Thank you so much for opening up Adriene. I fell out of practice and almost everything bc of feeling overwhelmed due to work circumstances for a longer period of time. Your newsletter and vlog found me in the week where I decided it was time to take a step back and care for myself. It’s so helpful to know I am not alone 🙏🏻❤️

Adriene, I love letter for YOU. Your energy is raw. And I can relate. You will be fine, my darling. I suspect your hormones are toying with you. As a woman of a certain age (much older than you!), I've recently been there. My imbalance had me anxious, for the first time ever. It is terrifying when you feel like you just trying to hang on. Barely. Plus, everything else. Thank you for feeling what we feel. And showing it. We all see you, with admiration, always. Now we see ourselves in you. More than ever. The difference is, you have to show up, publicly. We may hide, go inside, be invisible for a while. You don't have that luxury. Thank you for being brave. You will find balance. Keep at it. It is then you will sing and dance again. Because you feel like it. Lift your dusty hoove. And step forward. You will arrive. We are patient. Take your time. We'll be here waiting for you.

Thank you for your amazing energy and care that you put into the community. You are truly a light in this world! I always feel strengthened to go out and do my work in the world with a little more joy and compassion after one of your sessions, and I hope that you can rest and feel the love you put out into the world return back to you 10 fold! All blessings to you!

You and your classes have added such positivity, peace and health to my life. Two years ago I was diagnosed with stage 3 colorectal knsr. I’ve since gone through chemo, radiation, ileostomy surgery, more chemo and reversal ileostomy surgery. I’m currently ‘no evidence of did-ease’. Needless to say, my body was affected by the treatment. My hips, pulled tight from the radiation, lost some mobility. I have neuropathy in both of my feet and my muscles, as a whole, move differently now. I stumbled on your class a year ago and have been a regular ever since. Because we hold emotion in our physical body, when I first began your classes, I would sob uncontrollably. I was so grateful to be able to practice in the safety of my home. Your sense of humor, your softness and openness, your knowledge of breath work and yoga, were and still are a salve for my body and soul. You help me reconnect with my whole self. Your blogs and vlogs are a bonus and so appreciated. Thank you from my heart. Julie Devereaux

I got emotional about the 10 year anniversary! I love the YWA and FWFG (same thing) community! Have a safe and beautiful trip Adriene. As someone who struggles with anxiety and depression, the honest and open communication the past couple vlogs was greatly appreciated. I always turn to your videos and this community to help ease those feelings. It is a great reminder for me that I am never alone, and I hope others know that they are not alone. Love you Adriene and everyone else here in the community!!! Take time out for you!

Thank you for all you do. You inspire me to be the best I can be, and my daily yoga with you has changed my life. Enjoy the journey, safe travels, and as my late father-in-law would say “never lose the flavor“.
