- Hello dear friends. Adriene here coming at you with a very special announcement. (mimics trumpets) I am on the set of our brand new 30 day yoga journey and it's called Dedicate. (uplifting music) What's that you say? What is it you ask? Dedicate is a 30 day yoga journey that everyone across the globe is invited to and it's 100% free. So this is a wonderful way that we like to kick off the new year. It really sets the tone for the year ahead and it's our tradition now in our community and I love that it's growing and growing and growing. I'm honored to guide as many people as possible on this free yoga journey and this is why. Over the years we have found that you don't have to sacrifice your sanity or your relationship to your true self in order to get fit. And the new year is, you know, of course, a wonderful time for us to kind of focus in, dial inward, and go, "How am I feeling? Where do I want to go? "Where do I want to put my energy? "And yeah, how can I become a healthier person or, "you know, spiral back to a healthier version of myself?" And I think that 30 days of yoga while it is a challenge is a journey that anyone and everyone can benefit from. This started when Chris and I thought it might be fun to create an original program called 29 Day Yoga Reboot for this, you know, January time and we were really new to this thing. We were kind of learning as we went along. Which we still are. But we made this 29 day reboot program totally like in my friend's back garage studio. We lit it ourselves. We shot it ourselves and it was four videos that you were supposed to do each week. And Chris and I worked tirelessly throughout the whole holiday on this program just kind of, again, figuring it out as we went along. It was so much work and we were laughing because we could've never imagined, you know, how much work it would be. (chuckles) And by the time we were ready to release it, I have to be honest, I had no idea if anyone would want to do it or if they'd want to engage in a community with people they didn't know and to my great surprise we had this incredible group come together to do the original Reboot. And to this day we have a group called FWFG Founding Members. Shoutout if you're in that group. You know who you are. And I'm so grateful to this group because they reflected loud and clear back to me how powerful coming together through a digital platform could in fact be. So after Reboot went so well we decided, okay, we need to do 30 days of yoga. We need to make it all for free and we need to put it all on YouTube. So that's what we did and to my great excitement and surprise thousands of people from all over the globe gathered together and did this original 30 day yoga journey, 30 Days of Yoga. And from that point on we've been doing them each year. Releasing a program made with love, 30 days, from the heart. After 30 Days of Yoga we did Yoga Camp in which I played with a lot of affirmations that my mom taught me growing up which I still to this day find incredibly useful and you'll see some of them come to the mat in Dedicate. Then we did Revolution which was a 31 day yoga journey and last year, or this year actually if you're watching this, in 2018, we did True. All of these are really built with the at-home yogi in mind. The idea is that we're focusing on ourselves while still connecting to the group at large which is what our yoga community is all about in my opinion. And this one is special. I am inviting you officially through this announcement video to join us on January 1st. January 1st is just a welcome day and then we begin the yoga on January 2nd. Okie doke, so that's it. From my heart to yours, consider this your official invitation to join me and Benji and glorious human beings and pets all around the world for Dedicate, a 30 day yoga journey starting January 2019. Be sure to visit the sign up page so you can get all the glorious details. You'll also get signed up for a daily email from your's truly as well as a free downloadable calendar which will help you track your progress. Be sure to invite your friends, invite your neighbors, invite your coworkers, your family, invite your pets and invite your foes because I truly believe with all my heart and soul that the more we do yoga the more available and open and awesome we are to contribute something meaningful to our world. Together! Thank you so much for watching. I love you wherever you are. I hope this finds you well. Take good care and I'll see you on the mat for Dedicate. Namaste. (uplifting music)
