Begin with Yin: Balance Through Meditative Practice

Past event
Mar 30, 2024, 3 to 5 PM

FREE class! This isn't the leg-behind-your-head postural yoga popular on Instagram, it's a practice for everyone that can be done just about anywhere--even while working on other tasks--to help you navigate your world. First we'll learn the origins of yin, with its roots in Daoism and Traditional Chinese Medicine. Then we'll move right into trying some simple yin shapes--with options for props and differing capabilities--as we explore the theory behind the practice.

You need only a space large enough to lie down on the floor, plus anything that makes you more comfortable physically--chairs, pillows, blankets, yoga blocks, etc. Once we've reviewed the basics, we'll have the opportunity to add in extras like acupressure, hand shapes, etc., to enhance the experience. By the end of our time together you'll have a variety of techniques for balancing your hectic schedule with a do-able physical and mindfulness practice, in just a few minutes each day. Expect to be left with physical openness, mental clarity, and an overall sense of calm.
