I used to struggle here, now I actually enjoy pyramid pose!! Great explanation, thank you!!
Joining SHIFT a bit late but wow. Loved this, was really tired today and this just made me feel all melty and soft. Hit the spot perfectly. Thank you so much Adriene ❤️��
This was a “yummy” practice. Feeling relaxed. I really enjoyed it. Thanks Adriene.
This felt very relaxing, focused and felt really good for my back especially! My mind didn’t wander much for once!
You are my idol for teaching! Hope I can be like you some day.
Anyone elses foot fell asleep when bending forwards for a while in the last pose? Freaky
It’s so amazing how the two sides can be so different. If there is anyone else out there lamenting, ‘but the other side was so easy,’ you are not alone
Day 2 SHIFT! Been busy and finally have made it back to YWA. Here on July 4, 2020. This was so refreshing, visiting a single posture. Thank you Adriene! ��
Thank you, Adriene! It’s great to be able to come back to the foundations in these monthly calendars because just as you say there’s something new to discover every time. So important to circle back, particularly right now. Thank you, Love to everyone xx
Shift Day 2 ✅ thank you so much for this months line up!! So stoked �� Namaste ��✌️
Loved this! Just found this series of yours and looking forward to more. I have done the 30 day and my body is so happy! I am a writer, and I have found doing yoga with you after a writing session always balances my body and I am ready for more. Thank you!
holy smokes my knees have never EVER felt so good, DEFINITELY going to be exploring this pose more WOWOW
I can never take a long break from yoga again! These last 2 days made me realize how much I need yoga in my life. I just have to stay consistent!
In the second version I couldn’t get both legs straight and my hands on the ground. What should I be striving for (e..g. Is it better to have my front leg straight and my hand on a block vs. my front leg bent and hands on the floor)?
My back becomes found and I m unable to touch my knees, how I can prepare myself? Pls tell
Sometimes the simplest postures teach us so much about ourselves and how to be more aware. 2nd July, 2020 Thank you! see you tomorrow
Me taking notes:
Adriene breathes
WRITE THAT DOWN WRITE THAT DOWN
This is great! I hadn’t seen this foundations videos!! Gracias Adriene!
Loved getting a deep dive into Pyramid. Thank you for including it in the July calendar!
