Unwind from the week and relax into the weekend. Yin Yoga explores poses for longer periods of time in order to let go of tensions stored in the body and to calm the nervous system to target deeper connective tissues especially around the hips, pelvis and lower spine. Infused in the longer, more passive holds is a meditative awareness of breath, mindfulness, and capturing that mellow presence. I will use props such as blocks, blankets and a bolster but they aren’t required. Other suggestions if you don’t have those exact items are thick books, pillows and couch cushions.
