Hey yogis, in this yin yoga class I'll take you through a sequence I've been doing a lot lately! This is great for your hips, shoulders and spine and best suited for intermediate students. Beginners can certainly do this class as well but you might want to have some extra blankets, blocks or pillows if the poses are too intense.
Two blocks are needed for this class or you can use some couch cushions or pillows. Just grab whatever you have around the house :)
We'll begin with a grounding meditation to set the tone for our practice. This is a great yin yoga class to do to alleviate stress and anxiety. It also features my cat Cleo ;) Enjoy!

What is Yin Yoga? Yin yoga is often called the Yoga of the joints because unlike other styles of yoga, the emphasis is not on the muscles but on the deep connective tissue. Connective tissue is made up of fascia, ligaments and tendons which surround and form your joints. Yin yoga improves the range of motion in your joints and also strengthens them. The results and benefits are more flexibility and greater range of motion and also more stability within your joints. Although your muscles will also be stretched, that is not the focus of the practice. It is best to practice yin yoga while your muscles are cold and NOT warmed up, even if that sounds counter intuitive. The reason we do this is so that we can send the "stress" and the "Stretch" to the connective tissues. If the muscles are warm they will steal the focus away from the joints.
There are 3 principles of Yin Yoga.
1. Find your edge
2. Be still
3. Hold the pose

I have been quietly watching and practising with you every day for 3 years now and I cannot believe the progress I have made flexibility/strength wise but also mentally. I now have a reason to exercise that is other than because I want to change something about myself or doing it out of guilt. I love the challenging classes but you've also helped me fall totally in love with yin, you deserve every success. Congrats on the million milestone. Katie X

Thank you for this practice. When you said to dedicate this to someone, I knew this was the perfect practice for today. I dedicated this to my husband. I lost him to cancer exactly two months ago today. This practice was gentle, calming, relaxing, restorative and I loved that you said at the end to recall the person you dedicated this to. Beautiful practice, beautiful sentiment. Thank you for the gift of your channel. Namaste.

@ellenled 3 жыл бұрын

Angelique, I dedicated this to my husband as well---who died from cancer 3 1/2 weeks ago. I love that you also are into self-care rather than self-pity (although I will admit to being tearful for a few minutes every day, but it's as much about gratitude as just dwelling on the loss). I've tried to participate in FB groups for widows and grief, but so many of the people there actually admit they never want to feel good or enjoy life again. It's not going to bring our husbands back to be stuck in nothing but grief forever. Would love to chat with you more.

@@ellenled Hi Ellen, I'm so sorry for your loss. It's still very raw for me. although I can go a few days without crying now, it will hit me out of nowhere and can be overwhelming (the sadness and grief). Everyone deals with grief differently, there is no wrong or right and there is no timetable but I agree that dwelling on it is not healthy. I've done yoga every day since his passing and it helps although I don't really get into the spiritual side of yoga. I've concentrated on gentle yoga which is what my body and soul need right now. I take it one day at a time.

I had a moment of anxiety and the sensation seemed to collect in my stomach which is where I usually hurt when I'm stressed. Then it all seemed to leave me and when I finished I felt renewed somehow.

Thank you for this longer Yin practice, Kassandra! I loved that it started with a more substantial meditation and the option to dedicate it to someone, not just an intention. I also loved that you had the same music in the background playing I was listening to before beginning this practice with you! Beautiful synchronicity! I left this session very relaxed and open, but found it much more difficult than any practice I’ve done with you so far. Reclined Hero/Saddle Pose was impossible for me, so I had to do the Reclined Fish Pose with Butterfly option. Also, holding Baby Dragon Pose on both sides, even with blocks for my hands, was too much of a stretch for my hip flexors. I had to stop and move back into a hamstring stretch 2-3 times on each side, pointing and flexing my extended foot instead, during those poses. This practice, to me, definitely felt more intermediate, but because we held the poses longer than in other Yin practices I’ve done with you, I felt GREAT afterward. THANK YOU! 🙏 I hope this feedback is helpful, Kassandra. Thank you for all you do for us here on KZfaq! Namaste!
