Day 2 - Stretch & Soothe - 30 Days of Yoga

Join Adriene on Day 2 of The 30 Days of Yoga journey! Stretch your body and soothe your soul. Relieve stress and ease into your 30-day experience with an open mind, kindness, and curiosity.

Use this Day 2 practice to stretch tight muscles and soothe the nervous system - even an achey heart. This first week we take time to connect to the big picture and a full-body experience. Practice staying present as we deepen the practice and learn vocabulary to play with on our mat. Practices change from day to day - and get shorter towards the end. Stick with it! Take this time for yourself. Have courage to take the time for yourself! Get empowered, find what feels good, listen to your body and don't forget to have some fun!

Connect and support others down below! Cultivate positivity. Remember each day is different! The journey is the reward! See you tomorrow!

Yoga makes me feel like I'm taking care of myself instead of working out. For the first time, it's all about how I feel, and not how I look. So I wanna say thank you!

[RumAndRiot]

I don't know how this makes me both sweat and feel like I've just had a really great nap

[annafilatova]

It is 2023 and Adrienne is still my favorite yoga teacher and I am rewatching these old videos and love them!!
best yoga practice ever

I’m a vet with ptsd. Ppl have been trying to get me to do this for years, but I was always told yoga was for granola eating hippies. Very bad advice indeed. This has done so much for me and my mental state that I just wanted to thank you for doing this and helping me find some peace.

I think my biggest challenge is constantly straining my head towards my laptop while I'm in odd poses to figure out if im doing it right lol

[alexandravalerious]

adriene: enjoy every minute of it, smile
me: *cursing to get through the last few seconds as my muscles shake*

i do enjoy it once i'm done with my practice for the day though

[victoriaz]

the title: "stretch and soothe"
me: *struggles and sweats*

[irrelevant-lvr]

"let the motion flow through your body with the breath"
my body on an exhale: *a symphony of pops and cracks at every joint*

[iremsirin]

"just one more breath"
me: **breathes heavily 5 times**

Thank you so much for posting these videos and making it possible for people like me to get the motivation to live a better life...

holding a plank came at the perfect time because my cat walked right under me and i got to give her a little kiss on the forehead

[cpr]

It is crazy how all of us are on day two even if we have done this in the past present or future. This journey really transcends time, so thank you all for being here on my journey and I'm happy to be here with you on yours, to our day 2 and our beautiful journey.

In the middle of this, I said: I am doing this for my crush to notice that I am getting in shape!

Then I stopped and said instead: No, I am doing this for myself! Because I love that I am getting my butt on the mat and that I am working for improving myself mentally and physically!

[samanthaadams]

Hi adrienne
Im 13 and have autism and severe anxiety and panic attacks o find this is a great way to relax and chill out

[lucydiscover]

Hello friends! If you get to about 20 minutes in and start to feel like giving up due to hand/wrist pain, please don't. The last part of the video isn't as intensive in these areas. You can do it, keep going!

[sulibreaks]

the second day was tough damn. dreading, but somehow still excited for tomorrow.

[silantiris]

I didn't expect the second day would be so hard! I had to stop in the middle of the practice because my heart was pounding and i felt dizzy. Doing this practice before sleep was bad idea😅 I will try to complete it tomorrow

[paramorefan]

On day two and I have discovered that surprisingly the most difficult part of yoga for me is, breathing. Is this just me or do other people feel that the focusing on inhaling and exhaling needs major practice. But I'm loving the tranquility these videos and the practice brings me. :)

[brkli]

Just got done day 2! My wrists/hands are very, VERY weak and I almost gave up 20 minutes into the video, but the last 10 minutes were mostly focused on the legs so I pulled through. It was tougher than the first day but instead of feeling tired I feel like I slept for 9 hours straight lol

[SailorMinimoon]

Thank you for the comments! I was soooo close to quitting because I was struggling and thought I wasn’t doing it right or the video was too advanced. The comments said they were struggling and keep going. Reading the comments gave me motivation to keep going. Thank you so much everyone. Even though finishing this video was a small accomplishment; I am so happy I finished it and I had fun too!
