Yin Yoga & Nidra on Zoom

Description

Deep, yet gentle and slow practice to de-stress and relax whilst helping to therapeutically align the body and relieve stiffness, aches and pains and thus freeing up energy. Long, softly held floor postures targeting connective tissue and the parasympathetic nervous system. A wonderful monthly wind-down — offered on the last Thursday of each month on Zoom. Nourish the nervous system, release tension, relax and restore. Yin Yoga poses are held passively, in meditation for up to 6 minutes working into deeper connective tissues. Students find its depth quite surprising. Helps with flexibility, de-stressing, undoes the day from the body and mind. Totally soul soothing! The essence of Yin Yoga is surrender. Yin focuses on postures that lengthen the muscles surrounding the hips, pelvis, and lower back. We hold the postures in order to lengthen the connective tissue that surrounds the joints and increase its elasticity. The elasticity of our connective tissue diminishes with physical activity and aging, which makes Yin essential for injury prevention and joint health. Since a Yin Yoga practice often includes several long, seated forward bending postures, it also restores energy and calms the nervous system. Pure bliss! Suitable for those that attend any of the Vernyoga classes and open to anyone that has filled the online health form.
