hello my friends this is your official

welcome to the 30 days of yoga with

Adriene I'm Adriene it's a pleasure to

meet you or pleasure to see you again

ywa community members and I I couldn't

be more excited about this thirty day of

yoga project free 30 days of yoga one

video per day I just wanted to give you

a warm official warm welcome and also

help guide you to a couple things that

might help you along the way

first things first if you're totally new

to yoga relax you're in the right place

this experience is built for all levels

all body types all backgrounds and the

idea is to empower you to connect to who

you really are in the comfort of your

own home for free you don't really need

anything you don't even really need a

yoga mat but some helpful things that

might might just help you along the way

is to have a yoga mat but you don't need

it a towel or a blanket but you don't

need it a pillow or bolster or block but

you can do it without so we can have all

these things we can have them ready so

that when we start our 30-day experience

we kind of already have all of our ducks

in a row you don't have to have any

fancy yoga clothes to do this just

something comfy something that you can

move indefinitely and then typically we

practice in bare feet so if you're in a

chilly environment right now you can

always start with your socks and then as

you get warm kick those puppies off okay

I want to direct the beginners to one of

my favorite yoga with Adriene videos

which is called Yoga for complete

beginners actually the truth is this

this video is awesome for anyone who's

wanting to just kind of check in with

the body and see where you're at either

after an injury or maybe you haven't

been on the yoga mat in a long while or

maybe your emotional body has gone

through a lot of trauma you just want to

kind of ease in because you know how

powerful Yoga is check out Yoga for

complete beginners it's awesome

it'd be a great thing to also practice

if you feel like one of the thirty days

of yoga videos is a little too

challenging that said we also have an

awesome foundations of yoga series where

we kind of break down the pose

and again especially for beginners but

for everyone if you want to go back to

the foundations of yoga if you have a

little extra time in your day and learn

a pose or go a little deeper with the

pose that we do in the 30 day yoga

experience I think that's going to be an

awesome tool for everyone involved also

if you're interested we have a couple

other little goodies to support you on

your 30 days of yoga journey head over

to yoga with Adriene com sign up for the

experience there and then I'll send you

a PDF calendar and some other just

thoughts and words of wisdom just

kidding just that's to support you along

the way

we do have a hashtag for the 30 day yoga

experience it's hashtag 30 days of yoga

we're trying to invite as many people

along for the ride so if if you come

across something that's not your thing

like hashtags then just don't

participate in that participate in the

things that make you feel good

if hashtags do make you feel good and

you like hopping on Instagram and

finding 30 days of yoga and seeing what

everyone else is doing because sometimes

I do and sometimes I do it in a yoga

pose by the way you can do your social

media in a yoga pose why not it's 2015

baby we can do what we want okay so this

is really important the first rule of

the 30 days of yoga is there are no

rules so I'm going to do my best to

guide you to keep you smiling breathing

deep and really paying attention to your

body but you are in charge you are the

director the choreographer and the

dancer all in this one bit

you get to decide if your yoga maybe

it's just mindful breathing one day

while the video plays or maybe you

really meet your edge and you take

advantage of some of the play times that

I offer later on in the thirty days

experience where we get to kind of

improvise and find what feels good a

little more free style on the mat I

assure you every day is different so you

don't want to miss a day every day is

totally different the lengths of the

videos are totally different the

anatomical focuses are totally different

and they're all designed to empower you

and help you create a home practice so

that you can find what feels good daily

on the rig and for free in the comfort

of your own home I just think that's so

amazing obviously we want to hear from

you connect surprise yourself open

yourself up to a new experience if you

had asked me a couple years ago if I

would ever have an online yoga anything

I probably would have giggle I probably

would have laughed at you and look at

what we have now so grateful I'm so

humbled and I'm super excited just about

the connection that we also have the

opportunity to have to make through this

30-day yoga experience as well so invite

your friends to join you if you're not

on the same timeline as me again first

rule is there are no rules these 30 days

of yoga exist for you to experience

however you like I can't wait to see

what happens

ok I'm smiling from ear-to-ear very

excited I'll see you on the mat can't

wait to hear from you find what feels

good

take good care namaste
