Wind Down Yoga | 25-Minute Calming Yoga Practice

[@yogawithadriene]

I was (super) under the weather when I shot this and I swear Benji could tell. He is an excellent nurse with a gold medal in unconditional love. We should all take extensive notes. Enjoy your practice, my darling friends. Remember, you guide the direction of your energy and you are powerful. Tell me how your practice goes in the comment section down below!

[@Catzgomeow4eva]

Today's practice was awesome! It was nice, and relaxing. My favorite kinds of practices to work on are flexibility and abs. Well, I hope you are feeling better now. You rock!

[@Prisa457]

Get well soon Adrienne

[@Thefitty]

So sorry to hear you were under the weather! You are a beam of light in our eyes :-)

[@drypotatoandjam4180]

Thank you for taking the time for today's practice. Always feeling better quieting the mind on the mat with you. I hope you feel better soon.

[@hopeforested]

My first thought was, go rest up, get better! Thank you for this video, as always.

[@crossbeniz]

Every practice I end: "Yoh, I love this woman." thank you for making me feel good!!

[@gnord360]

That's funny, I end every practice saying "Thank you sweetheart!'' (I'm old enough to be her mom).

[@Britni4795]

I've been following her videos for a while and i always end my practice grateful for her 💕

[@natrisp6809]

Ha! I always end with “thank you darling girl” xx

[@annea8322]

I just ended by saying exactly this to myself!

[@ancaclanca]

Me too!

[@lbktwk]

I feel so privileged to live in a time and a world where Yoga With Adriene exists. Your passion is a gift to all of us and I for one am so very grateful for all that you share of yourself. Thank you for every little thing. 💚

[@chrisandarielles]

"If you're worried if you're doing it right: you're doing it right." This is why I love Yoga with Adriene!! Thanks for helping me not to worry about whether I'm doing it right, but to find what feels good. (Also, your instructions are so good - I know I'm not going to end up doing something that feels bad or hurts me. I've become so much more self aware.)

[@lindsaygfeller9153]

I just want to squeeze Benji! He is so adorable and his face looks like a human in the opening piece. You two have such a bond!

[@kimleblanc2149]

Thank you Adrienne for continuing to supply those with limited budgets (financially and work schedules) with free online classes. You teach well, you help us find our way.....oops yes I hear it....show us all the beauty we possess inside......I sound like Whitney Houston with the The Greatest Love of All ....but seriously...thank you. You have changed me and guided me through some challenging family moments. In fact yes you have made me cry....and for that I thank you deeply. You continue to include us despite your insane and I’m sure exhausting schedule. I would love to do a live class. Does your roadshow consider Canada? Are there enough Canadians in various regions to fill a class? Specifically East Coast, like New Brunswick or Nova Scotia? Either way I’m in for the long haul. K ps annnnd oh my gawd Benji....could you be any more adorable....shheeesh what a doll

[@alyssamcmillan6690]

I couldn’t have said it better I completely agree! It’s such a gift to have her as my yoga coach!

[@beautytastesgreat3207]

Count me in for the Canadian tour! Love you, Adriene!

[@elizabethinthemaking]

I am 100% in for an East Coast class!!! I would be there in an instant :)

[@juliasmithe]

Yes indeed! Thank you for all the live you make better!

[@anne-marieschurman5997]

Oh Nova Scotia please - that would be amazing!

[@elizabethharper547]

I feel like we need a playlist of Benji's cutest vids. This one really is up there! He is so bloody adorable. Namaste🙏

[@senjaabbasi5684]

Who's ready for KISS day 5? Sending love and light to all yogis this morning xx

[@nelliedoyle6922]

I'm here... still going HOME.... hello from Nova Scotia... xx

[@mogain9258]

Yes, Kiss day 5 is the bag. See you on the mat for day 6!

[@bijanlove8000]

ME!!! hahha :)

[@tmntsamurai8488]

Still here. A little behind, but I'm still going. Namaste!

[@arthurg7894]

I LOVE when Adriene sings. I can be still, relax, breathe, smile... but when her humor comes out I feel like it all comes together and I get a rush of pure joy that makes me feel infinitely even better ❤

[@QueenV1891]

yeess when she sings, i sing along 🤣🤣 or when she says close your eyes make a wish 🥰🥰♥

[@debrah.4065]

This has to be one of the cutest intros on YWA.! BENJI is just the sweetest boy ! And the way he leans into you and you into him is so heartwarming ! ❤❤❤💕💕💕

[@sarahrubia22]

One day late, but I'm here. I chose to do some practices on my own, and some days I'll be following a KISS practice. The seed from Home is sprouting, even when I don't feel like showing up on the mat, I take a moment, seat here and suddenly I have (and need) to do it. That's so much for a change. Namaste.

[@xobikinibabiixo]

"I'll let you catch up here." How did you know I still wasn't up yet? You have such a wonderful gift and I thank you for having the courage to share it.

[@Elzie2244]

I can't help but smile every time you say 'smile' during your videos. You are a true inspiration. Namaste 🙏

[@littlespacesuit]

I cried a little with this one. "Move nice and slow; be kind." And the foot massage, as well. Had a rough day today. This helped.💙

[@RoseQueen215]

I'm sorry 😞

[@ErzsCal]

Thank you Adriene ❤️ Day 13 Renew April’21 See you tomorrow 🧘🏻‍♀️ Namaste 🙏🏻

[@johannafrog2684]

Thank you for this wonderful practice! I had a very straining day today and after an exhausting therapy session I just wanted to fall asleep. But I hadn't done yoga today so here I am. This made me smile and also cry a little. I send love your way and to anyone reading this, Namaste ☀️

[@40asan]

💖🙏

[@dansalamone8217]

Adriene I wish I could thank you personally but this will have to do. So thank you so much your channel has changed my life . I haven’t missed a day of yoga in 2 months now. I did “Home” now I’m doing “Dedicate” and also your February calendar. You have the most amazing personality. I wish you and Benji happiness.

[@williamb7275]

Quite relaxing. I am not under the weather but Adriene practicing here is a reminder that we can still make it to the mat with allergies or when we are not feeling our best. Nourish day 14. 406 days in a row.

[@dorotam3286]

I'm not worried if I'm with you Adriene. Thanks for a great practice. Namaste.

[@lasusong8121]

just what the doctor ordered after a challenging day at the ol' virtual office... thank you for connecting: me to my body, my body to the earth, and the earth with all the people practicing together! 🙏 you're simply the best, adriene!

[@ellenrose2855]

I know I was becoming relaxed throughout based on the number of times I farted. And it doesn't echo in my own room the way it does in a studio....!! Thank you

[@davidcox3194]

Good morning all of you beautiful people! Have a most awesome day! Thank you Miss Adriene! 😊❤️

[@PurrfectPurritoMeow]

Happy Monday or Tuesday, everyone! Sending y’all lots of love ❤️ Thanks Adrienne

[@MuciFan11]

i cant with how cute and adorable benji looks at the beginning of this video

[@bernadetteficociello8160]

Adriene you are amazing 😉 thank you 🙏

[@shenphotography__]

I've restarted this video probably 10 times now just to watch Benji's lil face... HE MELTS MY HEART!!!!

[@traciking5835]

I was going to comment the same thing. So cute, and funny!

[@bran3eyedraven840]

[@MadelynsUniverse]

[@noodles99999]

LOL I'm glad I'm not the only one. He looks so saddd

[@theresaolszak8668]

Thank you Adrianne for all you do to bring these yoga videos to the world. ❤️

[@laurak163]

Adrienne, if you are wondering if you are doing it right, you are! Benji is too. Great video!

[@blubirbeed4172]

Here for NOURISH! This is exactly what I needed. My whole body has been so sore, and this brought me a little more ease. Thank you 🖤

[@lucyf7740]

Thank you Benji for taking care of Adriene! xoxo

[@pooyavalinataj2419]

Aaaahhh it was rejuvenating and helped with recalibrating the inner thoughts and outer postures. Easy and enjoyable. Happy that I've done it.

[@tovavikstrom202]

29.6.2019. Just want to let it be known, that after a long period of mental health problems, today I was truly happy. This practice was the perfect way to end the day. Thank you for this great practice, Adriene!

[@riomaeblanco1281]

It is not always about being harder, faster, and stronger just to look better on the outside but rather being mindful of your own sensations and finding what feels good from within 💗 Thank you so much Adriene and namaste 🙏🏻✨

[@elizabethj1982]

sometimes yoga is the only way to make all of my thoughts a bit softer and less overwhelming - thank you adriene

[@natashamakhdoomi3666]

Renew day 13, I felt quite relaxed after the practice, poses were really smooth and easy and I enjoyed every bit of it! ❤namaste❤

[@debjacobson9800]

Thank you Adriene 🧘🏼‍♀️

[@Margrietje]

Yes! Namasté to all the people who are going to do this practice at the same time ❤️❤️❤️

[@Thefitty]

Namaste maegriet!

Oh wow...I was in Canada this summer, my brother and his family live in Nova Scotia. Where do you live?

[@meghabisht3392]

You have your beautiful to connect in every single video. I am grateful that I found yoga with you sweetness! Namaste!

[@suegrodek6375]

I only made it to the mat 12 times this month. I'm ready to turn the page and start fresh with November.

[@auraaguilar9839]

Benji was so adorable in this - looking at you like you're the best thing to ever happen to him! I love this video and would love more 15-25 min short wind down/ bedtime videos like these!

[@loublou5886]

Ahhh delicious end to a busy Sunday 🥰 Nourish day 14 🥰

[@richardkirkpatrick5807]

Thank you Adriene

[@CKMcCloud]

This had everything I love: Adriene's sense of humor, Benji's cuteness, some great twists, and total unwinding!

[@moiramccarthypatterson9069]

this wind down yoga is a true gift from you, Adriene! Just the right balance for a night of rest. You are a sweet angel!! Thank you!!

[@_M_1_]

Started my yoga journey 🧘🏻‍♂️ About a year ago & it has changed my life This is my last practice as a 56 year old & looking forward to many more as a 57 year old, thank you with all my heart Adriene ❤️X

[@williamb7275]

Rather tired today despite having slept nearly eight hours so that little bit of heat in the middle of practice today felt more like a flow practice. Despite the level of energy, I still followed through but do wish I was actually near bedtime instead of the workday! Renew day 13. 181 days in a row.

[@LevkeWedell]

Here for KISS day number 5! What an incredible day. Adriene calling me pretty awesome made me smile, and then we said 'namaste' at the exact same time! Grateful for this day!

[@PijaSvetec]

Thank you Adriene 🤍

[@holiday197]

These videos are extremely helpful in managing my anxiety and stress. I'd love to see Adrienne do 30-60 minute videos with some time for extended Shavanasa. I also attend a Yoga Class each week and love doing Shavanasa where we bring our attention and awareness to every part of our body (toes, fingers, left thigh, right thigh etc). It would really be the cherry on top of these videos.

[@stephella]

Holiday197 she has some of this on her membership :)

[@acrosstheuniverse2691]

always silly, light-hearted, and fun and a great practice. thank you. love your love for Benji!

[@hannahs1553]

This was a welcome practice today during the challenging second wave of the pandemic. I found myself a little emotional at the end, just breathing and thanking myself for showing up on the mat. This community is wonderful ❤️

[@ihram9284]

I love you Adriene. And I love Benji too. I want to thank the both of you for committing to making these beautiful, love filled videos for us!! I appreciate them so much and I know thousands of others do as well. I'm so grateful.

[@Bellavanacoffee]

one of my favorites. tip: double yoga mat under you knee if it hurts in the position. Sharing this one, the singing always makes me smile !

[@sherrielea3005]

Thank you! FYI, just to let you know...Benji is never a distraction for me! Or should I say...he is a happy distraction! I love it when my cat is by my side. Thats what home yoga is about! All for one and One for all! Many Blessings for you and Benji and the FWFG crew!

[@Heatherrobertsoncom]

I just recommended this video to a client of mine 1. Because it is an amazing session and 2. because Benji is just killing me with his cuteness!! Thank you guys xo

[@Vardagaladhiel]

I come back to this practice again and again when I am trying to find some peace, and it hasn’t let me down yet! Things are tough right now as we go through the motions after my mother died a few months ago, but yoga does help. Sending peace and good vibes to everyone practicing 🙏

[@julesthomas6363]

I am following February’s kiss practices and I see today is ‘wind down’ . Initially thought I need to do this later but after such a stressful day yesterday in work I decided to do it before going to work, to help me start a fresh this morning. Well it’s worked and I feel completely relaxed and I feel like yesterday’s drama has been put behind me and today is a brand new day... and breathe thank you 🙏

[@chelseakisil8722]

Superb practice. Thank you 💗

[@Na.29]

Sometimes you only notice that you're not feeling to well once you do yoga, and opening your palms to the sky feels way too vulnerable

[@franciscojerezfernandez5932]

I think that yesterday was a very emotional day and not in a good or nice way so today while I was doing the routine I start crying, I felt stupid and then so grateful because... really don´t know, but thank you.

[@crystalninive]

It's so beautiful when we are being quiet and just breathing with you, and your microphone picks up the sound of your heartbeat. I practice with noise cancelling, bluetooth headphones and I can hear it clearly in several of your exercises. It is very special. Right up next to your heartbeat. Thank you for all you do for us. I am immensely grateful.

[@valeried7204]

Two weeks ago I decided to start doing daily yoga to take care of myself. It’s something I’ve always loved but haven’t done consistently. I’ve watched dozens of videos but this is BY far my favorite I have found! Gives me that little bit of core workout but still brings total peace. Somehow, you remind me to take a breath, rotate my hip etc EXACTLY when I need it every single time! The things you say about letting things from the day go speak so strongly to me as well. You are just an incredible instructor. So intuitive to the needs of those practicing. ❤️

[@sallycheng4687]

Thank you again Adriene! At the point when I looked at my feet and said "I love you" I got a bit teary. Suddenly I realised I should have taken care of my body more and be responsible to my body. Love ourselves by eating better and be more active! Thank you for your reminder! Lots of love!

[@lisadietzel]

Adriene bless you for being continuously awesome!! I use your classes at least once a week and I am so thankful!

[@sofiealbrecht]

A great wind down practice to start the day! Namaste!

[@msmiyuki]

THANK YOU Adriene. You are my go-to exercise/therapy as a person long recovering from an eating disorder. Your yoga is a perfect solution to needing to stay active without triggering thoughts to over exercise. THANK YOU.

[@chiguru99]

good night 11:47pm on a rainy Sunday night from my bedroom in india!my heart is heavy and the beginnings of a lump fills my throat. i will have a challenging week ahead with college exams and a family member's surgery. im truly grateful for this practice. for yoga. for adriene.

[@WiscoGirl]

I didn’t know it was possible, but Benji was even more adorable in this video! Such a sweetheart. Thank you for another great practice, Adriene!!! ✨✨✨

[@Everymanspeaks]

Oh, I felt the Benji love today when you stroked him. His eyes said it all!!! I also laughed more than I've ever laughed during your videos when you did your impersonation. This was EXACTLY what I needed today!!! Thank you so much Adriene and Benji!!!

[@danielleclimpson9035]

Very much needed! Thank you so much :)

[@Twilightfan1013]

Another couple of days without your yoga as my neck was sooo sore and got the green light 4 yoga!!! I missed it so much! Sooo, i m back Babyyy!!! Sooo, this theme week is perfect!!! Rest!!!👻😺🤩 we allll so neeed this at time to restore our Energy!!! Thksss Ad!!!xxx

[@kajaing1306]

KISS DAY 5 (36): Benji is so cute! Really handsome boy and I can't belive how calm and peaceful he is. Also loved the practice. Right now I am studying for exam of a really hard subject in collage and winding down is exacly what I need. Namaste 🙏🏻

[@shannonkelley4254]

thank you!

[@nathanbrand4607]

I've done this flow more than once now and I always seem to come back to it when I really need it the universe brings it back around I've been going through so real toughness lately but I know yoga always has my back and I'm always safe on my mat no matter what's going on just to take that bit of time and let it All Fall away Namaste 🙏

[@helmijarvinen]

I felt frustrated after a sport performance but I managed to think it through and calm down on the mat. Now I remember that it's okay to feel frustrated. I'm aiming to be honest and humble to learn from the mistakes that frustrate me and after that I'll just move on. Now that I've learned the lesson, it's more productive to just move on and not be so hard on myself. I'm so lucky in the grand scheme of things. Lots of gratitude for you, Adriene and the whole YWA community. You inspire me to be the best version of myself❤

[@Marikac86]

Adriene I miss your videos! Now that I’m pregnant I’ve been looking for prenatal yoga videos, and Nothing compares to yours. I can’t say enough how amazing a gift you have given to me for the past 5 years and so many others. I miss your guidance and calm. Please please make a true pregnancy series. Pregnant mamas need you more during this phase than ever. Sending you and Benji so much love.

[@alorange5697]

I had a lovely sleep last night after doing this session before bed. I've suffered with insomnia all my life, so this is a very precious gift. Thank you.

[@karenverge4459]

This was my very first practice with you but it won't be my last - Fabulous thank you.

[@rachv8577]

fastest 25 min of my life- lovely practice, I feel ready for bed now

[@chloepemberton7325]

I agree!

[@janedoe9940]

Dear lovely Adriene, your practices have brought me so much peace, love and personal power! Please, take the time to take care of yourself. Get this throat checked, find out what your body wants from you and just make it healthy and happy. Our body is incredibly wise and sometimes it makes us go trough rough times, just to teach us something or even to protect us from something. I have a nasty chronicle illness, I spend a lot of time around doctors and I know it sucks, but sometimes it's the only thing that helps. So please, don't ignore whatever is going on, make sure you do what it needs to be done and don't worry if you need to rest - the connection you have with us, the people who you really really inspire will remain. Thank you so much for this lovely practice and tons of kisses for Benji!

[@yogawithadriene]

Thank you, my sweet friend. xo

Beautiful! My gratitude goes out to you, Adriene :) Sending everyone lots of love and wishing an amazing Tuesday to all of my fellow RENEW people

[@erdazin]

I decided to continue my 30 day yoga journey with any video the algorithm offers me from your channel. After a long and very stressful week this was my Friday morning routine and shed a few tears on my mat. This was really an unwind moment, you are an awesome person, I love you!

[@oliviafinkart]

i love practicing videos with my airpods in because i can hear adriene's heart beating. :)

[@ErzsCal]

Thank you Adriene🌷 Day 28 Joy 😊 Namaste 🙏🏻

[@nickshergar]

My three favourite things..... Yoga with Adrienne, Adriene and BENJI !!! That smile just starts the day great 😀👍 THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS LESSON :)

[@annapos7195]

Thank you Adrienne I love your bedtime yoga videos. I often suffer from insomnia so this video really helps me fall into a nice deep sleep

[@jakeevans6]

I'm pretty new to yoga, but your videos have been mad helpful. My favorite aspect is the act of telling yourself I love you. And thanking yourself. It's open my mind to a whole different aspect of love and thankfulness. So, thank you for that.

[@kanzariza2982]

Is it normal if i cried during the "say to yourself 'i love you'" session, because at that moment i feel like today i overworked myself and this little time makes me realize that i need to stop for a sec to just appreciate myself once in a while. thank you so much Adriene for those moments. I know this is an old video but still my go to!

[@kristinsalome1024]

I am utterly grateful that you are now a part of my life Adriene! You, and the community surrounding you, are simply amazing. Thank you for being the person you are and making the world a more loving place everyday!!!

[@CP-gq5fw]

Hi Adriene! I was diagnosed with osteoarthritis in my spine 😔I can’t exercise like I used to due to numbness in my feet and pain in my neck and arms. However, I still manage to do some form of exercises, but I noticed that yoga is by far the best medicine my body is responding to. From the bottom of my heart ❤️ thank you so much!

[@christinarave]

Third day of fog and rain. Missing the sun light. This lovely practice gave me the lift I needed. And so did Benji. A sweet, calm and balancing practice to restore perspective. You are a ray of sunshine. Have a beautiful day 😊 💕 💓 💕

[@connierodgers4659]

Awesome, as always. Thank you Adriene :)

[@aprilknopp]

I'm a nurse too. Much thanks for the therapeutic bed-time sequence tonight!

[@rosemarylemos81]

Continuing to renew. Thank you both for a great practice. Pollen count is high here in England today!

[@ryanschofer152]

Thanks I feel relaxed and calm

[@Dagmargordon]

It’s like you read my mind, all the moves were welcomed with an open heart. Thank you

[@hannahclarke2611]

I never liked yoga until my friend introduced me to your channel. Your authenticity shines through like sun beams! You have made me appreciate yoga for the beautiful lifestyle practice it is. I hope you see this. Thank you Adrienne

[@gemmagem257]

Benjis face at the begging is priceless 🤩🤩🤩🤩

[@janetladybug5076]

The reason I LOVE Adriene, is her authenticity. It feels like she is with me in person.

[@amandaolivia2915]

Benji is so cuuute!!
