Where do I want to go? 26 00:01:20,834 --> 00:01:22,458 "Where do I want to put my energy? 27 00:01:22,458 --> 00:01:26,542 "And yeah, how can I become a healthier person or, 28 00:01:26,542 --> 00:01:30,417 "you know, spiral back to a healthier version of myself?" 29 00:01:30,417 --> 00:01:33,333 And I think that 30 days of yoga 30 00:01:33,333 --> 00:01:35,500 while it is a challenge is a 31 00:01:35,500 --> 00:01:39,708 journey that anyone and everyone can benefit from. 32 00:01:39,708 --> 00:01:42,625 This started when Chris and I thought it might be fun to 33 00:01:42,625 --> 00:01:46,875 create an original program called 29 Day Yoga Reboot 34 00:01:46,875 --> 00:01:49,792 for this, you know, January time 35 00:01:49,792 --> 00:01:51,542 and we were really new to this thing. 36 00:01:51,542 --> 00:01:54,041 We were kind of learning as we went along. 37 00:01:54,041 --> 00:01:55,625 Which we still are. 38 00:01:55,625 --> 00:02:00,917 But we made this 29 day reboot program totally like in my 39 00:02:00,917 --> 00:02:03,708 friend's back garage studio. 40 00:02:03,708 --> 00:02:04,708 We lit it ourselves. 41 00:02:04,708 --> 00:02:07,792 We shot it ourselves and it was four videos that you were 42 00:02:07,792 --> 00:02:10,000 supposed to do each week. 43 00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:12,708 And Chris and I worked tirelessly throughout the whole 44 00:02:12,708 --> 00:02:14,959 holiday on this program just kind of, 45 00:02:14,959 --> 00:02:16,792 again, figuring it out as we went along. 46 00:02:16,792 --> 00:02:19,959 It was so much work and we were laughing because we could've 47 00:02:19,959 --> 00:02:22,041 never imagined, you know, how much work it would be. 48 00:02:22,041 --> 00:02:23,000 (chuckles) 49 00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:25,250 And by the time we were ready to release it, 50 00:02:25,250 --> 00:02:29,000 I have to be honest, I had no idea if anyone would want to do 51 00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:30,583 it or if they'd want 52 00:02:31,375 --> 00:02:34,166 to engage in a community with people they 53 00:02:34,166 --> 00:02:37,208 didn't know and to my great surprise we had this incredible 54 00:02:37,208 --> 00:02:40,000 group come together to do the original Reboot. 55 00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:44,291 And to this day we have a group called FWFG Founding Members. 56 00:02:44,291 --> 00:02:45,417 Shoutout if you're in that group. 57 00:02:45,417 --> 00:02:46,750 You know who you are. 58 00:02:46,750 --> 00:02:49,750 And I'm so grateful to this group because they reflected 59 00:02:49,750 --> 00:02:53,458 loud and clear back to me how powerful coming together through 60 00:02:53,458 --> 00:02:56,291 a digital platform could in fact be. 61 00:02:56,875 --> 00:02:59,792 So after Reboot went so well we decided, 62 00:02:59,792 --> 00:03:02,834 okay, we need to do 30 days of yoga. 63 00:03:02,834 --> 00:03:04,375 We need to make it all for free 64 00:03:04,375 --> 00:03:06,542 and we need to put it all on YouTube. 65 00:03:06,542 --> 00:03:10,125 So that's what we did and to my great excitement and surprise 66 00:03:10,125 --> 00:03:12,708 thousands of people from all over the globe gathered together 67 00:03:12,708 --> 00:03:16,333 and did this original 30 day yoga journey, 68 00:03:16,333 --> 00:03:17,917 30 Days of Yoga. 69 00:03:17,917 --> 00:03:20,417 And from that point on we've been doing them each year. 70 00:03:20,417 --> 00:03:22,708 Releasing a program made with love, 71 00:03:22,708 --> 00:03:24,792 30 days, from the heart. 72 00:03:24,792 --> 00:03:27,542 After 30 Days of Yoga we did Yoga Camp 73 00:03:27,542 --> 00:03:29,959 in which I played with a 74 00:03:29,959 --> 00:03:32,375 lot of affirmations that my mom taught me growing up 75 00:03:32,375 --> 00:03:36,166 which I still to this day find incredibly useful and you'll see 76 00:03:36,166 --> 00:03:39,208 some of them come to the mat in Dedicate. 77 00:03:39,208 --> 00:03:44,500 Then we did Revolution which was a 31 day yoga journey and last 78 00:03:44,500 --> 00:03:47,208 year, or this year actually if you're watching this, 79 00:03:47,208 --> 00:03:50,333 in 2018, we did True. 80 00:03:50,333 --> 00:03:55,250 All of these are really built with the at-home yogi in mind. 81 00:03:55,250 --> 00:03:58,542 The idea is that we're focusing on ourselves while still 82 00:03:58,542 --> 00:04:02,041 connecting to the group at large which is what our yoga community 83 00:04:02,041 --> 00:04:04,458 is all about in my opinion. 84 00:04:04,458 --> 00:04:07,291 And this one is special. 85 00:04:07,291 --> 00:04:11,917
