Yin Yoga: coming home to ourselves
starts Wednesday 22 july 2015 at 10:00
This program is taught in English.
On a physical level, this is going to be an all-around practice with postures targeting the shoulders, hips and lower back. On a more subtle level, the intention will be feeling into the body-mind and coming home to ourselves, practicing to welcome whatever thoughts, sensations and feelings arise, thereby giving ourselves an opportunity to step out of our usual patterns of judgement and resistance.
No previous yin yoga or meditation practice is necessary. Everybody is welcome.

Style: Yin Yoga
Yin yoga is a modern synthesis of Tao Yin and hatha yoga developed by Paul Grilley and Sarah Powers. In Yin yoga, floor postures are held for a long duration (3-5 minutes). On a physical level, it helps to increase the suppleness in the joints within our natural range of motion. While staying in the positions, we apply gentle pressure on the joints and relax the muscles around them. This way we affect the deep connective tissues and initiate the natural repair mechanism of the body. Energetically, Yin Yoga helps opening the body’s meridian system. It increases our vitality and harmonizes the energetic activity of the body. Go to the Yin yoga page.
