*Pre-booking this Series is required. This is a Closed Course*
Yin is the cool, lunar, passive aspect of the Yoga asana (posture) practice. The asanas are held longer. It opens the deeper connective tissues versus the muscles and allows practitioners to experience greater range of motion, flexibility, and somatic awareness. Yin is based on ancient Chinese philosophies and Taoist principles which believe there are pathways of Qi (energy) that run through our bodies. By stretching and deepening into poses, we’re opening up any blockages and releasing that energy to flow freely.

The slower practice of Yin yoga brings the perfect setting to reconnect to oneself, and explore somatic resources to support emotional wellbeing. Beyond the physical and energetic benefit of the practice, each week we will explore different ways to resource yourself and regulate your nervous system. You’ll expand your inner sense of safety, alignment and groundedness. You’ll learn what works for you when you feel out of balance. It's an amazing practice when you struggle with anxiety, frustration, sadness, anger or you find it hard to slow down. The Yin practice will be supported by journaling prompts to guide you in implementing these tools into your life, and in experiencing a deeper level of connection to yourself and others.
