I am 19 year old with lupus trying to exercise but every video that I followed left me with a lot of muscle pain. This was so relaxing and gentle for my body. Exactly what I need it. Thank you

[@YogawithJoelle]

I'm so happy to hear this Nahomy, thank you for sharing your experience 🌟

[@Aascvbh]

You just followed Yogi & yantra channel Good yoga channel

[@AmyHurley-e5r]

I feel the same way I'm 48 eight and had a seizure and I beleive it made my lupus flare really bad

[@MadAliceInWonderland]

Thank you for this. I have lupus with a lot of joint pain. I attempted to do other exercise routines. Beginner, low impact, even arthritis. I assumed the arthritis one at least would be easy on me, but no. As embarrassing as this is, I cried doing the arthritis routine; the instructor said that the exercise we were doing should feel good and I was in immense pain. But then I found this video. And while there may have been times I felt strained, this was leagues better than anything I've tried prior, so thank you.

[@YogawithJoelle]

Thank you for sharing your experience. I’m truly sorry to hear about the struggles you’ve faced, but I’m so glad this routine brought you some relief. I hope this continues to help ✨

[@sweetchinmusic3]

Namaste, I am grateful that the universal, all embracing and ancient wisdom of India and Hinduism ( yoga and meditation) is being appreciated and adapted all over the world now...

[@YogawithJoelle]

Namaste! 😃

[@JuiciiDynamite]

At the beginning of this exercise, I couldn’t cross my legs. But at the end i could!! I will try this every day. Thank you.

[@YogawithJoelle]

That's FANTASTIC, great job Erica!! 🌟 If you'd like I also have a specific practice to help with sitting cross-legged, in case it's helpful: kzbin.info/www/bejne/oXPToYiHfqyArZI

[@reemkazim6811]

After months of just doing physiotherapy and hydrotherapy in the pool after getting off my wheelchair, it was so relieving to find a page that does gentle yoga for the joints and lupus. Thank you for this, really 🙏🏼 even though i was still restricted in some of the movements, the fact that I could kind of go back to stretching was such a great feeling. Looking forward to trying your fibromyalgia course.

[@YogawithJoelle]

This is so wonderful to hear! Thank you for practicing with me, and a big WELL DONE to you for getting back to stretching! Look forward to seeing you in the fibromyalgia program 🙏🏼😊

[@artnijna4607]

Hello! I was diagnosed with Lupus at 16 and at 32 it's definitely still a battle for me. I've done two days of this practice before work or on my breaks at home and I can already feel the tension release. I'm def gonna go try the fibro one you have. Thank you so much for making this video.

[@YogawithJoelle]

Wonderful! I'm very happy to hear it's helping, look forward to practicing with you again soon :)

[@nicoleluna4163]

Your voice and pace was exactly what I needed while I was having a flare up. Thank you for making such wonderful and thoughtful videos 💚

[@YogawithJoelle]

Thank you so much for the kind words, they mean so much! I'm so glad to have you here ✨

[@jamelleHEARTSlife]

Thanks for this video! And to the other commenters, I’m proud of you.

[@YogawithJoelle]

You're very welcome!

[@annaguinn1242]

This video was an absolute game changer for me! I have a very rare autoimmune condition and no clear diagnosis besides polymyositis and symptoms like RA, and I do this routine every other day. It almost completely eliminated the lower back pain I was experiencing, helped me become stronger and more flexible, and is very relaxing. Thankfully this is one of the first I tried and I've just stuck with it since it's so amazing! Thank you for all you do ❤

[@YogawithJoelle]

Hi Anna, thank you for sharing your experience! I'm so glad to hear that the routine has been such a positive game changer for you. Keep up the great work, and I'm wishing you continued progress and well-being on your journey!

Thank you! It was exactly what a lupusögirl needed on this February night!

[@YogawithJoelle]

That's wonderful to hear. Well done Ekaterina!

[@vedinvalentinapo]

This was lovely for my chronic pain! I have muscle spasms which yoga often triggers but this was great (other than lifting the legs, my mobility is very limited right now and that caused my left leg to spasm). Much thanks and I’m definitely going to use your other videos for pain, very appreciative!

[@YogawithJoelle]

You're so welcome Valentina! Thank you for practicing with me, and well done to you✨

[@lindapriebe9011]

So gentle and yet I’ve done at least something beneficial. Thank you! 🥰

THANK YOU for understanding my 50 yo lupus body needs to exercise as an easier pace than non-autoimmune people. 🥰

I came here for help at 11pm I was having really bad back pain from my lupus flare up and I was balling in pain and looked up yoga for lupus and I tried yours and within the first 5 min of stretching the pain went away and I was able to move more and wasn't so stiff or in as much pain I cried more from relief thank u

loved this session.. can you make video for myositis patients as well ? it will be helpful

[@YogawithJoelle]

So glad you liked it! I'm afraid I'm not familiar with myositis, but you might enjoy having a look through my chronic pain playlist, as all of these are very gentle and many are of a similar nature: kzbin.info/aero/PL9wzuXltV200U9GfONbt7FXtsiE4VnCaI

[@Zeenia76]

Excellent and very relaxing. I suffer from acute trichotillomania, which is a form of auto immune disease. Do you have any yoga exercises for that?

[@YogawithJoelle]

I'm glad it helped you relax! I'm not familiar with trichotillomania, but I suggest you check out the order videos in my chronic pain playlist, as quite a few of them may be enjoyable as well : kzbin.info/aero/PL9wzuXltV200U9GfONbt7FXtsiE4VnCaI

[@briannaparson2533]

I just got diagnosed with lupus and hashimoto’s… I’m in so much pain when should I start these practices?? It seems like anything I do I hurt myself more.

[@YogawithJoelle]

I'm so sorry to hear you are in pain. This is designed to be a very gentle practice, so you're welcome to try it and listen to your body to find out if it's too much for you. But of course I always recommend speaking with your medical professional for more personalized advice.

[@piggies.254]

I loved this. So soothing and some great stretches too.

[@YogawithJoelle]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@courtland6227]

Would you be open to doing a stretching video for Achilles’ tendon tightness/discomfort. Mine has been bothering me and I can’t find a lot of videos for stretching it.

[@YogawithJoelle]

Great question! That's indeed a tricky one to get at. Have you tried my Yoga for Calves (kzbin.info/www/bejne/sIHdhJ6CfdVsrdU) or Yoga for Feet (kzbin.info/www/bejne/b3jMfXirpa-kapI) videos yet? Both of them have some good stretches that should help to get at the Achilles. I'd recommend trying the calves one first - let me know if it helps! 🍀

[@courtland6227]

@@YogawithJoelle I’ll try them! Thank you!

[@melindanorman5743]

I wanted to like this because many yoga practices are hard for me but this was extremely uncomfortable for my stomach. Would love some stomach friendly yoga practices.

[@YogawithJoelle]

I am so sorry to hear that. Thanks so much for the suggestion! I’ll definitely keep this in mind. In the meantime, if you search 'Yoga with Joëlle stomach pain' on KZbin, you’ll find a couple of practices that might be helpful. 🙏

[@pollypocket_84]

Hi I was wondering what type of pillow you are using in this video or if you can provide the link for it please? Thanks

[@YogawithJoelle]

Hi Polly, it's actually just a pillow off of couch, but if you search for a flat yoga bolster on Amazon or anywhere else it should be about the same size! Hope that helps

Good one
