Leave a Review Yoga Wake Up Morning Routine
Fantastic Way to Start the Day!
I’m so thrilled to have found this app. I’ve been using it for a couple of weeks and and it’s made such a positive difference in the way I face the day.
I actually look forward to waking up EARLY every day. It’s amazing how taking a little time and doing something positive can change my outlook. In these times, that positive energy is absolutely needed.
Thanks for a great app! Namaste 🙏🏻Show less19951997967
My Mornings are so much better!
I’ve struggled with my screen time ever since I got a phone and have found this app helps me wake up and meditate rather than reach straight for my phone! I really recommend it for anyone as it has helped me be a more positive person overall. The way you start your day makes all the difference and I think more people would be happy if they started their day out with guided breathing and a little movementShow lessDogemom17
Waking Up & Staying Wake Just Got So Much Easier
I used to hit snooze a ridiculous amount of times. Or sometimes not even hear my alarm clock. Both of these drove my husband nuts. Now I wake up IMMEDIATELY and am EXCITED to start the day after using this program. I do choose to pause the recording as soon as I hear the voice start speaking, and then put on my headphones—since my husband sleeps in later. But that’s a very small price to pay for starting my day the way I always wanted to.Show lessMyElizabeth9

Hi MyElizabeth9! Thank you so much for this wonderful review. We're so glad to hear that Yoga Wake Up has helped you (and your husband) enjoy early mornings, and as a small business, we really appreciate you taking the time to share your experience with our community.Nightly set up isn’t convenient
When I downloaded the app, it said I have to open the app every single night and start my sleep time so it can wake me up. I did that and this morning, it notified me that I had an alarm set, but I didn’t leave the app open. It then didn’t even give me the option of hearing the alarm if I opened the app manually, following the notification. My only option is to try again tomorrow, but I doubt there will be a tomorrow. The app should just go off after an alarm is programmed, like every other app. This process is more stressful than waking up to a regular alarm.Show lessLnperez83
Exactly what I needed
I have tried so many kinds of alarms over the years: beeping, ringing, music-playing. I always wanted an alarm that would talk to me to get me to wake up. Radio alarms didn’t cut it because I’d sleep through those, and podcast alarms didn’t become available until recently. Then came yoga wake up.
The combination of moving my body and having someone speak to me makes me less likely to try to go back to sleep (though I do admit to still doing this sometimes). I can change up the recordings so that I never get bored or tune out the alarm.
I wish that you could set alarms that included the afternoon and evening routines. I just figured out so I can set an evening alarm to trigger my bedtime routine, but I can’t choose any sessions other than the ones intended for the morning. I know it’s called Yoga Wake Up, but if there are already recordings for different portions of the day, I don’t see why they couldn’t also be alarm options.
I also wish that there was greater racial diversity among the instructors in the app. There are very few people of color.Show lessMelloMaia

Hello MelloMaia, Thank you for your awesome feedback. Yes, there are limitations as to what we can do as an alarm clock app and we’re always trying to improve. We are also actively adding more teachers of color to the app, as we are committed to making Yoga Wake Up a platform that is representative of us all. If you have recommendations for teachers, please let us know. If you would like to discuss this and other ideas with us directly, please email us at team@yogawakeup.com and we'll respond ASAP. Thanks again for your feedback!An amazing addition to my morning routine
I absolutely love this app. It gets my day started off on the right foot and has helped me break my habit of looking at my phone immediately when I wake up. A goal of mine has been to practice mindfulness and gratitude every day and this app has made it so easy for me to do that.
One feature I would like to have added is the ability to add friends! My mom uses the app and we would love to be able to see each other’s progress and practices we have been doing.
Truly a life changing app for me. Thank you!!Show lessCourtiachip

Hi Courtiachip! Thank you for sharing with our community! We’re always looking for new ways to improve the app and will definitely take your suggestion into consideration. If you would like to discuss this and other ideas with us directly, please email us at team@yogawakeup.com.Amazing way to wake up, game changer!
I’ve been using the app on and off for several months now and finally just jumped back on board. My mornings feel SO much better when I start my day with this app. So happy to be back on. It brings me into my body and breath, and helps me to keep my morning sacred before checking my phone or letting the rest of the world fill my head with info. The music, the teachers, and the design are awesome. Customer service has been excellent too when I had questions about using it as an alarm (you can hit play on a sequence when you’re ready or set your alarm with it which is the best!). Thank you!Show lessAarona8176
Almost love it but few tech fails
This is life changing app for me but I’ve never got the wake up alarm to work consistently. Also lacks a pause and rewind button which is really frustrating when you get interrupted and need to reset
Maybe I haven’t updated but there’s not a lot of fresh sessions being added?nnnnniiicccc

As for adding, we are actually recording new content today which will be up next week (we usually do this every month). We look forward to hearing from you so we can resolve your issue!A life changing app!!
This review is a long time coming. I’m not only just a user of this app but dear friends with the founders. Their dedication to this company and their teachers is truly one of a kind. They put so much thought and care into the content they put on the app!! They are honest and down to earth people that just want to see everyone around them happy and living a fulfilled in life.
For me, a tool that replaces your morning alarm clock with mindfulness and intention is a no brainer! Especially these days with so much research showing the first few minutes of how we start our day is imperative to a healthy mindset!! Highly recommend! I’m obsessed!Show lessQueen Nixie
Beautiful Mornings
I have only tried some wake up in bed yoga and a meditation on here, but I can tell that the teachers are sincere, peaceful, and well practiced. I had a question for customer service, and Joaquin went way out of his way to help me. Just beautiful people and beautiful practices. I am slowly opening up to new ways of thought. Please, be patient with yourself and give this app the attention and chance that it deserves. Namaste.Show lessdropofsun
