Working seasonally with the five element path. Yin Yoga postures are held for longer (up to 3 -5 mins) with emphasis on connective tissues rather than muscles.
When holding the posture for longer we work on the deep tissues/fascia allowing energy to be freed up in the body. Mainly floor based postures are used in this style of Yoga. Yin Yoga is for you if you are
- Tired
- Over-stimulated
- Anxious
- When your energy is too erratic
- Your mind is overactive
Whether you are craving for more energy or you feel you have too much of it, Yin yoga will benefit you.
We tend to live in a busy world on computers/phones/laptops etc, The mind gets used to that amount of information and starts to crave stimuli if it gets quiet. So you end up browsing, looking for stuff, it doesn’t matter what as long as you fill the gaps. Gaps we really should allow to stay empty to find some sort of down time – for the mind to stop and for you to just be. So give yourself a couple of hours to just ‘be’ in the body…
The perfect to end our Yin Yoga is with a Gong Bath. We have prepped the body and we are ready to receive the sounds and vibrations.
As everything is vibrating so are we, sometimes we can become out of tune in either mind body or spirit and dis-ease can start to take hold. Through the healing frequencies of sound therapy our bodies can be brought back in tune and we can begin to feel healthy and balanced once more.
