=================================
The only thing worse than shoulder pain is shoulder pain that wakes you up in the middle of the night.
We all know that sleep is important for healing; it’s the body’s time to recharge, recover, and repair. But when your sleep gets interrupted by the very thing it’s trying to heal… well… that’s a recipe for disaster.
Most often the shoulder pain that you’re experiencing in the night or in the morning is due to your sleeping position with that shoulder. Most people unknowingly put too much pressure on it or hold it in such a position that stress is placed on already-impaired structures.
If you suffer from shoulder pain that is waking you up at night or hurts so bad you can barely move it in the morning DO NOT despair! One of the best things you can do for it is to make some simple adjustments to HOW you’re sleeping to get a better night’s rest free from shoulder pain.
In this video I’m sharing four simple tips to eliminate your nighttime shoulder pain. These are different fixes for your sleeping positions to decrease stress on your shoulder and help you to sleep better.
I’ll present this in a “Top Four” format - we’ll countdown the four worst sleeping positions for your shoulder and I’ll give you some simple tips on what you can do instead to make for a more restful, comfortable night.
WORST SLEEP POSITIONS FOR SHOULDER PAIN - AND WHAT TO DO INSTEAD!
4. ON YOUR BACK WITH YOUR HANDS BEHIND YOUR HEAD - it’s better to bring that arm down to your side, but even then it’s still in an extended position and can put stress on the front of your shoulder. Instead lay on back and supported under your your elbow
3. ON YOUR NON-PAINFUL SIDE, INJURED SIDE UP - Grab two pillows to hold it up (2 pillows better than one). Prop one under your elbow and the other in front of your body.
2. ON YOUR PAINFUL SIDE, INJURED SIDE DOWN - Best thing to do is unload it. Grab two pillows and put one about 6 inches below the other. This creates a canal to unload the shoulder as you have one supporting your torso and the other supporting your head/neck.
1. ON YOUR STOMACH WITH YOUR ARMS UNDER YOUR HEAD
Honestly the fix here is just don’t do it. If you want to fix your shoulder pain, neck pain, upper back pain, and lower back pain - you need to stop sleeping on your stomach.
I hope those tips help you to sleep better with your shoulder pain. I give those to my physical therapy patients regularly and I know they can be super effective. I hope you find them helpful in alleviating your pain as well.
If you are experiencing shoulder pain, one of the best ways to relieve it is with the proper home rehabilitation exercises. These videos are some of my best stretching and strengthening routines you can do at home to alleviate shoulder pain:

I sleep on my left side, which is the shoulder where I have osteoarthritis and biceps tendinitis. I did change my pillow and am going to try the tips from the video. Thanks.
Love it! I sleep in No.2 and did the pillow remedy in trial and error to ease the pain. I'm happy its a remedy. Thanks for sharing all the others.
I used to sleep on my back with both arms straight overhead like I was under arrest. I didnt start that way but I ended up that way. Now I sleep with an arm wrapped around a sleeping cat in one arm and a pillow under the other one.
I’m sleeping on my right side but tend to shift back and forth under the night. But this summer I hurt my left shoulder and ended up with a frozen shoulder that really hurts. I tried all the pillow remedies but I wakes up in the middle of the night with pains and the pillows on the floor. They help as long they are still in position but ends up in a mess. So what can I do? Keep on trying because it’s like everything else. You have to teach your body to accept the new situation.
I try sleeping on my back, however, I do sleep on my right sometimes ( shoulder discomfort) will try your recommendations
I find my wife’s knee in my back to be the most natural sleeping position. The knee in the back makes me completely forget about the lower back pain.
? I didn't understand this position, can you please explain coz even I get frequent backaches
Aww that's so sweet!!
At least you have a wife 😔
🤣🤣🤣
:)
And also it's so rare to find someone who talks in details like this and this is what i really needed so i can do the exactly right thing without needing someone else's help so keep the excellent work , i don't know why would anyone complain about this advantage
Thank you. My left shoulder would be so messed up and I could not lift it. I did this for a few days and I have no problem anymore. Thank you very much.
Great news, TEL! I am glad these helped and thanks for sharing!
I have this problem too I will try it my sholder hurt too much doctor said my muscles are injurd due to stitching i will try it
You changed my life! Thank you so much brother after only 1 night all my pain has gone away!! I'm so happy and excited to continue my life in the kick boxing gym
Oh, what great news! Thanks so much for sharing!
I'm a side sleeper, don't, can't, won't sleep on my back or stomach. I discovered or created the shoulder 'canal' or 'trough' for myself a good while ago and am very pleased to see here on your video that I've been doing the right thing. It's seems to really be helping my right shoulder.
Thanks for sharing!
Oh yes, I can attest to the extra pillows support- I am one of those folks that must sleep on left side which happens to be my sore shoulder /rotator. The gap with pillows is perfect for sleeping on my sore side. I also turn slightly on back with a pillow behind me as you described so well in this video. It was a life saver. Thank you to you and your wife for a really great, educational channel!
I cant thank you enough. After my neck surgery I was having trouble sleeping and had so much shoulder pain that It took everything I had just to put a shirt on. I was working on my Shoulder pain in Physical therapy with no relief. I was actually starting to get depressed about it.
I came across your video and gave it a try. What a difference. Seriously after the first night I could lift my arm above my shoulder again. I sleep and feel so much better now. I actually wake up early just to see how much better I feel. This has been life changing. Thank you
Oh, I love to hear this! You are so welcome and thank you for sharing!
what position did you choose- the side that hurts? the 2 pillows?
i’ve been dealing with neck and shoulder pain and it makes it so hard to sleep. i’m almost certain it’s because of my bizarre sleeping positions. i tried one of these positions and instantly my pain was gone and i felt so comfortable. thanks man
I love to hear that! Thanks for sharing!
I found this video through a Google search and OMG! The next morning I woke up after sleeping with all 3 tips, I felt instant relief! I somehow got used to sleeping on my stomach with my arms up and was suffering from shoulder pain. I couldn’t even lift my arm up to put my shirt on for 2 weeks. I can now raise my hand up with no pain in my shoulder at all! Saved me a trip to urgent care or the emergency room. Thank you!!!
Wonderful news! You are so welcome!
Arms up under headisbad
This video changed my life! I am sleeping so much better now, and the shoulder injury is improving. Thanks so much!
I love to hear that, Sarah! You are very welcome and thanks for commenting!
I tried it and got the best sleep for a long time.
You changed my life!! THANK YOU for making this video! I woke up with maximum pain in my shoulder today. I have never got hurt or any history of health problems, im early 30s. I do not want to pay a specialist to learn how to properly sleep because i am saving sincr my gf is pregnant and we dont make much money. As the responsible man, i need my health for my new family's sake but with this pain i feel useless cuz moving my arm, turning my head to look right when i drive, putting a shirt on, ect all hurts alot.
You are amazing and thank you from the bottom of my heart
You are so kind! Thank you so much for your comment!
Have been sleeping on my left side from past 12 to 15 years and finally been diagnosed with shoulder impingement. Tried too many exercises, which helped me to reduce pain but needed a better and comfortable sleeping position. This comment is immediately after trying the first position (pillow 45 degrees half on chest) for 5 seconds and the instant relief was great. So commenting this while holding my phone with left hand and aggregating the pain. 😜But the first position really helped. Will comment further on remaining positions.
Edit. #2 position is great as well. The relief is amazing. However this only for people who can sleep with too many pillows. But as he said earlier sleeping with dozens of pillows is better than waking up of pain. #3 position is really bad and should be avoided at any cost. Making a canal and tilting a bit on our back side helps a bit but is not as helpful as #1 and #2. So please try to avoid #3. #4 is a big no. Can't do anything for #4 people because it's not only hurting your shoulders but your spine, chest and God knows what not. So #1 and #2 are best so far.
Not a doctor not a fan just trying to help who are suffering like me.
The pillows were great. They worked wonders. I have to admit when you go to sleep you’re in for the long haul and with all the pillows it makes that night so much more comfortable
So glad you found them helpful, Jason! Thanks for sharing!
My Cradling Sleeper has been a great help for thousands with this problem. It comfortably elevates the torso to remove pressure on the shoulder and get better sleep. Thanks for letting me comment here.
Excellent tips, and so simple to apply. I tried the first tip while watching the video and couldn’t believe how much more comfortable my shoulder felt immediately. I’ll sleep like a baby tonight.
Thanks so much, Talbots Block! I am glad these tips helped you!
I bought double mattress adjust4sleep in past 4 yrs. I think i should have opted for a single mattress because its not even. It shallow in the middle and that's makes sleeping very uncomfortable😢. Thanks to your videos, just first application and I feel much better😅...
@@toneandtighten what is your advice on tendinitis pain in shoulders and neck because I have that
i searched out evrrywhere but to no avail like u have suggested my aching shoulders..tnk u...
I dunno but in my experience u put urself in the position when u jump into bed but i alway wake up in a completely dif position as most ppl do . There’s nothing u can do about it
Hi,
Since you asked about sleeping positions, I'm happy to share mine which is quite specific & intricate, and works very well for me. I sleep mostly on my right side, with two pillows.
Under my head I use a dense Tempurpedic pillow for support. Feather pillows collapse so they're no good. I like to have my head at the same angle as my body.
Then I use a full-length, Tempurpedic body pillow to 'hug'; I affectionately call it my "huggy pillow". When I'm laying on my side, if I don't have this body pillow, my left arm would hang and my knees would meet and cause tension. With the body pillow, my left arm & leg rest gently across it. Plus, I have the body pillow come right up against my lower jaw to keep my mouth closed and prevent snoring by forcing me to breath through my nose. Between my head pillow and my body pillow is a gap just perfect for my right arm.
Not done yet. My going-to-bed regiment is not complete without an earbud in my left ear, listening to something on TH-cam. I know this might sound crazy, but I cannot sleep with complete silence, or even soothing sounds like White Noise. I need to listen to something in order to keep my brain from going into overdrive and stirring over the day's stress.
With that, I'm inevitably out in 10-15 minutes.
Great video & excellent tips! Love the conviction on the “no sleeping on your stomach”….agreed👍
Makes sense and is basically so simple. I’ve got both shoulders messed up from my 22 years of military deployments and don’t sleep very good with the nagging pain, but one week of using these tips has improved my sleep by 60% so far. Thank you sir.
You are very welcome, Thomas! I am happy to hear these tips have helped you.
thank you for your service
I can't believe I am searching for this, and youtube had the answer. Thanks for the advices.
You are very welcome! I hope you found it helpful!
Thanks for the advice , I have been suffering shoulder pain for years , I'll try out the new way to sleep tonight .
You are welcome, Paul Tam! I hope you find these helpful and you get a good night sleep!
Thank you so much for this video!! I have been dealing with shoulder injuries for almost 2yrs. First the right then in Aug the left one flared up. Sleep is so hard😭😭😭So thank you again!!!♥️
You are welcome, Sylvia Weber! I hope you find this video helpful and thanks for commenting.
Oh man. I feel for you. Shoulder injuries make sleeping a nightmare.
I love it because these positions help us to stay aligned throughout the night. Thank you😘
I can't sleep on my left side because I get heart palpitations so sleep on my right side but the pain starts in my left shoulder and I spend a majority of the time trying to get in a position that is less painful and comfortable and I'm going to put my 8 pillows to good use from now on... You're A Blessing
I hope it helps!
Tummy sleeping also restricts the airway - that invisible part of the orofacial complex :) Excellent video! I will try the pillow one tonight!
Hello Simi
How are you dooing today?
Best night’s sleep I’ve had in months! Thank you!
You're so welcome, Carrie! I am so happy to hear that!
That beind said we are now on the same page you have helped me have less pain and with keeping the arm elevated and there you have it Thank you sir
I'm a side sleeper who had bad shoulder pain, but the Med-Cline pillow has helped my discomfort tremendously.
I gotta try that position with the pillows. My shoulder pain has been killing me, today worse than ever. I've been sleeping in all those worst positions you mention in your video!😆 so, no wonder my poor shoulder hurts more and more. I'll try your pieces of advice and I hope it'll help.
Best of luck! I hope you find something that works for you!
Thanks! Great advice again. I have now gotten used to sleeping pretty much on my back also using pillows on my left side to keep me from wanting to turn directly on that shoulder during sleep and it's working out great - actually sleeping better than before!
You are welcome! I am so glad you are feeling better!
Was able to get a good night's sleep with no pain using solutions to sleep positions#4 and #3, thank you
Thank you Mr. Jared!
That was very helpful especially to me who always have neck and shoulder pain.
Thank you!
Keep safe and God bless you and your family🙏❤
You are very welcome! I am glad you found these tips helpful and thanks for sharing!
@@toneandtighten 🙏😊❤
I have actually used a maternity pillow to position myself really comfortably like demonstrated in this video. I’m really happy that this video gave me validation that those positions are best. I went to the doctor and they offered me zero insight and it was so frustrating because of the pain. This video is invaluable, thank you!
Thank you so much for sharing! I am glad you found this helpful!
Is the maternity pillow a C shaped pillow? And do you find it helps alleviate body pain?
Hi
The hack for laying on my bad shoulder is a winner, thanks
Thank you for sharing. I had a stroke and have deficits to my arm and have shoulder pain so this will be so helpful!
And the answer of course is more pillows,lol. Great!
I fell on black ice in my driveway smashed my right shoulder hard. Took two weeks before I could use my arm again. Slowly getting better. Thanks for the vids.
Oh my goodness thank you for the video. This is right on time. I'm mostly position #1 with pillows and then rotating from side to side with pillows and my pillows were not positioned like yours. I will try the new positioning and stop sleeping on my stomach. Thank you so much.
You are so welcome! I am glad it was timely and I hope the tips help you!
Thank You got all your help. Even my surgeon and physical therapy doctors could help me out with this much info on sleeping and that’s when my pain is the most debilitating!😭❤️
You are so welcome! I am so glad you found this video helpful!
I wish this video was available when I had my two shoulder surgeries, 10 years ago. I struggled with finding a comfortable sleeping position for months. Great info!
Glad it was helpful!
Wow! Watching this video tonight was a God sent gift! I’ve been waking up through the night for the last few days with left shoulder pain and was considering making an appt. with a shoulder specialist, but after watching this excellent video, I’ll skip the doc nd willI try these new tips tonight. I love your effective and practical videos. Thank you for helping your viewers improve their health, fitness and mainly, enjoy their lives and bodies. God bless you!
You are welcome, Sonia! Good luck and I hope these help!
Gosh. I’ve been waking up with shoulder pain each night for months now-due to my rotator cuff injury. Really sucks.
Perfect timing :) ❤
Thank you so much, Madagaskar1987! I hope these things help you, and thanks for commenting!
I hadn’t slept properly for over a week when my shoulder impingement got worse, but after watching this video last night, I slept so much better! I can’t sleep on my back and laying on either side was just too painful, so I tried the side-sleeping pillow positions and it was such a relief to the pain. I only woke up once in the night and I wasn’t in as much pain in the morning. Thank you so much!
Glad it helped!
Feel ok
I have had bicep tendonitis for months on end without any improvement at all; I had visited a physiotherapist (who gave me exercises) a chiropractor (who gave massages) and a doctor (who just said to wait it out). Despite that, no noticeable improvement. When I tried the 3:40 sleeping position, my recovery improved dramatically - this has been virtually a life changer as far as i'm concerned. I am now slowly getting back to previous functionality. THANK YOU for uploading this. I was searching only for shoulder exercises but then the blessed algorithm suggested me this.
NOTE: For the 3:40 sleeping position, I do add an extra pillow underneath so that my arm is not even slightly bending downwards; its at a total 90 degree angle relative to my side. I have taken this an extra step forward, so when I sit on the coach I have pillows under my arm to support it there also.
Thanks so much for this video! I mainly sleep on my back and on my side (affected shoulder side up). For the past two nights, I've followed your advice and I didn't wake up with shoulder pain. I see now the mistakes I was making. I don't care how many pillows it takes. I want to get a good night's sleep! Thanks again!
You are welcome, Lisa! I am happy to hear you are finding this video helpful!
Hi
Great video! I have an impingement in my left shoulder. I've tried all of these techniques, and they all work.
Great news! I am glad these tips helped and thanks for sharing!
Do you still have it
Thanks so much lying down is becoming so anyoying with sholder pain ill try these pillow positions tonight.
This video is great. First one I've found to be helpful for sleeping with shoulder pain. You have described exactly what I'm experiencing
I am so glad you are finding it helpful!
I swear you know exactly what I’m going through right now! 😂 2nd video in like a week that is all about my pain 😩 thanks for info! Been going to therapy and soon an acupuncture! And all wanted was a trigger point shot. I do have chronic pain but this shoulder pain is definitely high on the list!
This video just came up in my recommend feed. That's how I've been sleeping for years. I use my big "my pillow" for hugging and a smaller one between my elbow and ribs/waist. Then there's one for my bottom arm to lean up against to ease elbow extension. And, last but not least, a reasonably flat one been my knees/thighs. Sounds like overkill, but it helps.
That sounds really cozy! I"d love to try it, but I don't have enough room for all that in a shared bed. Maybe I'll just get a bigger one...
Great first example is how I am comfortable falling asleep and I’ve recently went from one sore shoulder to both bein very painful ….will try the pillow 45* angle thing tonight
And then to finish it off the position I move to when the pain wakes me up is you’re number one worst position lol I can’t wait
This is such helpful advice! Thank you
You are so welcome!
Massive difference in a couple of days.
As a weightlifter type, I have spent years with on-and-off shoulder pain. Forcing myself to sleep on my back has made a much bigger difference than all the rehab type exercises I have tried.
So glad you are feeling better!
Thank you again. That was exactly the problem I was having you have some great suggestions I really appreciate it
You are welcome, Sue! I am glad these were helpful and thanks for commenting!
Good clues thank u sir.
I needed this! for my shoulder. The worst is at night! So I hope this help me
Best of luck!
This is right on time, even though my shoulder is getting better. I will use your tips to position myself for better sleep tonight.
Hope it helps you, Leticia! You'll have to let me know how it goes!
Thank you for sharing your great knowledge. Your videos are the best and very helpful. Bravo💖
Thank you so much! That means a lot to me. I hope the things I share have been helpful to you, and thanks for your support!
I have slept on the couch which is very firm (& on the side) for many weeks due to depression + insomnia, and now I have shoulders pain. I thought it was because of my lifestyle (i workout a lot) but my sleeping position might be one of the reason I’m in pain right now. None of the rehab workout work to elevate the pain (kind of a burning pain, like someone is stretching my tendon 24/7). I will force myself to sleep on my bed and on my back for now and will come back for an update in a couples of weeks so my situation might help others who are dealing with the same pain. Cya
Awesome tips!! Thx.
You bet!
How timely, thank you!
You're very welcome, Joseph1NJ! I hope they help you! Thanks for commenting.
My shoulder has been in pain for weeks and every time I woke up the pain was worse in the morning, not anymore!
Thank you so much this was so helpful!
I sleep on the good shoulder with the pillows now and it’s very comfortable but I also tried the other method for sleeping on the injured side and on the back and they all were good and comfortable. Thanks!
Oh, what great news! I am so glad this video helped you and thanks for sharing!
Number 2 worked great for me! Thanks!
Glad it helped!
Glad I found this video. I am up in the night with severe pain in both shoulders. I thought let's Google it and this came up. I'm guilty as charged with 1 and 2 - front sleeper and sleep on both sides, that are always just hurting. I'm going to try the 2 modification, fingers crossed this works!
I hope you find these helpful and get a good night sleep!
Thank you! Thank you! I tried the side sleeping off the non-injured arm and it worked like a charm! No pain after waking up this morning. Not sure hubby liked the extra pillows, but happy wife, happy life.
Amazing to hear! I am so glad you are feeling better and thanks for sharing!
I sleep exactly as described here on the injured side with a smaller flat pillow under torso with a dip for shoulder and a slight turn of back onto. a squishy pillow. Opens the chest for breathing. For me this is most comfortable with or w/o shoulder pain. Love your videos, Jared!
Thanks for sharing, Lisa!
💡 💯
Great. I was needing help exactly with this. Thanks 🙏
You're welcome! I hope it helps!
Thank you. I needed this info.
You are so welcome!
Honestly saw this few weeks ago & position 2 with shoulder under torso & rolling back was a game changer. Had this rare shoulder pain only when sleeping on my right shoulder for first time ever for weeks which felt awful, thought it was just sprain would go in few days, this really eased the pain/comfort & thankfully most the pains gone. Also back generally feels better with pos 2 as feels supported.
So glad that helped and thanks for sharing!
Thank you so so much. I've been in pain far too long and now I can sleep comfortably . I'm crying with joy right now. However, I've had to use two pillows for support to give me the relief I need.
You are very welcome! I am so glad these tips have helped you!
I have both shoulders that hurt. Right one is the worse. Not only the shoulder blade its the ribs, arms, hands too. For 13+ years now. The past 5 + years the left shoulder blade etc, arm have gotten worse because I've tried to sleep on that side all this time. I do do some better in a recliner "sometimes"
Seriously you listed all my sleeping positions🥺. Watching this with severe shoulder pain 🥺
I hope this video helps!
Watched this new video again...thanks Doc 😊❤️
You are welcome, normi bu! I hope you are finding it helpful!
Hi
Thank you! I have so many pillows in my bed! I know I am on the right track. Have been having left shoulder pain for so many years now.. was always a stomache sleeper and it still is my favourite position. Will try to avoid it as much as possible from now on.
Sounds like you're on the right track, Janny! Good luck and I hope you feel better soon!
Thank you for the advice very helpful
You are so welcome!
probably the simplest video among all with a simple and clear solution
I hope you find it helpful, s K!
this was beyond specific: love it! thanks for covering so many ideas especially for stubborn people like me who sleeps on my most painful side! 🤣
You are welcome!
This is very helpful! Thank you for sharing these tips. Been experiencing shoulder pain in my left , i'll try this starting tonight.
You are very welcome, victoria! I hope they help you out and thanks for sharing!
Great and helpful tips! Instant comfort! Will sleep better tonight. Thank you so much!
You're so welcome!
😊 thank you .. very useful , both my shoulders has been ache-ing for years , so i'm all over this 🙏
You're so welcome!
I had found this to be true. However, it makes for an dispute over bed space now. So... I know sleep in the recliner most of the night, and it helps A LOT. When I do sleep in bed, I definitely relate to #3 and will be adding that second pillow under the elbow of my arm. Currently I use just the first pillow under my arm to prop it off bed.
Thanks for sharing! I am glad you found some tips you can try out!
Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!! This video was exactly what I was looking for I'm super guilty of sleep positions 2 & 3 while having impingement syndrome and I knew it was only making it worse, especially my go to....sleeping on the affected shoulder side. 😕😬 I desperately needed some relief because my shoulder is getting hard to abduct/adduct starting as of today. This video is a definite sleep saver and one I will reference often for this issue. Again, thank you for the much needed sleep positioning advice.
Oh, wonderful news! I am so glad you found this video helpful!
oh man i wish i’d had this information 3.5 years ago when i was pregnant and in agony with my shoulder but told by the doctor that i absolutely had to sleep on that same side for the baby 🥲 now i’ll know what to do next time!
I had the best night’s sleep in YEARS thanks to this guide. Years and money wasted on experts who, not once, recommended sleeping positions. The pillow supporting the torso when side sleeping was the winner for me. A huge thank-you ❤
Great to hear!
This is GOLD!
It's nice to know I'm not crazy. I've been doing stuff like this since I've had 3 shoulder surgeries. I wish they'd known more back in the day...
I don't know what I did to make my shoulder angry, but it's certainly demanding a lot of my attention. Trying to sleep has been the worst. These seem to make sense; I'll be trying them. I might have to get creative with some plushies though; I don't have a pile of pillows.
Edit: Oh. My. DOG!
THANKYOUTHANKYOUTHANKYOU!!
Thanks for this Divinely ordered information
Glad it was helpful!
You nailed it!!! thank you. even the gravity on my shoulder hurts when I'm lying down, so the pillows are a great way to alleviate the pain.
I am glad you found this video helpful and thanks for sharing!
THANK YOU LORD!!!! :>) OMG!!!.... I can FINALLY SLEEP AGAIN!!!!!
Pain started Dec 2nd 2021 and could not sleep good till Dec 11th when i came across your video!!!!

You are welcome! I am glad these are helping and thanks for commenting!
Hopefully ur pain does go away soon
Wow I have learnt so much thank you I have issues with about 3 of those sleep positions
i sleep on my back and find it ironic that something as simple as a pillow under my arm like this can help sooo much!? this has helped immensely! kudo's to Tone abd Tighten for posting this!
Oh, wonderful! I am so glad that trick worked and thank you for sharing!
I'm sleeping with a sea of pillows tonight. This was a very informative video. I got a right shoulder strain today at work and I'm used to sleeping on my stomach so sleeping is gonna be challenging.
I am glad you found this informative and I hope the tips help you sleep well!
Thank you so much for this awesome video!
You're so welcome! I hope you are finding it helpful and thanks for commenting!
