Day 29 - Believe | BREATH - A 30 Day Yoga Journey

Believe in the power of your conscious breath. Believe you are on your path. The invitation is both simple and profound today. It invites us to recognize how time with conscious breath, contemplation, and mindful movement can lead us toward genuinely believing in oneself. Trusting oneself. Trusting the quality of that relationship as you continue to change, transform, and grow.

We continue to ride the wave of the breath and remember, the mat is a mirror.
Trust your vocabulary. Trust the integrity that you have been bringing into this practice.

Tomorrow is our final day of the 30 Day Journey. The invitation will look a little different, but the goal is to begin by finding what feels familiar… and then be open to where your breath leads you.

If you can, set aside an hour for Day 30. If that just made you panic, use the tool of your breath to stay open. We bookend this journey with two long sessions.

I am giving you a gentle heads up that tomorrow will be different! I will be asking you to trust, to believe, and to take the tools we have learned together and marry them with your experience to begin a practice that is truly yours.

Have faith.

Have faith in yourself.

I promise you, I have your back.

What, if anything, is resonating with you as we get on the mat for Day 29?
Do you feel more united with your conscious breath?
Do you believe that this is a useful tool for your own growth?
Take time to really notice how you feel about showing up for yourself in this way.

I need to share my today's experience because it really changed the way I went through the practice. My eyesight is really bad and every practice I would do with my glasses on, which sometimes could get very frustrating (glasses dangling on my nose, falling down). I never considered taking them off because I always wanted to see the video clearly, be able to recreate every move as much as I could. Yesterday for the first time I decided to take my glasses off for the entire practice and see what happens. It was a bit weird but also so much easier! Today I entered the practice without my glasses consciously and decided to fully focus on the voice. I left my perfectionism behind and for the first time during the challenge I listened to my body without any distractions. And like the practice told me to believe, I finally did so. Thank you, Adriene, for your guidance. I'm fully ready for tomorrow :)

I want to express my gratitude towards Adriene, Benji and the whole community! This channel is such a wholesome place and reading the stories of others in the comments and knwoing that there are other people practising at the same time as me has been so motivating and inspiring! Tons of love from Bulgaria <3 !

[christiwagner]

I was concerned starting this practice because of the pain in my hip that has been bothering me for a while. I chose the mantra 'I will find my own way' and it really stuck with me during the practice. I did not do the one leg standing pose but I feel so proud for participating in my own way! I hope you can find your own way in this journey and if you do, better feel proud about it! Namaste x

I have loved being on this 30 day journey with everyone, it’s been a precious highlight during a January lockdown. Very happy to have done it with you all!! See you tomorrow xx

[fgqgezo]

Only one more day left on this journey, it’s almost bittersweet because despite how proud I am of each and every single one of you for accomplishing this and showing up for yourselves (even if you struggled or skipped a day or two, it still counts!) I’m going to dearly miss the amount of positivity I see daily in the comment section 🤍🤍
Let’s make the last days the best and let’s give it our all! Sending so much love and positivity to everyone doing this, you all have done amazing!

Adriene, I signed up because I started noticing about 2 years ago that I couldn't fill up my lungs in that comfortable way you can when you yawn. BREATH spoke to me. I have not missed a day -- and yes, my breath is so much better. The extra crazy benefits are the strength and kindnesses you offer. (I usually run and do HIIT stuff, but this month, I gave myself permission to suspend those activities to make sure I showed up here.) SO grateful to you. I'll be continuing with this practice.

Adriene: Smile.. tomorrow is our last day.
Me: Smiling with tears in my eyes..

[dariaandrzejewska]

I love Adriene's humble teaching style. Before I started doing yoga, I thought it was all about getting the poses right, but now I realise I was wrong. Yoga is an individual journey and Adriene reassures us this every time we fall and lose balance or when we can't hold a pose for long enough. Thanks to her mindful guidance we grow stronger and more confident. Looking forward to day 30!! <3

It’s hard to believe tomorrow is the last practice in this beautiful live“Breath” journey. I will miss reading all of your wonderful, encouraging comments daily.
Wishing you all continued Yoga success! Lots of love🙏❤️

[andywade]

This was day 99 for me of yoga with Adriene after being convinced about Yoga reading the book The Surrender Experiment. Thank you for this wonderful teaching Adriene. I'm hooked and I'll be doing it until I die. I was recommended by my 75 yr old Mum who has been doing it herself and you've been helping so many during these strange times. Best wishes to you and all on this journey! Namaste ;)

[rachelrossos]

What a journey! I'm sad that it is nearly over. This 30-day journey in particular was so healing, and of course the community here is amazing. Looking forward to continuing my daily practice with 1-3K people around the world with the monthly calendars the rest of the year. <3

I don't think I'm ready to say goodbye.... This has seen us all through a pretty insane month, I'm so glad we had Breath, Benji, this community and, you Adriene!

[Azoazo]

I cannot believe I have been doing this for myself every single day, and I've done it for years. With little children, Covid, health issues, last year has been tough. Some days I have tears while I'm in a session. I was so lucky to be in a big crowded room with Adriene doing yoga in London back in the day. So many people in one room in unity, no masks, no fear. At the end of that session, I was lying down and I again had tears in my eyes. I so wish those days to come back. It's like a far away dream...

[Loracanne]

1, 500 of us practicing at the same time. What a trip. Can you believe there is only 1 day left in Breathe?!

[SingingAppu]

I see the word believe, immediate flashback to our lovely Adriene singing, " I believe I can fly"! Awwww how wonderful! I believe in us Beautiful souls! ❤️❤️❤️ Happy Day 29 Angels! ❤️💫🌈😘😄🦋💝💞

[Debster]

This has been the series that I didn’t know I needed at the start. I’ve been in a dark place—sad and empty—for quite a while. But the consistency of showing up for myself has been so rewarding. I feel like I’ve been able to carve bits of my soul back every day. I plan on going back and doing all your other 30-day journeys after this. I’m not ready to lose this daily time to truly check in with myself. Thank you, Adriene, and everyone else else practicing with us! ❤️
