[@susanjayne3]

my word is Refresh - thank you for helping me start each day with a Fresh Beginning. These are tough times, made much easier with yoga and with you Kassandra. I think we don't appreciate enough the moments of stillness and gratitude during our days - now, we kind of have lots of those moments, and for me, I'm really appreciating them. In fact, I might say I'm addicted to them. Thank you. Peace to you and the people closest to you. Namaste.

[@julesrobertsyoursocialpa4364]

My Word is stability right now. Thank you for showing up and being some good stability in this world Kassandra .🌇 I am choosing to make the most of this time to reflect and appreciate and am trying to view the time as a gift rather than worry or stress.🎢 Thank you and looking forward to the challenge in April!! 🙏❤️

[@mollyr.506]

Yoga with Kassandra Thank you, this was just what my body (and mind) needed today. I really appreciate your work! Do you plan on making more of these “hands free” classes? I’m a dental hygienist so my wrists get A LOT of strain from working all day long and sometimes when I do yoga sequences that are downward dog and/or plank heavy it can cause discomfort. I’ve learned to just skip or modify poses to my own comfort level but having a longer sequence like this would be amazing! Thanks again, I hope you’re staying healthy and safe 💜

[@susang8027]

Awesome. Stumble upon your yoga sessions about 3 weeks ago. Love them! Your voice is so soothing & remind me of my favorite yoga instructor from 20 years ago. Thank you for these videos. ❤❤❤❤

[@cmergeai]

A big thank you from Dubai, in lockdown on my balcony , overlooking the ocean, with soothing waves and watching your yoga classes. Am an “advanced” beginner, and your l lessons are just so easy to follow. 👍👍🙏🙏

[@QueenMegaera]

I have a broken hand that's going to be healing for quite some time and I just want to express how grateful I am for every single "hands free yoga" video I've found. They're really saving my wellbeing.

[@hollycreates4565]

Ditto that my friend, I've got a burnt hand and wrist but need yoga for my wellbeing ❤❤

[@brightscales197]

My word is always happy, in the hopes it will be true one day

[@washedupgen]

My word is "boundaries" - setting a boundary around myself as I move throughout the day - not letting anything penetrate these feelings of zen, stillness, contentment, and certainty that I cultivated this morning on the mat :) Thanks Kassandra! Just started your channel last week and it's making this COVID19 time much more bearable while my studio is closed! Namaste.

[@rebeccahenry6052]

You summed it up perfectly 🍃 🙏🏻 I second Alli’s statement

[@yogawithkassandra]

Beautiful!

[@groesbecksgrow9484]

Boundries is a great one! Sometimes this can be difficult for me to remember.

[@jules-wj3hy]

this felt amazing, i hope we can get more wrist free practices 💜

[@moliphant1]

TRUST is my one word intention...reminding me to trust in God when I am stressing over things that are out of my control. Thank you for sharing your gifts and talents!

[@joannelegros-kelly7688]

Great stretch. My word is "laughter "... best medicine... best preventive! 🙏

[@ctkellydevi]

Today my word is "grateful" - grateful for my family, friends, my work and my furbaby coming home soon

[@aileentek]

Pray. We often forget this when we thrive and flourish but in this trying times and in house quarantines we should remember that their is a God and he will not let us down. I just saw your videos 2 days ago and I have tried this since. I have never done Yoga and as I am a beginner, this is perfect for me. Love to you from the Philippines, Kassandra!

[@JulieAAldren]

Loved the goddess pose! Intention: positivity. Being stuck in the house without being able to teach my students in person has been difficult but I'm not going to get stuck in a crummy mood!

[@AdrianeMarie09]

Start a KZbin video where I students can connect with you. They'll love it... or do an Instagram vide

[@jenniebrooks7837]

Hearing you on this one!

[@clouded_elephant_life9505]

My word is “happy”. With everything going on right now I find myself lost in anxiety and worry but yoga helps a lot and Happiness for myself and loved ones is my goal. ❤️ thank you Kassandra!

[@veronicacortes1578]

My word was “productive” I feel being at home for so long this action can get lost especially with working from home. I haven’t been able to do as much house duties but today I will put this into practice.

[@breegutierrez1521]

thanks for the stretch today kassandra! doing this because I got vaccinated yesterday and my arm hurts but I still wanted to exercise 😂 my word today is productive, because I've been really lazy lately and im trying to fix that. have a good day, whoever's reading this :)

[@diadaur7480]

Thank you! I hurt my wrist in a bike accident and had trouble laying out my mat. Finally, after a week, I was happy to go back to yoga with your video! My word was "healthy".

[@ssakowski]

My word is "worthy". After going through a period of anxiety and depression, I questioned my worth and I always put everyone and everything's needs above my own. Now that I am healing, I realize again that I am worth taking care of. Kassandra, I just wanted to let you know that I LOVE your yoga classes! I do at least one a day and I look forward to it everyday! Thank you so much for providing these videos for everyone to use :-) -Sarah, central NJ, USA

[@IgorMarleyBasic]

My word was HOPE, that’s what we need in times like these. But your classes are so great and make our days in isolation easier and better. Thank you 🙏🏽

[@aumpikas30]

Exactly I like hoping

[@bell9930]

my one-word intention: Relaxed!! These classes are so needed right now!! thank you!!

[@yuvrajpardeshi1429]

Excellent is my word for today and everyday, as Bill and Ted said in 1991, Be Excellent to Each Other. Thank you so much for making our day. God bless you

[@purpleheart359]

Word for today -the first official day for me of learning and and transitioning to teaching remotely: determined.

[@yogawithkassandra]

I hope it goes well :)

[@purpleheart359]

@@yogawithkassandra thank you, I appreciate it (:

[@barnicoleboy]

Hi Kassandra, I just wanted to express how much your yoga videos have been keeping me sane and grounded these past few weeks. I was feeling incredibly down and feeling like a victim of everything that is happening but making yoga and meditation a part of my daily routine has truly changed my mindset and helped me face my problems objectively and channel my emotions in a healthy way without neglecting the needs of my body. Thank you so much for all you do to build a community here. Much love 🙏🏼

[@kamiacero5401]

“Productive “ is my word 🙏 Namaste

[@itiswhatitis0304]

Thank you. Calm is my one word.

[@ninanguyen6381]

My word is "calm". Currently working at the hospital and it has been very stressful and intense with what is going on lately in the world. I want to be able maintain my calmness as much as possible. Thank you as always, Kassandra!

[@rachelurkowitz2488]

I love doing these morning classes. It’s so good to take even 10 minutes to really connect with my body

[@michelefreed8031]

Kassandra, you are my absolute favorite yoga teacher online! Could you please please please do another of these "no hands" 10 minute morning sequences? I have injured my hand and I NEED my morning stretch with you but I have already done this one 3 times and your longer no hands video a few times as well. They are both fantastic, but I am getting a bit bored 😂. You would be such a lifesaver. Stay well and safe!

[@lavalientezolo]

Joy. Even when in quarantine, I will try to find joy in the smallest of things.

[@surayyahbellydance3335]

Thank you!! This was a great rest for my aching shoulder. My word is energy. Happy, healing, energy. ❤

[@leonarodenkirchen9490]

My word is 'accomplished'. For even though we are mostly stuck inside, at the end of the day, I want to feel like I have made the best out of ot. :)

[@hvw8557]

I come back to this over and over!😊 My word is Brave✊💚

[@tmoolla9282]

Thank you Kassandra. I have been attending your classes for a couple years now. I love how you have you created all types and styles of yoga classes to accommodate everyone's needs. You are a blessing to all of us! Peace be with you! My word today is "Calm".

[@kz7442]

Good morning. You do not know how much I thank you. You are a blessing from the goddess earth. I am 60 and little by little I lost 90lbs. Your 10 min are amazing. Now I am soothed by your tranquil voice every morning and the one word I have is harmony. Harmony with the earth (humans, animals plants etc.)

[@Cecaay00]

These morning stretches have been so great since I’ve been doing a lot of working from home. Thank you!

Thank you for helping me find the calm in the storm. The word I chose was calm. Stay safe. Namaste 🙏❤

Me too:)

Amen is my one word intention. We are soooo grateful for you Kassandra during this time. Namaste 🧘🏾‍♀️

[@svnj2371]

I do this every second day in the morning so I don’t need to put weight on my wrists each day. Would love more of these wristfree morning classes! Really love your channel 😍

[@karenreuschle9935]

Intention word for today: Connected. Thank you Kassandra. Namaste.

[@amandatkids854]

Good Morning Kassandra! What a lovely way to start my day, thank you so much! And perfect since staying indoors and many projects yesterday had my wrists a little sore. You’re always creating Just want I need without me realizing what that may be. I so appreciate you and am looking forward to your April gift of 30 days. Huge air hug to you!!!

My word of the day is 'relaxed'. I want the stresses of the week to not seep into my day and to enjoy a relaxed Sunday. Namaste xo

[@liltwistedangel69]

My word was "positivity" thanks for the hand less routine, my arthritis was making me discouraged from yoga ♡

[@StagedRightLLC]

Thank you for having yoga sessions available that don't use wrists. I have arthritis in mine and am so thankful to have your sessions to watch! My word today is fun...as I head out for some boat time with friends:-)

[@sillysissyphus4877]

I love your channel Kassandra! You are much more straightforward and less vocal than other KZbin instructors. I appreciate that very much as a young, testosterone driven man who just wants to feel better and focus on what I’m doing during my yoga practice. That is why I made your channel a staple in my pursuit of a healthier mind and body. Thank you very much!

[@claudiadepinto6928]

My word is Happy because I have been having so much anxiety. It’s almost 1 yr since my last chemo treatment & radiation and since then have daily constant hip pain that at times wakes me up at night. Just want to be happy again!

[@linneaneanystrom9283]

My word is “Accomplished”❤️ I love these “no hands yoga”. I have always wanted to try yoga but because of my disability I can’t use my arms as you need in an ordinary yoga class. These videos gives me the opportunity to do yoga and I love it❤️ Thank you for making it possible❤️

[@carolanande1355]

(God's Grace) I know two words but I am so grateful for the yoga morning videos they are priceless

[@FluffyFibers]

Hello Kassandra! Thank you for this class. My word for today is PEACE. Namaste!

Just the practice I needed this AM. My wrist were bothering me a bit from yesterday's class. Peace and health to all.

Completion! I have a final essay to write for a college class, then I get a break! Can't wait.

I have horrible carpal tunnel and this is exactly what I needed. I have been following you for months now. I appreciate you so much! My one word is POWER👏🏼💛✌🏼

[@oggjessica1323]

My word is organized. This morning routine gives so much energy and being confined we need that to get on with the day and not binge watch netflix all day :) thank you I loved this routine!

[@mwholmes2006]

I broke my wrist 5 weeks ago, surgery 4 weeks ago, and I've been doing this one almost daily! Thank you.

[@madebymarlene4772]

First it was happy but I changed it to joy! Thank you creating a practice that I can do while my wrist heals

[@samanthamcforlane144]

I really enjoy your videos first thing in the morning

Loved this short practice. My one word is “bright”

[@laduende8070]

My word was "grateful". Grateful for everything I have, grateful for people who loves me, grateful for new opportunities and challenges. I started to practice Yoga with you in a quarantine. Thank you Kassandra! ❤️

[@dianacasella6389]

I recently had a shoulder dislocation, and this short no hands yoga was perfect! My word for the day is worthy. Thank you and namaste.

[@ericastover5948]

Thank you for this workout! I am 5 weeks post op from a mastectomy and am still restricted with putting weight on my upper body so this was perfect! My word for today is Calm. My neck and shoulders have been incredibly tense and I need to remind myself to take a breathe, say a prayer and be calm.

[@Malaima]

I love you, Kassandra. So damn much. Am training to become a Yin Yoga teacher with You, and have cured my husband's (newlyweds, we are, but he is in his 40's and me in my mid-twenties) back pain with your yin yoga for low back pain class. It is the only one on KZbin that worked. Now I see it in my Yin Yoga book! In the sequences chapter. I love every one of your teachings so much. The video about Meridians changed my life entirely. Gave me so many new concepts to latch on. And to learn from. I also purchased the Moon 23-February Challenge, but finally had not the time to do it... Maybe I can start it in the next New Moon = a.k.a = tomorrow?? I love you so damn much. And, as working with a wrist injury that already healed, and with a tennis elbow that is still healing, while trying to prevent me from getting both of those in my other arm, I LOVE LOVE LOVE that you posted this little invigorating class, and totally loved it. Specially the goddess flow. Will be doing the April challenge for your sake (while changing the wrist-pressure-putting poses to accommodate my needs and respect them fully). Love you so damn much! p.s. is it still possible to do the video to explain what the YTT meant for me? Yours faithfully, Laima.

[@vickistiles8359]

Gentleness - with myself and others. Namaste 🙏

[@luvleeyoga4578]

My word for today is Happy 💛🌞

[@Faith-pp2mm]

I’ve never really done yoga before because I tended to get bored by it, but the past few mornings I’ve been doing your 10 minute morning yoga practices when I wake up and have been enjoying them so much. It’s nice to wake up my body in a gentle stress-free way, set my intentions and channel that energy throughout my day. I’m going to make an effort to make this a habit in my daily routine. This morning’s intention was peace. Thank you for these videos, your practices are the only ones I’ve found myself enjoying!

[@laurenkinley418]

My word was “focus” this morning. Learning to focus on productive things while home with many possible distractions can be trying! Thanks for another great video!

[@felsjo02]

My word for today is "strålande" its swedish for both amazing and sunny ! Namaste

[@wendyjohnston9576]

thank you for the no hands flow!! it helps with arthritic hands to do something everyday?

[@ChrisStrang1972]

Hi Kassandra, my one word intention today is ‘normal’ as our country, New Zealand, goes into lockdown today. I so needed this today and will put it in to my daily routine as I try to work and home school my children. Namaste x

[@sleepykitty1745]

Thank you! I have arm braces and this really helped. My one word intention is fulfilled.

[@nanagoingcrayyyy]

My one word intention was “determined.” Times are hard at the moment but I will prevail and achieve my goals. Thank you!!

[@marleenrooseboomdevries8592]

My intention is: bright. I've had a couple of days where I just felt down and so tired... Today is Saturday, which always has been my favourite day of the week since I was a little kid, and it's sunny and warm - just like those happy spring days. So I want to be just as bright as the beautiful day that today is - if that makes sense. Even when I'm studying for my at home test ;-)

[@hollywebster6844]

Peace is my word. I'm in a lot of pain and other body symptoms from Lyme. I've had a rough few months and I have not been able to do my regular yoga practice because of vertigo and exhaustion. Last night I decided to go back to the beginning of my yoga journey and do maybe 10 minutes - or 5, or 1 - whatever I can tolerate of gentle, daily movement. I'm letting go of grieving for what I've lost and finding peace in what I have in this moment.

[@christinekincaiddewey4791]

Thank you for this one! A broken wrist will keep me from any weight bearing poses on my wrist for a while. Glad to find this.

[@Lisaquel]

I have carpal tunnel syndrome and these no hands classes have been very helpful. My word is relaxed. Thanks form Brazil.

[@gbchrs]

HEALTH was my one intention and this cured my tension headache. Thanks for the wonderful and easy morning Yoga.

[@MindyT135]

Today's word is joy. Hey thanks for this video. My broken wrist has prevented me from doing some of my favorite things, but I'm so glad I found this video. Felt so good to move and stretch!!! Thank you!!!! 😊♡♡♡

[@ejsmamadada]

Thank you so much for this practice, Kassandra. I fractured my elbow 2 months ago and while I’ve made significant progress, putting full weight on my arm is just too much yet. I’m currently doing all of your yoga without hands videos! My word today is, “connection”. I actually chose it after doing one of your affirmation videos! The affirmation was, “I always am connected to my heart”. Thank you, thank you. I am on the path towards recovery.

[@maryhoffman9551]

These hands free classes are wonderful. I have an autoimmune issue that makes putting pressure on my hands very uncomfortable. Thank you!

[@syifaamusa]

i just got my booster shot & my arm is super sore so this practice was very helpful for me to keep up with my daily yoga without overexerting myself thank you so much!

[@catrenarose2131]

Thank you Kassandra🙏🏾💕 I'm going through your 10 minute morning yoga playlist everyday and this one was next, and even though it's no hands I'm still doing the class and I'm still doing downward dog at the end😂 My word today is Family. It's Easter today for me and I just want to have a good time with my family.💜🌸🙏🏾💖🦋 #GoodMorning #GoodEvening

[@shir35303]

My word is Optimistic. As I've just quitted my job recently (before the virus came), this period feels even more confusing and I recognize that my thoughts are more fear-based than they usually are. I'd like to change that and therefore the optimistic word :) Have a beautiful day and thank you for the practice!

[@sdsunnygrl]

My word is calm. In the stretches I breathe the mantra ‘I am safe, I am calm, I choose to show up as the best version of myself.’ Working from home with 3 kids takes stamina and it looks like it’s not over yet... for my kids, for my community and for myself I work to embody the expression Grace under pressure. 💜

[@HeavilyMeditated75]

Just did this for the first time today and absolutely loved it. My word for today is... focus 🙏

[@Wilcox1008]

I found you by searching for wrist free yoga. I felt unable to do anything nearing yoga because my wrists can't bear the weight. I am really enjoying this time every morning. You are slowly helping me become comfortable with the stretches and I really appreciate the strategies for mindfulness and setting an intention every day. Thank you.

[@trkcathouse5]

I am new to yoga during the pandemic and am really enjoying your classes very much!! You have excellent poses and flows and I am feeling much better physically doing your classes! The word I used during this class today to set my intention is Jesus - my source of ALL blessings. God bless you and thank you so much for sharing your talent on your channel!!

[@ainaraarystanbekova5414]

Acceptance- we just gotta get through this, and I’m going to use Yoga to help - Thanks Kassandra!

My one word intention for the day is "bright." I want to bring that energy into the tasks ahead, as well as be that energy for every one I encounter.

[@fb819gaming8]

The word of the day for me is "Calm". Especially in this crisis that we are all facing now. Thanks for the great stretch! Much appreciated! ❤😁🤗👍

[@ericaalston1341]

Thank you Kassandra for this simple and grounding morning practice. My word today is PEACE. I am a teacher and as I meet virtually with my students today, I want to create peace in their hearts in this stressful time. Thank you for your support. I intend to pass it on today!

[@maestrang4467]

My word is Healthy. Due to the current pandemic going on & the overwhelming anxiety/sadness that's grown in me, I've reverted to binging (something I haven't done in awhile) to cope. Binging on food of course has only layered on more negative feelings. I've only exercised once since the quarantine & could barely keep up with that workout which made me intimidated to try another one. Thank you so much for offering a short, but effective, session that did not deter me because it was just 10 minutes. I'm already feeling a lot better & plan on doing another one of your videos right now. I've tried yoga out before, but it has been really hard on my wrists (have a past injury), so I appreciate you providing an alternative. You are very thorough with your explanations & have such a relaxing voice which is perfect to gently start out my day. Keep doing what you're doing because you're helping a lot of people. Namaste 🙏

[@WheezMania]

Thanks for offering “no hands” practice, intention word: Giving

[@plindquist58]

Just what I needed after day #7 of the Morning Yoga Challenge. These are such stressful times. My intention (until the world heals) will be steady. Thanks for all you do. Take care. Be safe and well. 🙏 Namaste

[@marilynbuzolichph.d.4360]

Loving these arm free practices as I recover from shoulder surgery. Thank you

[@phharis88]

Thank you! My word was patience. I am currently recovering from hernia surgery and have been missing my daily yoga practice. You got me into doing 10 minutes of yoga a day and I was doing it consistently for over 90 days before my surgery. It had such a profound sly positive impact on my life. Thank you for helping me get back to a routine with this hands free practice. It was so centering and positive in these uncertain times :)

[@Nanariana]

My word is gratitude 🙏.
