Thank you so much for sharing your time, your energy, and your practice with me.

Heroes.

I hope you feel your value and even just a sprinkle of the love you are worthy of.

I hope you feel proud, present, and curious.

Let’s keep going!

Each month we will share a free YWA calendar and you are invited to join me and the global community in regular practice.

Regular practice is so much more beneficial than hitting a sweaty power yoga class every once in a while, in my opinion. Though I do like a good sweat too!

Strive and maintain balance so that you can feel your best, be happy, and find what feels good.

Show up regularly. Move with ease. Rock your truth all year long.

If you fall off the horse, I swear that the process of actually getting back on and catching a wave is even better than any goal of perfection.

The monthly calendar and this community will be there to support you on your ride.

You can find the calendars each month via the calendar tab on my website. I also am sure to send them out via my Sunday letter at the end of each month.

This month: LOVE YO’ SELF and share your experience with #YWALOVE

Download your FEB Calendar and get all the details!

Many of you have left a comment or wrote in to say thank you (no, thank you!) and to ask about ways in which you could support the channel.

First, I am honored. Thank you. Because mi casa, es su casa. This channel and this practice is not mine, it is OURS.

Second, outside of making sure you are subscribed to the YouTube channel, I’d love to invite you to check out our blossoming membership and here is why:

- Your small contribution for the subscription supports keeping the free yoga going for those who cannot afford yoga classes.

- The entire monthly membership costs less than the price of one yoga class.

- The community is awesome.

- The content is creative, diverse, and ad free.

- Members also get first dibs on a lot of things, such as merchandise, live events, and our annual Find What Feels Good retreat. Plus coupon codes for merchandise and the annual FWFG retreat too.

- If you are curious but don’t want to commit you can do the free 7- day trial to check it out with the option to cancel your membership at any time.

Thank you so much for taking the time to read this and more so for sharing your story with me.

What a way to begin a year.

But don’t forget, you can begin anytime.

The hardest part is showing up.

And for that, I have your back.

Thank you for having mine.

Yours Truly,
Adriene

The sun shines down, and its image reflects in a thousand different pots filled with water. The reflections are many, but they are each reflecting the same sun. Similarly, when we come to know who we truly are, we will see ourselves in all people.

Amma

Cheers.

To you.

To me.

To us.

Day 30.

It’s about listening.

Pure.

Sincere.
Authentic.
Bonefide.

It’s about responding.

Honest.

Undeniable.
Trustworthy.
Natural.

A genuine practice with a truthful process.

That is what it’s about for me.

And that is why I made this…

My offering to you.

To me.

To us.

To the world.

The time is now.

Never give up on finding your true light for the betterment of all.

This isn't the end of anything. Trust me, it is a very potent beginning.

It’s time to live with full vigor and authenticity. No hiding! The world is asking that of us and we are craving to align with it ourselves. We have an opportunity.

Take it.

Run with it.

We will practice on the mat today.

I take the mic off… and together we jam on what it’s all about.

Listening and responding. 



Shining your light for the betterment of all. 



Connection.

Find What Feels Good.

I am honored to know you, feel you, guide you, laugh with you, pray with you, play with you.

The true you.

Practice.

BE YOURSELF.

I love ya. See you on the mat.

Jai Namaste,
Adriene

I understand the large hearts of heroes,
The courage of present times and all times.
Walt Whitman

Well… I’ll be.

Day 29.

Part of what really amazes me about this journey and this practice is the generous amount of bravery and guts it takes to show up and really look inside and see who is there.

This is yoga.

As I am sure you have experienced by now, the practice doesn’t always align with your mood, your energy state, or your schedule.

However, you are always presented with this amazing opportunity to take advantage and really look in and see what is going on today - or to simply sit out on the sidelines and “just get through it.”

One way brings you closer and more in touch with your self.

This challenging practice asks you drop the poses (but trust me there are still poses, don’t fret) to lean into this idea of just getting to know yourself.

Your true self.

Just by simply showing up you have an opportunity to get closer to just that.

Today’s practice is balanced and loving.

Be brave, look inside.

But wait!

Also, remember and consider the fact that everything is constantly changing.

You can feel something in one moment and then the next moment feel completely different.

We are walking contradictions!

Blanket yourself in love and appreciation for being brave enough to show up here and listen.

This is a practice to bookmark and return to.

Getting teary…

See you tomorrow for Day 30.

Love,
Adriene

PS: “What about after Day 30?” Let’s keep going! On Feb 1st we are kicking off a month of self love & care practices. Join me for a free month of yoga and let’s keep this train going with a TRUE video every Tuesday. (All.Year.Long.) Here is your free calendar!

Before fixing what you are looking at, check what you are looking through.

Our series continues as we sync up for day 28, a practice that challenges you to put your TRUE vocabulary and discoveries into action.

Marry the strength with the stability for this fearless 19 minute flow.

Today's session invites you to put the pieces together, dig into your tool bag and explore the unknown.

Tap into your deep soulful breath today as this swift practice is designed to zip you out of your comfort zone.

Go forth, be fierce, observe!

Meet and greet it with your inner smile.

Direct your focus on what you want to manifest, not what you fear.

Manifest what serves!

Get it,

Adriene

Yul Brenner: Now look in the mirror, and tell me what you see!
Junior Bevil: I see Junior.
Yul Brenner: Junior, Junior. You see Junior? Well, you want to know what I see? I see pride! I see power! I see a bad-ass mother who don't take no crap off of nobody!
Junior: You really see all that?
Yul: Yeah man. But it's not about what I see, it's about what you see. Now look in this mirror and tell me again what you see.
Junior: I see..
Yul: Pride!...Power.
Junior: Power. I see..
Yul: A bad-ass mother who-

When the mind and the heart are stretched together in expanding self awareness, I assure you, there is instantaneous self transcendence and, therefore, limitless freedom. Shri Swami Nirmalananda

You might think that the countdown to the end has begun.

But really, I see it as the countdown to the beginning.

The beginning of a life long romance with your regular at home yoga practice.

Yes.

I invite you to sign up for my weekly love letter where I will be sending you a free monthly yoga calendar to follow along with throughout the year along with other goodies.

Today’s practice invites you to breathe deep and find freedom within the framework.

Are we chained to the constraints of being told what to do and how to feel inside it?

The invitation is for you to focus on sensation over shape today so that you can feel a sense of authenticity and liberation.

Less constriction.

More expansion.

We are rolling deep!

Love,
Adriene

Enlightenment for a wave is the moment the wave realizes that it is water.

At that moment, all fear of death disappears. - Thich Nhat Hanh

Today’s practice invites you to lean in and see what you are really made of.

Take your kindness and your awareness practice with you and strap in…

Lean in.

A yoga and pranayama practice to help you spiral in to the present moment and find a little stillness.

This practice reminds us of the power of stillness in both body and mind. It reminds us how important and empowering it can be to take the time for regular self inquiry and reflection.

Sadhana.

Today, when you can find stillness, allow the breath to move you.

Lean in and learn.

Learn to love and recall…

You are made of love.

Take comfort!

See you tomorrow,

Adriene

PS: Wondering what we shall do after Day 30? I got you! We will have a free February yoga calendar for us all to follow along with. We will stick to our practice and connect - which will bring more energy and joy into your days! Let's keep going! x

What is sadhana? It’s a committed prayer. It is something which you want to do, have to do, and which is being done by you. … Sadhana is self-enrichment. It is not something which is done to please somebody or to gain something. Sadhana is a personal process in which you bring out your best.

~Yogi Bhajan

The post TRUE - Day 26 - Be Still appeared first on Yoga With Adriene.

If you can't see what you are looking for. See what is there.

Be aware. Think of one thing that you want to cultivate more awareness around today.

Maybe it’s a deeper understanding of yourself.

Or maybe it’s simply choosing to have more awareness of your body and breath in three legged downward dog.

Whatever you are drawn to today - do it with utmost awareness.

Pull up the shades, open the window and explore!

Awareness leads the way as you continue to lovingly build strength and stability.

I am going to guide us through the awareness of the spine with today’s important and delicious practice.

Remember to breathe and feel your way through…

Wake up, wake up.

Let your posture represent you.

The true you.

This practice will assist. Bring on the magic!

Catch A Wave,
Adriene

The post TRUE - Day 25 - Be Aware appeared first on Yoga With Adriene.

Being kind to yourself creates a ripple effect…

What is one way you choose to be kind to yourself?

Day 24 is a restoring session all about mindfulness and bringing the body to a state in which you feel supported and chill.

Invite your mind to quiet and your nervous system to be calm.

This quick practice drops most of the poses to hone in on the idea that by merely showing up you are demonstrating a beautiful grand act of kindness.

A restorative day to help you find peace and feel good!

It may be hard to believe but practicing being kind to yourself can be a huge source of empowerment.

Kindness in your thoughts, your actions, the movement, the way you move, your gestures.

Trust that this time is valuable. Sometimes more valuable that a rigorous practice.

For just under 14 minutes today, allow the mind and body to be at ease.

Be kind.

Yours,
Adriene

Being your true self is the most effect formula for success there is. Danielle Laporte

Okay, okay, I know I have said this before but Day 23 is really what it’s all about.

My other bread and butter. My favorite topic, mountain and meat.

Balance.

My curation of TRUE will offer a variety of benefits based on what the individual is seeking to uncover.

But the one thing I believe we all will benefit and uncover together is this feeling of your natural state of balance.

Ooh lawd, it’s so much more than standing on one leg.

It’s about understanding and getting to know your whole body.

Your energetic body.

This is it.

Consider, affirm, then whisper quietly to yourself, “Balance is my natural state.”

This practice dives in full on so that you can really, truly begin to notice what balance feels like at this stage of your life.

Today.

You have everything you need.

Find the time and the courage!

Then arrive on the mat and let it happen.

Sincerely,
Adriene

PS: Tomorrow’s practice is just under 14 min. Yes, you read that right. So keep going, remember - you are doing this for your most important relationship!

PPS: The hashtag #YWATRUE is a brimming boil pot of global love and inspiration! Peep it if that is your thing. And if not, you might give this one a chance. I feel so honored and special to get a glimpse into peoples homes, humor, smiles and experiences. To the journey!

Day 22 offers strength, stability, and a little dance of release.

There are a few new moves today that might feel strange at first, but through regular practice I assure you they will SERVE.

Trust me.

This special Adriene blend of Kundalini and Hatha yoga with pranayama invites you to hone in on the powerful practice of being present.

Beyond the undeniable benefits that today’s pranayama and yoga will offer, you have an opportunity today to let go of that which is no longer serving you.

It is through this practice we begin to feel more liberated.

This 20 min practice is sure to serve if you show up fully.

So, don’t be shy today.

Trust me, trust yourself, trust the the process thus far!

Give it a good go, will you?

I’ll see you there!

Yours,
Adriene
