The Breath Reflects and Affects How We Feel- 6 Class Yin Yoga & Meditation Series
Support for Your Home Practice & Beyond
The Breath Reflects and Affects How We Feel Six-Class Series
Experience this unique combination of mindful Yin Yoga, breathwork, and Yoga Nidra deep relaxation techniques as a pathway to unwinding tensions in the body, mind, and heart while you exercise and care for the yin tissues so critical to your body’s flexibility and mobility.
If we change the way we breathe, we can change the way we feel.
In Yin, we go in…to soften, feel, and listen to what’s happening inside of us. Paired with your compassionate awareness, Sagel will guide you to explore the powerful ways the breath both reflects and affects how we feel. The breath, our constant companion, can be a source of inner wisdom and a tool to help us feel better and stay more fully present on our mat and in daily life.
This is a non-heated, non-flow streaming series that focuses on the body’s deep connective tissues of the hips, pelvis, spine, and legs as well as the upper body. Most exercises like vinyasa yoga, running, cycling, and weight training focus primarily on the musculature, making this practice an important complement to other exercise routines. Using stillness and passive, longer holds of typically 3-5min each in floor poses, Yin Yoga can help to re-strengthen, re-hydrate, and re-lengthen these critical soft tissues, including the body’s fascial network.
Classes are 60-90min in length and include a variety of postures, variations, and modifications to help you meet and honor your body’s individual needs. No experience is necessary, all levels of students are welcome.
For your practice, you’ll need comfortable clothing, a yoga mat, a yoga strap (or a cotton belt from home), 1-2 blankets, 2-3 yoga blocks (or books from home), and a yoga bolster (or 1-2 firm pillows from home).
Register today and enjoy ongoing online access to this six-class program on this platform, as well as weekly YINspirations and guidance for bringing these techniques and benefits into your day.
All that we cultivate on the mat we carry with us into our days and can use to help us live more peacefully, happily, and freely in each precious moment.
