank you Adriene!

[@kkim6356]

I normally don't subscribe to any channels or leave comments, but want to leave a not of appreciation here for the wonderful practices you share. I did this one by my desk at home, and despite the tight space, it was really refreshing and rewarding to get a nice stretch in. Thank you, Adrienne! Sending well wishes during these tumultuous times.

[@starlight4553]

This is so so so so good! In car for hours today and did this tonight to rejuvenate a tired body and mind. Gentle stretching and calming. Worked a treat. Thanks Adriene!

[@asamantha1991]

That was amazing. I've been experiencing alot of anxiety and found a place at work surrounded by trees, the sound of nature and planes, and shade....perfect spot for that amazing session.

[@natashamakhdoomi3666]

Awesome quick practice for day 14 Reset! This is a good one when we do not have mat or proper outfit since all movements are while standing! 🥰❤

[@sydneydoornbos2624]

I know you made this 5 years ago, but so grateful for it here in 2024! Had a long day of walking around my new town and came back to my small apartment room looking for something that would work in my yoga-mat sized free space. This was perfect! You ROCK.

[@rachelmorphettwong5236]

From Sydney, Australia. Sometimes even the short yoga videos give such an energy shift. Woke up this morning feeling meh and now i just feel so alive and energetic. Thank you so much for all you do. ❤

[@TheGinoGirl]

We are all back working in the office in the UK now, so in my office we have started to all take time out together to just do this little practice; it's so welcome and we are loving it! ❤

[@alishamunson5540]

I felt the need to jump ahead in March of 2020. With being in quarantine I have been doing a lot of sewing and therefore am sitting hunched over. This practice is what my body needed, and since schools are closed, and I'm in those final days of student teaching, this is what my body and mind needed.

[@recordingqualitycollaborat2531]

Loved this Adriene! Would love more of this series especially focusing on addressing typical issues certain job types commonly face, like standing or walking all shift, driving for long periods, typing over long periods, load or unloading jobs, bad posture, etc. thanks again for this wonderful work you do!

[@dennis4298]

First-ever Yoga practice for me. feels GREAT!

[@jessicamullen1365]

Adrienne, I can not thank you enough! Not only was this exactly what I needed, but it was accessible to bodies of all levels! As someone who’s taking training in January, I’ve come to realize that yoga is intimidating to people of size and that’s what my mission will be as an instructor. Thank you for this beautiful, mid day, boosting, accessible practice. Namaste. 🙏🏼🙏🏼💖💖✨✨😭😭

[@Utubergirl98]

This was incredibly effective! I am an animator so I spend most my time hunched over at my desk and even though I'm working from home a lot I find it hard to dedicate time to rolling out the mat. Just being able to stand up away from my desk and do yoga without any other preparations was so refreshing.

[@klobherr500]

I’m cross country driving for the last week, and no mat for hotels. This video is a saving Grace for my body!

[@loublou5886]

I was pushed for time this morning so this was perfect 🥰

[@SuperBjammin]

I'm not super into yoga but these stretches/poses are ideal for my having to teach from home. My neck already feels looser. Thanks heaps for that. I'll be back 😀

[@daisysharma6319]

Hey Adriene, Hope you're doing well. I have been feeling very down lately. I started your 30 days yoga practice (the first one you posted on your channel) and I left in between. I am have been feeling emotionally and mentally drained. I felt so lazy and lethargic today, so I opened up your channel and did this amazing office break yoga. I feel happy and energized. Your channel is one of the most amazing channels on youtube. You're pure love, so grateful, and Kudos to you for posting free yoga videos on the internet even though you can charge a hefty amount for it. But I feel that this is not your motto. Loads and loads of love and regards to you Daisy, India.

[@SpanishConShannon]

This is the first major activity I’ve done since coming down with a sinus/ear infection nearly 2 weeks ago, and it felt quite nice! Especially in the middle of the work day. Thanks! Here’s to recovery!

[@chantelnicol9019]

I just completed this perfect mid-day lunch break practice at work in Cape Town, South Africa 🇿🇦

[@hi-er-freequeen-c3843]

This 14 minute video has been life altering for me. I have suffered with sciatica as well as a pinched nerve for over 9 years. When I feel an onset of pain or stiffness coming on I pull up this video. I swear these yoga poses make it all better. Thank you, thank you, thank you Adrien🙏🏾🧘🏾‍♀️💕

[@tonyrodriguez2524]

Started with a jabbing pain in the right side lower back and ended with no pain. Now to enjoy the day by doing some wind therapy on the motorcycle. Thanks Tex!

[@kajsablad8993]

RESET is the first yoga series I have managed to follow without skipping a single day. It has made these 2 weeks of home quarantine a lot less moody than they could have been.. I feel strong!!

[@ninathunder3334]

Three years later, and this is still a regular favourite. Thank you!

[@margotclemente5478]

thank you Adriene! i've done this practice maybe 5 or 6 times already. the content you share is real and applicable to everyday life. you are genuine and it comes through in your videos.

[@brittanymorgan9370]

Relaxing and rejuvenating! So glad I found your channel! Perfect for work-from-home days.

[@vanniegrace]

Great!! First day on my mat since July 2021 bc hip pain, hip replacement, and long recovery. Not ready for sitting poses, so this was perfect. THANK YOU 🙏💖!

[@jodyreddekopp339]

I'm doing this yoga routine today in Alberta Canada.

[@leahsavoie3528]

Have a good day fellow Canadian

[@doorlord1521]

I’m an animation student who spends all day sitting bent over a screen drawing. As someone who needs to be doing yoga religiously for these reasons, I loved loved LOVED this quick exercise! My mental health has also been at a low, so it was refreshing to hear the little inserts of affirmations reminding me to appreciate my body. Really great stuff, I will be coming back.

[@PaulaNicoladeAsis]

such a nice way to break the day. did this during lunch break, at home since we are working from home!

[@isabelkimble4879]

Lately I keep coming back to this flow in the middle of the day. Working from home and spending more time at my desk seems to have taken a toll on my neck and lower back and this offers relief. Namaste 🙏

[@tealapedersen4905]

Wow that was amazing!!! My body feels so much better, I can feel all fresh blood pumping through and energising my whole body. Thank you thank you

[@simplylela4196]

So much love and gratitude for Adriene being in this world! Thank you Adriene for all that you do, you truly are the reason I'm able to keep up a yoga practise. Much love from Pointe Noire in Congo!

[@gillsmith6740]

Day 25 of CREATE, I’m practicing in Norfolk, England today on this beautiful sunny morning and isolating to keep safe. This was a great little sequence to stretch and open up arms and shoulders, super after too much work on my laptop and also first thing in the morning. See you tomorrow on the mat 🧘🏼‍♀️🧘🏻‍♀️💞🙏

[@lisalutz826]

Hi Adriene! I can't even tell you how many times I have done this practice. I am often at work, in jeans, and this is the perfect little ditty to pick me up in the middle of a work day. Thank you so much!

[@shan-ie4so]

I love you so much Adriene! You don't know how happy I was to see you in jeans. I was like 'great! Something I can do without going into my yoga pants'. I cry 😭 And oh, you look really gorgeous in that outfit 😍 Hello Benji! 😊

[@pipermathews3053]

I'm so glad I rediscovered your channel! Working in healthcare during a pandemic has certainly increased my stress and this office break was exactly what I needed. I've recently started doing the shorter morning and bedtime videos you've put out and they are making a world of difference. Thank you!!

[@martialsalmon9654]

Merci Adriene. I have done my first session. I needed it. My neck was sore after spending so many hours planning my French lessons online. Also good as we are also housebound here in Spain.

[@kristinramsey5360]

Sometimes I'll have tears of gratitude after a long yoga session, but I wasn't expecting to get misty eyed after 14 minutes of office yoga! Thank you so much for making this video.

[@kellybornmann9989]

Wasn’t at my office today, but perfect for my hotel room with no yoga mat! Thank you for another great freebie.

[@bestusernameever6518]

I've been starved of physical activities for so long that I struggled to catch my breath doing this exercise! Really shows how much work I need to put in to get my body in good shape again!

[@gillsmith6740]

I swapped today’s practice for Yoga Camp Day 6 - I Am Supported - Six Pack Abs, one of my favourite core workouts that is off my wrists and super yummy and safe. See you tomorrow on the mat 🧘🏼‍♀️🧘🏻‍♀️🙏💕

[@Alypally1]

I've been working from home this year like a lot of people. I have gained weight and suffer from periods of sciatica. After a really panful few days I have been looking for a yoga class and stumbled on Adriene. I have just done this video and feel so good after it. Thank you so much for sharing, I will do this a few times this week and hope to have good back and body health again soo. Truly grateful xx

[@TropicalJetPlane]

Ahhh how I’ve missed you and your classes! Thank you so much. This one is awesome for the small space I have to exercise 🙌

[@mcfreedom692]

This is great to do once I get home from school. Sitting in desks all day long really starts to tense your back, and I'm so grateful that there's such a comforting, reassuring instructor right at the touch of a button!

[@johnbelcher4854]

Thank you again my peace and love warrior! Such a simple practice that can be enjoyed without any equipment any time!!

[@laurenleshank]

During quarantine, I was doing yoga more often than ever - as I finally felt like I had more time to tend to it. I'm now week 6 into an 8-month job story producing a new documentary-reality series for tv and have been glued to a computer and screens for 12 hours a day, and have not had the physical or emotional energy to keep it up. I finally jumped back in with this video and feel so much relief in my body and mind. Thank you, Adriene! Just like you say, *any* amount of time dedicated to practice is beneficial.

[@mareamastrogiovanni9647]

This is a great short practice today, love you in your jeans......just love you.

[@amandaslusaw625]

@yogawithadriene has changed my life! I used this video at a conference last week during a break. Thank you for providing short, sweet, and meaningful yoga content! ❤

[@ThatsWhatSheSaid6227]

Literally doing this at work! I’m fact I usually do most of my practices that are 30 min or less in my lunch break

[@carolinechase1113]

I absolutely love my time with Adriene! She has given me the gift of yoga without any car or crowded spaces that one needs to share! I pass on encouragement to everyone who has the self motivation!

[@dmkerr]

This was a great break for me in the middle of my first day working from home. Thanks, Adriene!

[@giacominasorezza3277]

I did this today at work. Feels so good and a good way to break up the day! Let's get more of these!

[@mariewinchester7790]

This is really helpful right now. The positive side of the quarantine because of Corona: I can do an office break like that and I won't get weird looks.

[@eddyvelasquez431]

Architecture kills my back, thank you so much from Guatemala.

[@GraingerPage99]

Practicing at my home in Paducah, KY today! Great practice. Thanks Adriene.

[@beckytossey7309]

Wasn't even in an office but so happy I did this practice today! I have been practicing with you, Adriene, for maybe 5 years now and have done many "Knocking on Heaven's Door"s with you, I've even done this particular practice before, but today when you said "you can call it whatever you want"... I had a moment. The motion or position of my arms suddenly reminded me of a toy I had as a kid back in the 90s, it was called "Sky Dancer", it was a little fairy that you set on a base, you pulled a string and it shot up and flew/spun around in the air for a few moments before crashing somewhere randomly in the room. I hadn't thought about that in years and it gave me such a childlike feeling of wonderment, because for a few seconds, doing that motion, I WAS THE SKY DANCER! I finally have my own personal name for this move. Thanks for that. Lots of love.

[@rinitaachal4963]

Doing this workout while at work at 11pm, soo glad I found you. You are amazing ☺️

[@gemma6093]

Right now I’m working retail, less than a week before Christmas, mid-pandemic. This is 100% what I needed on my lunch break to maintain sanity. Thank you, Adriene 💙

[@yogawithadriene]

You got this!

[@aletaholmes9737]

I like this practice today, minimal space needed! Thank you for this!

[@MattKelland]

Perfect! My new work schedule means I've had to change my daily routine, and can't do my usual before-work yoga. If I wait all day and do yoga after work, I find myself getting locked up and achy. I can do this during my 30-minute break, which is great for my back and shoulders, and it's a nice mental break too. More yoga-in-jeans-and-no-mat, please! Thank you!

[@happymindsmeditation]

Thank you for another beautiful yoga session :)

[@jenniferwoods6766]

I'm in a phase of my life right now where I'm working three jobs, and am chronically sleep-deprived. This means I often can't manage to get a full workout in. So glad you have plenty of shorter videos that I can slip in here and there, including plenty of no-sweat ones which I can do in my coffee break, or in the middle of my day when I don't want to have to take another shower or get changed. At bare minimum, if I can fit in ten minutes in the morning, and ten minutes before bedtime, and whatever walking or lifting I can do during my day, that's enough to maintain my fitness, improve my level of peace, and keep me strong, relaxed, and ready to go. This morning I didn't have time to stretch at all before work, but just did this quick one at my desk. I feel amazing! So glad I found your videos. You explain things clearly, so I can feel free to keep my eyes closed through many parts of the workout and still not miss a thing. You're personable, which makes it feel like I'm doing yoga with a friend, or even have my own private trainer! You seem to understand the difficulties people may be having, and you let them know it's perfectly fine to start from where they stand. You provide variations for those who are more skilled, or less skilled. You don't just instruct, you make it fun. For all of this, I thank you.

[@maryrabelo.s.wagner8346]

Reset Sep 14th, 2021- Ahhhh, my dear Adriene! This one came so on time!!!! 😃🙌🏻 Thank you for such a delighted time! 🤗💖 Namaste. 🙏🏻

[@cathymeep]

a quickie, but a goodie! my shoulders felt immensely tensed and stiff today, but this really helped! thank you adrienne :)

[@linepage9952]

Brightlingsea, Essex,UK. Adriene you have changed my life.

[@elizabethupton9257]

So thankful for this ! My neck and back have never felt so relieved and my whole mood has changed. Really appreciate how much effort you put into making these and the whole vibe you bring with it so thank you xx

[@vanessamorris4222]

Lovly practice today, I enjoyed it early , Namaste ❤

[@arlozorov72]

I love this, Awesome!

[@alessiacucit2948]

Awesome Standing for Stretching!!! Done in these days: -14th September 2021: ✅

[@haleyparker3653]

This is one of my favourite quick yoga practices for when I'm feeling achy after exercising or don't have much time. Great that you don't have to use a mat and can just jump straight in.

[@bernarditasandoval941]

So wonderful!!! Thank you 🙏🏼

[@leahbeschier2274]

New to yoga, never thought I'd be into it... but as a 28 year old mom to 3 little kids, you have helped me find a little moment for myself during my busy days... you have helped bring a little inner peace into my daily schedule, and in a way helped me be a better mom. Also... huge fan of your heeler, I have 1 red and 2 blue heelers (the mom, dad and their puppy) and they are such a fun breed. Thank you. I am forever grateful to you.

[@joef4819]

Been following this channel since Oct 2019 and just discovered this video in the Sept. 2021 calendar. How cute is Adriene doing yoga in jeans???

[@lunaloba3763]

I know right!I thought the same thing. Might not be as comfortable and mobile for some of us though. 😉🙏🏼

[@Digitalmarketingwithfe]

Thank you this was quite simple I really enjoyed it

[@TC-ep5hy]

I'm losing weight but still obese, and I needed something I could do while standing but that didn't require floorwork. This was lovely, thank you!

[@EenhoornPrinses]

This is so nice, I followed this routine after lunch instead of getting a cup of coffee. Feeling refreshed and energized in a healthier way! Thank you Adriene for your wonderful yoga practices

[@davidkelly7314]

Thank you so much Adriene❤️ I will be trying this tomorrow at work🙌🏻 This will be a great way to take a break🙏🏻 and get a reaction from work colleagues😂😂

[@AndySabella]

Thank you Adriene! This felt really awesome!

[@Moony2000x]

I'm stuck with corona in quarantine, and I could feel my body getting even weaker than usual due to lack of activity. Decided I needed an easy standing yoga with Adriene moment. It was difficult but I made it! Thank you Adriene for always helping me and keeping the channel so amazingly diverse! Namaste

[@melaniamessina3669]

This was awesome, thank you
