Do you feel a little overwhelmed and busy in the mind? sometimes I feel we are balancing so many tasks and plates in the air, and there comes a point where we can feel a little jumbled up and deflated. Is this sounding familiar?
This 1hr Yin practice centres on quietening the busy nature of the mind. Yoga is wonderful like that, it can create clarity and space inside, and prepare you, reset you for the days and the week ahead. Yin is particularly good at this as it involves long deep holds, giving time for heaviness to lift and clarity/calm and peacefulness to be invited back in.
Whilst on the subject of a calm mind, let’s touch upon the word ‘meditation’ as it’s a highly loaded word and concept in my experience. I prefer to use the word ‘mindful’ which is much more accessible and achievable, and brings a plethora of benefits for mind and body together. What’s not to like huh!?
Mindfulness is what we are aiming for in this 1hr Yin practice…
– We are moving mindfully with our body into different Yin yoga poses.
– We are moving mindfully with our transitions between poses.
– We are mindfully observing what comes up in the mind chatter, and continually coming back to body, breath, energy and each moment as it arises.
You’ll find as you continue into the practice the mind quietens naturally, and becomes less distracted by outside influences and internal cessations.
