Can’t believe I got COVID after three years of being so safe. I’m 72 and been doing yoga since my 30s. I’m so grateful to have found the pranayama challenges and have been doing them for several months. I really believe that this practice increased my lung capacity and helped me stay out of the hospital. Thank you for this practice. I feel strong enough now that fever has broken to participate. Your yoga videos are a blessing. Thank you so much.

[@BhartiYoga]

Hi there, thank you so much. I am really glad you have been finding the pranayama sessions helpful! Wishing you a speedy recovery ♥️

[@okvalleygirl68]

Absolutely perfect! Before covid, I worked out 5 days a week. Recovering from covid, I felt so lathargic and achey all over! This is what I needed💖Thank you and God bless😊

[@kristyburton6507]

You have saved my life. Thankyou!

[@Trishmary37]

Today is my first day back to yoga after 10 days of Covid. This was perfect, stretching all those muscles that became tense after laying around. The vibrations were great for clearing the head. Thank you so much. ❤️❤️

[@jjhhss6]

Thank you so much. Today is my Day 7, I’m feeling better but am still lacking energy and my back and body has been so sore just lashing in bed. This felt amazing. Namaste 🙏🏻

[@aminadrury1415]

Thank you so much, this video really cheered me up and helped me to feel calm whilst I get through Covid. I will be doing this every day to help with recovery

Starting today. Got Covid negative after 10 days on 19 May. But I still feel weak and have a bit of breathlessness. I hope this yoga will help. I used to do 150 push-ups a day but now all the stamina is gone. I really want my everyday life back.

बधाई हो, शानदार क्लास। मैं 72 साल का हूं और योग करता हूं, लेकिन अब मैं आपके चैनल को फॉलो करने जा रहा हूं।

[@BhartiYoga]

thank you sir! I am glad you are enjoying the session here!

[@ROCKDEES1]

Just what I needed. I'll be doing this daily, perhaps twice a day. Thank you, smashed that like 👍 button.

[@heathersweeting2200]

Thank you so much, this was the perfect gentle re-introduction. I had only just started doing yoga again after years away from it, but I had struggled to keep with it in my daily routine, then I got Covid-19 and have been so sick for a week! Today is the first day I have felt able to get out of bed, and I felt that a gentle yoga routine would be an ideal way to get my body moving again and open up my lungs - your video was absolutely perfect for this and eased all the achey joints without overdoing it. I’ll definitely subscribe and try other videos as I recover more fully and bring yoga practice back into my daily life. Namaste 🥰

[@BhartiYoga]

Hi Heather, thank you and I am glad you found this helpful. Wishing you a speedy recovery!

[@hannahhabibi8094]

Thank you so much Bharti, I've been doing yoga since 2018 and I can't believe today for the first time I learnt why humming chant is so beneficial; I had never pressed the flaps of ears before so couldn't feel the vibration from within my scull. This is such a miraculous experience, wow. I believe it has a very therapeutic effect and even after the first time of practice, I truly felt the change. THANK YOU and keep up the great work 💗

[@marymckay9621]

I love this practice, thank you

[@spotdogit]

Also a great addition to my morning asana pranayama routine! I was able to do this without one rale or cough after doing the 15 minute pranayama routine. Thank you for suggesting it ❤️

[@janeh718]

Thank you so much for this. It is perfect for the lingering tight chest cough symptoms. It’s great (and important) to feel I can still do do something even when most of my practice feels out of reach just now.

[@cassandra.rose.]

I am forever appreciative of this practice. Having CO-VID 19 for the second time really put a damper on my ability do keep up with my daily practice, and this was absolutely perfect to ease back in. 🙏

[@BhartiYoga]

Hi, glad found the session helpful. Wishing you a speedy recovery! ❤️

[@twistedsister226]

Dear Bharti, thank you so much for this soothing practice. I wish some asana transitions were slower, it felt a little rushed to me. Thank you for what you're doing and looking forward to discovering your other yoga practices. Let's kick Post-COVID's ass!

[@supaKiki1982]

Thank you for creating a post Covid exercise. When I had Covid last week it felt like the worst flu. Fever, congestion, body aches, loss of smell you name it. Luckily my body began to recover quickly and I tested negative by day 6, however I am now struggling with post- Covid symptoms like sinus pressure and brainfog. The brainfog caused me to have a bit of anxiety the last couple of days but this breathing technique really helped me calm down. I will continue this yoga exercise for the next few weeks to help my body recover.

[@BhartiYoga]

Hi Tiffany! I am glad you found this session helpful. Wishing you a speedy recovery. Take care 🌞

@@BhartiYoga Hello, thank you again for this gentle yoga and pranayama sequence. Now this is my 12th day and It is my first day I can go out for a walk :) I am recovering and your video practice helped me a lot physically and mentally. I did stick to practice even if I felt weak and was sweating, I just made as many breaks I needed. It was very calming to see your face and listen to your voice in home isolation. I modified a bit, I used block for head supporting in some poses and in camel pose I used a roller under feet to lift up hills. After this few days I can bend more in butterfly pose and wide-angle seated forward bend and I had always problem with that before. Thank you .......
