1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:04,829
(bright upbeat piano music)

2
00:00:18,104 --> 00:00:20,070
- Hey everyone!
Welcome to Breath,

3
00:00:20,070 --> 00:00:22,150
your 30 day yoga journey.

4
00:00:22,150 --> 00:00:26,949
I'm Adriene and this is Benji 
and you found us, welcome!

5
00:00:26,949 --> 00:00:28,870
This is the place.

6
00:00:28,870 --> 00:00:32,050
You made it and
this is the right time.

7
00:00:32,050 --> 00:00:33,510
This is a welcome video, okay?

8
00:00:33,510 --> 00:00:36,710
There's no yoga today so just
in case you didn't know that,

9
00:00:36,710 --> 00:00:41,749
I wanted to make sure that you
knew that today is about getting

10
00:00:41,749 --> 00:00:46,670
connected and committing to
the next 30 days together.

11
00:00:46,670 --> 00:00:49,429
So we'll begin tomorrow,
Day 1, with the yoga.

12
00:00:49,429 --> 00:00:52,469
In the meantime, wherever
you're watching this video,

13
00:00:52,469 --> 00:00:54,649
maybe on your couch,
in your bed,

14
00:00:54,649 --> 00:00:59,229
on the ground, in a pillow
fort, just sit up nice and tall.

15
00:01:00,012 --> 00:01:03,397
And we're gonna take a
couple of breaths together.

16
00:01:04,280 --> 00:01:08,180
So wherever you are,
find length in your spine.

17
00:01:09,081 --> 00:01:10,300
And nice and easy,

18
00:01:10,300 --> 00:01:13,820
I'll invite us to take
a deep breath in together.

19
00:01:13,820 --> 00:01:15,247
Here we go.

20
00:01:16,641 --> 00:01:18,301
And out together.

21
00:01:19,988 --> 00:01:23,134
And big inhale in together.

22
00:01:24,149 --> 00:01:28,027
Nothin' fancy,
and exhale out together.

23
00:01:28,027 --> 00:01:31,301
And one more time,
big inhale in.

24
00:01:31,301 --> 00:01:32,248
And this time as you exhale,

25
00:01:32,248 --> 00:01:35,046
relax your shoulders 
down, down, down.

26
00:01:36,120 --> 00:01:39,079
And we're here.

27
00:01:39,079 --> 00:01:42,279
So first thing's first, I want
to give you a couple little

28
00:01:42,279 --> 00:01:44,639
things that you might
want to bring to class.

29
00:01:44,639 --> 00:01:49,159
Ultimately, the Yoga With
Adriene at-home yoga invitation

30
00:01:49,159 --> 00:01:51,319
and the experience
doesn't require much,

31
00:01:51,319 --> 00:01:54,360
just your willingness
to be present and,

32
00:01:54,360 --> 00:01:56,530
of course, you have to show up.

33
00:01:56,530 --> 00:01:58,729
The hardest part is showing up.

34
00:01:58,729 --> 00:02:02,960
I promise you the most difficult
and challenging thing of this

35
00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:06,810
next 30 day journey is
going to be getting on that mat.

36
00:02:06,810 --> 00:02:10,549
So as long as you get
yourself there, we will connect.

37
00:02:10,549 --> 00:02:12,990
Benji will be our cheerleader.

38
00:02:12,990 --> 00:02:16,209
And together we'll
uncover the rest.

39
00:02:16,209 --> 00:02:18,959
So if you have a
yoga mat, bring it.

40
00:02:18,959 --> 00:02:19,959
It'll be useful.

41
00:02:19,959 --> 00:02:22,290
If you don't have a
yoga mat, that's okay.

42
00:02:22,290 --> 00:02:25,459
Again, it's very much in the 
Yoga With Adriene wheelhouse

43
00:02:25,459 --> 00:02:27,349
to work with what you have.

44
00:02:27,349 --> 00:02:29,649
So you can work with
just a hard surface.

45
00:02:29,649 --> 00:02:31,690
If it's carpet that's okay.

46
00:02:31,690 --> 00:02:34,099
But if you have a mat,
bring it to class.

47
00:02:34,099 --> 00:02:38,290
If you have a blanket
or a towel, bring it.

48
00:02:38,290 --> 00:02:39,900
If you have a
yoga block, bring it.

49
00:02:39,900 --> 00:02:41,160
We just want to have something,

50
00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:43,069
a little something that
you can sit up on.

51
00:02:43,069 --> 00:02:46,340
This can be a big bath
towel or a big beach towel.

52
00:02:46,340 --> 00:02:50,330
You don't have to
have a yoga blanket.

53
00:02:50,330 --> 00:02:53,489
This can be anything that you
may have at home that will help

54
00:02:53,489 --> 00:02:57,939
cushion your seat and help lift
your hips a bit so that you can

55
00:02:57,939 --> 00:03:00,620
come into this position that
we will be coming to a lot

56
00:03:00,620 --> 00:03:03,432
as we focus on our breath.

57
00:03:04,635 --> 00:03:06,780
Wear comfortable clothing.

58
00:03:06,780 --> 00:03:08,959
Not so difficult, right?

59
00:03:08,959 --> 00:03:12,430
Wear things that
you can move easy in.

60
00:03:12,430 --> 00:03:16,569
And finally, forget what you
think you know about yoga.

61
00:03:16,569 --> 00:03:19,220
When you come tomorrow,
come with an open mind.

62
00:03:19,220 --> 00:03:24,400
Come with an open heart and just
be willing to see what happens.

63
00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:27,909
I will do my best to guide
you and offer modifications.

64
00:03:27,909 --> 00:03:30,560
We're casting a wide net.
Please know that you're never

65
00:03:30,560 --> 00:03:32,200
gonna be alone with this practice.

66
00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:35,200
There's always going to
be someone practicing live,

67
00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:38,342
in real-time, with you,
which is pretty special.

68
00:03:38,342 --> 00:03:41,630
And ultimately, if you just
come to the mat to breathe,

69
00:03:41,630 --> 00:03:46,175
I think you're going to feel
the benefits of this practice.

70
00:03:47,579 --> 00:03:50,310
So if you don't mind, let's
bring the palms together and

71
00:03:50,310 --> 00:03:53,180
close with one
final deep breath in.

72
00:03:53,180 --> 00:03:55,360
Here we go.
In through the nose.

73
00:03:57,430 --> 00:03:59,659
And out through the nose.

74
00:04:00,629 --> 00:04:04,619
You can close your eyes here
and just set a little intention

75
00:04:04,619 --> 00:04:08,290
for the next 30 days.

76
00:04:08,290 --> 00:04:10,331
Why are you here?

77
00:04:11,969 --> 00:04:16,512
What do you think
pulled you here?

78
00:04:17,770 --> 00:04:19,803
And if you don't know yet,
that's awesome, too.

79
00:04:19,803 --> 00:04:21,277
That's exciting.

80
00:04:26,308 --> 00:04:28,240
Alright, take a second,
sit up nice and tall.

81
00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:30,611
Palms together in prayer.

82
00:04:32,917 --> 00:04:35,942
And we'll inhale in again.

83
00:04:35,942 --> 00:04:40,447
And exhale to bow the head to
the heart and we will whisper,

84
00:04:41,710 --> 00:04:43,010
Namaste.

85
00:04:44,806 --> 00:04:46,440
Thanks everyone. I can't wait.

86
00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:49,381
I will see you tomorrow.

87
00:04:49,381 --> 00:04:53,984
(bright upbeat piano music)
