Yoga For Women | Yoga With Adriene

Because you demanded it...Yoga for Women. This is a gentle and restorative sequence to practice before or during your cycle. Adriene shares supportive postures using items you will have around the house - such as a blanket or towel and a few pillows. (Or LOTS of pillows!) ("Those aren't pillows!!!!")

This sequence invites you to slow it down and support the body and its natural rhythm. It provides relief for PMS, cramps and lower back aches. It calms the nervous system and chills the energetic body leaving you feeling cool and clear. Practice to support the body and its wisdom - leaving frustration and fussiness behind.

Take the time for yourself! You deserve it!

It is really nice to have our period acknowledged and a practice to help honor/soothe the process. I've started scheduling off work for the first two days of mine, and it has made such a difference. Allowing myself to actually rest while menstruating is a blessing. It's important!!! Not everyone understands but I think many in this community get it. Namaste Adrienne!

During the supported child's pose, with extra fluffy pillows, I started crying because it means so much to have someone so caring help us through such an uncomfortable time. A particularly nasty cramp woke me up an hour ago. It's now 5 AM, because I took an extra 15 minutes to this practice and I feel wonderful now. Thank you so much Adriene!

[selmahaslinger]

I'm on my period.. and I'm watching this on the train to university, just to calm me down due to your soothing voice. Almost started crying because I'm so thankful that there is such a caring person out there! Thanks

I started crying during this because Adriene is so sweet... It really is that time of the month.

This video should be taught in health class in school!! Everyone should know them!

[ReBeLRecKLesSs]

I honestly think we need a whole series dedicated to the menstrual cycle!

30 minutes ago I was crying and screaming and now nothing!!
Oh my god I honestly didn't think that will work but I just want to give a try because the pain was unbelievable and I couldn't go to the hospital, from the beginning i was so much comfortable and the pain start to fade away!!
Thank you so so much!!
I think I'm gonna start doing yoga more!!💖💖

Thank you, Adriene! I suffer from Endometriosis and Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome and it makes my cramps nearly debilitating! I could barely walk this morning, but after this sequence, I feel great and I'm ready to begin cleaning my house and making today count! Thank you so much for this yummy sequence. I will definitely be repeating this sequence tonight!!

So, I have endometriosis. This morning, I was writhing in bed and sobbing and shouting because my cramps hurt so bad. I had to walk around almost completely bent over because standing up hurt too much. This video is the ONLY thing that gives me any sense of relief when I'm to that point. The cramps don't go away completely, but I'm able to walk with a straight back and sit with a manageable amount of pain. I usually have 2 to 3 days where I am completely bed bound during my period, where I can barely function, but doing this a couple times a day helps me be able to move around and focus on something that isn't the cramps. Thank you so, so, so much for this! No other yoga for periods has ever helped the way this does.

I was throwing things (soft things, granted) and muttering curse words under my breath this morning. Found this accidently and you are my new favorite human. Not only is your routine relaxing, you made me chuckle so many times in just the first 15 minutes that my mood changed dramatically. Will be coming back here every month and probably much more often. Thank you for such an enjoyable video

[aminabangash]

Love the fact that Adrienne is so casually dressed being the Queen of Yoga on YouTube.. instead of wearing flashy workout gear ! Love her down to earth manner n coming up with amazing sequences ! 👏 👏 👏

[georgenoble]

my missis was in tears this morning she was in so much pain now shes happy and pain free!! thank you so much!!

[Sunriseeme]

I'm literally doing this EVERY MONTH

[amandamclennan]

Adriene I can't thank you enough for sharing your beautiful teaching style with all of us around the world. Here I am in Perth Western Australia, with bad cramps on my birthday. I was feeling blue but now I've given myself a bit of self love, following your gentle, relaxing yoga for cramps video, I'm ready to move forward with my day in peace (rather than in pain). Thank you Adriene. You are a true inspiration. Namaste.

[irisjensen]

So crazy to see Adriene’s growth over the last eight years, and yet she’s still the same wonderful person bringing so much kindness to the world ♥️♥️

[XiluvmelX]

I'm actually doing this for cramps caused by an IBS attack and it is amazing. I'm also super anxious and panicky and this was just what I needed. I've been pacing and crying all day and I finally feel settled. Adriene, you are truly magical!

[ItsBrittanyyBeach]

I'm convinced this yoga sequence is magic. Went from a terrible headache and cramps to barely feeling the headache and practically falling asleep at the end. So peaceful! Thank you!

[annalukyanovich]

after every single yoga practice within last three months I say aloud: "thank you, Adriene". You changed my life and my approach to treating myself. Thank you today again, Adriene!

[maatherbasfar]

I remember the first time I tried this sequence I cried my eyes out because of the pain I felt in each movement. I didn’t find instant pain relief; however, month by month of practicing, I felt may overall period pain reduced. I even didn’t find the need to take any medications or pain killers, this workout is my therapy.
So, even if this sequence did not relieve your pain immediately, it well sure do over time.
Thanks Adriene!
