Yoga For Depression - Yoga With Adriene

[@kathrynwest3815]

I wanted to say that this morning I was looking at my phone feeling so alone and wishing that someone would call or text, got a notification email and thought it was just some sale advertisement, but it was yours. It may sound stupid but with you and your wonderful spirit I do not feel so lonely, and I feel very special after this practice. This really brought me out of a dark place tonight. I hope you know how much of a blessing these free yoga videos are and how you've really changed my life for the better through your channel. I love you Adriene!

Not sure who needs to hear this - if things are rough for you right now, hang in there. This storm will pass. Just keep putting one foot in front of the other. Baby steps, my dear. As long as you don’t quit, you will reach the summit. Remember, baby steps are all it takes. Take a brief moment to rest, refuel, and come back stronger. You can do this. And when you reach the top, you’ll be glad you didn’t stop. Slowly, but surely, you’ll get there. Don’t give up. You can do this. ❤️

I cried when she said to jump it to the middle. I did this practice with my chest tight and nervous. I live in an abusive household where I get in trouble for making the slightest noise. I got yelled at for opening a drawer to put on my yoga clothes. Had to do this practice with a Bluetooth and taking out the jumping 😔 I don't feel as stupid knowing at least that I'm not the only one that cried

Just 5 min before I decided to do this video, I was crying so much that my body was starting to hurt. I am not yoga person so i just searched some depression yoga and clicked. I was afraid of some difficult poses and what I've got was literally a cure for my pain. I think I'm gonna do your videos daily so I can start to feel like myself again and push away all the dark thoughts. Thank you. (Sorry for my english, it's not my first language)

I've been suffering from depression for almost 1 year. And I find life is so meaningless i can't even understand why I was born. But when she said "Name one thing you're gratefulfor" first thing came into my head was "I'm grateful for to be alive". Thank you, Adriene. I feel much better now ♡

"The universe is for me, and so is everything else." This made me have to pause the video to cry. I've been having some awful thoughts this past month. Thank you for giving me a bit of perspective.

[@nalinimaraj9858]

Oh baby.....

[@paulam5864]

This was powerful wasn’t it? I think that thought hits the core of depression. The sense of worthlessness is so deep when depressed. The realization that we are supported by everything is so very helpful. I want this to be my mantra for a long time. Fear comes without it. Faith in life comes with it. I hope all who are sensitive can gain our strength and self esteem. We are supported and needed here in this world. Peace to all🙏🏻💗🌷

Halfway through this video, I started to cry. So I curled up in a ball on my bed and let it happen. Came back to the mat, jumped back in, and am feeling strong. The situation that was bothering me hasn't changed, but I have changed as I face it. Thank you for facilitating such healing work. Namaste ❤️

[@LaurenMelisa]

At first I misheard the mantra and thought it was "the universe is FORMING, and so is everything else." I love that idea too because it reminds me that everything is constantly changing and transforming. It's okay to be in a state of transition; I don't have to be perfect. I am forming. Helps me to not be so hard on myself :)

One of the things I like about YWA is that A’s mic quite often picks up her heartbeat. It’s such a strong connection with the practice and the body as we sense it from the inside. Thanks Adrienne.

[@niikomanis]

I have been crying for days non stop or would stop to face my family and hide the fact that I am depressed, just to then retreat to my room and cry, lie in bed, feel the negative emotions all the time, all alone... I sought advice in a support group. Someone told me I should do yoga. I don't know your channel but it's the first video that popped up when I typed "Yoga for depression." After doing it for 10 minutes I heard the door bell ringing. Someone brought a package. A young pretty female walked towards me, asked me name with her pleasant voice. I smiled back and took it. I realized I smiled for the first time in what feels like eternity. And it was a genuine smile. I feel calm. My heart isn't going crazy right now. The words "The universe is here for me" - that hit hard. Thank you. I will answer remember the random stranger who told me to do yoga. And I will always remember this video and you. Continue. You helped me. This is significant

My Psychiatrist recommended I find a yoga practice that focused on positivity and breathing more than on the complicated movements. I feel that I have found that here - and although this video did make me cry, I do feel better and will continue working through the rest of the playlist. Thank you so much.

[@renee1664]

To me, this sounds like really good advice - combining therapy with other practices to heal :) If it makes you feel better, I hope you are going to continue with Yoga and I hope, that your journey is moving towards more positivity and love. Stay safe.

My Dear Adriene, Even though we have never met before, you have walked with me these past few months during the darkest & loneliest moments of my life after the girl I loved walked away from our relationship.

[@梨-i5l]

I've been suffering with depression and anxiety maybe all my life, but this past year I've really broken down and had to go on medication. Alongside that I wanted to make myself better and did my own yoga routine when I could, but it didn't really work out and got repetitive. Then in the summer I got sick and couldn't take cold/flu medication so I found your yoga when sick video and loved it. From that I tried the 30 day challenge and lasted around 20 days, before my teacher training got too much to balance and everything fell apart. I thought I'd be following this career path since I was 16 ears old. I've been through a lot when I was younger, but never felt this crushed. And today I was so low I couldn't break out of it and I came back to here. It was really hard to start, but halfway through I was smiling and actively engaged again. I even had to do a downward facing dog afterwards. Its so stupid for me to pour my heart out in public, but I really just wanted to thank you Adriene (and your team) for these yoga videos, as they really have been helping me. My goal for 2019 is to do more yoga, everyday in January and then 2 or 3 times a week afterwards, and to eventually manage my life without medication. I wish you all the best for 2019 and onwards.

Something amazing happened this morning while practicing. When Adriene said to think about something we’re grateful for, I instantly thought about my mom and as soon as I recognized that, she entered my room and hugged me, saying these words: “I don’t know what to say or why I’m here right now, I just want you to feel loved”. And of course then I started crying.

I’ve been struggling with anxiety and depression for the past four months. Had a bit of breakdown this afternoon-made a hole in my bedroom wall out of rage and spent the next 30 min crying on the floor. Eventually it subsided and I decided to start this video. I’ve been preventing myself from doing so many things over the past few months because I’ve been afraid. Haven’t done a headstand in so long and today I was like, screw it, I’m doing it. A big grin spread across my face and I said hi, because just for a moment, I felt her-the girl I used to be. Hope I can get back to being her full time someday. Thank you so much.

I have been struggling with major depressive disorder since I was 13 years old. I used to have a handful of unhealthy coping mechanisms that I resorted to: self harm, self medicating, and isolating myself from everyone around me.. Now at almost 18 years old I’ve done some cognitive and behavioral modification (with the help of my therapist hahaha) and am trying to do things that serve my body, my mind, and my soul. This is a video I continue to come back to, it’s such a good reset and has helped me so much. Thank you Adrienne for all of this free content you give to people like me.

This morning, I woke up much earlier than my alarm clock to all the really unkind things I've been carrying with me in my subconscious, my own toughest critic. I couldn't calm myself down, no matter all the knowledge & tools at my disposal. I've been carrying this heaviness around with me a lot, interfering the way I work, the way I show up with loved ones, the way I inhabit myself. Hearing & repeating, "the universe is for me, & so is everything else" made me feel a crack in my chest, an opening, a wish, and a hope. Out came some tears. As another commenter mentioned, I probably could have benefited from pausing the video to absorb that statement, one I will write down in hopes that it will stay. Lifting our heart center, jumping into gratitude, moved me into a space I haven't felt in some time. Thank you, Adriene, for creating this video & for traveling alongside each of us, guiding us towards the light. I appreciate you.

As someone who is in a very dark place at this very moment, I want to encourage anyone else who is struggling and say that you are worth it, you are beautiful, and you will get through this. Adriene, your bright and charming presence and personality is the reason I keep coming back to this video when I feel like I don't have anything left to give. I hope you find comfort by knowing just how much your videos make a difference in people's lives and could be the very saving grace that people need to keep fighting. I haven't met you personally but I love you Adriene. Thank you. ❤️

Hi Adriene! I wanted to let you know that how you changed my life! I want to tank you form the bottom of my heart! I was a total mess about 5 months ago, now I feel so much more grounded and happy since doing yoga and pranayama exercises with you. God bless you my beautiful friend! Namaste 🙏🏻

[@kristiyankrumov1515]

Please Adriene do Yoga For Energy! You are wonderful!

[@jamiefortenberry5639]

Şebnem Budak your so beautiful

[@longhairgreeneyes]

Woke up with sore muscles, a tired body, a heavy heart, and limited time to put into my practice today, wondering which of your videos would best suit my needs for this day. I open KZbin and the first video on my home screen is a 15 minute yoga for depression practice. PERFECT!!! Just what I needed just when I needed it!

[@yokilin329]

longhairgreeneyes,me too, just in a perfect time. Its so great !

[@cassann1578]

Dear Adrienne, you're so kind to create this practice! And I want to add that it felt very intuitive, especially the jump to a wide legged stance. I got the biggest smile. Why was that so awesome?!? Thank you!!!

[@quadimus]

I LOVE how you can hear Adriene's heart beat in these early videos! It just makes the video so real and human. It makes a great practice even better. Thank you Adriene!

[@hhiikkii]

I don't know what is going on with me today but I was feeling sad all day and decided to take your lesson. While following your yoga, I had tears I don't know why. I just let my tears run and focused on breathing and stretching, all the sensations. My body and heart feel so much better now. I can't appreciate your calm energy and Guru Bengie! Sending you a lot of love!!

[@amberpage7936]

I literally sobbed all the way through this! I've felt so lonely and useless for ages but I felt something good when we were thinking of things we are grateful for. I'm not 100% but not 0% anymore. Thank you Adriene!

[@sharonrayneryoga]

Gratitude is powerful. A book that I have read lots of times and find really useful is The Magic by Rhonda Byrne, all about gratitude, it’s amazing. 😊

[@JessicaWarrener]

This channel has become my number one resource to help me look after my physical and emotional wellbeing. Thank you for everything, Adriene & thank you Kula! Namaste

[@rebeccabrennan1854]

Thank you. It's been a long time since I've watched your yoga videos but after struggling with intense situational depression which has led to such extreme anxiety and fear for the past 5 months I finally took the time to watch this. While I've been trying to practice gratitude lately I feel myself being so numb and disconnected every time. When you mentioned the gratitude section it was the first time I've felt such intense emotions while practicing gratitude. I'm going to try continue with regular yoga going forward as I think it will be so helpful for me to try get out of this horrible mental place I am in.

[@naycychavez7511]

Tears rolled down my cheeks as I did this. I wasn’t expecting it but my emotions were released in a healthy way. Thank you for this beautiful practice ❤

[@ohhellothere25]

Hi Adriene. Today was hard, and while lying in my bed for the ??th hour straight I randomly thought of googling yoga for depression. This came up, I did it, and I feel unspeakably lighter. Thank you, so much

[@emilyburke3762]

I have been struggling with PTSD, depression, and general anxiety from abuse, for years. I recently decided to try losing weight (dieting and working out.) I first stumbled upon your 5 minute after workout video to stretch after working out. I kept finding more and more of your yoga videos, and I keep using more of them every day in my new routine. Your videos have helped me in more ways than I can explain. In motivation for my workouts and dieting, staying healthy. Motivation for living even. You have helped my anxiety tremendously as well. I think I can confidently say that I am hooked to your yoga class for life. Thank you so much! Please never stop doing what you do!

[@janeybakarbessy2330]

Ever since this pandemic I think a lot of people has gotten mental health issues even. It’s been hard not able to trust myself and my thoughts. Doing daily your yoga let’s me strengthening my thoughts into the poses and trying to get rid of those dark thoughts out of my mind and of the mat in to finding gratitude in little things. Thank you.

[@shamanin-training8039]

Was feeling extremely down this morning. Midway through this video, I caught myself smiling. By the end of it, I felt stronger. Thank you, Adriene.

[@ronniesal7436]

Adriene was sweet saying: "hold your heart high, and then hold your head high". I almost cried when she said that cause it is hard to hold your head or heart high ehen you feel alone and rejected. The cherry on top was "let ypur spirit guide you". Thank you! Namaste! 🙏❤🌷

[@laurahanson1735]

Works for anxiety too! Im so grateful this video made its way to my practice today. Every pose, every breathe , every word she speaks is healing ❤❤❤

[@antje8303]

Adriene: "Name one thing your´re greatful for" - Me: "This video. " Adriene: "Breathe out and name another thing" Me: " Uh....".

[@manalinandagawali4035]

when you said think of something you are grateful for, i thought i am grateful that i found your page🙏

[@mollypopmollypop]

I really needed this restoration after a weekend of feeling awful both emotionally and physically. I've been holding on to this terribly draining bad mood, and this practice really helped me to let it go and release all the terrible feelings that I couldn't quite name or pinpoint the source of all while knowing they were weighing me down. It is not often that a yoga practice brings me to tears but this one did in the best way.

[@TaunellE]

Me too ♡

How many minutes u took this yoga

[@rickybynight]

This video came up in my KZbin recommendations at a time when I've been feeling very alone and struggling to see the evolution of my life and where I'm supposed to be going. It was amazing to know that there are millions of other people out there going through very similar challenges - thank you for everything that you do for this community Adriene, you have always made me feel so welcome, loved and supported.

[@renberger3332]

I had a awful day today. I barley slept, had a mental breakdown in my art class, had a ton of homework to get done, and my car broke down - plus, I’ve been in a horrible headspace for the past few days anyway. I did some yoga before this too but decided I needed something particularly for today. I found this and when Adrienne said to think of something we were greatful for, even if it was stupid or materialistic - I don’t know why, but I just thought sunshine, the fact that I woke up at all. Not gonna lie, I started sobbing - this was exactly what I needed. 💕

[@poppingcandee]

Thank you Adriene! I was really struggling and cried my eyes out for the last few days, but even though it was for a few seconds I truely felt alive and present during this session. Thank you for helping me seize this grateful moment today!

[@bethmichalski]

Time and time again your videos inspire me to get up and face how my body and mind are feeling. This practice was much needed and brought me to tears as I listed what I was grateful for in-between breaths. Thank you for helping me focus on the positive, get my body moving, and my mind out of the darkness.

[@CeciliaKautzman]

GREET 🌅 | May 23, 2024 | Love this quick check-in, as always it was just what I needed today! 🙏

[@roxaneconstance4981]

from the moment i stepped on the mat i started crying and it only stopped when you said to let our worries slide off our backs, thanks

[@marionm8213]

will forever be grateful for this. it's always the first thing that comes to mind when she asks to think about something we're grateful for.

[@xmangolacroix]

Adding to what everyone else here is saying: if you are here because you feel lost like you can't go on, just know that you are not alone. There are so many other people out there who have felt the pain you are feeling right now and even though it feels like it's never going to end, I promise you it will get better. There is hope for you. There is light within you still.

[@mandymcneil]

The Universe heard me and this is exactly the video I was needing this morning. I am grateful that I have the resources available to me to go ahead and manage to make the small goals that will help me diminish the blues. I only have enough reserves at the moment to take baby steps but this was such a good start to my day. Thank you.

[@gillsmith6740]

Mandy, I’m with you taking baby steps ☺️🧘🏼‍♀️🙏💕

[@eleanorhg5848]

I laughed sincerely during this practice and that was really important to me today. Thank you for reminding me what I am grateful for Adriene, I am very grateful for you 🙂❤🌈

[@celinemgervin3189]

My Darling Adriene - my friend, I was so sad and melancholy this morning - just a very rare bad day for me who has battled depression all my life. Then I turned to you - after getting lovely cuddles and love and reassurance from my wonderful husband. You invited me to breathe in and out and think of things I'm grateful for. I'm immensely grateful for you, Adriene! Thank you for your sweet, gentle and calming presence in my life. I wish you many rewards for sharing your inner (and outer) beauty with a world of people who love you and who you'll probably never meet! Namaste, my beautiful friend!

[@connellobrien5097]

when you said "let it all fall off of your back" I started to sob that was so beautiful and moving, I am so happy and grateful that I found your page. you are such a warm and welcoming being and its so evident!!! much love, I will absolutely be doing more of yours

[@christinedriessen6274]

Wonderful. I was feeling anxious and down and this little session perked me right up again. Thank you so very much Adrienne 💗

[@mackenziejeter8522]

I have all of your mental health-themed videos in a handy coping playlist for myself, they are so awesome at getting me out of a spiral. Would love to see a full series on yoga for depression someday to add to my list! Thanks Adriene

[@laurenmercurio9738]

i cried through the whole thing and i'm not ready to say the mantra yet, but i still went through all the motions. thank you adriene

[@sarahmclin2434]

I chose to do this today because I am feeling overwhelmed. When you you said, you have this, it was like an emotional damn broke in me. I felt so much rush through me. I am grateful for you, these videos, and this community.

[@dorog2205]

Thank you, from the bottom of my heart. I started this day with a yoga flow with you, and when my mood suddenly dropped in the evening I ended up on your channel again. This is the first time where when I felt depressed, I went to look for comfort, and I knew that I would find it here. I've gotten so many sudden bouts of depression throughout my life, constantly, and I never know what triggers them, but this helped me overcome one tonight. And for that, I'm going to be forever grateful.
