Yin Yoga

The practice of Yin Yoga focuses on stimulating the energy channels in the body that reside throughout the deep connective tissue. It is known to rehabilitate the joints and increase mobility, bathing our body with vital energy and leaving us enlivened and relaxed. Much of a Yin practice is done close to the floor, staying in postures for extended periods of time. It has to do with creating stillness in the body and mind and relaxing the muscles. This quieting of our mind allows us to connect to the rich currents within ourselves and to tap into a greater source of energy that is all around & inside us.

Some of the benefits of Yin yoga are:

Calm and balance the mind & body
Increased mobility in the body, especially the joints & hips
Deep relaxation & lowering of stress levels
Increased lubrication & protection of joints
More flexibility in joints & connective tissue
Release of fascia throughout the body
A better ability to cope with anxiety & stress
Helps to create a conducive state for meditation
