I keep on getting told its just anxiety and have trouble sleeping at night. I need to know if this possession is really helpful for me. I mean I dont wanna keep feeling bad as in sick of my heart or watever the deal is. But its its Anxiety that I Just have can this reallt help my anxiety. By the way I have never done yoga but I really wanna get into it for the problems I’ve been experiencing.
Thank you Kris, I’m new to your channel. I’ll definitely try this as this might help my back & as I’m older now this could ease back pains. God bless & keep up the good work!
Great video among some of practices wall videos
Thank you for the guideline
Useful and feel so blessed energize
I started yoga again. Was looking for the right person. As I’m really achy and in a lot of pain, the floor workouts are perfect for me. I love how I feel after 3 weeks of lockdown. Another 3 to go and I’ll be able to start moving forward again. Felt inspired to extend my fasting window too. ❤️
I noticed my toes get tingly after a while so I just naturally switched positions lol. I will say this after a long day of working on my feet this really does feel fantastic.
This was an awesome video what a great stretch in my lower back and the rest of my hips and legs thank you so much
Muy buenos los ejercicios,pero el cuadro de los,de los subtitulos no permiten ver las posisiones
Its EID HERE FROM THE KINGDOM OF BAHRAIN i watch this for the first time May 2020 I Really Appreciate you great share your Voice is cool lovely it makes ne cry out loud love you ������
Could you help me with my Yoga please Kris? I would love to have a few online yoga classes with you. I can pay you for your troubles? Looking forward in hearing from you. MItchell
I am feeling sensation in knees…while posing this…is it okay?
….use accompanying stretches with stretch out strap for spa or masseuse level relaxation. Place hands on various numbers of imaginary clockface on the ground. Slide heels up and down alternating direction toes are pointed.
Been doing this at least 3x a week since beginning of quarantine. I love doing this, I feel the difference not only with my body but also relaxes my mind
Hi, nice video, I did it and felt very relaxed.. Is this only for relaxation or for reducing inner thighs and hips too..plz help me.. Waiting for your reply
Started doing yoga at 14( a number of years ago). Stopped after a very traumatic event in my life, with extreme long term stress. The point is now I am chronically I’ll from the unrelenting stress, and getting worse. Can I still do this pose and have positive results? My whole life has changed dramatically for the worse and I need help. I have always tried to go as natural as possible to relieve or recover. Thank you for sharing this video.
I like this pose, it relaxes me, looking great Kris, I’m sharing your video:)
Thanks for the easy trick to get this difficult pose right.. earlier I used to struggle to do this����
Woow, how so many variations can be made. Not easy when we are just beginning. Thanks, pretty lady!!
How long are you meant to hold this? I feel like i could be here for half an hour or longer even though i don’t practice yoga all the time anymore and am recovering from whiplash.
That is really good to know how to start to get your legs up in the air because I am very stiff in my legs because I’ve had a stroke, i’m trying to get flexible again try ��
When I do this pose, I have to wear many layers, have one blanket draped from my feet over my legs and another blanket over my torso. But, when I’m warm I find I’m able to hold the pose a long time.
Would there be any disadvantage to the thing to raise the neck/head being one of those microwavable rice or bean warming pillows? I have a lavendar scented one I like.
I have been looking for some time for a yoga practice to follow online. With your video I’ve found the perfect instruction which honours the meaning of yoga. Thank you so much. Immensely grateful.
Very useful! Going to do this and use it for cool down with my exercise clients! Also, your presentation with the many options was quite good!
Even the explanation is relaxing. It was so clear and full of details that it gave me confidence to try it, and the awareness to know if something was wrong. Thank you.
Superb, with leg up excercise, how many variations to almost excercise all the joints & organs of the body.
Being home in quarantine this was the best thing I could ever do for my body thank you so much
These videos are informative and entertaining. Thank you for taking the time to make and post.
it’s a nice yogo practice specially for the people who cnt do lots of physical exercise..
I like all your videos can u please show me how to do properly forward folding thank you
I was suffering with back pain. when i started this for ten minutes daily i have no back pain.this pose is very useful for back pain.entire the day i am free.thank you mam.
Thank you so much for these, will try and do everyday and will start to watch all your wonderful videos.
Once a month? How about once a day (or more) for ten minutes. i’m still trying to figure out what to do during those ten minutes, but something will come along…perhaps Facebook. Maybe some sit-ups or crunches.
Thank for the video Kris! Lots of great variations and options. I’m looking forward to trying this!
Quick question: my shoulders feel tensed all the time. Can I still try to do the plow pose and shoulder stand?
I love this video btw.
Thanks for this…..I’ve used it a few times with beginners to lead them into shoulderstand…..It’s great preparation.
I used to do this kind of thing all the time as a child and didn’t have a clue that it was yoga, LOL! I noticed you have very high arches in your feet. Do you get plantar fasciitis? Also, may I ask why the tops of your feet are bruised? I don’t mean to be rude, but I have high arches as well and am occasionally in a lot of pain from dancing.
Hi Nini, I wasn’t able to reply to your comment directly, so I hope you find your way back here and see that I’ve replied. Yes, you absolutely can use a warming pillow under the neck, and lavender is a dream for a calming effect. What a great idea with the blankets…I tend to pile them on too as I get cold quickly. And there’s certainly nothing relaxing about being cold. Hope you enjoyed the video. Thanks for your comment.:) kris
Thanks a lot! I knew this position from Mezières method but I had no idea how to get so closed to the wall! Now I know! My back is grateful to you!!
Thanks for your reply. I also use tennis balls and frozen water bottles. I was kinda thinking those might be tattoos, but it was just too far away to be sure and I bruise the tops of my feet in my boots on a regular basis. Have a great day!:^)
This is Wonderful! I have practiced this since youth. Not so much, as an adult. It Absolutely Works and assist with Sleeping. Forgot exactly how much! Thank you, Kris.
For some reason, after performing this pose I get real tired, why I prefer to do this before bedtime
When I try and do plow pose feel really sharp pain in lower back
Hi! I’m 72. Thanks for re-acquainting me with asanas I thought were over for me. Shoulder stand! Danivad!
good Training, yes. BUT do not talk while doing the asana bad for you, bad for the viewers. film can be manipulated later, so easy.

I have been searching for this kind of yoga at wall since one year. Thank you so much for this video. This means a lot to me. An yr ago my yoga guru taught me and this helped me get relief from vericose veins. I wil be glad if you can help me with some more yoga asanas that can help me get rid of vericose veins and make my thights thin without hurting my tail bone.. Waiting for your response
Wonderful sequence. So happy to come across you. Great instruction. I like that I can do a quick routine or a longer one. Thank you.
Thank you so much for this, I’m thoroughly enjoying performing this exercise sequence every day.
P.S: The way you say “legs” is cute. “Laygs” ��
I do some exercises in the foreground and then do this exercise.Enjoy the peace of the music and the sound of the music. thanks

Doing this instead of class that was canceled. Very interesting. No wasted effort up and down. Pigeon very useful with my “bionic” (replaced) hip. Thank you.

I know the best online workouts guides. Go to Unflexal and get the best workouts instructions.
Is this pose is helpful for weight lose…..are the pregnanat women can do it?????
Ma’am, should I practice this only for 5 ms in the beginning, as my body is fat, I am 51 years age, and have a very stiff and rigid body, as it is been more than a year, since I last exercised? And I can’t do it with my hips flush against the wall, as I am so stiff and rigid, I can only do it with some space between the wall and buttocks. Also I have 3 mild bulging discs in my lower spinal cord, is it safe for me to do this pose? And I have noticed also, that if I do this pose for more than 5 minutes, my legs start aching, why is that? Will it lessen with time and practice? This is still my 2nd day of practice.
I’m practicing this wall streches from month.. it’s giving awsome results.. my belly fat reducing. Thank you so much..
So beautifully u explain.. thanks a lot..i love the way of your performance,,
Thank you. I really love this work up the wall. The variety of poses and very gentle instruction.
Thank u very much dear,it’s really very helpful.God allways bless you wonderful soul����������
