A beautiful slower practice that involves holding poses, mostly seated, for longer periods of time. Poses are generally held for up to 3-5 minutes with a focus on the connective tissues and the joints. The main physical benefits of yin yoga are the hydration of the connective tissues and the increased blood flow in the joints. We tap into our parasympathetic nervous system so we can relax and allow our body to do its natural magic restoring and nourishing our tissues and systems.  It is a perfect complimentary practice to athletics, active styles of yoga and the challenges of living in the world.  The stillness of Yin Yoga takes us deeper into our observing nature where we learn to find acceptance, compassion and to be present in the moment.

Buddhist story . . . “The Buddha was asked ‘ Buddhist story . . . 

“The Buddha was asked ‘What do you and your disciples practice?’ And he replied ‘We sit, we walk, and we eat’. The questioner continued ‘But sir, everyone sits, walks and eats’. The Buddha told him: ‘When we sit, we know we are sitting.  When we walk, we know we are walking.  When we eat, we know we are eating’”.

Be awake to what is around you, moment by moment . . .

There is no coincidence that I was drawn to Yin Yo There is no coincidence that I was drawn to Yin Yoga as this style of yoga has much in common with meditation and mindfulness practices. This practice teaches you how to get intimate with the self and focus on the present moment, allowing thoughts, feelings, sensations and emotions to arise but practicing the art of sitting with them and watching them without getting “involved in the story” before letting them fade away. The “mind chatter” is lessened and the “volume” turned down on persistent thought patterns. You are able to develop mindfulness skills that can be transferred from the mat to everyday life. On a mental and emotional level, the practice allows the body to drop down into the parasympathetic nervous system, and therefore becomes deeply healing and nourishing.

Within each of us there is a silence — a silence Within each of us there is a silence
— a silence as vast as a universe.
We are afraid of it…and we long for it.
When we experience that silence, we remember
who we are: creatures of the stars, created
from the cooling of this planet, created
from dust and gas, created
from the elements, created
from time and space…created
from silence.
In our present culture,
silence is something like an endangered species…
an endangered fundamental.
The experience of silence is now so rare
that we must cultivate it and treasure it.
This is especially true for shared silence.
Sharing silence is, in fact, a political act.
When we can stand aside from the usual and
perceive the fundamental, change begins to happen.
Our lives align with deeper values
and the lives of others are touched and influenced.
Silence brings us back to basics, to our senses,
to our selves. It locates us. Without that return
we can go so far away from our true natures
that we end up, quite literally, beside ourselves.
We live blindly and act thoughtlessly.
We endanger the delicate balance which sustains
our lives, our communities, and our planet.
Each of us can make a difference.
Politicians and visionaries will not return us
to the sacredness of life.
That will be done by ordinary men and women
who together or alone can say,
"Remember to breathe, remember to feel,
remember to care,
let us do this for our children and ourselves
and our children's children.
Let us practice for life's sake." 💖
