An introduction to Yin YogaYin Yoga is a modern expression of ancient wisdom, rooted in Taoist philosophy, Traditional Chinese Medicine, and long held traditions that honoured stillness as a pathway to balance. Over the years Yin Yoga has become a physical practice, and a deeply contemplative that supports emotional awareness, nervous system regulation and energetic balance.
Yin represents qualities such as stillness, softness, receptivity, darkness, coolness, rest and introspection. Yang represents movement, activity, warmth, light, effort and expression - both are essential, one cannot exist without the other. Yin and Yang are not fixed states, they are always changing.
In modern day life, we are predominately living in Yang, we are rewarded for productivity, achievement and constant motion. Yin practices such as rest, stillness and introspection are often undervalued, even though they are essential for balance.
Yin offers a conscious return, through long, passive postures and holds that bring awareness to the body and mind.
