Today, I invite you to take stress energy and root it back down in your foundation.
Trust the foundation and know that each time we come to the mat we are adding to and working with that foundation.
Foundation is important because it allows you to feel where you are coming from and where you are going without having to worry about either one.
Ground, be present, and recharge your batteries.
Having a sense of your foundation takes you making time for yourself. Time to dial in and check stress energy at the door.
Melt it away!
This 26 minute Yoga With Adriene break is designed to help you shift your gears and re-direct energy to serve! Recharge your batteries and use this grounding practice to align or re-align with what feels good.
You have the power!
Let me know how it goes down below!
This was just what I needed today - so much stress for the past two weeks, and just the name of your session "Stress melt" nailed exactly what I needed. Thank you so much from freezing cold Sweden with tons of snow! 🙂
Thank you Adrienne for all your energy and sharing you are such a great teacher

Hi Adriene,
You videos are beautiful. Thank you for sharing them with them and your light with the world. May I kindly request that you credit the great author Maya Angelou. It is your practice to give credit where credit is due maybe it was just a simple mistake. This is a great way to start women’s month and I love this poem by Maya Angelou.
Thanks! I feel much softer and calm again. Greetings from Varsenare, Belgium.

Loved this! Thank you so much, Adriene. When are you coming to the UK?!!!!
Hello Adriene!
Thank you for sharing with me the amazing you!
Always a great time on the mat with Adriene ; )
Now I am ready for whatever the day dishes out for moi

Adriene, I've been following your daily practice since 1st January and I wanted to tell you how much I'm enjoying your videos and my daily yoga sessions.
I have ME and am housebound at least 5 days a week. I have problems with concentration, mobility, balance, chronic pain, and in the 10 years I've been ill I have gained 6 stone (84 lbs) in weight.
Before I was ill I worked in university administration and when I was younger I was a gymnast training for 24hours a week.
I have dabbled with yoga before I got ill with ME, taking the odd class at my gym for fun alongside my regular workouts. But I have never enjoyed it or felt so much better after a session as I have with your videos.
The pain and inflammation in my spine is much more bearable, my balance is getting better, and my exhaustion hasn't really been affected too much (the positives outweigh the negatives!!).
I started with your TRUE practice in January as a monthly challenge, but I soon realised that I was dreading the month ending. I was overjoyed to discover that you're continuing to offer free monthly calendars of prescribed practice 🙂 And although I had to take a week off in February because of a throat and chest infection, I'm sure that I recovered quicker because of your practices.
So, I just wanted to thank you for all that you do for people like me, who cannot afford classes, but are benefitting daily from your efforts.
Namaste,
Gemma
You always seem to know exactly what I need! I'm going through a rough time right now and this anti stress was fabulous! Wish I lived where I could go to your classes!
I woke up feeling so disjointed and spaced out. This was absolutely perfect for helping me get grounded in myself and prepared for a productive Sunday. Thank you!
Thank you for sharing! It has been life changing
Thank you this was exactly what I needed today. Truth be told I probably need it every day.
I felt very peaceful and also very strong after this one. Thanks for shining your light
Thanks for your kindness, Adriane!
Hi Adriene, always a pleasure to share this time with you. Feel so much better now.
Perfect start to a nearly spring day.
Thank you!
Thanks so much! Always a pleasure to spend some time with you.
Thank you, Adriene - this was exactly the right connection and focus for my evening - namaste. Have a beautiful day!
DELICIOUS practice!!! I Choose to RISE everyday this week to practice in the mornings 7 days in a row
Ahh Adrienne my friend you always make me feel good about myself thanks so much. Namaste to you and Benji xb
Thank you Adriene it has been so long since I practiced with you... yesterday I mentioned you during my coaching session and it turns out my life coach practises with you as well!!!
What a perfect timing for this practice (thank you Universe and Adriene) - exactly what I need at the moment...
Thank you my lovely, you are amazing
The phoenix bit really spoke to me today, and when I sat up from it I found a feather on my leg! Loved it. Thank you. Namaste!
I felt more aligned and flowing after this. Thank you Adriene
This is exactly what I needed today. So inspiring. Namaste Adriene!
My stress level has been over the top. Thanks so much for helping me address it. I choose to enjoy life and find what feels good. Namaste.
Thank you so much for these videos! ❤
Thanks for this! It’s going to be my go-to for stress relief!
So powerful and so great before going to bed on a Sunday night. (Just added a little rabbit pose before coming back to sitting, - after the phoenix rising.) Awesome ! Namaste!
Adriene, I’ve been following the practice with you only since Jan this year but wanted to thank you and everyone else who makes this possible for the energy love and support.
So nice!! I did this video right before bed and it felt amazing! My body and mind really needed that, and I can tell I'll finally have a good night's sleep now. Thank you Adriene
Great! Fantastic! I choose to be ready to receive. Thank you Adriene Namaste
Dear Adriene,
I love your spirit, your expertise - and your videos, I practise everyday and pick
something suitable.
Sometimes I would wish for less talking during the sessions, especially this one.
I hope you don't mind me saing this,
love and embrace
What a refreshing nourishing practice! Perfect to do in a lunch hour to break up a days work. Thank you Adriene. Namaste!
Hello Adriene and thank you so much for this practice... and all the others since the beginning of this transformative yoga year! Yoga has been such an anchor habit in my life and has transformed how I see life and my projects, and thank you so much for that.
I have an important question for Sarah Bowman: I live in Europe (more particularly in Paris, France) and I have been downloading your calendars religiously in order to keep up with my daily practice. I am using it as a regular calendar as well to keep tabs on my creative projects, since yoga is about being open and creative, right? I just have one slight problem: my calendar has the week starting on monday, not on sundays. Theredore, I am getting very confused by the shape of the calendar as it is. Of course, I get it, but sometimes i am just looking at the calendar at a glance and getting a whiff of panic when I think I missed a day! Would it be possible to have a calendar that starts on monday, please please please with a cherry on top? It would be so great! Thank you so much in advance and keep up the Good Work!
Adriene. I have been doing yoga with you off and on for at least 2 years - maybe 3 - since my boss/friend (lucky me!) told me about your January challenge a few years ago. Last Otober or so, I decided to get to the mat every day and have only missed a few days since then. I did TRUE this year and just loved surrendering myself to you and whatever yoga practice you were dishing up that day. They are always delicious! I am so thankful for your library of free videos. I return to them over and over again. I have tried other on-line videos just to compare. I find that yours are the most clear and spoken in a voice that is soothing. Your generous, loving, quirky personality shines through; I feel as though I know you! My niece lives in Austin and next time I visit I'd really like to attend a live class with you if that is possible. Thank you into infinity for your good work. And a thank you to the many others who I also provide the support to make these videos possible. I will not have access to a computer for the next several months, but when I return, I will become a member. Thank you and thank you again and again. Namaste.
Thank you Adriene for yet another gorgeous practice. Sending love to the YWA community from France.
Beautiful and infinitely helpful. As always. Namasté Adriene.
Please, please, please, do not think that I am being negative in my post. Could you please credit Maya Angelou as the poet who created your inspirational verses at the beginning of your email? I'm a huge fan of hers (and an English teacher) so please forgive my presumptiousness. Thank you.
P.S.: Sharing your practice and guidance with me has changed my life. I appreciate the love that you give to the world.
Loving it Bowing to the divine in you, me and everyone out there
Love and Bless
@ 7:16 "particularly useful if you've been having a rough day thus far"
Timing is everything - thank you
Hi, question about the poses where you have one foot forward with knee over and the other foot top on the mat: this hurts the knee that's on the mat, it's kinda like kneecap gets shifted in a way that's not right. If I keep my back toes curled it's ok. Would you recommend a modification for that pose? Thanks!
Love it love it love it. Amazing. Thank you so much.
Have a blessed day all 🙂
Adriene,
I've been a member for a long time....and try to practice regularly.....my heels STILL will not touch the mat in down dog!! Ugh, but I will keep at it. I just want to thank you for helping me and so many other like the practice, your attitude keeps us going. Thanks so much!!
I noticed your Grand Teton sweatshirt today. I moved from there to VT about 18 months ago. I am still in mourning but spend a lot of time focusing on the positives of being back in the east. Today's practice really helped me release some of the deep sadness I have over the loss of the life I left back in the Tetons. I've been holding that stress in my right hip and today's practice left me sobbing as I entered the last child's pose. Thank you for helping me find the space to release some of that stress and take notice of that I do not allow myself to feel on a daily basis. I will probably repeat this practice in an effort to heal.
Namaste.
This was what I needed! Will def be revisiting !
Thank you Adrienne, this is what the doctor ordered.
This was perfect, thank you
Namaste
Thank you again Adriene! Your help and support really is helping me so much!!You are a Goddess!
Thank you ! this changed my mood completely. I am now ready to go to work ;).
Dearest Adrienne, so needed and enjoyed this practice today - I love to see you daily and to hear your kind words of encouragement! Lots of Love from Elisabeth - in Austria xxx
What a gift this practice is! Thank you!!!
Not feeling strong or proud (working on it) but i do feel supported - grateful for all the good you do Adriene.
I choose . . .
Have a productive and happy Friday.
Namaste-

Writing from the uk. In lockdown due to covid. I’ve done your videos for years Adriene, but lately I’ve felt like I’ve needed them more than ever. My yoga time after I’ve put the babies to bed is my time. My exercise, and my relaxation.
I’ve really been feeling the weight of our life style restrictions due to covid lately, and been feeling numb to life.
You’ve kept me focused and helped me hit the reset button at the end of each day. Your videos help more then you’ll ever know. Keep doing what you’re doing Adriene! XxX
Just what my mind and body needed. I hope to carry this feeling throughout my day.
Adrienne thank you so much for your help and support
I enjoy your yoga so much you are fun with it do this every week thank you
Every Monday morning I do this really helps me
Live in UK missed a week not good Tues morning and I have done this feels good
Adrienne thank you so much if I don't do this one especially I get stressed I am 64 yrs old
