This is the first movement I did after 8 days of Covid-19 bed rest. I’m quarantined in my bedroom. I cried in the middle of the video; I was so happy to be breathing better again and moving my stiff body. This video was perfect. I Googled yoga breathing sick and your video was one of the ones listed first. Your instruction and sincerity was heavenly. Yoga is my new medicine. Thank you

I like the mantra "my body takes care of me and I take care of my body." Also, yoga is magic!

Me: I wonder if Adriene has a yoga for when you are sick…. Searches….. 🥳. Adriene thinks of everything for us. I really needed this today. Thank you 💕 Namaste 🙏

9 years after this was posted and I'm still here for it. Thank you, Adriene, for all of your wonderful videos - and for helping me feel a bit better today.

Who’s doing this during corona virus season 😭🙋🏻‍♀️

I have covid and I'm isolating in a hotel by myself. This made me feel better and having you do the practice with me makes me feel less lonely

My body was telling “I need yoga, neeeed”, but with this cold, a little bit of fever... Then I thought, well Adriene thinks of everything... And here you are! Rescuing the weekend ✨💖🌷 A nurtured, reenergized and full of love Namaste, my friends 😊🙏

I love that no matter how I feel Adriene always seems to have a session that just fits perfectly

This video is 8 years old and still bringing folks comfort and movement in times of need ❤️ thank you for all you do Adriene!

I’m reading all of these comments of folks from a year ago, practicing while experiencing Covid, and I’m now using this video to help with post-vaccine symptoms. Impermanence is such a blessing.

Beginning stages of a nasty cold (I know who I caught it from). Trying to get ahead of it so I knew I could count on my girl Adrienne!

I do this video after bouts of depression where I stop moving and it always helps me ease back into it while also nurturing my soul. Thank you so much.

Used to wake up and follow Adriene every morning for months. Then I fell off for months more. Got my positive COVID results a day ago. Time to check back in and start the day off feeling my best again.

Doing this today on Day 4 of Covid. First day I feel like I can do anything besides moving from the bed, to the couch, then back to the bed again! Adriene, who knew when you posted this in 2014 that you would be supporting so many people during a pandemic!! Forever grateful for you.

I have a rare autoimmune disease so I changed that affirmation because my immune system is trying to kill me😂 Instead I said My immune system needs help to calm down and that is ok.

This is still my go-to when I'm sick and need a little something. It's so nurturing and makes me feel less negative about the whole situation.

I think my cat likes the sound of your voice! He always comes to chill on my mat whenever I put on one of your videos.

Recovering from corona and my lungs felt much more open after this session - thank you!

Okay so I just need to take a moment to appreciate just how amazing Adriene really is. Today I was feeling achy and fatigued but I've set myself a goal of doing a Yoga with Adriene video every day. I made myself a playlist of all my favourite practices I keep returning to but today I knew I needed something different. I type in Yoga with Adriene for fatigue and find this video. And boy was it just what I needed! Adriene really has a video for every occasion. And today I'm really grateful for everything she does for us and this community. Not only is she hella motivating, but she's also gentle and acknowledges that our bodies are different and that we're all at different points in our journey. I can't tell you how many times I've been so grateful for her giving alternative postures in a video or telling us to be kind to ourselves because all bodies are different. On top of that, she's always so fun and goofy and following her videos gives me a space to express my inner child and just have fun, which is so important! Thank you Adriene for being the best teacher. Love to you and to this amazing yoga community you've created!

Not me, who immediately started crying. First time moving my body not just from one side of the bed to the other after 10 long days. It really felt I wouldn't be able to this ever again... Thank you so much ❤

I have an autoimmune disease and chronic fatigue and the yoga sessions of the last days are catching up with me today, but I made the commitment to do yoga everyday, so this is perfect for these down days :)

Enjoyed that one Adriene, I'm sick here with a heavy prolonged cold and on my birthday no less!!

You should make more like this! It could be an entire playlist. Helped me so much as I finally had strength after being sick.

I cannot believe how much better I feel compared to 20 minutes ago. Thank you so much!

I haven’t been sick in over 5 years. Have somehow avoided Covid, colds, flu, etc. -always chalked it up to my daily YWA! Whelp something got me; been testing negative for Covid but I’m on day 5 of some crud, so this practice was very needed. Felt inspired to Om three times at the end when Adriene invited us to a mantra. The vibrations helped clear my sinuses a bit and now I feel clear enough to mask up and venture to the store for some soup and juice. Loved seeing baby-faced Adriene in the OG house for this practice. ❤🙏 🕉️

Thankyou, Adriene xxx

You know you've discovered the importance of yoga when you want to practice even when you're sick! I love choosing which YWA practice I'm going to do the night before so I'm motivated to do it right when I wake up! ♥️

currently have covid, and woke up sicker than ever today. it's easy to fall into negative, pessimistic, worried thoughts about my health. but this video helped me find some grounding and solace, and gave me a space to just be at peace. plus, physically felt great! relived a lot of congestion and swelling. breathing easier. will be returning here tomorrow, thank you :)

It doesn't take much for me to go to the dark side when I don't feel well. The slightest sign of a cold and I am lying on the couch feeling sorry for myself. This time I told myself to get out of bed and move my body, I feel much more positive and calmer after this video. Thank you

oh yeah yoga is medecine, so much than doctors tend not to believe I have fibromyalgia when testing my move range and wavy way of moving. I have quit antidepressant since I practice 1 hour per day and today I just felt like an old dog on a cold rainy day. After yoga I feel more like an old dog bathing in sunshine. :) Thank you for all you give to us, magical yoga is in the air!

EASE 🍁 | October 16, 2023 | Jumped ahead to this one when I saw it on the calendar as I'm definitely feeling under the weather today! Appreciate the positive affirmation about our body's healing! 🙏

Practicing this sequence while isolating from COVID. Makes me feel less lonely and also helps me trust my body. Thank you Adrienne.

Adriene you're the best! Can you make a study break yoga stretch for desk sitters

LOL!! Vicks..too funny and very Latino....thank you so much😘

And I am back here again recovering from a nasty cold. Always a go to practice. Thanks so much ❤

Fighting the fear and sickness with this practice today.

Right now, I'm in home quarantine for few days. This practice is all I need.

“This blanket smells like a horse” never fails to make me laugh, no matter how many times I’ve done this video!! ❤️

Im crying doing this. I feel so so sick 2024 and this was so loving. Like a mom comforting and nurturing me. Please do a new one of these please please

Christmas Eve COVID yoga from Tanzania, thanks Adriene!

Between studying, writing exams, and becoming sick, this yoga practice is exactly what I needed to feel better.

This was the best medicine 17 hour post 2nd dose of the Covid vaccine. I'll be doing this a few more times over the next several days and I move through my response to the vaccine. Thank you Adriene.

I've been trying to do a round of your 30 days yoga. I can't seem to make it a straight 30 days without getting sick or having terrible period pain but you always have a video for everything so I can keep doing yoga even when I feel crappy. Thank you! ❤

Thank you so much for this. I haven't had a cold in three years and was very down that this one had wiped me out. This video has taught me to be ok with it and take care of myself and not to be sorry for myself. I would love a few more sick yoga teachings to have a selection. Much love x

Thanks for this! I felt crappy before this, now I feel a little bit less crappy.

"I am SICK girl, I said I didn't want to work hard today!"😂 Finally feeling up to this after day 4 of covid and leave it to Adriene to not only motivate me to do yoga, but to laugh while doing it!

recovering from pneumonia and this has brought me back to life! blessings on you precious Adrienne.

Ease Day 22 🙏 October 22nd, 2023 🙏Gratitude for healthy immune system 🙏 prayers for all those that struggle with poor health 🙏

I hope everyone reading this has a blessed day and they find good health, healing and love

I have never commented on a video before, but I had to-- This video went at the perfect pace and provided such satisfyingly deep stretches with so many variations! Not only did you make me laugh, you were also so relaxing. I will recommend this video (all of your videos, as I do often) to anyone and everyone when they're feeling sick. Thank you!

Covid still causing havoc and I am one of its many victims in the city of Melbourne Australia this current Winter. I am so SO super grateful to you Adrienne for your commitment to help us in all our moments of need- I needed this and I forgot how powerful a mantra can be! Thank you 🙏

You are Always there for when ever we need you 🙏

Im in a period with a lot of endings and changes and ive had a pretty hard time releasing, so i definitely think it caused me to be sick. In thw middle of this video i just broke up crying because you were so comforting. Thank you for that.

Adrianne Thank you for helping me recover from covid!

Dear sweet Adriene 60 year old registered nurse here doing this video after being diagnosed with Covid. This is three years after the pandemic started and with all the precautions and masking coming back from a trip my husband and I succumbed to the virus. I am a firm believer of positive thinking, and I love your statement of “ yoga being your medicine”. Thanks again for all you do and for who you are. You have inspired me in so many ways and have gone back for YTT 200 hours.❤❤❤❤

Just like many people in these comments, I have Covid. After two years of health and three vaccines, the pandemic finally caught up to me. Thank you for reminding me that the light is within me. Namaste.

Now that I'm a Yoga Camper ;) I find I simply love having an "I" statement to accompany each practice. For this video: "I am healing. I am well!" This practice hit the spot today - I've had a really bad cold for 2 days. Might follow it up with a bedtime routine as well. Seriously, what was my life before Yoga with Adriene? xo and thank you, Adriene

6 months now of daily yoga and today I have an awful cold. But here I am on the mat! Thank you, Adriene, for your daily encouragement to get me here!

I do this every time I’m sick. I absolutely love it. Thank you, Adriene!

Adriene Yoga is my medicine cabinet. I just type in what ails me and find a practice that makes me feel so much better.

Thank you and get well soon everyone!

Adriene: I am doing your MOVE 30 Day Yoga Journey, but today I am under the weather and don't have the energy for "normal" yoga. I knew I could keep the 30 days going by finding this video and catching up tomorrow with the new stuff. Thanks for always having our backs! xo

Exactly what I needed!

Thank you for making me crack up laughing while sick doing yoga lol. Your an awesome human🩷

I have strep throat right now, and though I'm thankfully on antibiotics now, it was one of the worst experiences of my life. My throat felt like it was being torn to shreds every time I swallowed, and I had so much phlegm (I almost choked multiple times) that I had to swallow every minute or so. I did not drink except to swallow ibuprofen - and by the way, even a double dose of that didn't really help. The doctor took one look down my throat and went 'Good God!' For everyone watching: feel better

Great session thanks Adriene. Will save this for when I am sick.... was feeling a bit flat today and great practise for that.

I am in my third trimester of pregnancy and got sick, so got a bit sad about not being able to practice some birth prep exercises that I switched to from doing yoga with Adriene every morning and that's when I though about Adriene and her awesome videos again. It's incredible how I always find exactly what I need in Adriene's wide 'portfolio' and this pregnancy-friendly video just proves it once again 🙏 Thank you Adriene for all you do, all the love and the wisdom you share and for simply being who you are! ❤

Could never imagined how just 20 minutes could change that much I feel so much lighter and safe while having a flu thank you for being there for me ❤️your channel is like my safest home now

Adriene, we've never met but you have been such an inspiration in my life for about seven months now (when I started following your vids). Thank u for selflessly sharing your yoga with the world. I pray you are happy and healthy and are surrounded by nothing but LOVE. Namaste! MUCH love from Miami, FL.

I finally got to the end of weeks of stress and tension, to the day before my Christmas break - and tested positive for Covid. I now have to isolate through Christmas, and this little video helped me stretch my sad, achy body and process my emotions (which I find really hard). Thank you Adriene x

Adriene you are an absolute angel. Can't describe how perfect you are, the adorable humor, nurturing practice, just the most incredibly pleasant virtual companion. I was crying because how awful I felt with a virus, but then I decided to do this video and felt grounded, healed. Thank you

I have just done this as my first post covid yoga too. Lovely to see old yoga routines by Adrienne, she hasn’t changed one bit in her authenticity and motivation, it was always there. I figured covid can be included as “ ick”. Thank you it was just perfect. On the mend now ❤️❤️!

I have covid and this is nurturing. Adriene's yoga has been helpful to me for so many aspects of life. ❤

I change today's March pratice because I caught a cold in the last couple of days and I am feeling worse than the last previous days and I don't feel strong enough to do classic practice and again thank you so much Adriene ! You always have great solution for any situation ! I didn't want to skip my practice today ! Namaste.

I have been doing yoga with you for almost a year now and currently doing the Center ones! However, today I was too sick, and I am so happy that you gave this option as well. You are honestly amazing in every way and have helped me get through many rough days/moments in general. Thank you for being you!

Recovering from Covid and looking for some gentle movement to do! Tested positive right before Christmas :( My BF and I in isolation until after the new year...going to give this one a try. I love Adrienne's yoga. Always brings me to the right place.

This was the perfect practice -exactly what i needed to stretch out my body after having a stomach bug for the past few days. Thank you Adriene. Also I know I'm 5 years late to this practice ahahah

I have done this two days running whilst recovering from COVID - everything about it is deliciously nurturing and appropriate to what my body needs and how I’m feeling. Thanks Adrienne for the perfect sequence 🙏

I know I've undergone major change when having a cold is no longer a ticket out of movement. I did not feel like doing the class marked on the calendar for today, so I searched to see whether Adriene had a video specific for a cold, and here it is....!!! Although I have bookmarked several gentle practices that I could have used instead, this was perfect... tissue box and eucaliptus oil included....! Thank you...!!! I

Added this to your yoga session for sick recovery, for a longer yoga session. You really do have yoga sessions for all occasions, for which I am greatful. Thank you so much..

I have tried this today - I've been sick since yesterday morning and suddenly I thought about your videos and I was sure you had something that would help. I was right! Thanks again for your awesome videos :)

Adriene, this totally cleared my congestion! I thought it would be hard to do yoga while I'm sick, but it actually helped so much.

I am doing this while I'm covid-19. Wish me best luck guys, me and my family!

Lovely. And yes i had a huge smile on my face when you stated this blanket smells like horse. I am 5 days in my very first covid diagnosis. Which is 3.5 years into the pandemic, even though i think they dont call it a pandemic anymore. Pretty crazy flu symptoms with shortness of breath. But this was perfect. 2024 is my year in yoga. I will be dedicating 2024 to yoga, hiking, and holistic self care.

After 9 days of sleeping and resting because of Covid-19, I really felt the urge to do some yoga with Adriene! Thank you so much, I will return several times a day. My imune system works perfectly! 🙏🏼

This helps so much. I’ve had COVID for the past two weeks and it feels so good to finally be able to move gently again. I couldn’t believe how shaky I was during the forward fold and downward dog; those usually are my restorative poses and today they were stretching me to-and a little beyond-my appropriate limits. So grateful for the reminder to find grace where I am.

Recovering from corona. This is exactly the gentle love my body needed. Thank you xx

I'm always thankful to share this practice with my fellow mouth-breathers.

Funny thing is that I have the flu and decided to do my daily practice on the mat today vs in bed yesterday lol, so when I opened up the calendar practice for today I nearly pooped my pants! So great, and so perfect - thank you again!! Namaste ~

This was the first little bit of movement I felt brave enough to do on day 10 of having covid and being in quarantine, and it felt so good! During that seated forward fold I somehow was able to properly feel my body again for the first time in about two weeks and that brought me close to tears... Got to ease myself back into doing yoga regularly in the next few days now, and I'm really looking forward to it ❤️

Thank you so much. I’m on day 4 of coronavirus symptoms and my body was screaming for some love and movement. I still have a few days to go but this is my staple. Thank you for love and sincerity.

This one was nice. I’m not sick…yet, but I noticed during yesterday’s practice my body felt weaker and that’s usually a sign I’ve got something coming on. Thanks to yoga, I’m more in tune with the ol bod!

Feeling positive and more connected, even with this crudy cold. Thank you, Adrienne for your love and care!

“My immune system works perfectly” That is an amazing perspective and truth - thank you for always challenging my preconceived notions and refreshing my beginner’s mind. Much love for you and your videos!

Of course Adriene has a yoga video for when you are sick. Thank you so much for creating this. I have been grateful to have it while being isolated in my room recovering from covid

doing this on the 16th day of being tested positive with the c virus.. thank you adriene

Adriene, I love you. You have got me through so many different pains from illnesses to heartache. I've done every one of your 30 day challenges and teared up on the final day in pride for what I have accomplished. I've taken skills from your videos that have helped me keep my cool and probably helped me keep my job in times of extreme stress at work. Thank you for being you. Namaste.

This yoga practice was just complete bliss, thank you so much Adriene. 😊 I've been struggling with my body, my Fibromyalgia has been bad lately, and I have felt quite yucky for a bit. So this yoga practice was just beautiful, thank you so much again Adriene. You are awesome, Namaste my friend. 🙏💙

Woke up with a sore throat and a little fever and I immediately decided to look for one of your practices that might be geared towards feeling sick and BINGO! Thank you for that, Adriene. Your migraine practice already helped me a lot and I feel a lot better knowing that I'm taking care of my body and trusting it to heal itself on top of some traditional medicine. Namaste 💜

Thank you for this! I am an active person, but I've been sick in bed with Covid for a few consecutive days now, and my body aches from lack of movement and from laying down so much. I have so little energy, but this felt so good, and it gave me the nudge I needed to remember that I have the knowing and intuition to find what feels good. I just needed your guidance today, and I feel so much better now.
