  1. Adrienne. At. 10. 20 in England
    You pop up on my screen.
    What a blessing. That was
    Feeling low heavy with issues.
    Yes that what I need right now
    So I. With you.
    Love. Xxxx

  2. Getting truly inspired and finding my.feet on my.yoga practice. Thank you thank you Adriene from the Warm Heart of Africa Malawi

    1. As soon as I saw the words "Warm Heart of Africa ", my attention was caught. I lived in Limbe, Malawi from 1969 to ~ 1976, and, in fact was, where I discovered yoga... What a beautiful country, with beautiful people! Greetings!

  3. A few of my friends chuckled that I decided to give up coffee and self-doubt for lent, but this video made me feel even better and more supported by my decision to consciously let go of doubtful behaviors. Thank you, as always, for the yummy, cleansing practice!

    1. I LOVE this Candace. I gave up gluten for Lent, but now adding self doubt too. Great idea, thanks!
      The past few months have been a bit of an emotional roller coaster but I am so grateful to have found Adriene and a daily yoga practice. Big love to all!

  4. Appreciating you, Adriene, in the stillness of the early morning---after a night of little sleep, I am here, showing up for today, with a deep knowing that I am right where I need to be in this moment.

    Thank you for your closing words---"trust. this is a mere moment in time" such a gentle reminder that if we sit with this moment, it will pass---but it's teaching will live on to guide us.

    Gratitude for all you do! Wishing everyone a wonderful day!

  5. Thank you, Adriene! I cannot tell you how much I’ve enjoyed your videos since my Strava running group did your 30-day sequence last month. Hooked from the start! My only problem is choosing which one to do, with so many wonderful options.

  6. “Maybe the thing you were worried about did’t actually need to be worried about.” Adriene, it may not be eloquent but exactly what I needed to hear. Continue to be an inspiration! I share your work all the time.

  7. Awesome practice today! Getting to the core of what keeps us from being gentle and loving ourselves.

    Namaste all!

  8. Perfect for today. I have been plagued with health issues and w as down on myself because I had not done my practice for 2 days. This picked me back up!

  9. I never thought I would take up this type of Yoga.... now I look forward to it every morning. Thank you for your time and energy -
    Peace

  10. Thank you so much, Adriene. One of my new year's resolutions is strengthening strategies for pushing back self-doubt. This was exactly the practice I needed today and is going right into my toolkit! Good thing you can't wear out YouTube videos!

  11. I needed this today. I was crying before I got on my mat because I was riddled with self doubt. Without even knowing what the theme was for today, I chose to just get on my mat and vowed to let go of it all. What beautiful synchronicity to see that the theme aligned!!!

  12. How do you know?!?
    Bad night with heavy issues and, in order, up comes Day 10!
    Makes me realize that I am not alone.
    Hurray for universal energy!

  13. Turned on my computer this morning already worried about my 13 yr old son and this was today's practice! I invited him to join me to do the alternate nostril breathing knowing how it always makes me feel better about life in general and he ended up staying through the practice - it was a mini game of Twister trying to share my mat with my quickly growing boy and we both giggled together. My heart warming. After he said that he wanted to remember the breathing and that with each deep breath he felt like his "brain was able to swim". Love it! Love you! Thanks for always "knowing" what we in the community seem to need for that day - the universe does provide if we keep our hearts and minds open, doesn't it?

  14. Thank You Adriene for your teachings. And for always reminding us that you, the practice and the kula have our back. Please know that truly- we have yours too!

    Thank you for this practice and for your energy <3

    SHINE ON!

  15. Perfect, Adriene. Like many others, this is just what I needed this morning. Thank you! I hope you enjoy a fabulous week ahead.

  16. I just got home from the mountains, where we've been relaxing. So good!
    Every time I get your email I read them, and then I watch most of the video, and I scroll through it too.
    I like to see what new you do, what to expect and to plan my sessions with YWA 🙂

    Can't wait to do this one !!! Have a great week 🙂

  17. Thank you very much Adriene,
    After a long day of meetings, this practice was what I needed.
    I wish you all what make you happy!

  18. Thank you so much Adriene!! This wonderful practice was perfect. I have been struggling with anxiety and self-doubt for so long, I have to remember to just trust my intuition and gut. It is amazing how you always seem to have the right thing to say at just the right moment....it is truly a gift! Sending you and Benji lots of love.

  19. I found myself crying after many of your pratices. Your comments along the pratice are so relevant.
    Today, this was exactly what i needed.

    Thank you!

  20. Hi Adriene
    I have been doing yoga in occasional classes and sporadic home practice for about 10 years but never really got into a satisfying groove. However, I discovered you on YouTube at the end of last year and have been doing my yoga practice with you pretty much every day since. I haven't ever commented on your videos (until now) but I just wanted to thank you for being such a breath of fresh air. Without wishing to be too cheesy, you and your yoga videos have given me a huge amount of strength (mental, emotional and physical) and you have made an enormous difference to my life. I have cried and laughed on the mat with you and you have helped me find the joy in the self-discipline of regular daily practice. I am so grateful to you over there in Austin! Namaste from London, UK.

    1. Claire, I couldn't have said it better. Thank you!
      Adriene, what you share has made an impact on my life and on the lives of countless others. Thank you.

  21. This was perfect. I am working on a tricky relationship - and more to the point, I am letting go of judgement. I have had some self doubt and this practice is certainly helping me to realise that I am on the right track. Thanks Adriene. From rural Australia.

  22. Just did this session on the beach in a bathing suit surrounded by people with no shame....something I couldn't do before I started with you....thanks so much for helping me in my journey!

  23. Thank you Adrienne your practices are amazing. Even if I have snot going everywhere just as well it is a home practice .i am doing my practice on a boat in central Qld Australia to a gentle rocking motion it is very calming and relaxing after just completing your practice

  24. I cannot even *begin* to express how excited I am to hear you are incorporating Kundalini into your programs. I being YTT in just two weeks, and while I depend on you for my daily home study, I fortify it with a little Kundalini, which I hope someday to teach as well as alignment based Vinyasa. You're such an inspiration. Thank you for all you do to make the world a better place. 🙂 Namaste!

  25. 9.30am in Vanuatu, South Pacific. Woke feeling a little blue and low in energy.

    This was beautiful for me today. Lifted my spirits and opened my heart.

    Thank you once again, you beautiful soul Adriene. xxx

  26. Was perfect for today. Sad day for me, picked up my spirits.
    Love doing yoga with you.
    Has done wonders for my husband too.

  27. I really needed this today! I've been wrestling with self-doubt this past week!! Thank you Adriene...I appreciate you!!

  28. Thank you for that short but sweet video, I have been racked by a crazy fear filled day and it helps to remind myself that I am in control, if I can't do anything else, I can breathe.

  29. I have been practicing yoga alongside your videos for quite a few years now, and realized I've never reached out to tell you how much I enjoy them. So thank you, Adriene, for doing this work and reaching so many of us on a personal level. Your warmth and humor make even the self- doubt practice a positive one. 🙂 I like how you help to address real challenges, like self-doubt, and teacher stress, without judgment. I am very grateful for you and you sharing your practice and expertise as a teacher. Namaste.

  30. “Lift your legs. Just do it! Cross your feet. Just do it!”

    Adriene, your careful explanations, coupled with a brightness for life, have made a huge difference in my daily practice. I had the flexibility but I was leaving out self-love. I want to take care of the body, mind, soul that has carried me here and these videos are the best tool to do that.

    Thank you ✨

  31. Just what I needed right now. I feel better after the practice. Thank you, Adriene. Love you.

  32. What a potential we all have, you always find a way to light the sun inside of me, you always find a way to arrive to me! Thank you Adriene

  33. Thank you, Adreine! You are always there and this daily practice means so much to me! It has lifted me up!

  34. Adriene, you are such an integral part of my day and life. Thank you for taking the time to share your love and passion. p.s I love my "Self love" sweater! And so does everyone that sees it on me. ✌ peace n love to all

  35. Adriene! I am so happy you are part of my every day 🙂 So blessed that you offer an at home practice that truly resonates on many levels. I just finished writing the March FRESH yoga videos and times in my fitness journal/calendar and am SUPER EXCITED and feeling extremely optimistic! Find What Feels Good has impacted my life in so many ways...I am so happy to now be a member of the community. The "RISE" series will be my first as a YWA member 🙂

    Cheers!
    XoXo.
    Namaste

  36. This was just wonderful. Spoke straight to my heart. Thank you Adriene. Your practices make a huge difference in my life. Have a great day everyone!

  37. Thank you Adriene! Your approach to teaching is so generous and your compassion is genuine - it shines through. You are doing so much good for so many people.

  38. Thank you Adriene, yoga is really helping me. I really let things go with the True:Release the other day!

  39. Thank you! And I love the random things you say “smell your inner thighs “ I laughed out loud and it felt so good just what I needed x

  40. You never cease to amaze me! I am so grateful for you and your videos, thank-you from the bottom of my heart! Namaste ❤️

  41. Just what i needed this morning, i didn't get the job i wanted and this has helped me feel good about myself again. Thanks xx

  42. Brother-in-law: So what are you doing, yoga or meditation?
    Me: Yoga. I'm scared of meditation.
    Him: You're scared?
    Me: Yeah... it's like, my brain won't get quiet, and I know that's the point, but then I start to think, what if I'm doing it wrong? What's the point if I'm doing it all wrong?
    I start the video... and end up doing a mini-meditation learning to breathe and let the anxiety go.
    How very perfect. Thank you.

  43. Seriously!!!!! After four days of dealing with issues, unanswered month(s) long prayers, friends with more problems then I can count. God tells me to settle down and relax, my husband says go see "Adriene" and there it is.... a "Self Doubt" practice. Okay, I may need to do it 4 times thru.
    Prayers needed for patience and joy.....
    thanks Adriene for your patience and joy, just what I needed tonight.
    God Bless

  44. Adriene, thank you very much for what you do! I come to my yoga mat and you for support in my lowest points of life. And I always get it! I am so grateful to you.
    Love from Egypt

  45. Hi Adriene! It is OK to modified videos like this one during first weeks of pregnancy? Yoga for pregnancy is about improving the experience or its because you can not move same as before? I would like to understand the logic of the difference. And I really hope that, if we pregnancy goes well, when I will have the baby you will have already done a postpartum series! 🙂
    Can I do the root Chakra series modifying it during this first weeks? It gives a lot of peace!!! 🙂
    Namasté.

  46. Adriene!
    Just as I wake and wonder what my day will be like and feel a soreness creeping in around my right shoulder and a sense of doubt coming to mind, I find this video attachment in my e-mail. Wow - could not have been more ´right on!´ for my fame of mind. Grateful to your teachings and grateful for my perseverance to look at each question, each mindful moment poised behind the doubtful ego thoughts to keep on keeping on. Thank you for your thoughtfulness and encouragement, for your energetic and vibrant weirdness and humour, and your continual giving to this, our greater community of yoga practitioners. To all of us. To being in the here and now and finding what feels good even when we doubt. Namaste. ~ Zhem

  47. Thank you! This was just what I needed this morning. It's been a stressful week full of lots of questioning and this practice brought just the grounding and lightness that I needed to walk with confidence through the uncertainty.

  48. I have been doing your yoga classes for over 12 months since my beautiful daughter-in-law recommended you. I have never commented before but wanted you to know you are a positive part of my life. THANK YOU Adriene.

  49. Thank you for this. I have slacked off a bit in past couple weeks and have had some self doubt passed few days, but ready to commit to March's Calendar and get balanced. I am ready for the Freshness come 03/01/18!!

  50. Adriene, I can’t thank you enough for this. For some reason right near the end I became emotional out of the blue. I’m learning and loving what your practice has been and continues to do for me. I found you a year ago and my life has become a more peaceful positive and healthier place.

  51. So glad I stumbled across this on my email today! First video I've done with you (even though I signed up for emails a few weeks ago). I get way too many emails and have every intention of looking at the good ones, but just can't find the time. Happy I did this one though!

  52. Adriene, you've been changing my life for over a year. Today I NEEDED this practice. For me personally, the beginning of this year has been fraught with terrible tragedy and devastating heartbreak. You made me cry but you made me LAUGH OUT LOUD through the tears when you said, "just do it" in your playful and funny way. You are a gem. A gift. I am so grateful for your practice and you.

  53. Thank you Adriene, this really helped. This is my first time watching one of your videos after being recommended by my twin sister. I have a lot going on with work and my personal life so needed some time out to love me again.

  54. Am on a solo adventure on the other side of the world, and this helped affirm my confidence and will to continue to explore. Many thanks and love!

  55. Thanks again, Adriene for yet another wonderful practice for me to return to time and time again for just the right fuel my mind and body needs. Your personality, professionalism and humility is so inviting and comforting..........kudos to you and all that you do!!!!!

    Kindly,
    Lauren

  56. Hilarious, you crack me up. When you said "the smell of your inner thighs" I laughed and said out loud, "I love you Adrienne, you're so cute". Also been loving the participation of Sir Benji. Thank you!!!!

  57. I do not believe the words "thank you" are enough to explain the impact your yoga videos have had on my life. I stopped smoking marijuana about 2 weeks ago and ever since then I have been experiencing night-terrors and waking up extremely anxious with my heart racing. Today I practiced ujjayi breathing, using your video as a guide then came across this one. My breath went from scary and feeling uncontrolled to calm, happy, and in complete control. It is easy to forget that you are in full control of oneself. I appreciate you, all your hard work, and all of what you've taught me in such a charismatic way.

  58. Wow! I was kind of skeptical whether this would work or not, but when I arrived at the mat i felt a lot of doubt about some decisions in my life and when I was done I felt that I don't have to apologize for everything I do and just trust myself. Thank you

  59. Just started your program and am loving it! My college girlfriend told me about your program and you and it is very well done! It’s like having a new friend. Thank you so much!

  60. I don't know how can I say Thank You Adriene!!!!
    A really Huge big big big Thanks... your amazing and the experience that share with us, the breathe that share with us is so much valuable to me. thanks Adriene... again and again

  61. Thank you for your positive energy and words. I start my day with you and then go inspire little minds to grow and learn. You inspire me to be kind to them and myself. I am so grateful to have found you! I spread the word about you every chance I get. So much so that my 22 year old daughter tells me we can not talk about it when she sees me at times. Hahaha. 🙂
    Have a wonderful day!
