Description

Yin Yoga has its roots in China, unlike the more popular and active yoga disciplines, which originate in India. It was founded on the Taoist theory of yin and yang – opposite concepts that, together, represent balance. Yin is stable and passive, while yang is changing and active. The yin poses, therefore, are passive and performed while seated or in a reclining position. The poses are held with the muscles fully relaxed, allowing time and gravity to deepen the stretch and target the fascia. The time spent holding these asanas is a form of meditation.

Yoga has changed in modern times to offer a more physically healthy body. But to be able to sit for long period of times in meditation, it is necessary to hold postures that open the hips and lower back. This is developed through a dedicated Yin Yoga practice. Yin poses are not new, they have been used in sports, dance, and gymnastics to increase mobility and range of motion.

Yin Yoga developed out of a need for yang practitioners (specifically Vinyasa yogis) to relax and restore after consistently practicing dynamic movement. The emphasis of finding balance between yin and yang practices is important and beneficial for the body and mind. Finding the yin in all poses becomes the goal for even the most active student and the teacher of yin can help to facilitate a deeper understanding that we can also find the yin in every aspect of our lives. Where can we relax? Where can we release? We notice the balance and patterns all around us in life, not just on the mat. Remember that wellness is the ultimate goal and balance leads to wholeness and good health.

The rating is premature but I left a positive one to start because the manual was easy to download to my phone.

Really useful information, very clearly explained. I’m a qualified yoga teacher and I had a Yin module as part of my training. I’ve purchased this as a refresher and feel that it’s meeting my needs exactly. It would be suitable for practitioners of any level though, the teacher doesn’t assume any prior knowledge.

I read over many reviews before committed and glad I did! Very calming and relaxing to learn. Easy to follow. Yin Yoga is becoming extremely appealing to me as I connect to Purpose. Thank you!
