Weight Loss: Unwind and Detox

[Indzzgracey]

books and pillows make good substitutes for blocks..

[yamyam644]

your shorts are so cute!

[Mslector]

i dont have a yoga block and i really can buy one now.. any suggestions for subing the yoga block?

[romantismez]

Does yoga make you taller? :O

[Bnppadilla]

thanks Tara! =)

[MyeMyeSweet]

haha i dont have blocks... but i got innovative and used a bouncy ball sitting in my room.

[JulieTodaro21]

I am 14 years old, a rep volleyball player and I absolutely LOVE your videos! They keep me in shape, strong and at ease with myself! They are just great! Please continue To make them!

[bug1785]

Hello Tara, Im an Aussie gal....I am not ove weight but im def not as healthy as I want to be or would like to feel...I have never done yoga before....am I able to do this 4week challenge if I have never done it before? Thankyou :)

[DresdenEA]

How tall are you? And how long have you been doing yoga?

[LetterFromYou]

Hey, Tara! Can you please tell where did yo get that music? Maybe i could find in on youtube? it's awesome.

[minkemuis]

Hi Tara,

could you tell me another excersise I can do instead of the blocks?

xoxo

[Goody2Shoz]

What if you don't have a block?

[werwatchnu]

This just makes me too horny. I've tried to do yoga, but it's kind of embarrassing.

No disrespect ment.

[saraahkk]

is it okay to do these videos everyday?

[deathiinabox]

Nice background music.

[cutekay91]

I can't seem to squat and keep my heels on the floor. I automatically go to my tip toes. Is this due to a lack of flexibility? Can I correct this?

[91NightShade24]

I love your videos..^^v

Hope u'll do another weight loss yoga...XD

anyway, I can't do some of your moves..TTwTT

too difficult for a beginner..TTwTT

[chazequi]

i'm really sweating a lot wen i do all the 4 weeks routines..but just wanna ask, are these routines need to be done continually until you've got ur desired weight??

[akillerkidofcolor]

Is this the speed at which I should be doing the workouts in real life?

[disturbedwingz]

you are truly an inspiration! you look so happy doing what you do!

[erikagumero]

i love it ,  thanks it helps my back .

[GSMSDANCEENT]

@erikagumero i did yoga quite frequently(in a class) a while ago and a pose that really helped my back and relieved tons of tension was like laying in the child's pose but with your arms&wrists next to you, also have someone (usually teenager or partner, whoever really that is comfortable) lay on top of you back to back(spines aligning each other). it is amazing. i'm sorry i do not remember the name. (:

[lehman]

Is "twisting out toxins" metaphorical?

[TaraStilesYoga]

@lehman actually it's practical. twisting moves massages the internal organs and twists out toxins that are stored there. . . like things people eat that aren't healthy, and alcohol :)

[emililymay]

Tara, i would love to know, what got you into yoga?

[TaraStilesYoga]

@emililymay I've been into yoga since I can remember. . before I knew what it was. . I'll do a v-log on it if you like.

[GreenThumbMomma]

i love your channel ~ you even SOUND peaceful :D i'm in better shape since i began a yoga routine than i was as a teenager doing the running/aerobic routine..i'm much happier, too~! thanks~

[wishorwhim16]

I started really doing yoga last week. I've been doing the total body sweat and tone, as well as yoga for your butt, and stretching video. Last night I was doing the destress one and I actually noticed that I am already more flexible than I was before! After one week! Thank you for your videos, they are wonderful and you are gorgeous :)

[VeniceQueenxxx]

are we supposed to do this so fast?

[leonardcohenH8NGU]

@ 3:16 Tara sits like my an old Asian...Ah dang my grandma's been doing yoga this whole time and I just thought she sat funny. I kid.

Old Bill Cosby joke:

"What did God say right after creating Eve, 'Woo! Man!'"

Tara you the Woo-Man!

[a090006]

you are a great teacher!but my body allows me to do 1/3 of these excersizes!!!(hahaha just started)

[TaraStilesYoga]

just do what you can. . . :))) thanks and keep in touch!

[kennycat]

imnobarbiegirl - we can use our hand to subs...palm facing upward placing on de inner waist...with arm on the floor...hope u know wat i mean...

[gabichou26]

Oh my gosh, your voice is so relaxing. XD I'm super relaxed just from watching this. Haha, I feel so silly. I've never really liked most forms of exercise, but yoga seems amazing. I think I'm gonna try it. :) Thank you!

[aliskey62389]

I like the music..can you link that for us to download for yoga music?

[imnobarbiegirl]

Can I do the video without the blocks?

[tmblweed72157]

where can I find these kinds of yoga blocks?

[koolgal67]

hey tara, i have been doing yoga for a while, and im active, i run everyday and try to work out at least 5 days a week. But even though i have been doing yoga for more then half a year, i cant seem to get very flexible, which i need for the sports im playing. I think i have pretty good form but i still cant get the flexibility i want. Do you have any tips for me?

[tinypuppies3]

l have to get the blocks thanks for the videos :)

[dakaelo]

underground24020, i have exactly the same problem

[doubledown187]

I read somewhere that those extreme back bends are pretty hard on the spine. You know something about that?

[aydoooo]

you look good

[Antarezi]

Hey Tara, I am starting to get back into Yoga and I wanted to know if u had any nutrition/diet tips to kick start my way into being healthy again. I've recently quit smoking cigarettes and I want to detox as well, and I've heard about drinking lemon juice. I was wondering if you knew about anything else.

[TaraStilesYoga]

glad you quit smoking! I'm not big into detoxing diets and "cleanses". Try to drink a lot of water during the day, carry it with you, that sort of thing, and eat more greens and fruits and veggies. like michael pollan says, try to eat things that you can also eat the container they came in :)

[swee78]

hey tara, i notice you like whole foods a lot, have you ever shopped at trader joes? i find they are much cheaper but just as good!

[matthewlake182]

You look so healthy! You're an inspiration XD

[arabs1for1]

She has the neck of a giraffe, the legs of a deer, hair like the tail of a horse, hands long like a monkeys', if yoga does that to you then i'ma start yoging.

[tarantinie2000]

wow......

[0Gimmick]

im so gonna do this! i just started yoga but i do wana lose some lbs. guess ill go look for week one :3

[Foshowbro69]

great routines... great stuff. check out my new video...

SNL digital shorts threw it on the ground

my account is foshowbro69 thanks

[supergirlistic]

i been thinking of losing some pound thanks for the inspiriation.

[SarahsFabChannel]

I never knew that was what the block was used for! Or rather, that was one way to use it... Also, for the ppl saying yoga is too relaxing, new studies suggest that people who practice it make better decisions when it comes to eating healthy and in moderation -> leading to weight loss. Try it before you bash it people. And Tara is healthy looking.

[fate241]

wow, not evrybody has a body as skinny and flexible as hers..sheeesh

[NRen2k5]

What's with the "detox" fad anyway?

[AccountantX]

youre too thin..

[fate241]

LOL!!!!!!...I KNOW!

[RoidinRichie]

no she isn't, she's normal

[Colossus1281]

I'm going to fall asleep if I did that. No offense to you yoga enthusiasts but I just get too relaxed lol.

[TaraStilesYoga]

then take a nap!

[sevenoverthree]

Tara- I'm looking forward to doing this regiment, but I've been having some hip problems on my right side.

The long and the short of it is I have a history of L4, L5 and hip issues from being a drummer, and now it's compounded by a car accident.

Thankfully, my current yoga exercises have greatly alleviated my lower back issues, but the hip issues remain. Can you give me a little input as to how I can focus on aligning my pelvic bones?

[SpectacularDesires]

Im impressed because this actually works so well!! Cant wait for next week, thank you so much! : )

[newjohnwu3000]

what if u don't have a "block"?

[tsukinomagic]

Hi Tara! I tried your total body sweat video and I love it :) I did it 4 days though, but it was amazing. I really felt it in my legs and arms. I lost 3 lbs that week thanks to that routine! I was at a plateau and it really helped me break out of it! Thank you so so so so so much!! Cant wait to try the rest!

[DenikaandSusan]

can you do some weight loss yoga for beginners ! ? that would be great

thx so much i love the vids

[AdityaK96]

Hey Tara have you ever heard of Bikram Yoga? Its supposed to be done in a heated room so you sweat out toxins...you should really look into that.

-Aditya

[jahlove111]

i've been waiting for it <3!

do we need to warm up??

[TaraStilesYoga]

yay! try the weight loss: total body sweat and tone video first and do this routine right after. you'll be loosened enough from the first to be able to twist and relax further into this routine :) Let me know how it goes!

[KeremGo]

Please marry me...

[TaraStilesYoga]

thanks for the offer but I'm already hitched!

[KeremGo]

:((((

[SpeciationEverywhere]

Rock on - you seem like an amazing person!

[frank581949]

You are sooo pretty !!

[LukeWhitaker]

tara tara tara you rock so cool

[ToddWentworth]

dang i need to work on this some mo. i almost coughed up a rib at the 3:27 mark.

-Todd

[uicmarie]

still too intense I need something for the beginners;;; sad

[TaraStilesYoga]

which parts are too tough? the squat? you can prob do the lying on back and easy twisting sitting. very gentle. let me know what your limitations are and hopefully I can help. thanks.

[gerry2345]

Week 2... I have been so looking forward to this..... Great routine but I need more flexibility.

[TaraStilesYoga]

it's coming! stay with your breath and you'll be fine.  flexibility routines on the way too :)

[JJuciJ]

Hi Tara...love you vids...I do dancing (mostly caribbean folk), i would like to know what yoga routine i can do before dancing and after...thanks much for your response :)
