No matter how many 'new' teachers I try, I always come back to Melissa's classes; they resonate with me perfectly !
Melissa has the gift of compassion and gentleness and the ability to impart that to anyone who does yoga with her. This practice is perfect for days when gentle self-care is needed. I normally practice at the upper intermediate levels, but this one is great for times when I can't work at my regular level. It hits all the essential spots in a gentle, slow manner with plenty of space for modifications. Just lovely. Thank you!
This comment makes me feel good when I read it! Thank you :)
I completely agree. These last few months have been hard on literally everyone. I keep coming back to this practice (and other Melissa practices) precisely because I can feel the compassion and gentleness. This practice helps me to remember to be gentle with myself and others. So incredibly valuable for that reason alone.
Just what I needed after a number of stressful days. Thank you!!!
I finished the 7-Day Challenge, and that's made me want to do every single one of Melissa's classes. So I'm starting here.
You are the greatest, Melissa! I try and do yoga several times during the week and your classes always feel good. You explain precisely so it makes doing the poses easy and your voice is gentle and sweet. Thank you!
This is just what I needed this morning to wake up my muscles and joints! Thank you, Melissa!
Loved the pace and the range of stretches. I think "morning yoga" should be added as a tag to this video as it is perfect to do straight out of bed (no need to warm up first). Thank you Melissa , another great session that I will do over and over
Melissa has a lovely voice and this is a calming practice you can do any time of the day.
You will feel relaxed afterwards. Enjoy!
Thank you everyone from Melissa! I'm so glad you are enjoying this video! It makes me feel good to have this out there and helping people. Stay tuned for more videos this year, it's my goal to film more often. xo, Melissa
Yay!!! That would be fantastic! I love your classes and they are a huge part of my regular practice. Looking forward to even more variety with your gentle, soulful instruction.
Perfect practice at the end of an emotional day. Thanks Melissa!
This was definitely one of my favorite practice Melissa! Whenever I do your lessons I feel very relaxed and refreshed!
This is a gem of a practice. Want to prepare for meditation? Check - this will engage your mind with gentle stretching and just the right amount of time in each pose. Body stiff in the early morning? Check - this will gently wake you up and stretch you out in a short practice that won’t make you late for work. Dealing with chronic body pain? Check - this is gentle on the body with lots of modifications offered and you will feel relaxed and stretched afterward. Traveling and your hotel room is small? Check - this doesn’t have a lot of side ways movements, so you only need a narrow amount of space. Personally, I’m super grateful for this practice and you will be too. Give it a try, no matter your level! Thanks Melissa and DYWM!
Thank you! This is a lovely review :) So happy you are enjoying it!
Melissa, your sweet gentle voice has been my guide for such a long time now. Thank you for continuing to put together these beautiful calming practices.
Melissa does a nice job of making you feel relaxed and guiding you through this lovely, gentle practice.
Awesome! So beautiful.
A really nice class after a stressful day at work. Calming but still enough to stretch out some tightness in hamstrings, shoulders, etc. Thanks, Melissa, for your terrific classes.
I just started and this is a great lesson. I feel myself getting off to a good start! Thanks so much for this video, it was great.
I really enjoyed this, thank you Melissa. I really enjoy your lessons.
I normally do Intermediate vinyasa style but this was the perfect "I've been knocked down by the flu and starting to feel better and need to do something" practice. Worked some stiffness out, opened my lungs and hips and now I feel I can rest comfortably. Thanks
