Virtual: January Yoga- Yin Online
The purpose of Yin yoga is to restore the bodies’ ability to move with fluidity. This in turn develops the flow of ‘chi’, the Chinese medicine practice based on the meridian centers in the body to allow life force energy to flow freely. Each posture creates a compression or a friction with the connective tissues, causing blood to rush to these areas, to rehydrate the tissues. A yin practice consists of 4 to 6 postures that are held for an extended time to activate this release of fluid. Yin yoga is traditionally practiced in silence to meditate through postures, making it a mindful practice as well as a continuous surrender into the uncomfortable.
Yin yoga requires the use of some props to be able to do the postures properly. Feel free to improvise if needed. Yoga blocks (2) or books, blanket and bolster (or sofa or chair cushion).
