Right on! Thank you, I like this. if possible publish a lot more like this
Did this at home as a mindfulness warmup to my main practice. Such an accessible flow, thank you for sharing <3
So thankful for this! My neck and back have never felt so relieved and my whole mood has changed. Really appreciate how much effort you put into making these and the whole vibe you bring with it so thank you xx
Hi. I’m recovering from C19 and back at work. I’m using this practice once a day and finding it helps to relax my mind and body.
Thank you
So glad I found your channel. The Office Break Yoga is just what I needed now that I’m spending my entire day in Zoom meeting after Zoom meeting!
This was awesome! I needed this. It was the PERFECT 5 minute break as I’m studying for a licensing exam:) THANK YOU!
Just did this with the girls in my office (with 6 feet between us of course) and it was a nice way to shake off some tension.
I did this for study break and feel so relieved from the tension��
This is awesome! I plan to bookmark this to come back to several times during my work week!
I carried my 2-year-old daughter on my back for nearly 3 hours this past weekend at a protest/prayer march. This was PERFECT for helping to work out some of the tension in my neck, shoulders and lower back. Thank you!
Adrienne, I can not thank you enough! Not only was this exactly what I needed, but it was accessible to bodies of all levels! As someone who’s taking training in January, I’ve come to realize that yoga is intimidating to people of size and that’s what my mission will be as an instructor. Thank you for this beautiful, mid day, boosting, accessible practice. Namaste. ������������✨✨����
I’d like to share a hack available online for the popular meditation tips. Visit Google and type: “MindYoga4U”. This is going to definitely help you.
Thank you Adriene, you are the kindest yoga teacher I’ve ever seen ��
The look on my coworker’s face when she saw the 280 pound me doing this (poorly) lol. You just earned a subscriber
Thanks a lot for this! Goya teachers are modern prophets indeed. I just did it I feel awesome!
This was exactly what I needed for my 5 minute pomodoro break. Thank you x
beginning to love your yoga, encouraging me to calm down and relax! x
This is perfect for me! Working from home can be just as demanding (if not more in some cases) as working in the office! I am grateful for Adriene and her jazzy office break yoga. Today was my first time, but it will not be my last!
Thank you! I just did the Office Yoga Stretches at my desk and I feel much better and focused. Hope you have a great day! Namaste!
Great session. So useful after so much time working at an uncomfortable desk.
I’ve been working from home & forgetting to step away as normally would in the office. I have scheduled to do this video x2 a day and already feeling the benefit! Thank you:-)
what a refresh! Taking home-office brake and found you in Slovakia middle of Europe as well. Thank you Adriene, Awesome
We’re in the middle of a heat wave right now and I couldn’t bring myself to do today’s “courage” video, but I wanted to *something*. I found this video, and it was just right! Thank you, Adriene! You’ve really got something for all occasions!
I got a very loud ringing in my ears after the final forward fold. Ive experienced it a few times before, but never as loudly as today. Does this happen to anyone else? You know why?
My pets ruined another mat so I’m very grateful to have this mat free yoga to follow
Adriene I just recently had a motorcycle accident and my knees are all bruised and scraped this yoga practice is the only one I can do without hurting my body, thanks you so much! ✨
with the thumbnail and title, I literally thought this said “Stretch Breasts at Your Desk”
I loved that this was easy to do and didn’t require being on the office floor. lol
thanks, i added this to a little script on my work computer that reminds me to take a break and then opens this video every hour.
I normally don’t subscribe to any channels or leave comments, but want to leave a not of appreciation here for the wonderful practices you share. I did this one by my desk at home, and despite the tight space, it was really refreshing and rewarding to get a nice stretch in. Thank you, Adrienne! Sending well wishes during these tumultuous times.
This was great. I’ve been looking for something I could do at the office during my lunch break but my uniform is quite restrictive. This one worked perfectly, thank you from New Zealand!
I work third shift and spend most of my time at a desk. Every hour, I use one of your short sequences and it has helped so much with relieving the pain and stiffness I get when I wind up working 40-56 hour weeks. Thank you for posting these!! <3
great video! for people working in an office, to do this daily! would be amazing for them:) <3
Cannot cope with your haste in this short sequence… only did it to 1.20 to find something that gives me the opportunity so come down. Now I have only two min left:(
insider: do yoga,
me: yeah,I am sleeping (best meditation ever)
I feel so much better, it is unbelievable! I was sitting a lot at work. I did take a walk afterwards and talked to a friend, but that conversation stressed me out (probably cause she was stressed). I came home and wrote to another friend, which helped. I did 10 minutes of meditation and cried a bit. But Adiene, this practice just made me feel so calm and loose. It was just what I needed! Thank you! I might dance a little now. Hehe.

I have actually kept at this for 6 days in a row! Even on my days off! Whenever I feel like slacking, I just say to myself “can you do just the deep breathing part at the beginning?” Once I do that, I’m sucked in for the rest! Some day, maybe, I’ll get up to 15 minutes!
As a Teacher, I am not used to sitting at a desk all day, but in these trying times we all must do our part in society. I look forward to doing this session in the middle of each day. Thank you so much!
I’m losing weight but still obese, and I needed something I could do while standing but that didn’t require floorwork. This was lovely, thank you!
Wow Adriene you are amazing!
You teached me first time ever how to reach the floor with stretched legs, even if with my fingers.
I am over 30 and not so strechable. In my younger age it was my daily routin, but in the past few years it”s gone.
Thank you so much! Namaste!
Wow.. ran across this.. Love it. I’ve done it 2 days in a row now, and I think I am going to start doing this daily! I do it on 1.25x and its the perfect speed and about 10 minutes. I currently have a sports injury that prevents me from doing anything impactful on my hip (including a lot of yoga) and this is a perfect quick 10 minute home-office addition.
Definitely needed this. Was starting to feel stressed out at my desk and Im in a full transit uniform. I needed that to re-center myself and get loose.
Thanks for making my mind and body clear and positive before I go to work!!!
Just did this at work in a hospital lab, never done yoga before in scrubs with a surgical mask on haha exactly the break and energy boost I needed to get me through the rest of this 12 hour night shift. Thanks for all your wonderful videos and lovely words!!!!!!
Hi Adriene! I would like to request some more standing flows! Thank you for these.
Few deadlines in the horizon while WFH in Sydney. Perfect short exercise in the afternoon to increase my awareness and productivity. Thank you Adriene, you got a new subscriber.
Thank you Adriene, working from home during COVID my body is turning to stone without the daily diversity of being at work. This is just what I need to keep moving and prevent home workstation injury.
love love love this! thank you Adriene! By the way i love your pants! Mind to share where you got them?
