Yin Yoga is a meditative approach to yoga, emphasising passive stretching and aiming to cultivate a deeper internal awareness. Unlike dynamic yoga, which focus on muscle engagement and an energetic flow, Yin Yoga targets the deep connective tissues of the body such as the ligaments, joints, bones, and fascial networks. By holding poses for extended periods, typically between three to six minutes, practitioners are encouraged to tune into their bodies, fostering a state of mindful stillness.
