I have been practicing yoga for many years ... sometimes with wrist pane and sometimes there wasn‘t any for a couple of weeks. Nevertheless I wasn’t willing to accept that and practice through the pain... which is nonsense. I always did wrist warm up when it was part of your video... but didn’t do it when I practiced on my own. I changed that! I have been warming up my wrists over the last 2 to 3 months. No more wrist pain - it makes such a difference! Thank you, guys❤️

[@maggiemcc_]

This video is exactly what I've been looking for! Been having some wrist pain and I'm relieved to hear that it is "good" pain. Thanks for the video!

[@nurhaleite7704]

I'm so happy have come across this video. My pain has been on the thumb side and all your tips and warm up exercises have really helped!

[@devinreed5725]

Yup. Been practicing with you guys for about a year now and I'm just starting to feel some wrist pains. Good timing.

[@absolutcinnamon]

Thank you for filling in things my instructors left out! This saved my wrists and my yoga practice! I was about to quit! I incorporated this today, and was pain free in my hands/wrist for the first time. Much gratitude as a beginner to know I can keep practicing.

[@palolcastillo]

Ditto what many have already said plus I love the linking of useful videos in the description - because I'm new to your channel I can easily find them and keep me engage with you!

[@GokuBlue001]

Great explanation. Nice and straightforward. Much thanks 🙏🏼

[@FrowinIckler]

Great advice ! This is what I tell my participants nearly every yoga class.

[@kalianayoga9808]

I have just recently struggled with wrist pain because of the way I have been practicing certain postures specifically inversions. I am so grateful for these tips and your channel because you give such wonderful practices. thank you!! 😍👍😊

[@zachfree6126]

Thank you, Bre. You are helping so many to heal, God you bless you, you are beautiful and highly intelligent.

[@gabrielbingham605]

As a guitar player and musician...this is so necessary thank you so much 😊🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@Elena-tc8bz]

Really helpful and clear, thank you!

[@servus47]

Great tips that I’ll use to help my wrist pain. Thanks Bre!!

[@abfab664]

oh good! thanks for your great advices. so useful. And i really find the setting of your vids amazing. what a decor. love and gratitude. namaste.

[@Robnas621]

Glad you guys posted this video, I started practicing February of 2020 so almost a year now and I started to notice only last month that my wrists were starting to hurt, especially my right wrist which was making things like side plank on the right side rather difficult. But the good news is it’s on the inside of the wrist so I will work on the tips presented here

[@savedrage1791]

Perfect timing!!!!

[@marievankleef1422]

Thanks 🙏 so much, this video helped me a lot to understand the pains in my wrist. Now I know what I have to do. 💪Thanks again 🤩and greetings from Germany 🇩🇪 !💙💜💙

[@Busyfigureskating]

This is so important! Thank you for addressing this 🙂🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@marilenaioakim4718]

Thank you so much 💖 for this amazing video

[@arteoarchive]

[@clipperfrank886]

I needed this, thank you

[@barbbrazes869]

This was helpful! Thanks!!

[@marcelatalmazan4271]

I love watching your chanel grow!

[@thebadclique4010]

Thanks so much for this! 😍

[@cabiriacabiria-fy5qv]

So usefull, thank u❤

[@Helldivers2Guy]

Yes perfect timing! My wrist has been hurting lately. I haven’t practice for 2 weeks and the pain came. Now it hurts. Will do this weekly to see if it’s good treatment.

[@almal4940]

Thank you for this video! I had been having wrist pain for months, trying stretch/strengthening, etc and finally went to a doctor a few weeks ago. I had a steroid injection and it is SO much better! But now I am really focusing on strengthening so I do not have that level of pain again.

[@sonysingla4918]

I came across channel yesterday itself and love the calmness and strength u guys provide through yoga. Can u please suggest should be do the same flow daily or change it..

[@ninastamm7731]

Thanks guys for your high quality videos! Can you please make a similar video about knee pain? :) Peace and Blessings to you!

[@Alina-eo9cc]

It's kind of funny how you tell this in almost every youtube class but somehow I thougt I don't need to do this... until I suddenly had a sharp pain in my outside wrist in my practice. It luckily went away quickly when I started following your cues. But this really made me think about why I and humans in general always think they know it better until they experience some kind of failure with their way of doing something ...

[@dresdenp]

How timely! I've been using another Breathe and Flow video as a part of my morning movement practice for the 75Hard Challenge, and my wrist has started bugging me. The index finger thumb emphasis is clutch!

[@HoTLoLLiPoP]

Dear Bre and Flo! Can you please make a similar video about knee pain? :) Since i am practicing with you almost every day- which is supergreat btw! - i started to feel medial knee pain. Sending you hugs!

[@49ers_red_and_gold2]

Very important information. 12 years ago I formed a bubble on my left wrist, the doctor drained it out, I haven't see it since, but we humans ignore the little parts of the body like feet ankles and wrist. 👍🏿

[@Syedaxox]

Carpal tunnel here, and another awesome tip if you're on the keyboard a lot is to wear wrist splints while typing.

[@adam.motions]

🙏🙏

[@lysergicheadcase]

Very helpful video thank you. I was wondering if some point in the future you could do a similar video on knee pain?

[@BreatheAndFlow]

we'll consider it. however the knee is far more complex especially when it comes to the reason of pain.

[@koalaberr]

first off, thank you for all the wonderful content! I've been getting wrist pain but on the top of my wrist... is that common? I feel like it might be something to do with strain in the muscle or tendon but I'm not sure! I've been incorporating these kinds of tips already about spreading weight better through the hands, are there any other tips you would give? thanks!

[@3v1l73ddy]

The pain my wrist is on the top. I have full mobility as far as I can tell but my whole body is very weak. I also do my stretches in bed, does that increase strain on the wrist?

[@scorpleeon]

So soothing to watch. I wish people I worked with spoke this way but we have a lot of loud talkers for some reason.

[@adelehunter-smith5096]

Do you have any tips for preventing or healing a wrist ganglion? I get them all the time. Thanks for the video.

[@BreatheAndFlow]

Try what we offer here. Otherwise as the video said see a doctor 🙏🏽

[@FrancescaCaneri81]

Hello. Thank you for the video. I feel a lot of pain from 1 month now in the part of my hand just before the wrist, in the middle. I can't even do downward facing dog. Are there options using bricks to alleviate the pain?

[@BreatheAndFlow]

see a professional, ideally a structural integration therapist

[@garimatiwari7453]

Hi, will you make a sequence for elbow strength please. Whenever I do ashtanga namaskar or chaturang dandasan, I feel some pinching pain or heaviness in my left elbow. Pain doesn't sustain but it makes me modify or stop those poses. Please help me if possible.

[@BreatheAndFlow]

Watch the chaturanga tutorials in the description 🙏🏽

[@garimatiwari7453]

@@BreatheAndFlow thanks. I will definitely watch
