I remember doing this flow almost everyday about 4 years ago. Then covid hit I lost my job and I became depressed and developed a drinking problem. I quit doing yoga and gained about 40 pounds in the last 3 years. But I’m now a month sober and started doing yoga again and I’ve returned to this video. I love that even though I’m heavier and less flexible I don’t feel bad about myself doing this I just feel at peace again and feel challenged but not weak thank you Adriene ❤

I went to a yoga class with my new roommate yesterday, and the teacher cancelled right before the class was supposed to start. We were told we could still use the room though so I pulled out my phone and put on this video so the time we carved out wouldn't go to waste. Two other women who were supposed to go to the same class ended up joining us, and we had a beautiful little community yoga flow for 40 mins. Thank you for helping us make new friends and get our yoga time in!

Hey Adriene, I am here for the August 2021 Calendar. Just want to let you know, I never did Yoga in my life and in March I randomly decided to start following your calendars while going through a really difficult time in my life. My entire life has changed, my mentality is strong and I am so much more confident. I cannot thank you enough for how much strength and peace you have given me.

I had set a goal to learn it and hold it for 3 seconds and I just did it!! I did it 3 times! At 62, I am challenging my body in new ways thanks to Adriane and her non-intimidating, fun, and compassionate ways of teaching. I am over the moon right now! Tomorrow I start working on holding for 5 seconds!! Wishing everyone a day full of joy!!

Energize Day 11, 59 days in a row. While´doing some research and scrolling through a bunch of comments yesterday, I came across one stating that this person was in a wheelchair but watched all your videos anyway and tried to go along the poses seated. If there was a pose they couldn't do, they just sat still and connected to their breath. I tried that out today with this video and I feel so much better about myself. There are still some poses I need to figure out, since sometimes my hip hurt even tho I was sitting or lying down, but it's definitely an improvement. Unfortunately I wasn't able to find the comment again, but if this person is reading this, a huge thank you for your inspiration. Also if anyone else has tips on how to modify poses so they only tend to the upper body, please leave a comment!

After practicing everyday for almost three years I am now happy that I can integrate my body into one moving part no longer asking "what Adriene?" I noticed myself automatically correcting foot placement, core engaging, and neck awareness throughout the practice even if I am laughing at Adriene's wit and humor although I still wobble, stumble, and fall I know that I am in progress and what is more important is the good feeling after every practice. Happy weekend everyone May you have a restful day to have an awesome week ahead Stay motivated See you all tomorrow Thank you Adriene Namaste 🙏🏼

This senior yogi had such fun with this practice. I stayed curious for another full class. To see myself through to the end Adriene, I matched your breathing, keeping it slow. After a while I did skip the vinyasa flow and went straight to download dog for a little peddle and it felt so good. I got really into the moment and forgot the time and we were soon into that yummy cool down.

[@gillsmith6740]

I have been worrying about your pain demons Laura, realising the last few days were maybe a bit too much of a challenge and hoping you could find some gentle yoga to substitute and keep you happy 🙏 Today’s practice may tempt you because Adriene has her comfy gear on which is a good sign for no vinyasa flows and I think she was sending you vibes to get on the mat 😂 ! So I’m sending you good vibes too and some 💕 maybe you’ll give it a go and just breathe deep 🧘🏼‍♀️🙏

@@gillsmith6740 Gill, I burst into tears reading your message. Yes, you’ve got it exactly. Thank you so much for your compassionate understanding ♥️ I felt so touched and cared about. I think had I not been carrying the demons this week, I might have taken myself less seriously. I was making very dramatic statements about my abilities and “progress” (or lack there-of). I’d forgotten I’m happier when progress is not a part of the equation. When I’m just trying to stay safe, and move at the same time, that’s what feels good. I’m a special Ed teacher and I always tell my students they don’t have to be better than they were before they just have to “be”. I need to take my own advice. I am sending you a hug and I am so happy to know Adriene in comfy clothes is waiting for me tomorrow morning! Thank you for turning my month around 🖤🌈💚🍀

It’s all about a daily practice to stay connected, I couldn’t miss a day. Thankfully I’m lucky I’m in control of my meds at the moment which has helped me through the last few days.

I chose to be strong as my intention - and so I was. The daily practice since January paid of soooo much and I am stronger and more focused than I thought. This practice is more advanced but I was able to flow with you super easily. Yes, I'm proud of myself. 💘 Thank you Adriene. Can't wait to experience what August with Cultivate has in store for us🙏

[@lisafireheart3940]

I felt the same way! I'm proud of us, hehe:)

This was great and strenghtening to start August our mission to cultivate attention and intention by guiding toward health which most matters most to me! I realized how the journey helped me improve since when I first did this seemed quite quick and couldn't follow Adriene but today everything went smoothly! Namaste🥰❤ CULTIVATE DAY 1

[@andywalnuts8342]

I'm all warmed up now! This practice was a little quicker than the usual pace I'm used to with Adriene, but still achieved the desired feeling I was looking for. Thank you!

[@nicoleblackburn700]

What a beautiful practice! I have been doing YWA for over a year now and have been doing YWA every single day with you beautiful people since Breathe. My intention today was to not be too hard on myself, and today was the first day I was able to float in crows pose!! This has always been a big yoga goal of mine and landing this pose today made me cry a few tears of joy. Adriene- you have been such a huge and amazing light in my spiritual life and recovery! Namaste

[@erim8867]

I saw this video and thought "this is going to be a tough day". I was dreading it. To my surprise, after having been doing the daily yoga since the beginning of the year, I made it, and with ease! I feel so glad I showed up today

[@marionexley7355]

I felt exactly the same.

Woo!! That blew any lethargy away. Sending best wishes and salutations to you and your mum for her continued recovery. Have a beautiful day 😊 💕💓💕

Cultivate - Day 1… Love this practice and perfect way to my Sunny Sunday… Feeling strong & finding some grace in my practice at last. 💕😊🙏 xxx

[@valaya.3]

For the first time, I actually didn't have any last final movements that I wanted to take before shavasana! I said aloud, "Nope! You filled me up!" What a full and exhilarating practice. There were multiple moments in which I was ready to go into a certain pose, and then you led us right into that pose! Thank you!

My heart goes out to Adriene and her whole family and to all of the yoga family around the world 🌍, Namaste 🙏

I thought this one looked familiar, I was also doing the courage calendar. It’s great to know there are people around the world doing the same thing I am :)

[@williamb7275]

How is everyone today? Breath, Bridge and YWA family, get ready for a little heat. And if you are finished, what did you think? I for one may just skip my exercise practice at least till after work as I feel like I have already exercised! I had never done this particular video before. Despite space limitations which required moving my butt this way or that, I quite enjoyed stretching one leg out to each side when doing those bent leg twists towards the end of the practice. FYI, you may need to raise the volume on this one as it seemed lower to me given she is outside.🙏 Move day 8. 155 days in a row with Adriene.

I was with you with this one William, another full class, I stayed curious and it was great ! 🙏

I've recently gotten back into the practice but figured following along with Cultivate in August would cement the daily habit :) The longer practices tend to be difficult for me (this was no exception) but I kept at it and now I fell ready for the day!

Hi Adrienne, I’m here for June 2022 Energize Calendar. Love this video! It was fun, energetic and a proper workout. I come back to this one a lot as it is a good measure as to how much I’ve improved each time. Please make more challenging 40 min videos like this. Thank you for all that you do. Namaste🙏💕

[@tonyrodriguez2524]

Weee doggie! Been on vacation for the past 15 days in an RV where one cannot do yoga, so I tried it outside and became the main menu for gnats. So, this is the first workout and it was a great session. Arms feel heavy. Quads got a great workout and as always the core received a good workout. Now to enjoy the day! Gracias nena!

[@amydelprete1820]

I've enjoyed the last two Move practices so much, they seemed geared to my mood and physical needs. Also I am enjoying seeing and feeling the change in myself. What she said the reward being in the way one persists when the going is hard. Namaste fellow yogis😘Definite mood elevator.

[@Theoryandstrings]

The journey is truly a reward with you, Adriene! Thank you for this practice.

Adriene, Thank you so much sharing your knowledge and teaching online, I am 62 and have worked out in gyms for 40+ years. During the quarantine I did nothing for 4 weeks and my hips felt locked up. Your classes are really helping my physical movement and mental awareness. Please keep sharing you classes are very beneficial.

I dont usuallyeave comments but I came here to tell you that I have been suffering from muscle stiffness in the lower back from a year and no matter how much I stretch the stiffness kept coming back. Today was the day I realized I needed to strengthen my muscles and while looking for a video that would tell me how I could do that, stumbled upon this. Adrienne your videos have been helping me so much to keep me mentally, physically strong. Thank you.

[@RobertaA7]

THANKYOU, Adriene. I loved that! That's the end of June 2023... Looking forward to Expand for July 2023 xxx

[@lusavy]

Awesome start to the August calendar! I'm actually on day 35 on yoga every day today and I feel so much stronger than when I started! Some poses were tricky but the whole thing felt very doable which is crazy. I'm getting so close to holding a crow now, I can get both legs up for about 2 seconds before I fall but I know that one day I'll get it.

[@noi_den]

This was a great practice after a couple of days having a flare up of an old neck/shoulder injury. I'm finally recovered enough and feel strong enough to do a full yoga class in addition to physical therapy for said neck/shoulder injury. This was gentle enough to do almost all the poses, sans crow, but strong enough I still feel like I got a good stretch and built up some heat. Those days where I can't do the kind of yoga I enjoy most are always hard, but I've learned over the years it's better to take it easy when the body needs recovery so I can get back to doing what I love most sooner. I have to remind myself that a practice like this might be easy for me now, but fifteen years ago, twenty years ago, this would have definitely been too hard! Doing this class today made me grateful for my progress; we don't always see it day to day, but from day one to now the difference is enormous. This was just what I needed!

[@kichicat2127]

Embody Day 13, whew that got me sweating, I felt a bit stronger in my crow practice and successfully got one toe off the ground! Building strength today and feeling good! Namaste 💙🙏😊

I`'ve been doing yoga with Adriene almost daily for two and a half months. Today I felt so strong throughout my practice, stronger than I've ever felt before and it really surprised me. Thank you Adriene for guiding me in this journey. I will definitely be redoing this video many times in the future :)

I put down the weights and found my practice again with Adriene. I always walk away from yoga and it always calls me back. I digress, feeling super strong.

[@kathryn513]

Here again for June 2022 Energize. The practice flew by and I still got surprised by how you snuck us into crow pose. Getting stronger and even lasted longer than 0.5 seconds in that pose! You’re a wonderful guide. The journey IS the reward! 🙏🏻

[@anamariamargaritasalvador3438]

Yoga with Adriene has become a habit for me. I started when I had to stay at home as lockdowns were imposed in our country when the pandemic started in March 2020. I'm still at it now. Thanks, Adriene! You don't know how much you have been part of what's keeping me sane, healthy, and strong :)

Day 1 of the cultivate calendar complete! I appreciated this sweat session so much! The strength I feel from months of YWA practices keeps me going. Tomorrow I'm visiting my sister and I told her to make sure her yoga mat was ready because I wanted to share a few days of yoga with her in hopes she'd get hooked like I am. Happy August friends!

In honour of our new month, this senior yogi worked through this full body workout, meeting my edge but being mindful.

Happy August! This was a long one and I’m so impressed you did it all! What do you want to cultivate this month the most? I channeled my inner sloth this morning and moved slowly. I rested and drank water through most of the middle. I thought of you this morning and try to make it fun by seeing how I could incorporate poses that I knew I could do from other practices. I think it really helped! I don’t feel discouraged. I kept thinking of that Mary Poppins song spoonful of sugar. Here’s to another month! 🫖☕️🧉☕️

Laura, so proud of you for doing this full practice 👏👏 and loved how you adapted to make you happy 😃👍 like I did instead of Crow, I did a steady Toe Stand with hands together at my heart, elbows pressing into knees and ‘gazed into my pool’ 🤣 yes, for this month I need better arm strength, more flexibility and my usual core work to keep me strong with no back pain, then I’ll be a happy yogi 🧘🏼‍♀️ 😁 so pleased to see you back on the mat 🙏🏻💕 Cultivate looks good, come when you can, I might swap Deepen & Flow 🤔 ? 🧘🏼‍♀️🙏🏻😊
