    Last month we focused on the practice and power of getting clear. This month we embrace the fact that the only constant is in fact, change.
    And so, we practice loving our existence IN THE FLOW.
    We align with the fact that what goes up, must come down and that struggles are in fact… real.
    This month, we use the tools of yoga to build strength from the inside out.
    Ease. Resilience. Flexibility. Joy.
    Catch A Wave.

      Wow, thank you for this. I'm just starting out with Yoga. I'm not a senior yet, but I have a lot of weight to lose so floor work is VERY difficult for me at this time. But I am so happy with myself that I was able to do this. It was a perfect way to start easing myself into a regular Yoga practice. Thank you, again.

    Admire day 17🎉 I needed this after a busy day and a lot of walking yesterday in the mid-day sun. I’m not a senior, but I am thankful for taking today's practice a little slower as I got a bit sunburnt so I'm a bit achy. I should know better than to trust it being cloudy from one part of Auckland and not cloudy in another part 🤦🏼‍♀️. Thank you, Adriene, for this slower pace and mindful practice, it's great even if you aren't a senior. 💖🧘🏼‍♀️🙏

    Following the Admire calendar here for 2024, and I have to say how perfect these practices have been for me. They have aligned with my cycles quite well. On my period, came some gentle practices, which was perfect for me, and now I am feeling pain in my ovu cycle and this hip work was perfect for opening and strengthening my hips. I needed this.

    Thank you. You don’t even know what this video means to me. Bad car accident, led to memory loss inducing (24/7) pain, loss of 50% muscle and control over my legs for two years, then spinal surgery. Deficit upon deficit. I was trying to do my favorite yoga from you as my therapy finished, but would end up in tears because I didn’t have the strength or control. Then I found this. Thank you, thank you. It was gentle, it was slow, and my broken body could mostly keep up, which was an incredible encouragement to my soul. Thank you…

    I admire the tenderness that I show to myself.
    So wonderful to take it slower today and really feel into each movement, allowing me to get closer to my inner being and tend to my energy systems. I feel calmed and cleansed ready for the rest of my evening. We can all learn from the older generations, as can be seen in this practice, that fast and furious is not always the way and a more gentle approach to life is much more supportive. Namaste all🙏✨💓🤗 xx

    I know this is a really old video, but I had to express my gratitude. I have been following you for years, and in the last 8-10 months I have been very ill, battling long-COVID, long tern effects from that, physical injuries, amongst other things and I’ve barely been able to move the last few weeks. I set an intention today to do yoga. I even set an alarm. Obviously a gentle yoga video of yours was my first choice, and I cried within 30 seconds of starting. I can’t tell you how capable I feel now at the end, and how proud I am of myself for getting through it and listening to my body without getting frustrated along the way. 🙏🏽🙏🏽 I can not thank you enough. I will be doing at least this daily until I have built some more strength back. ♥️

    At 69, one would think that I’ve practiced this one, but I haven’t and found it so refreshing! This is why: you didn’t ask us to do goofy stuff that I’ve seen other senior practices do. That’s why I stick with you, my girl! It followed well with the short yet powerful power yoga. I’m a little sore. And yea for the 71 year old body. Sometimes I feel like I’m the only old person that participates in yoga. I tout it to my old girlfriends, but they all say the same lame excuses, that don’t need repeating. Thank you Adriene! You do your best to reach the seniors! And I’m your biggest cheerleader!❤️🙏

I was afraid this would be too slow, but its amazing how she knows exactly what I need. I too, have been touting the benefits of Yoga to my old girls and actually sent this to a few of them. Looks like Adriene has a whole squad of Senior Cheerleaders!!

    I ADMIRE all of you for practicing today.

    Well, I turned 80 a few months ago. I do lead an active, joyful, and productive life as a gentleman farmer, but recognize that I have grown stiff. A dear friend recommend you to me, and after a search on "beginning yoga for seniors" was delighted to find that yours came up first! In watching this for the first time I see again how 'speedy' I am, wanting to pause and step away from watching after about a third of the way through and start the laundry, but I didn't!! My next step is to actually get on the floor, which is easy for me, and follow along with you as you do the poses. Paying attention to breath seems like a very good direction for me in the future. Thanks for the great video! You have a wonderful, living poise that is restful yet engaging.

    Intention : close my eyes and notice my breath
    What if I tell you that by just breathing mindfully you could lose weight and change your body inside and out says a senior yogi when I was still attending gym classes. She saw me huffing and puffing on the treadmill but don't have the discipline on eating habits after the workout, then she introduced me to yoga and I remember her through this video because this sequence is almost the same thing we did the first time I attended yoga class with her. Since that day I carry that wisdom with me, and although there are some ups and downs on my yoga journey, I am glad that I finally found a channel to help me commit to a lifestyle that will benefit me as long as I can mindfully breathe.
    Thank you Adriene
    See you all tomorrow beautiful souls
    Namaste 🙏🏼

    I began looking for some thing to help as my body has stiffened since I stopped working and I was recently diagnosed with BP issues. Being overweight and living in the Sonoran desert (literally dirt roads) with lots of hot temps and rattlesnakes makes it difficult to get outside for walks ..?so We’ve taken up your yoga classes.
    We get up at 4AM just to do this video before he leaves for work.
    It’s giving us better flexibility and a nice zen state to begin our day!!
    Thank you so very much for breathing some life into us. Love your videos, your instructions and your respectful ways. Namaste ❤️

    Still here for the 2024 journey. Admire, February 2024. Some of the longer sessions and more to come in the month, made me hesitant due to the time. But I let the thoughts pass and just go for it. Coming down from a cold and not exactly feeling energetic. I stuck to it and again, let the thoughts pass. Was pleasantly surprised and happy today is a more chill practice. Might not have moved swiftly, but I did move. Have a great day everyone!

    Process Day 17: How can such a slow practice fly by so quickly? I did this practice first thing in the morning and I think it's a peaceful, gentle way to start the day. Before the pandemic I was going to power yoga classes and the slow, gentle classes weren't for me, but since January I've been following the YWA calendars and I try every practice with an open mind. This practice is labeled as "Yoga for Seniors" but I think it can beneficial for anyone to bring calm and peace to their day. By the way, I like the piano music playing in the background.
