I hurt my back yesterday and I’ve been in pain since. I tried ibuprofen, a heating pad and some bio freeze and nothing really helped. I used to practice yoga about 3 years ago but I moved somewhere that is hard to find a good class. I thought I would try to find a yoga video for back pain and try it today. I came across you and did two of your videos. The pain is almost all gone now. 🙌🏻. I’m glad I found you here. I can’t wait to do other videos of yours. 💜

Alternative title: Yoga For When You Wake Up Feeling Like You've Been Run Over By a Bus. Exactly what I was looking for. Thank you.

I was skeptical as to how much 30 minutes would actually help but I'm still laying on the ground here enjoying my newfound back pain relief

[VedavashPradhan]

I can't express how grateful I am to you Adriene. Thank you so much for the role you're playing in this world. You've lived a life of purpose by helping the one's in need (me today). You've taught me yoga for free. I couldn't afford going to yoga classes because if my poor financial status rightnow. I would have never learned this beautiful art/ lifestyle without your videos. Thanks a lot. May your life be filled with stillness, calm, love and peace.

I have struggled with back pain for almost a year. I have tried physical therapy, massages, and other types of pain relief. They have all helped just a tiny bit. I was told by a doctor I was just going to have to manage my pain. That was unacceptable to me. After reading in a couple of different places that yoga helps with back pain I started doing this video. I did it four times a week for six weeks and my back pain is completely gone! It has changed my life! A lot of the poses that I couldn't do the first time I did the video, I can do them all now! I am so thankful to you, Adriene! I am going to start on your other videos now.

Starting a new school year while we're still in the midst of a pandemic has proved to be a challenge from every aspect. I work as a custodian in the same building I attended elementary school (I work nights), and part of my job this year involves having to spray disinfectant on every surface in each classroom I clean, then bend over each and every student desk to wipe everything down. Thank you in advance, Adriene for helping me get through this school year.

[gracerich-degasperis]

Praise God so many found back pain relief!!!

[deladeus]

My doctor recommended this video and oh my I feel so much better now. I wish I'd been doing this for years. You're an angel.

[noextrai]

Hi Adriene! I recently found my way to your channel. I haven't done much yoga before, so this is all foreign to me. But I'm just coming out of a very chaotic environment. I just stopped teaching in a third grade classroom; the dynamics that were going on were causing me to continue to get sick. It felt like a war zone in there; the amount of behaviors that were going on in the classroom made it very difficult to teach at all. I had students coming up to me saying they didn't feel safe; but I was doing all that I could: calling parents, writing kids up, and coming out with various rewards systems for positive behavior both individually and classwide. But still the behaviors continued on without any resolve. It kept intensifying. It got to the point where every day I went in I was experiencing health effects. I made the difficult decision to step away from the classroom to focus on my health.

All of that to say, I have been working on restoring trust with my body. I was so shut off to how stressed I was that it took my body stiff-arrming me (through nausea and intense sickness) to make me stop. I feel like I am trying to come out of an addiction to overstimulation and trauma. I am wanting to put my health first. I recently got both a fitness trainer and a nutritionist. In addition to those things, I want to get in touch with my breathing and movement exercises that help me focus on what is actually going on inside of me. "Is there pain present? Does that stretch feel good? Do I need to do the less intense version? Do I need to skip that movement altogether?" These are questions that you or anyone else can't answer for me. Only I can. I have to look inward and ask myself what is going on and then make the appropriate adjustments necessary.

Lastly, there are a lot of different yoga coaches out there and a plethora of yoga videos and I have been looking at many of them. However, I am drawn to your videos for a few reasons: (1) the presence that you carry. There is this deep sense of peace and safety that emanates from you. From the tone of your voice to the different ways to modify the movements, I felt like I (a yoga novice) can fully trust your instruction. (2) Your explicit instruction to get in touch with what is going on inside of our bodies. To stop if it hurts, to do a more advanced move if we can't feel the stretch. I feel like the explicit instruction you give is helping me to restore the trust with my body: that I feel and "hear" what it is communicating and I will make the appropriate modifications that I need to. (3) the overall peace that I experience. Again, this may go back to the presence thing. But I've watched videos where it is all about the moves or the breathing and to me it feels forced. But when I watch your videos I feel like I can fully relax and focus on the breathing and the movements. I realize this was a long comment, but I wanted to say that I'm glad to be a part of this huge community (ALMOST 11 MILLION SUBSCRIBERS!!!) and I look forward to explore the many other videos that you have put out. Thanks for who you are and what you do, Adriene!

[BuenosDiazz]

This is the video that made me fall in love with yoga, I do all types now but this is a classic I always come back to. The relaxation and cooling sensation I feel down my spine 3/4 of the way through this video is incomparable. Amazing practice.

[JoanneKatzman]

Only five days ago I was in acute pain and I tried this video, which was challenging for me. Even getting onto the floor and lying on my back was hard. Since then I have followed this practice again and have also done the yoga for lower back pain. I feel so much better today than five days ago! I could now follow this practice fairly easily and without modifications. To those of you who are feeling back pain, it will get better!

[Ale-xizr]

This helped me so much. I suffer from chronic back pain but nothing ever really relieves my pain. I read a Chakra book and the entire last portion was on yoga. After finishing my book I woke up this morning feeling like a bus ran me over. I watched this video a million times before but this morning I did it with intention. I focused on my breathing more than ever before, so much so that I attempted meditation after my yoga for the first time in years. Not only was ALL of my back pain relieved but I've never felt so at peace before. I literally was having an outer body experience. Thank you Adriene!!

I did the low back and the low back and hamstrings and I have been noticing a huge difference! I pinched my sciatic nerve about 2 weeks back, putting me down to where I couldn't walk, sit, or stand. Doing both of those videos over the last 3 or 4 days has already shown me a lot of improvement and I plan to continue a daily regiment with Adriene!

[maxwellgoldie_editor]

I come back to this video every Sunday on my "recovery day" and every week I feel amazing.

[PattyRN]

Thanks so much for every morning that I commit to this practice through your wonderful videos, Adrienne!! I have been practicing for several years, after a serious illness(MS) sidelined me from both my career (ED nurse) and running six miles daily. I needed a challenge, and I tried classes outside my home, but preferred the comfort of my own house. Through your videos, I have improved my balance, strength, and flexibility!! My neurologist is amazed!!! Your bright light personality shines in all you do -- thank you for sharing yourself with us!! This particular video is helping loads with the back spasms I'm presently having, but it's all good--helps to keep me humble! Thanks again, dear pinpoint of light - gratitude always!! Namaste, Patty S.
