Yoga for Inner Acceptance
Beginner I
If you sometimes struggle with accepting your inner experience - such as who you are, how you feel, what you think about and what others think of you - then give this class a try. It's designed to gently shift your perspective, encouraging you to feel your body and experience your emotions in a nonjudgemental way and to awaken compassion. If you repeat it regularly, it will help you better understand yourself, and can teach you how to let go of feelings of anxiety, depression and emotional pain.

Wonderful class, David Thank you so much.
Gentle, but effective practice. I was feeling a bit anxious earlier today, but feel both physically and emotionally better after having done this practice. Thanks so much.
Amazing class - many thanks
Did this class when I was on the verge of a rare (for me) panic attack. Feeling much more grounded and don't need to take a xanax. Very grateful David.
Thank you

Which meditation would be best for sleep"?
This is a nice, gentle practice. No strain. I did it before work for a peaceful frame of mind.
just wonderful, thank you
I will be practising this regularly.
I will be revisiting this. Been dealing with challenging, hurtful colleagues and this practice was so soothing and helps me put things in proper perspective. Thank you and I am so grateful to have discovered DYWM. You guys are making such a positive impact. Namaste.
This was incredibly helpful for me right now. I'll be coming back to this often.
This is good! I usually do intermediate/advanced and I decided to do this. I am grateful. Namaste.
Hi there! I just subscribed, however all videos stall after 5 minuts playing time, and do not resume. I am streaming on WiFi. What am I doing wrong? Should I use use pc instead of iPad?
Hi there. Are video host, Vimeo, is aware that this is happening to some peoples iPads. They can help fix the issue if you send an email to support@vimeo.com and describe the version of the device you’re using, the browser you were on and what exactly is happening for you. You can email me through our contact us page and let me know how it’s going for you.
This is an amazing class, just what I needed on my journey of self-exploration and destressing. Very reassuring and empowering, yet very deeply relaxing as well. Perfect.
entered a deep state of meditation at the end of this. thank you!
David, thank you for this lovely meditation and yoga session. I suggest that you do not call this a yoga exercise but a yoga and meditation. There is only yoga up to 16 minutes, and the rest is meditation, so that´s 18 minutes straight of meditation. Call it what it is. I especially think it's inappropriate for this reason to put it in the 30-day yoga challenge. It's a yoga challenge, not a meditation challenge. In my opinion, for what it's worth.
Wow! This class was amazing. I felt so relaxed and happy. Thank you, David.
Just what i needed to start loving myself again. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
I've done this practice a few times, but yesterday was the first time it truly clicked for me. I've been feeling so much stress and self-doubt, and that guided meditation at the end melted it right out of me. So good to be reminded that everything is temporary.
just what I needed...
Thank you. Perfect for end of the day for me! Namaste.
I'm just coming back to yoga after a longgggg hiatus and this title drew me in as I've been dealing with loads of stress and anxiety that I'm having trouble with shaking off. This was exactly what I needed to start managing and releasing this anxiety and getting back into a practice. thank you thank you.
Thank you, everyone.
Thanks so much David. I stayed with your voice during shavasana and actually felt tingling, and release, in each body part when mentioned! I will revisit this lesson many, many times.
Lovely gentle class, with long shavasana. All the stress of the day melted away.
I have been out of practice and struggling to get back into my yoga and meditation practice. Thank you David for bringing me back and allowing me to remember why I love this so much.
David, what an incredible class! Thank you. It was so relaxing, a perfect Sunday evening peacefulness. I cannot say how these 30 days have helped ground me and bring me into this new year. I look forward to the last beginner class tomorrow and then moving on to the intermediate 30 days next. I want to keep the momentum going! Namaste.
Oh My David! This was AWESOME! I never lay down at the end of class as I can not get my back to relax! I always do legs up the wall, which in itself is very good. BUT I just melted into the floor! Even my tongue fell off of the roof of my mouth WITHOUT me telling it to. This was fantastic and took me right out of the bad mood I started with.
I did the first 15 minutes of this class and started it again because i felt it was custom made for my body,it felt amazing on my back ! This is a perfect Sunday morning or bedtime class.
Loving the 30 day yoga challenge. David this is your calling , you are incredibly good at what you do !
Peace

Excellent class, it helps me to recover from clinical depression without drugs or without their severe side effects...
Sweet comments. Thank you.
love love love love love love love. You're a gem!
I have been out of yoga practice for about a month, and out of my other exercise habits (running, weightlifting) for a bit longer. I have been sinking deeper into negativity. Several times I tried to get back. This practice helped me realize that my mistakes don't have to form a pattern and be in effect today. Thank you! Namaste.
A really brilliant class for when the world gets a bit wobbly, helps to put things in a better perspective. My grateful thanks,
Love this class
Wow! That was something very special. ❤️
David is very good at guiding you thru complete release to inner peace. I feel great!
This is exactly what I needed after a stressful few days. I've never been able to reach that level of calm with any yoga session.. until now. Thank you!!
Wow this class is fantastic.. It was so calming that I had I couldn't get up and restart my normal life again. And in the end, it was a totally new thought/idea/activity that gave me the energy to stand up. I wonder where this new idea will lead me.
I have had such a stressful few weeks, and this class was exactly what I needed. Thank you so much. I feel so overwhelmingly relieved.
