I love all your neck and shoulder workout! I always feel so good after the routine.

[@hanifaditta]

Paula's yoga is better than a massage for releasing my tight neck and shoulders. Its' the best medicine and the sense of relief almost moves me to tears. I love your practices and no other yoga instructor measures up to you. Thank you for being my teacher.

Happy for your yoga class channel to pop up on my screen. Love it. ❤🌹💪💪😍

[@annatassi4035]

I am Just so happy doing your Beginners March calendar ❤ and Just wondering why I never tried before😂 really happy I feel hooked🎉

[@acushley1]

@yoginimelbourne I really liked this practice and "Neck pain relief yoga 8min "! A couple years ago I was searching for "sauna yoga" and until I came across your videos I had only found two sauna friendly practices. Now I have 4 I can do in there. I'd like to request you make a series of short (10-15 minute) videos that are designed to be done seated on a bench. Most sauna ceilings are low enough the you can't fully extend arms overhead. That could be a consideration, or I'd just sit on the lower bench.

[@tiffanydiamond4946]

I'm LOVING your videos! I'm in my second trimester of pregnancy so everything is moving and tightening. I "do" an hour of your videos every morning and it's a wonderful way to start my day! Thank you!!👏🧘‍♀️🙏

So lovely to hear, good on you for practicing! xx

[@sanabukhari7807]

I started following you since last month, I had chronpain in my shoulders and neck , it helped me a lot to get rid of pain. I am doing this neck and shoulder on regular basis. I want to try famous yoga poses and trying to follow you but unable to do some exercises like 5 daily yoga poses , please do some tutorial on downward dog.

[@yoginimelbourne]

I'm so glad that the practice is helping - good on you for practicing. Thank you for the tutorial suggestions, I'll definitely look into doing these sometime :)

[@laychailee2467]

Just did 2 of your videos back to back.😍😍😍 You have a super soothing voice which I love. I wonder for a future sleep video, is it possible to guide us to relax vocally from head down..Like brows, eyes ..Down to the legs n toes. Know what I mean? That will be a extremely effective to help us relax even more. Sorry, I m getting greedy here. Please n thank you.

[@yoginimelbourne]

Thank you so much for the lovely feedback. Have you tried the yoga nidra practice: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rorEf41nhsd5pK8 There are a couple of other mediations available too - let me know you go! :)

wonderful, energy and neck release :)

[@HoneyandBe]

Thank you I really enjoyed that especially as I experience a lot of tightness in my upper body from carrying a toddler around. Thank you and namaste

[@yoginimelbourne]

I'm really pleased to hear that you found it helpful - the upper body really does get tight carrying your little one around! x p

[@donnarparks]

Fantastic! Did a hip and hamstring class first. Feeling great. Thank you

Lovely to hear xx

[@anicoJanOde]

thank you🙏

[@yoginimelbourne]

You're welcome 😊

[@thetruemanshow5123]

WOW!! This and you are magical!!! Would this be considered yin yoga?

[@yoginimelbourne]

Aww thank you, that's really sweet of you to say! It's not technically yin because we are moving through a sequence of movements/poses (you tend to hold poses for 3-5 min in yin). This is more of hatha style yoga practice with some functional movement/mobility in there :)

[@sarahberney]

Thank you soo so much for this, so appreciated. Bless you.

It's a pleasure x

[@vfrannyv]

thank you for the great practice. but i have a question. i couldn’t do the monkey grip with my right arm lower on the back, while i did it easily when my left arm was lower on the back. also, i feel a little bit of pain in my right upper arm after the practice. does this mean i have something in my right shoulder?

[@deniserondou285]

Soms te snel. Dank u

[@yoginimelbourne]

Pleasure :)

[@OurBeautifulPlanet777]

Thank you so much ma'am. This routine is really effective. I could feel the tension release which was accumulated in my shoulders. But one more thing, did you switch the left and right sides in the video?

[@yoginimelbourne]

I'm glad you enjoyed it - and I'm mirroring you in the video, so yes I switched sides :)
