I think I had repressed anger. I don't know why exactly but the wood chopping bit got me so angry, crying & screaming like I was frustrated at something. I need to come back here often for a self check-in

[@namnamhedgehog]

Was it your first time or after a few exercises?

[@jennifermitchell863]

I cut down a tree in my yard that was taller than my house. I loved it so much and I could feel it getting anger out. The cracking sound the 3 trunks made right before they fell was so satisfying!

[@Heather.369]

Same girl! I felt it too. Defeats coming back ❤

[@WhatsernameKyiv]

This practice helped me to go through a breakup. I was extremely heartbroken, mad, sad, angry... It;s been a month and I'm a completely diffrent person, I'm calm and I can recall the whole situation with gratitude. Thank you so much for this practice that hekped me release my unpleasant emotions 😍

[@FireSilver25]

Love this! Congratulations

[@fortheloveofgardens979]

Wow my body has not felt this relaxed and light in years. I plan to do this twice a day. Thank you so much

[@fleabag6477]

I was not expecting to cry at the end and scream like a crazy person when I was doing the wood chopping movement, thank you for sharing.

[@traceymorris1379]

Oooohhh...Little bursts of release Anger sadness....recent loss of my mother...the little girl in me seeking the evasive love of her mother...relief knowing our soul contract was carried out as we had agreed in the beginning of time... Need several visits to this....Thankyou 💛💛💛

[@jaileneochoa8487]

Wow this was so great! I was feeling chest tightness due to anxiety all day and my body felt relieved and excited when shaking the hands and body..I wanted to start jumping extremely high and excessively. I imagine this is how my soul must feel while my body tries to keep its composure. Like “I want to get out!” Definitely going to repeat.

[@fayrinalindberg]

Amazing! First time doing somatic yoga. It was very releasing. I started to cry during the wood chopping. At the end I felt like a beautiful flower vine connected my brain to my spine to the rest of my body. I felt like a weight was lifted off my shoulders, I felt empowered, and free. I felt like a higher self was enveloping me in their arms. Thank you. Will be back for more!

[@Gwreck562]

Thank you Brett for another amazing short healing yoga class. I really enjoyed this one too like the last one you did these are great! You really nailed in these new video you are putting out they are amazing. The music, the background, your grey outfit looks great on you and your voice is very healing as well. keep up the great work as you continue to make better video and help heal the world one day at a time.

I’m so grateful for this video thank you. Love from Nigeria 🇳🇬

[@susanthrossell]

I've done this video a few times now and each time I want to stop at the bit just before the wood chopping, I'm convincing myself that I don't have anger. Today I carried on, crying - thank you, I'm sure it helped!!

[@michaelinenaubert5099]

I have convinced myself for 44 years I have no anger, until a nervous breakdown and burnout hit me in February... One day at a time, one practice at a time. ❤

[@ashleywagner8650]

This was wonderful! Thank you!

[@jennajudd3725]

I literally think this has saved my life! I have M.E, and a lot of what I think is stored trauma, as a result of being run down I've had a major flare up, face in spasms cronic fatigue (literally felt like dog 💩) I've done this workout multiple times a day for the last week and I cannot believe how good I am feeling, to the point my face is nearly spasm free. I seem to yawn excessively while doing this workout, which is odd. Thank you so much ❤

[@PH-wt9ed]

Yawning is a sign of release!!❤

[@jgage2840]

My first class and I will definitely be back for more! To those considering it, I encourage you to try. I’ve been amazed at the impact of somatic work and this video is the best combination of yoga and somatic.

[@BrettLarkinYoga]

Yay! I can't thank you enough for sharing your kind words, @jgage2840! That means a LOT! 🤗

[@Pariss0714]

At first when I began this practice I thought it would be very calm like other informed trauma or somatic yoga videos I’ve tried before. But the heavy breathing and exercises we did left me feeling great after! Thank you so much :)

[@lanadawiskiba3621]

Thank you ! I always feel amazing after your session 🎉

[@aleenr4425]

Definitely going to keep coming back to this!! ❤❤❤

[@papiatalk9356]

[@joannfabiano6210]

As a yoga instructor- I’m so very much enjoying your somatic yoga videos.. so much needed in this season of my life. Starting to manifest and seeing my yoga going in this direction to help spread the awareness and the need for this to help others ❤. Thank you Brett

[@stellavite8459]

First time, loved this!! Thank you so much from my heart ❤ Stella

[@sheilahunt2671]

I just found your site. My life has been chaos for over a year. I really thought people were making it up that you could cry out your emotions doing these workouts. This was my first time doing your workout and I was crying doing the karate chops. I’ve been stuck in fight or flight for about 8 weeks. So much anxiety and unable to sleep but wired. Thank YOU! I feel like I can love myself again.

[@BrettLarkinYoga]

Thank you for sharing! Feel all the feels and make sure to come back to this class again ❤

[@amandamccloskey9841]

Thank you for this class! I was very angry and couldn't shed it the last couple days. I released some of it through this class.turns out it was sadness. So grateful for you! 🙏💜🤍

[@donavanrekstis6863]

I’m going thru a divorce after 23 years with the last several my wife was cheating on me. This is helping me thru the betrayal trauma so much. It is also bringing up some past repressed emotions. I have found this to be the best release out of anything I have tried. Thank You so so much.

[@healwithkrystalellison]

🎉❤❤ so helpful

[@strokewarrior-vx8hr]

Half an hour after doing the somatic release I started crying and couldn't stop. The same thing happened yesterday when I did an ampuku massage. The massage therapist said I had a lot of suppressed anger and it's making me sick. Probably explains why I had a stroke 4 years ago.

[@patriciascarpetti2580]

[@jewgirl012]

Thankyou x1000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000thankyou!!!!!!!!!!😢

[@anewme00]

This felt very kundalini like. Am i correct in this observation? I love it tho.

[@Stephanie-nl6tv]

I’ve never done your yoga before… I was crying. A lot. Is that normal?

[@tylerpurrden]

I know i need to do this, i started crying as soon as you told me i was safe 🥺 but i've got fibromyalgia currently intensified by long covid symptoms (and I'm autistic, woo-hoo!); it's really uncomfortable right now sitting cross-legged (the cushion doesn't help, i did try), and then when i lay down flat my head and tailbone are so uncomfortable on the mat. Any suggestions? I am gonna look for another one of yours in the meantime. (thank you for all that you do for us 🙏)

[@PH-wt9ed]

I just did it on my bed, one leg hanging off, then did downward dog just leaning on the side of the bed. My knees popped trying to be in a crawl position but that’s because I’m stiff! Keep at it! You’ll loosen up as I will!❤

[@fourtyplus4512]

I really want to try this, but I worry a little about the fast inhales and exhales during the sawing and the chopping wood. It seems too fast, I worry about hyperventilating. Is it really that fast, or is it "inhale hold hold hold exhale"? Thank you so much.

[@fleabag6477]

Every body is different, do what feels right for your body, I did not follow her video to the T but did what felt right for my body

[@aprilgale2917]

I don't think I've allowed myself to feel safe in a really long time. During the first few minutes hugging the arms in I started to cry violently.

[@WellnessGreece]

Great practise Brett , loved the bouncing part , would you make a session with a longer part please ?

[@BrettLarkinYoga]

Thank you! Will do! ❤

[@melissabadcock7574]

How often should I do this?

[@lakshmi1597]

I am doing exercises and releasing negative emotions but my concern is sometimes I am getting new negative emotions...How to lessen intensity of nw negative emotions ? Please reply....Brett

[@annika17867]

I felt rushed with this one. I think I need a longer, slower routine

[@justanotherdayonthewestcoast]
