Happy Sweet 16, my friends!
You might question if this time is still valuable, and rightfully so. You are human! But hear my whisper…
This is time for you to tend to your most important relationship.
Be sweet to yourself so that you can be sweet to others.

I have been doing these 30 days challenges for a while now, but this is the first time I have actually been able to practice everyday. I was hesitant to post this seeing all the wonderful and lifechanging comments here. Until I realised I get to celebrate my small victories too, and I am so proud that I have made it this far!

I am taking the time to Appreciate Adriene, You always thanking us for showing up, so Now I am thanking you for showing up today. You have been here since few years ago and constantly updating us your practice, Last year when I found your channel, I felt clicked instantly.

Since starting yoga, I picked up a lot of goods in my life, better health, clearer mind, peace, being fit, daily exercise and thousands other benefits for my body, mind, and soul. Can't really thank you enough for making this available for us. After awhile Yoga has became not just a chore or "I have to do this" thingy for me, but rather a "I need to do this" addiction, but not quite. I want to do it, it feels good, and my body, my mind, and my soul love it. So I have no trouble taking up yoga like my morning cup of coffee :D even on my worst days I still managed to get at least 5 mins of yoga. It becomes my passion I guess.

Thank you for showing up Adriene !!
Thank you for being here and sharing your passion with us.
Thank you for being so self less and making it all for free.
Thank you for acknowledging us as friends,
Thank you for embracing our authenticity altogether.
Thank you for impacting, educating millions of us in Yoga.
Thank you for being you. I am grateful that you exist.
All the best for you, much love

Almost 2 years ago, I decided to start doing yoga to lose some weight and feel better. I didn’t have a specific goal in mind. I just knew that I needed to be in better shape and I really didn’t like how I felt in my skin. I started practicing Yoga with Adrienne on YouTube. I did yoga every day for 30 days. I started drinking more water, going for walks and eating smaller portions. I never weighed myself and still don’t. I felt like giving up and did not finish every practice, but I didn’t quit. After the 30 days, I kept going. I do yoga every day; some days are easy, some are difficult. I enjoy this practice because Adrienne will tell you to listen to your body and find what feels good. If you can’t go all the way today, then go half way and that’s okay! Slowly I began to feel better. I started noticing I could walk and breathe better. I could chase around a kid and not feel like my legs were going to fall off. And yesterday, I bought a pair of pants in a size medium! I think the last time I was in a size medium was middle school. I’m not trying to be a certain size or be sexy or impress anyone. I just want to feel better. And I do. I hope my journey can help you and I send all of you positive thoughts.

Today was so ridiculously relaxing - I was in a complete trance

I am so addicted to yoga because of you Adriene. You're the best guru one can get. Namaste and so much love to you and of course to dearest Benji 😍

Oh my god. I have been doing yoga for more then 5 months, every day. And i feel like today was something that cane straight from heaven. Literally. Thank you Adriene. It was awesome in the very literal meaning of this word. I don't think I will ever forget what I experienced today on the mat. I just love you. Thank you ❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❤️

Sometimes it's such a relief to be told to STOP all the effort and just take care. I always imagine that if I am not desperately trying, then nothing good is happening! Adriene's reassurance seems to give me the justification I need for the self-care. And now I'm thinking how odd it is that I need justification....

The other day I saw someone commenting that they like to refresh the page at the end of their yoga session to see how many people had watched the same video, so today I did the same. It felt good knowing 11 people did yoga with me today, the same practice at the same time, all around the world. It made me smile :)

[marieparkinson]

Oooooh this was delicious today, thank you so much. Just the gentle pace I needed this morning.
Namaste to all who practise this session, past present & future 🙏🏻

[febbiegrace]

It's a good day to be alive today ❤ Namaste everyone

[shubhamyadav]

Thank you Adrienne ❤️
Love the cheer you bring on my face.
We all love you ❤️💗

[cararaker]

I can't believe I'm here. This is the third time I've attempted your 30 days of Yoga and I only got to Day 5 or 6 each time because...maybe I just wasn't ready. I was impatient, I wanted toned arms and legs. I didn't understand that this really really isn't what it's about. It's about Dulce. Like you said. Thank you. Thank. You.

[anneferraro]

I love that with your yoga Adrienne “we find what feels good” there isn’t such a pressure to kill ourselves to be in shape but ironically daily practice leads to a better body and mental health. I seriously couldn’t imagine doing yoga with anyone else! Namaste!

[LadyPeters]

😍This is so perfect; *sweet yummy yoga* to *center* myself for today's emptional rollercoaster: I have an important pre-operation appointment with a surgical team [im so scared] before complex surgery with hopefully healing results!
Sending you ALL love & positivity from my home to wherever you are!❤🌎
Namaste 🙏🏼

[sonjabelchere]

I had a terrible nights sleep and it took all my energy to get on the mat today. How did you know Adriene? Sweet xxx

[landofKate]

The last two practices have left me with huge smiles by the end. I'm feeling really good, and I'm very thankful to be here now.

Day 96! Breath, Home and then Dedicate. What an emotional, mental physical difference!!

DAY 16: Dulce-- Thanks for a sweet session of soft and subtle moves. Each moment was sincerely appreciated! The softening of the motion brings about great strength!
