Vinyasa Flow Yoga for Stress Relief: Yin and Yang

[@fairyslaymother6131]

This was awesome!!! (Had an argument with my Big Sister yesterday. Needed this to open my heart chakra. I feel so peaceful now.) As always, thanks!

[@Fightmasteryoga]

Thank you love :)

[@NN-iw2qb]

We missed you Leslie and we will send you love and prayers in heaven. Always enjoying your videos🙏🏼💔

[@thelonepriestess]

Still here all these years later in '24... it's a big day for me today and to hear you quote The Alchemist--one of my very favorite books which I just read for like, the 500th time--well that felt like an omen. ;) Crazy to miss someone I never got to meet so so much but you, Lesley, are the woman who brought me to yoga 9 years ago. Anyone who truly knows me, knows you. Thank you for this practice, may your legacy live on forever. Namaste.

[@hollychetan-welsh2764]

Very touched by practicing this class today and hearing Leslie speaking about seeking your personal legend. Leslie truly lived hers and added to the soul of the world. ❤

[@Isminoharrypotter]

Hi Leslie! I practice many of your lessons every week and its always something great! You have done an amazing work that surely has helped many people who cant afford to pay for yoga.THANK YOU!

[@TwinFlameAmoB]

This has been my favourite class so far! The yang part really built up the heat and then I felt sonready to melt into the yang! Have been workin three days and skipped my daily yoga practice! This made for a perfect return! Thank you!

[@Fightmasteryoga]

Ann-Marie Brennan Yes, the combination is so nice! Thank you so much for your message and I'm really glad you liked it!! :-)

[@msmaryna961]

My goodness! What a blessing this class was. Thank you for your peaceful energy and wisdom.

[@Fightmasteryoga]

:)

[@elliesmithyoga]

Thank you, both the practice and the words were perfect timing. The Alchemist was the first book I read by Paulo Coelho, an amazing read. He is now rapidly taking over my bookshelf xx

[@Fightmasteryoga]

Ellie Smith Thank you so much Ellie!! Yes, Paulo Coelho is amazing. I need to read more of his books too! xx Happy Holidays! :-)

[@liyatle]

Just what I needed today. So healing. RIP lesley

[@madeannie]

Thank you so much, Leslie. I have spent the last several months fighting major depression... Your voice in yoga has especially helped me. I am very grateful. This is an especially lovely sequence.

[@Fightmasteryoga]

+J Lu Thank you. I'm really sorry to hear about your depression. I fight it too...it's not easy, but yoga is very helpful. You might also like this class: kzbin.info/www/bejne/o4PKlnl7qr2Zo7M xoxo

[@superrockgoddess]

Just what I needed. Almost cried with that camel pose/heart opener. Always grateful for Lesley's pure heart and wonderful words she's shares 🙏❤

[@judithvandijk1485]

Thank you for offering some stress release on this hectic and stressful day! Namaste!

[@Tantoun29]

I cried right after this class. Such a beautiful class thank you!

Tania Attar Awwwwee, I so happy to hear that you were so touched by it!

[@liyakhamidullina6251]

Dear Lesley, thank you for sharing this practice with your followers❤️sending you peace and 💕 love🤗Namaste 🙏🏼

[@katt387]

Thank you Lesley. This is a beautiful class and I do believe in omens and signs and experienced a series of those today - and oddly enough - today was led to this class where you spoke of those things! Thank you for your beautiful energy and all that you do so we all can enjoy yoga.

[@virginieaurore_music]

Your class was so inspiring ! I never read any books of Paolo Coelho, though I heard a lot of positive things on them, and I will totally read this book :) I was so stressed and anxious before this class, and I'm feeling way much better now. Thank you so much and Namaste

[@DiptiRai7]

Moved into a new country two months ago and recently I am constantly fatigued; could be because of the language, the unfamiliarity and loneliness. This was such a great practice. I don’t know if it’s normal but my heart broke out for no reason when I heard Paulo Coelho”s quote on love. I felt like crying. This is so strange! Thank you for the video and I always love the quotes that you bring at the end of each videos 😍😘🙏🏻

[@Grace69B]

I always come back to this one every time I’m stressed. I’ve tried others but nothing beats this. Thank you very much

[@azurajenkins9670]

That was so good!!! Exactly what I needed pre-study. I am so grateful that I can practice yoga with you Lesley. Thank you!

[@Fightmasteryoga]

+azura jenkins Thank you so much! I'm so grateful that you're practicing with us too!

[@angelagoldstein]

Lesley, this is a GREAT practice! The perfect blend of yin and yang, loved it. I only wish it were longer. :) It's so interesting as I just finished reading The Alchemist about two weeks ago. I bought the book years ago, picked it up, read the first 30 pages and left it on my nightstand never to be touched again. Then, for no reason at all, I picked it up again about a month ago and read it through. It was a totally different read than the first time, a perfect example about of my own spiritual and personal journey has changed and progressed this past year. After reading The Alchemist, I was even more inspired to continue to explore and stay true to my personal legend. Last week I enrolled in my first Yoga Teacher Training program. It begins in April and I can't wait. Thank you for all of your time and efforts spent in sharing your yoga with others, it's been truly instrumental in my journey. Looking forward to your next class! Namaste, Angela

[@Fightmasteryoga]

Angela Goldstein Hi Angela!! First off, thank you so much for your generous donation!! It's so helpful for us to be able to fulfill my personal legend of getting yoga to as many people as possible! I don't think it's an accident at all that you just read the Alchemist and then did this video! I think it's a sign that you're totally on the right path. I'm so happy that you're inspired to take teacher training!!! It's a wonderful and life changing experience. Thank you for your lovely message!!!! Blessings. :-)

[@babylone1205]

Thank you so much Lesley; these classes make such a difference in my days every time I do them. You are the best thing KZbin ever brought me!

[@Fightmasteryoga]

+babylone1205 you're so sweet, thank you!!

[@nitatewari1416]

I just practiced yoga with my first Leslie Fightmaster You Tube video class! I can't believe I just discovered this, especially since I've been wanting a video with you in it for years! Your video was such a gift, I felt like I had my own private with you and my gratitude for the day is you. I look forward to practicing with you regularly! Thank you!

[@sherrycook4468]

I really, really needed this practice today and the message in it. Just a little nod from the universe that I'm on the right path through you, Lesley! Namaste 🙏

[@Fightmasteryoga]

Hi Sherry...I love those little nods from the Universe too. I'm so glad you got one today...keep on your path!! xx

[@sherrycook4468]

❤

[@OliviasCatastrophe]

I loved how we had the movement focus first and then the slower, deeper poses afterward. I'm usually terrible at keeping still for the long deep stretches but I managed it this time without skipping ahead and doing them for a shorter period of time than you did! So I'm counting that as progress. Thank you :)

[@ekaterina4591]

Thank you so much for the class Lesley! Thank you for beeing here for us. Never thought to find such a wonderfull TEACHER on You Tube, Hug you.

[@Fightmasteryoga]

😊❤️

[@Bee.Crossing]

[@Fightmasteryoga]

fluxfuchs I'm sorry t hear that your day was stressful, but glad that this helped. :-)

[@masimamangenot2419]

Thank you, Leslie! With this new move again, I needed to release the stress that I could not even feel until this practice. I feel so much lighter all of sudden. Thank you

[@warrenwildey2862]

Namaste Leslie, I first began following your channel when I lived in Seoul, South Korea. I then went to India to do my 200 Hatha and Vinyaysa certification course. I am now back home in South Africa and LOVING the journey of being a yoga teacher. I still come back to your channel for inspiration and my own practice. I would LOVE the opportunity to visit your yoga retreats some day in the U.S :)

[@Fightmasteryoga]

+Warren Wildey thank you for your lovely message! Congratulations on becoming a teacher...it's such a wonderful calling! Yes, come to the US for a retreat sometime if you can! The next one is our manifestation and empowerment retreat January 7-10 in Sedona.

[@Fightmasteryoga]

Nicole Lange Nicole, your message is so lovely. I really appreciate your encouragement! Thank you!!!xx :-)

[@BeyondVitality]

[@Fightmasteryoga]

Thank you for sharing The Alchemist, Lesley! Just what i needed and the words really resonated with me. Yet another subtle push in the right direction to pursue my "legend" and stop doubting myself! xo

[@Fightmasteryoga]

April Kuan Yay!!! Yes, pursue your Personal Legend and help heal the Soul of the World! xx :-)

[@yannik384]

Thank you so much Lesley for responding to my request, such a great gift you've given us for Christmas :) I have done this three days running and it really has help alleviate the stress and exhaustion of working all day on my feet. Hope you and your family have a lovely break over the holiday period. Namaste oxox

[@Fightmasteryoga]

Rhiannon Fletcher Thank you so much for requesting this Rhiannon! I hope you have a wonderful holiday season as well!! Namaste! xoxoxo

[@yannik384]

@@Fightmasteryoga I only just learnt of your passing. I always thought one day I might meet you. You seemed so warm and kind. I'm so grateful I found your channel, you introduced me to yoga and helped me step into a new realm and way of moving my body. You have been a rock that I have returned to time and time again throughout the years. I never met you but, I feel like I know you. Your channel helped me through some really difficult times in my mid-20s. It's crazy you'll never know the impact you had and I certainly am not alone in that. I am so saddened by this news. I am sending your family lots of love, what a special person they were blessed with. Thank you Lesley for everything xoxo

[@HONEYDROP11]

This video made me cry. I'm in a situation right now where following my dreams isn't practical and I may have to leave someone behind in order to pursue it. I was really surprised when I heard the message at the end. I love when yoga gets personal and really resonates to me.

[@Fightmasteryoga]

HONEYDROP11 Unfortunately following our dreams is almost never practical. Not only is it difficult to make the decision to take action but then the journey can be very, very challenging with constant questioning as to whether we're doing the "right" thing. But, I've listened to my heart more than my head and have realized that I know the right thing even though it's been the more difficult one...

[@TheKimmisu]

By far my favorite yoga instructor. Great job Lesley!!!

Hi Lesley! I haven't done yoga in about a month. I got the flu and so I was not okay to do yoga or any other exercise. I still get fits of coughing, but I can't stand it any longer, not doing yoga. I've been so anxious. I just found this sequence, and I'm about to do it right now. So excited :)

[@pilarrigau4220]

Oh Lesley! This was exactly what I needed today! Thank you sooooooooooo much!

This morning went sideways in a big way over something very trivial. My reaction showed that there was stress built up that I hadn't acknowledged. Your class today was a perfect remedy and turned the day around. Sending my gratitude!

[@UltraMage67]

Hi Lesley. Thank you so much for this video. I am utterly grateful to have found your channel here on youtube. It has changed my life. This practice was very emotional. Especially the hip opening yang pose. Just like you said:) I'm so glad you mentioned The Alchemist. I read it years ago as a teenager and it has been the most eye opening and wonderful book I have ever read. The quote about the desert nourishing the falcon and the falcon then nourishing the desert is one that has stuck with me throughout the years. Thank you again!

[@Fightmasteryoga]

GetWhatYouGive Thank you so much! I love the falcon quote too! I'm so happy to that you shared with us! :-)
