Center - Day 8 - Melt

A day to soften, find stillness, and keep up with the practice of using your breath to tell your brain that it is okay to shift gears. Bring some props if you like! A pillow, a blanket or two.

This practice reminds you that these moments on the mat, however they may look and feel each day, are for you to be with YOU.

This session has a lot of gems in it,
so get cozy,
*notice how you feel today*
and let them wash over you.

Let me know how it goes for you in the comments!

Benji Finding What Feels Good 24/7, a true role model 💚

[Sonification]

12:39 the moment Benji did the little puppy crawl across the mat 😅 And can we all take a moment to appreciate Adrienne's response? "I'm gonna roll with it." That was one of the most instructive moments of the day... sometimes when a puppy lies in the way of your best laid plans, it means life is calling you to adjust your plans around the cuteness.

A classic day, day eight, don't hate, meditate, feel great! It was amazing, as always! I'm immensely grateful to you, Adriene, for all you do for us all! Thank you wholeheartedly, Adriene & Benji! 🙏🏼💜

Benji was in the perfect mood for this one😌
Hey friends of February 2024, I hope you are having the best day possible for you today❤ See you tomorrow!

[elieska]

Hey all! We made it through week one, let's be proud of eachother and ourself 🧡

I love that Benji gets to do yoga with you. You can tell he is so happy and relaxed to be there. He is an example to us all of being fully in the present.

Relax your body dear one,
Melt your heart,
Ease your mind,
Observe
Take stock.

Receive love,
Stretch your soul,
Find comfort.

Who would have thought lying down and being still is harder than a full core yoga practice. It's hard to be still sometimes. Thank you, Adriene.

[danikalitzenberger]

Don’t know if anyone else can relate but this was actually the hardest class for me. I have a hard time being still and just focusing on my breath for long periods of time. This practice was a good reminder for me to slow down and enjoy the process

[CarissaBelair]

Wow, I just have to say a follow up to this practice from yesterday! I have a history of grinding my teeth when I sleep, I also bite my tongue a lot (some of it has to do with partial seizures) but i've been really getting worse the last few weeks. Last night after this Melt practice it was the first time I went to bed and woke up with my jaw relaxed and didn't bite my tongue. A strange feedback, lol but happy and wanted to share! <3

As a yoga teacher trying to build the courage to go online thank you for being so relaxed and authentic when you teach. It is so refreshing and inviting after all the highly choreographed and overly produced videos many teachers feel forced to produce. I look firward to allowing my fur babies into my videos - they make everyone feel more relaxed!

Center is my first yoga Journey. Today I found myself at 11pm realizing my day was going to end without doing this session. I was going to let it pass and start again tomorrow, but then I remembered how great this daily yoga practice has been to me. I was mentally prepared to endure a 30 min hard work yoga and I was gifted instead with this calming and soothing practice. I am so happy and grateful for this. Gracias to you all: Adrienne, Benji, team and community ❤

[colourfulintuition]

I just want to say thank you to Benji for not moving, seeing him today full screen filled my heart with love ❤❤❤

[sweettea]

I saw an interview with Adriene where they asked her if she had any idea of the positive impact she has on so many people's lives and she said (humbly and kindly) that she does. Today I'm feeling very glad about that. The refuge Adriane helps us create in our own homes is a truly amazing thing (':

This is my favourite year of 30 Days so far.

[alimarie]

Today was hard. Anxiety and stress were winning despite my constant attempts to beat them back.

As soon as I heard your voice I started sobbing without abandon. I named my fears, I took my breaths, I tried to love myself through movement. I needed that release more than words can express.

This practice means so much to me. And I know I’m not the only one who feels this way.

Thank you for who you are and what you do. You were a gift and a light for me today. I appreciate you deeply 🖤

[Babbalucia]

When Benji woke suddenly up and then got back down I bursted in to a laugh that made my dogs go crazy. I spent the last 10 minutes of the practice laughing and cuddling with them. Loved it!

[brookenelson]

This is my first 30-day journey with Adriene, and I am loving it. I am a few days behind, but I just wanted to hop ahead to the current comments to let you know how happy I am to be on this journey with you all! Best of luck. Stick with it!

[alisonhope]

Omg.
Benji was the most adorable.
He is always the cutest, but this time he was totally in it with us all..
Benji having the most relaxed practice.
Thank you for this practice it was beautiful

Thank you Adriene, Benji, and everyone else for the encouragement, I had to start with Day 7 today, because I unfortunately missed yesterday, so I'm so glad Day 8 wasn't to strenuous, I have never done this stuff before, I'm 73, so my movement isn't quite as graceful as Adriene's, but you can see the resemblance, and it's working... peace & love to you all ❤
