With yoga\u2019s holistic approach to wellbeing, it can be an effective way to practice self-care for better physical and mental health.<\/p>\n<p>But with so many yoga styles and teachers to choose from, finding a practice that truly clicks can be tough.<\/p>\n<p>For me, Adriene Mishler, better known online as <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.fitandwell.com\/tag\/yoga-with-adriene\" data-auto-tag-linker=\"true\" data-before-rewrite-localise=\"https:\/\/www.fitandwell.com\/tag\/yoga-with-adriene\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Yoga With Adriene<\/a>, is the yoga instructor I return to time and again. Her no-fuss, gently guided practices with her mantra, \u201cFind what feels good\u201d, makes practising simple, accessible and enjoyable.<\/p>\n<p>You may like<\/p>\n<p>Mishler recently released a 20-minute video titled \u201cTrust The Process\u201d, and I was instantly intrigued.<\/p>\n<p>I wasn\u2019t sure what to expect, but given I always enjoy her routines, I decided to do as the title suggested, and trust the process by giving it a go.<\/p>\n<p>What I thought of Yoga With Adriene\u2019s recent routine<\/p>\n<p>Most of Mishler\u2019s routines are equipment-free, although she recommends using a block or blanket if you have one. My yoga block helps me deepen stretches in certain positions and feel more supported in others.<\/p>\n<p>I found it useful for the hamstring stretch and bridge pose, but you can absolutely do the routine without one.<\/p>\n<p class=\"newsletter-form__strapline\">Start your week with achievable workout ideas, health tips and wellbeing advice in your inbox.<\/p>\n<p>The session starts with five minutes of light, guided meditation, with simple cues around noticing how you feel\u2014nothing pretentious. This gently helped me relax and settle into the practice.<\/p>\n<p>The next 10 minutes moved through postures that stretched muscles and eased joints like puppy pose, cat-cow and low lunge.<\/p>\n<p>There were a couple of strength-based poses in there too, like a short plank hold and bridge pose, which offered a welcome\u2014but not intense\u2014challenge in an otherwise relaxing class.<\/p>\n<p>These stronger poses felt like gentle reminders to \u201ctrust the process\u201d and reconnect with my body\u2019s strength without it being a strength-building goal.<\/p>\n<p>The practice closed with a short meditation and some final thoughts from Mishler about what it means to trust the process, which added to my sense of calm.<\/p>\n<p>This is one of my favorite yoga practices I\u2019ve done in a while and I&#8217;ll definitely be returning to it, especially on days when I\u2019m feeling overwhelmed and need a slower routine to help calm my mind, and soothe muscles and joints. <\/p>\n<p>Mishler\u2019s words and authentic delivery really stuck with me and I now find it easier to switch off during gentle movement like this, rather than trying to connect to my body during stillness in seated meditation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Yoga is one of the best ways to support your joints, improve your flexibility and calm a racing&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":265754,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4322],"tags":[1630,105,16,15],"class_list":{"0":"post-265753","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-fitness","8":"tag-fitness","9":"tag-health","10":"tag-uk","11":"tag-united-kingdom"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/114854847133312633","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/265753","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=265753"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/265753\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/265754"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=265753"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=265753"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=265753"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
