Full body morning yin yoga stretch.

Hello yoga fam! Thank you for your patience, I'm happy to be back this week with another yin practice. Today's class is a full body yin stretch. We hold each pose for approx. 3 min. We move through, toe squat, dangling pose, child's pose and some chest and shoulder openers. This is a practice you can do first thing in the morning, as part of your morning routine or as part of your evening wind down.

Doing yin first thing in the morning is so beneficial because the body is still "cold" which allows for a tighter pull on those ligaments, which will help to increase your flexibility over time. Also, practicing yin before bed or in the evening is a great way to invite relaxation and rest. Which ever you decided, I do hope you enjoy! #yinyoga #yogastretch #yogastretch

YOU WILL NEED: NO PROPS (1 block optional)

Be sure to let me know how it went for you in the comments!

What is Yin Yoga? Yin yoga is MAGIC. Well, that is how I would describe it. Yin yoga is a practice that that allows you to go beyond the superficial layers of the body and access the deeper layers. This means in a Yin Yoga practice you are going beyond the muscles and right into the deep connective tissues of the body. Our connective tissues are made up of fascia, ligaments and tendons which surround and form our joints. Therefore, when you practice Yin Yoga you are able to increase your range of motion, your flexibility and strengthen your joints. A win win! If you ask me. Yin yoga is more than stretching, we are “stressing” the connective tissues and we do this with longer holds and intuitive breathing.

When practicing always remember

1. Meet the pose at YOUR edge (gradually)
2. Find stillness and focus on your breath
3. Resolve to be still
