Hey Adrien,

I am an Indian living in Australia for the last 3 years. I used to do yoga on a semi-regular basis when I was back in India but due to major life changes my connection with yoga was lost. Given the fact that I am a big foodie who loves to cook and eat I have put on some weight and look chubby.
A few months ago I discovered your videos on youtube (Love yoga for weight loss) and now I am huge follower. I am still not a regular on the mat but I strongly intend to work on and adapt to this new change of giving myself some 'me' time and do what 'makes me feel good'.

Thank you for motivating me.

Namaste,
Shefali

Hi Adriene! I'm a bit late replying to this post. Better late than never, heh? I just found your blog and inspiring videos last week, so I'm still a complete beginner for sure, but I enjoy it tremendously. I try keeping a twice-a-day routine, and the one thing it helps me most with is to quiet my mind from all the chatter our daily connectedness to the world brings. It helps me focus on my tasks for the day, instead of randomly checking Facebook or whatever. This is important to me, because it gives me the strength and focus to finish my portfolio work and hopefully get a job again soon. Only then can the rest of my life fall back into place again. Yoga = Focus. Thank you for your inspiring videos and blog. I'm s till reading through all of your past entries, and I enjoy everyone of them. I'm looking forward to reading more from you soon :)

Hi Adriene! I've happened on your yoga videos while searching on You tube, and they are just right! I'm in my early 40's, and have had scoliosis my whole life, but I've learned to manage it through gentle exercise. Any tips for those of us aging "gracefully" trying to practice yoga? Also, suggestions specifically for scoliosis stretches or movements? Appreciate the feedback, and thanks for making yoga a little more low key and fun! ~Jane

It's a rainy morning in Amsterdam, I just finished my practice inspired by your travel yoga sequence (the one with the seal 🙂 and then came to check out your website. No coincidence I stumbled upon this post because it's just what I needed to hear/read I feel like. I have a difficult uni exam coming up tomorrow and today I was starting to surrender to the feelings of anxiety, exhaustion and doubt and even frustration from the weather but hey, you reminded me that I can do this, dance through it all with ease and peace. So thank you very much for this and see you some other morning (or other time of the day). Hugs!

In reply to Kyle S. Say 'whatever' again, I dare you. I double-dare you...

A big part of adaptability for me is not falling into all-or-nothing thinking. If I eat something unhealthy for dinner, it doesn't do any good to punt on cleaning up my diet and go back to eating whatever. Instead, I make sure I eat a healthy breakfast the next morning. Whatever happens the rest of the day, I get stressed and run out of willpower or whatever, at least I can say I put something good in my body. May not sound like much to anyone else, but it doesn't have to.
