Yin, Breath, Bliss

By Ally Hamilton on Oct 18, 2024

Yin Beginner

Hello friends! This is a calming, grounding yin practice with breath-work. If you're dealing with anxiety, racing thoughts, insomnia, or just generally feel like your nervous system needs a reboot, join me. This is a great evening practice, but you can use it anytime you want a deep stretch, especially for the hips and hamstrings - though the shoulders get some love here, too. Yin yoga is about long holds - really allowing the muscles, fascia and tissue around the joints to release - and when you add deep, conscious breath along with curiosity about sensation, you have something extra potent and special. 2 blocks may be very helpful. This is not a heat-building practice, so please listen to your body and don't force anything. Enjoy x

Yin for the Win

By Ally Hamilton on Jul 6, 2024

Yin Intermediate

Do you need some serious nervous system decompression and a really deep stretch? Well, look no further because that's what we're doing in this session that is all about hip, hamstring and shoulder opening along with conscious breath and moment-to-moment curiosity about sensation. You may want props - a blanket for some of the hip and hamstring opening, a strap if you want to use it for bound angle in savanna, and a couple of blocks in case you need to "lift the floor up" - but you may not need them. This is a great practice for evening, before bed, or anytime you want to get really grounded.

It's About to Get Chill

By Ally Hamilton on May 3, 2024

Yin Intermediate

Hello friends, this is an hour-long deep chill, deep stretch session for days (or evenings) when you need a nervous system reset and some serious opening. We start with grounding and alternate nostril breathing, warm up the spine, and strengthen the core just enough that we're feeling centered. Then it's all about deep breathing, deep stretching and long holds so the muscle and fascia around the joints can start to release. You can feel the layers of tension melt away as you breathe. Stay focused and curious and I guarantee you'll have a deep and meaningful practice. 2 blocks, a bolster, a blanket and a strap may come in handy or you might not need any props at all.

Yin Yoga for the Spring!

By Jamie Monte on Mar 23, 2022

Yin Beginner

Spring is a time to thrive. Yoga can help us be fully present and engaged as we shift seasons and are open to new perspectives. How we move, how we breathe, and what we eat can help us embrace this transitional time of year. This practice is about lightening up and clearing out. The liver and gallbladder are the organs that support the cleansing process. Lemon essential oil is a cleansing oil. Peak poses - Bananasana, figure 4.
