Yin Yoga is a beautiful system of yoga practice and a great complement to a Yang lifestyle!

 

Yin yoga can be described as a stabilizing, de-stressing, feminine and contemplative practice. This practice is also known as yin yoga and is based on the Taoist concepts of balancing the Yin and the Yang, the opposite and complementary principles in nature. Yin yoga postures allow deeper tissues such as connective and fascia to release long-held tensions, allowing the Prana/life force to flow more easily through previously blocked areas, increasing overall energy and well-being. It can help us slow down, nourish and heal us emotionally and energetically, and create more mobility and resilience in our bodies and lives.
