I come into the presence of still water.</p><p>And I feel above me the day-blind stars</p><p>waiting with their light. For a time</p><p>I rest in the grace of the world, and am free. </p><p><br></p><p>Love,&nbsp;</p><p>Adriene</p>

Dear Adriene and YWA Community, the poem was beautiful; it made me cry. I am feeling such joy at small, mundane things and such sadness and fear around the state of the world. It is comforting and empowering to be a part of this community. You are helping push me beyond the yoga mat to do small things like begin to participate in some political activism, safely of course. I always thought that I didn't have time as a working mother of two. Now I see that I do have time, and I can do it with my kids and my community if I make time. Have a beautiful month, everyone. Thank you for your love, community and the PUSH (in the most loving way) to shift and build. Love &amp; Namaste, Rebecca

Today was my first day with students. Finally, I feel my purpose after days of feeling like everything has been tossed up in the air and spiralling above me ... Feeling lost as everything has changed for us teachers. Feeling exhausted after only one week back in school. Soooo, thank you for being you and for this wonderfull poem. Made me feel good!❤️🙏🇨🇦❣️

Hello! Big fan over here. Been a part of Yoga With Adriene for years now, and am a new member to FWFG. Loving it by the way! Quick question, you mentioned the conditioning videos for core, upper body, and lower body...I was able to locate the core video, but not the upper and lower body videos. Are those videos going to be released on a later date? Thank you for all you do!

Hi Adriene - thank you so much for the lovely poem it was beautiful. I just joined the FWFG community and am hoping to feel connected with everyone here. I was diagnosed with clinical depression a few weeks ago, and your videos have helped keep me going even in the darkest times. I love that you are so authentic and real in all your vlogs and your videos. It makes me feel like even when I'm alone I have a friend out there who I haven't even met before that cares for me and loves me. I am sending love and prayers to anyone else out there in this community that is going through what I am going through. We are in this together. Love ya'll!

Thank you so much. You really have to launch a new channel: Poems with Adriene! I really love listening to you reading poems. Maybe a podcast, no? :) Love knowing you're somewhere when I'm feeling blue and anxious but also when I'm feeling good and happy! Love you Adrienne. Thanks for all the love and smiles you're sharing with the world. You're precious.
