Yoga with Adriene

We kick off our first practice of our 30 Days of Yoga today! A session designed to set you up for success and help you set the tone for your experiences here as we grow through practice and understanding of our relationship to our Self. Set YOUR intention for the journey! Set your sails to - come as you are - for there is no other expectation. Learn how to use your breath to enhance and support your experience on the mat. You are ready, get set, let’s flow!

It’s Day 2 and with an important theme, a call to action, an invitation to drop the doing of yoga and reside in the role of the observer. When we practice in this way on the mat - we create an opportunity to move into a new presence. Get ready to stretch, to twist, and to listen to your breath, as you move your spine and connect with your body.

Hop on the mat for your Day 3 session that asks you to focus on how you breathe, how you think about yourself and others, how you move through the practice and how you move through the world. How you move matters. Let’s go.

Movement can be such good medicine! Our vocabulary together expands as we take today to notice all the ways in which the breath can move you and guide your way. Your Day 4 session welcomes a Vinyasa Flow practice! Way to show up for yourself today. Let’s get moving!

Day 5, oh baby! Our Day 5 practice is such a beauty. This practice reminds us how the way we carry our body can resemble or represent our innermost feelings. This session is also a guided invitation to make it your own, be intentional about the way you show up to move and breathe. Can you be gentle? Can you trust the wisdom of your body? The physical branch of yoga offers us the chance to better understand and get to know ourselves. Continue to show up for practice and focus on how you do so. It’s all happening. ✨ Represent you, on the mat. Represent!

CORE WORK for the win! Do you trust me? Join me for an 18 minute, core centering session designed to help you connect to the full spectrum of your core muscles holistically, as well focus the mind for optimal mental health. Check in with your center. Day six is my favorite. Who said core work had to be a hard hot mess? I love this approach. It’s efficient and impactful and leaves your nervous system feeling cared for. This practice is active, intricate and invites discipline of your breath. Don’t miss it.

Welcome to Day 7. One full week of tapping into the energetic body through regular movement, breath and yoga asana. This is a practice of synchronizing breath with the movement and movement with the breath in order to discover your flow. You are one week in and doing great. Remember there are no rules and you can drop any limiting expectations. The most important thing is that you show up. Even if it’s only to sync up with your breath and check in with your energy for the day. You got this.

Precious day 8. A day to try a little tenderness with a soft and easy practice of rest. For this session you are welcome to bring a blanket or two and a pillow to the mat. (No worries if not.) Trust that this type of session is most valuable.

Day 9 uses the marriage of mantra and movement to encourage powerful release and a boost in relationship with yourself and what serves!

The journey continues! With our day 10 practice we continue to develop a vocabulary in which we are able to use the breath to cultivate a more beautiful conversation between the mind and body. Today is all about moving any stagnant energy to allow the opportunity to align with something bigger than yourself and drop into FLOW.

This 16 minute session is a balm for the soul. Get ready to tap into conscious breath, stretch, and practice self massage. Yoga doesn’t only restore the physical body but the emotional and spiritual body as well. Take your practice to the depth that it wants to go. I am honored to practice alongside you.

Welcome steadiness and ease. In this session we bring our focus back to the stability of the center line while embracing yogic principles as stated in the Yoga Sutras and yogic philosophy. Here we are reminded to tap into the inner world and continue to let go of the drive to perfect the exterior of fancy yoga poses. Be prepared to flow in this session and find steadiness and ease from within.

With yesterday's focus on stability in flow, today we continue with a heightened focus on ease. Day 13 is all about marrying action with presence and ease. A beautiful practice for life, if you ask me.

Welcome Day 14! Welcome you - and all that comes with you today! This is a new day to notice your energy, your emotions, and what thoughts are forming. We continue to explore yogic philosophy and use breath to initiate shifts.

Today’s BALANCE session invites you to dig deep into the subtle layers of your practice. This journey is about meeting yourself, your sensations and observations, and through regular practice - finding your flow. In this session we begin with a right/left hemisphere balance and move on to continue to use the asana to learn about ourselves and how we experience our bodies.

Day 16 is sweet and a startlingly awesome opportunity to BE KIND. Reinstate loving kindness to yourself with this session. The hardest part is showing up. Keep showing up to the mat and together we will source the rest. Trust me, the second half of this journey is THE BEST! You got this.

Way to go! You are my hero. This is the phase of the journey where we really get into the energetic highway that is your spine! Building off the previous practice, we will continue to explore vocabulary for letting go of what no longer serves and finding our current, optimal flow!

Slip into sukhasana for divine stillness and meditation! Let’s take today to invite a sense of peace and slow pause for both the physical body and our mental state. Today is all about renewal - a great opportunity to renew your commitment to showing up. I LOVE YOU! You are doing great! Enjoy!

Gratitude, take the wheel! This session is an important one that you won’t want to miss. Ride the wave of the breath as we practice coming back to gratitude. If you laugh, smile, fall or fart - it’s all part of the journey and discovery.

Day 20. This is huge. You made it to Day 20! And perfectly timed, we take this session to continue the journey inward. This session asks a lot of good questions and continues to cultivate and add new vocabulary to the physical practice. This is time well spent with yourself. (Thank you for letting me be a part of it!) Let’s go!

On day 21 we recognize a natural curiosity that grows about ourselves and others. Pay attention to sensations in your physical body and heart space - both - and the practice will communicate a lot back to you. This session is an invitation to observe and investigate without judgment. (Oh - and it's certainly okay to have fun too.)

This practice is one of self inquiry. Building on the previous sessions, we will tune in, move, breathe and find support through practice. I am here to cheerlead you. Honor your truth.

In this practice we find that inner recruit that supports the whole system. This session activates the root chakra and guides with an opportunity to learn how to activate certain areas of the physical body to shift energetic flow, build strength in the body and cultivate balance in the brain.

One of my favorite themes! In this session we continue to unlock creativity and celebrate intuitive movement through listening and responding. The ebb and flow of your practice emerges when you show up to be present with what is. Don’t decide where it ends…

Intuitive movement is key for being able to identify what your optimal flow feels like. Today we tend to the energy centers of the body through breath and physical practice.

With a free spirited entry, this heart-led session challenges you to practice being open. Listen and respond to what the body is sharing today as we bring awareness to the heart center. Get ready for heart-led warriors, cobras, and bow pose! Perhaps some alligator breathing too? Four more practices await after this! Stick with your commitment, you can do it!! The hardest part is showing up to begin. Let’s do it!

This Day 27 video is a requirement of this journey, so don’t think - just do it. Today's session highlights some of the powerful tools of a holistic approach to practice. And most importantly, it is an opportunity to say something kind to yourself.

As we near the end of the journey we enter into a beautiful practice of deep listening and trust. One that guides you toward cultivating a relationship with your inner voice with more opportunities to improvise and play and connect with something bigger than yourself. I am honored to be on this journey with you!

Building on the whole journey and especially the past 5 practices, today we use the vocabulary to find sensations through moments of movement that feel individual to you. We have worked with focus, rigor, softness, kindness and balance to develop a practice for finding FLOW. This session is all about the power of TRUST. Trust your intuition and keep an open mind. Learn rabbit pose (bunny posture) or maybe fly in crow! Heads up! Tomorrow’s practice is going to be a little different than the rest. Trust.

You made it. I am so proud of you, in awe of you. Thank you for sharing your valuable time and energy with me and this incredible worldwide community. Today’s session is our final yoga practice of the journey. This video will be a little different from the rest, as it asks you to create your own practice in culmination of everything we have learned and practiced together. You have everything you need! You have your vocabulary, your action, your awareness and your alignment. You know how to tap into intuitive movement and trust. Connect to your inner voice and stay open, you may just feel a connection to something bigger as well. You are your best guide. I am, however, always here to help, to bolster, to ask questions with you and support your growth. This session is a celebration. Remember, in every end - is a new beginning.

You did it. We did it. Felicidades! This is my life’s passion and I see a world that is better for having people who are in true touch with themselves, brain, body and energy. Heart and soul. THANK YOU for taking this journey with me. Thank you for sharing your valuable time and energy with me, Benji and with the Yoga With Adriene community across the globe. My hope is that we keep learning and practicing how to show up well.
