[@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.

[@larissav2397]

Hi, Paula! Thank you very much for the wonderful sequence. I have subscribed to your channel and have saved most of the videos for the neck, shoulders and upper back, 14 videos all in all. I tend to do one per day, one after another and then start all over again. I like your way of teaching, it's very comforting and soothing. Thank you once again, have a nice day and take care!

[@gwiam4371]

Thank you Paula sending you my gratitude from the other side of the globe 🙏🏿🙏🏿

[@funkinfurdro]

With 4 herniated cervical discs, I follow along with a plethora of different upper back/neck Yoga videos at least 5 days a week. In all of them, many of the stretches are quite similar. Until this video. This was an absolutely fantastic approach to what ended up being very restorative yoga. I love that at no point does the neck need to be extended beyond the limitations of someone with a neck injury. When I was new to the practice of yoga for my neck, I hadn't yet figured out that with a permanent injury such as that I have, that some of the poses could do more harm than good as far as causing pain goes, and so feel your approach to getting those same areas stretched out in a way that protects the neck from overextension is a flipping god/goddess-send. Also, this is the first time Ive left a comment for any video, ever, if that speaks to how fantastic I thought this video was. Furthermore, it offers stretches of areas in the shoulders and upper-mid back that are quite uncommon. That whole region feels amazing after this video, instead of even more sore!

[@yoginimelbourne]

Thank you for such lovely and considered feedback! It really is great to hear that the practice is supporting you in a way that feels right for your body and needs! xox p
