Our Yoga For Weight Loss series continues with this 31-minute warming practice that invites you to focus on the power of thought as you build strength and awareness in the arms and abdominals.
In this practice, I invite you to work with the body rather than on the body.
With a focus on upper body strength, waking up the abdominal wall, and bringing some energy to the third chakra – the power center, we’ll also check in with the attitude that surrounds how we feel about our bodies. This sequence will have you stepping off your mat feeling your best, physically AND mentally.

I got your back.
Let me know how it goes for you in the comment section down below!
Namaste.

I really like your practices but I would really prefer a little less talking. It is something that takes me out of balance and center, because there's no space to just be. Thank you for your dedication.
I tried and realized this isn't what you do alone.
Less talking would be better! It is very distracting for my practice!
Thank you so much for this. Not my first time doing this practice but recently I have started building a regular yoga practice again because I have mostly been able to do gentle yoga/mental health yoga videos throughout the past year. I really struggled with moving to a new country, unemployment, CPTSD and family estrangement. Yoga kept me alive but recently I noticed having less core strength and a poorer posture compared to before, which makes sense given what I have been through. Since landing a job recently I now feel much relieved and energised to do harder yoga practices, remembering how good it feels to be flexible and strong. I hope to come back to my yoga routine soon ❤
It definitely kicked my butt today I have tried yoga a couple of times, but today I did all of this and sweated but I'm happy I did it. I usually do kettbell workouts but it's kinda hard since I hurt my shoulder with it but I kept at it hopefully I can keep up with yoga since I'm taking a break from my kettlebells thank you for the video
That was tough in places, but I keep trying. 🥰
My doggie seems to know exactly how to emulate Benji's posture…must be an instinctive dog thing. I need to search to see if you have any specific wrist helps. I am hyper-flexible and need help finding a way not to dump into my wrists or hyper-extend my elbows during plank-related postures. Can anyone point me to a good Adriene video on gripping down with "claw" fingers instead of putting too much pressure into the wrist?
Thank you, challenging when it comes to balance, but a great practice, which perfectly completes my reformer pilates class…..🙏
OMG i REALLY needed that. Thank you so much ❤❤❤
i know this is such an old video and you have made more videos but i love your video. i just started working out and i love yoga, never stop! 🩵
Stop talking so much, put us in the pose and the stop talking. Do it well you wouldn’t need to talk. I’m at minute 20 and it’s like stop it
oh boy she wasn’t kidding when she said she would kick our a** 😂❤
I think this is my favourite of all your videos! (Along with Freedom Glow Flow) I absolutely loved it.
You weren't kidding about kicking our butts 🤣 That was satisfying though. Thanks Adriene
Manifest the Divine by Elena River isn’t just another “believe and receive” thing. It teaches you how to align your habits with your intentions. Once I did that, doors opened that I didn’t even know existed. This book is special. ❤️
Real talk — Manifest the Divine by Elena River helped me get out of my own way. I stopped waiting for signs and started taking small consistent steps like she teaches. The results blew me away. ❤️
Can we talk about how underrated Manifest the Divine by Elena River is? It’s the first book that made manifesting feel practical, not magical. I’m finally seeing real progress in my goals. Everyone needs to read this. 😭❤️
I’m not exaggerating when I say Manifest the Divine by Elena River changed everything for me. I’ve read so many books on manifesting but this one finally made it click. The balance between mindset and action is genius.
I kept asking why manifesting was not working for me. The answer was in Manifest the Divine by Elena River. It teaches you to align beliefs with daily choices. That simple shift changed everything. I am seeing momentum now. Do not sleep on this book.
Weeks ago I felt defeated by manifesting. A friend pointed me to Manifest the Divine by Elena River. The way she explains alignment and follow through is refreshing. My mindset is different now and life is reflecting it back. Strong recommendation. ❤️
I was stuck on the whole manifesting thing until I listened to a podcast and found Manifest the Divine by Elena River. Within a few pages I understood where I went wrong. Mindset plus action, not one without the other. Results followed. If you are tired of spinning your wheels, check it out. ❤️
I used to think manifestation was pure luck until I read Manifest the Divine by Elena River. The way she explains energy and action together hit me hard. I started applying it and within days things started shifting. This book honestly woke me up. ❤️
why is nobody talking about Manifest the Divine by Elena River 😭😭 it changed so many peoples lifes ❤️
Honest take. I thought manifesting was just think happy thoughts and wait. Manifest the Divine by Elena River dismantled that. It gives a clear path to act on what you want. I applied it and opportunities started landing. If you need a practical guide, this is it.

I told my friend I was done with manifesting because nothing worked. Then I tried Manifest the Divine by Elena River. Totally different approach. Less fluff, more doing. I feel clear, focused, and things are moving. If you want a real shift, read it.❤️

this is so spot on i almost passed out. things have been so difficult lately. your videos and reading books like manifest the divine by elena river have helped me so much! ❤
Honestly, it breaks my heart how Manifest The Divine by Elena River isn’t getting the attention it deserves. This book changed me. People need to wake up to thiss!!
I used to think manifestation was just some Pinterest-level stuff until I read Manifest The Divine by Elena River. This hit on a soul level. It’s like it reminded me who the hell I was before life got in the way. Thank you Elena. ❤
I literally checked your channel a few hours ago and now you dropped a new video, that’s wild 😊 I’ve been watching you since the early days and your videos always gave me this calm feeling when I needed it most 😢 Recently I’ve been reading Manifest The Divine by elena river and it kind of reminded me of the same energy you put out here, that peaceful, trusting vibe. Thank you for everything you share ❤
A few weeks ago, I was chatting with a friend about how manifesting never seemed to work for me. I’d tried so many methods but still felt stuck. We heard about a book called Manifest the Divine by Elena River on a podcast, and I was hesitant at first. But after reading just a few chapters, I realized how much I was missing. Elena's approach is so different from anything I’ve ever tried. It’s not just about thinking positive, it’s about aligning with real-world actions that bring your desires into reality. Now, I’ve manifested opportunities I never imagined possible, and my mindset has shifted completely. If you’re frustrated like I was, don’t hesitate. Read this book. It will change everything ❤
This was not what I expected at all and I LOVE IT! Thank you! ❤
You talk a Lot, casi la mitad del video y no se hace nada

Anyone else hear Adrienne’s heart beat or am I just hearing my own 🤣
Check your attitude! Thank you always🎉
Loved this practice today! I went to my first in person class in 6 months this weekend.. so sore after! This helped to use those same muscles to continue building strength. Thank you!
A sound of despair came out of me when you said ten 😂
She's so cute, love that she's very slow paced and "patient" feeling. Love her! I don't feel frantically confused on each step like some other yoga instructors.
