Yin Yoga + The Five Elements of Spirit with Josh Summers
What if your practice could awaken the deepest layers of body, heart, and spirit—bringing you. into harmony with the natural rhythms of life?
In Chinese Medicine, the Five Elements—Water, Wood, Fire, Earth, and Metal—offer a timeless map of health and wholeness. Each element reflects not just physical processes, but also the emotional and spiritual qualities that shape the way we live, love, and connect.
In this immersive workshop, Josh will guide you through the ways Yin Yoga can balance and harmonize these elemental forces. Through posture, breath, and mindful attention, you’ll explore creative pathways to:
● Water – flow and adapt when change is inevitable
●. Wood – root and grow toward new possibilities
● Fire – ignite inspiration and expand into joy
● Earth – ground and nourish yourself when you feel depleted
● Metal – release and let go when life calls for clarity and renewal
Rather than imposing effort, Yin Yoga invites us to soften into stillness. By holding floor postures for several minutes, you’ll gently stress and hydrate connective tissues, restore natural mobility in the joints, and open the subtle channels of energy that support emotional balance. The
practice is quiet, meditative, and deeply restorative—an ideal complement to more dynamic forms of yoga.
Whether you are new to Yin or a seasoned practitioner, this workshop offers a chance to experience how the Five Elements can illuminate your practice and enliven your spirit.
