I love yoga. It is a great way to get flexible, build strong muscles, and destress. About a year ago I stumbled across a YouTube channel called Yoga With Adriene. Adriene uploads videos of yoga sequences every Wednesday, and I am constantly visiting her channel because there is such a wide variety of videos to enjoy. Here are my top ten favorite Yoga With Adriene videos (in no particular oder).
1. Yoga for Complete Beginners- 20 Minute Home Yoga Workout!
Adriene has 11 videos in a playlist called Yoga For Beginners. This is a great video to start with if you haven't done yoga in a while, or this is your first time trying it!
2. Morning Yoga- Gentle Morning Sequence
Adriene has 7 videos in a playlist named Morning Yoga Routines. This Gentle Morning Sequence is great for me because I like to ease slowly into my day, but she also has energizing sequences you can do if you are a morning person.
3. Yoga For Bedtime- 20 Minute Practice
I hate going to bed stiff. If you are someone like me who needs to stretch before falling asleep, this is a wonderful sequence to help you unwind, relax, and get sleepy at the end of a long day.
4. Yoga For Headaches
I get a crazy number of headaches. Most of them are tension headaches, which are accompanied by shoulder and neck pain. This video is very soothing and helps to relieve some of that stubborn pain.
5. Yoga For Back Pain
Like most people, I suffer from back pain from time to time. This video is awesome for stretching out your back. This is probably the video I watch most often (she also has separate videos to focus on specifically the upper or lower back) because it feels great and works wonders.
6. Yoga For The Winter Blues- Yoga for Depression
Adriene has 28 videos in a playlist called Yoga for Healing, which includes the video below and the three above. This is the playlist of hers that I use most often because there are so many great options. I definitely suffer from the winter blues, and this video is great at perking me up.
7. Quick Stress Fix- 5 Minute Sequence
This video is a fast and effective way to help get rid of stress and anxiety.
8. Yoga For Weight Loss- 40 Minute Fat Burning Yoga Workout!
Adriene has 8 videos in a playlist called Yoga For Weight Loss. This sequence is a great workout, and she also has videos that target specific parts of the body.
9. Head Stand Yoga Pose- How To Do a Headstand for Beginners
Adriene has 38 videos in a playlist named Foundations of Yoga. These videos teach how to do many different yoga poses. This headstand video is really effective in explaining how to get into the pose. Headstands look impressive, and they feel great too!
10. 30 Days of Yoga- Start Here
This is the first video in the 30 Days of Yoga Playlist. There is a new sequence to complete every day for 30 days. Everyone can participate in the 30 Days of Yoga experience, no matter what your level of experience with yoga is.
