Charlotte that’s amazing! Congratulations on completing the second round of the challenge! I love to hear that you can really feel the effects of the practice in your strength and mobility. Doing a new challenge will be great for a new perspective and give you a chance to try the things you’re learning in a different format.
Thanks again for reaching out and sharing your experience of the Align with Freedom challenge. I look forward to hearing from you in the future.
Nathan Briner thank you! I’ve just completed the challenge for the second time! It’s even better the second time. I did do a few of the practices a few times when I felt there was more to be done on some things I either found challenging or profoundly awesome.
There was a comment you made in reply to someone else about persistent trouble despite really focusing on stretching a particular area - you suggested building strength there rather than just stretching, as it might be the body saying ‘this is far enough’ - that’s made a real difference for me! I’ve always had pain around the hips, and no amount of stretching eased it off. Now by focusing on building some strength by backing out of the poses a little and paying attention to the right ‘feels’, I’m much stronger and in less pain. Thank you! What’s next?
Nathan! Thank you very much!!! I learned a lot and enjoyed this challenge very much. Took much more than 30 days to complete it, because I did twice a lot of lessons and I intend to do it again. It has been a wonderful experience!
Aurora del Villar, thank you for all the energy you’ve put into completing this challenge. It sounds like you really listened to your body and really marinated on what you were learning. I hope to hear from you again on your second journey through the challenge. Let me know if I can ever help you with a pose or questions.
Joy E! Congratulations on completing the challenge! Well done :)
Did you have have any favorite moments or lessons? I am always available if you have a question or need help with a pose. I look forward to seeing what experience in round two 👍
Wow! I can't believe I completed the circle! I am going to go back and do more with this challenge and even send it to my youngest son. Nathan, thank you so much for putting together this challenge and all of your guidance and support along the way. One of my favorite things I've learned is to adjust as you get into a pose; it really helped me to try and then see what I could do. Amazing, Thank you!
Bridget!! I am so stoked for you! Congratulations on completing the challenge :) It sounds like you learned a ton and are eager to share the practice. I love what you said about the adjustments in the poses. I just finished filming a new series for Aligned and Awake with tons of tips and tools for deepening the experience in the poses. I can’t wait to share that with you.
Please stay in touch and let me know if you ever have any questions.
