Yin Yoga

Yin Yoga

75 min class (60 min of asana practice and 15 min of guided deep relaxation meditation) is the opposite of Vinyasa yoga (a yang or energetic practice) Yin is a restorative practice where we slow everything way down in an effort to find solace and peace in the mind and return to our natural state of being. In this natural state of being the body opens up the meridians or energy channels within the body clearing away old emotions, toxins or build up that are currently blocking the flow of chi or prana (the bodies vital life force). In this practice we tend to have long holds in a pose (sometimes up to 5 minutes) this gives time for the body to relax the muscle tissue providing the opportunity to bring the stretch into the connective tissue. We will end the practice with a 15 min guided, deep relaxation savasana.

How to Prepare for a Yoga Class

​1) Bring an open mind!

2) Leave all of your expectations at the door!

3) Always bring an intention to class.  Some suggestions may be, "I intend to be more loving or compassionate to myself and others," "I intend to heal my body and clear out all negativity and toxins bringing in renewal and fresh prana," "I intend to empty my vessel of all that is inauthentic in an attempt to rediscover my true self," or "I intend to create strength that I may need to grow, overcome obstacles in my path and stay on track,"

4) Dress comfortably
​
5) Bring your mat (if you don’t have one don’t worry you can borrow one of ours for $1)
