@annelise-2 thank you for sharing this

@lovey-5 Just share the event link : https://myyogateacher.com/group-classes/neck-and-shoulder-relief-a-gentle-yoga-reset - once your friend has the account she should be able to register and join - without being a member or having an active trial…Let me know if they are not able to and what happens when they access this link?

@tch-anneliese-1 I would like to join the gardening chat as well. When I click on your link it just goes to the the webpage. When I type " Greenthumbs" or “Greenthumbs and ,unfiltered beauty” in the chat search bar nothing at all comes up in either " chat" or " communities" I did check whether the search bar is working haha and it is !

Kanupriya: I agree with all that you said, except “age is just a number.” Clearly, you are still young! I was always active, vibrant, positive, and hopeful until age descended upon me, (in my 60’s) and my body rebelled against many previous activities. Now, at nearly 77, I have many aches and pains that have come from aging, and I don’t have the positivity I had in my youth. It takes work, focus and mindfulness to reach contentment these days. Thankfully, I have yoga to carry me through that process, while I continue to navigate unexpected aches and pains.

When I was doing my TTC last year, my teacher would often say - “The yoga pose you avoid the most is the one you need the most.” This quote kept me motivated and going through the TTC and inspires me to this day as well. What yoga quote deeply resonates with you and why? Share it below and let’s inspire each other with the wisdom of the practice! @aarti-73 @ambujam-1 @barbara-130 @tch-brijesh-1 @barkha-19 @chene-1 @chenthil-1 @dharminder-3 @diksha-21 @ekta-103 @emma-81 @grace-137 @goutham-7 @hector-12 @haritha-77 @inju-1 @isheta-1 @jennifer-708 @jackie-18 @kp-9 @kathleen-1 @kanupriya-3 @lata-52 @maria-5 @np-2 @nisha-8 @pinane-1 @pradeep-62 @raman-42 @rashmi-46 @renita-8 @sarita-53 @sanchita-13 @sahitya-14 @tavaria-1 @tch-umesh-2 @vinay-32 @vedant-206 @ximena-12 @yuseli-1 @ziaudeen-1

@julie-548 Hey Julie, I would love to host you in Bengaluru and show you a few places of interest of yoga and spirituality.

@roland-6 Only relaxing chanting, pranayama and meditation in meditation pose or supine pose before bedtime. No need for dynamic or asanas.

@angela-242 thanks for highlighting this issue, we have released the fix for this issue.

@angela-242 Thank you for your feedback. We would add more classes for Iyengar yoga soon

@twinkle-1 It’s different for everyone in my view

@gail-40 Meenu is still active on the platform… She will be back posy July 15th…

@trisha-58 are you all set? Ask Ananya or Ani and they will set you up!

@gopal-19 Thank you.

@rahul-277 Great question - my logic answer to your question https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hNutcniVegs

First of all, thank you for sharing this so honestly — what you’re experiencing is very normal, and you’re definitely not “out of shape.” Let me gently clear the confusion. About the numbers you see online…… There is no single “correct” number of Sun Salutations for everyone. Practices like 108 rounds are ritualistic and advanced, usually done on special occasions by seasoned practitioners. They are not a starting point and not a daily benchmark. Is 5 rounds enough? Absolutely yes. For a beginner, 3–6 slow, mindful rounds done with good breathing and alignment are far more beneficial than forcing higher numbers. Shaking arms simply mean your muscles are waking up and learning to support your body weight — that’s progress, not failure. How many should a beginner do? Start with 4–6 rounds at a comfortable pace Focus on breath, form, and smooth transitions Rest whenever you need — pausing is part of the practice Should you increase every day? No need to rush. Stay with the same number for 1–2 weeks, and only increase when your body feels ready. Even adding one extra round is enough progression. Will you still get benefits with fewer rounds? Yes — you’ll build strength, flexibility, circulation, and mental clarity even with a small number, as long as you’re consistent and attentive. Yoga is not about exhaustion; it’s about intelligent effort. A gentle suggestion…. Some days your body may want fewer rounds, and that’s okay. Yoga is about listening, not pushing. You’re doing beautifully by simply showing up each morning. Consistency and kindness toward your body matter far more than numbers.

Yes I would have loved to go as well but too far for me

IS there a way to get recordings for these classes?

Yoga is not just exercise but a way of life. So, I believe the answer would be Yoga. In fact, Hatha Yoga also emphasizes diet — what to eat and how to eat — as an essential part of the practice.
