A Restorative Afternoon of Yin Yoga
The next restorative workshop … tbc
Join me for an afternoon of Yin yoga , Ribbon Breathing and Yoga Nidra meditation at the Guernsey Yacht Club
All ages and levels of ability are welcome with no yoga experience essential. So long as you are happy to practice on your yoga mat as all poses are floor work. A chair can be used as a prop for some poses.
You will need to bring with a hand towel, blankets, bolster, blocks and cushions and maybe even a couple of pillows.
WHAT TO EXPECT
We will start the class with a short yoga flow to get the energy flowing, followed by Yin Yoga. This type of yoga offers long slow deeply held poses supported with props such as blocks, cushions and bolsters. This allows you to release deeply held tension that we hang onto, causing stress in the body and ultimately can cause illness.
We are creating space in the joints, with a very gentle pressure or tugging stimulates the circulation, which in turn encourages healing in the connective tissues which are surrounding them.
The therapeutic benefits have been shown to help increase good cholesterol lower blood pressure, relieve stress, and tension with benefits for mental health and many other conditions including easing of chronic pain.
Introducing the ribbon breathing technique.
30 mins of yoga Nidra
Tea and cake to finish the afternoon.
THIS COURSE CAN BE STREAMED ON ZOOM IF ANYONE WOULD LIKE TO JOIN IF THEY ARE OVERSEAS, ISOLATING OR WOULD JUST PREFER TO BE AT HOME.

🌸 Enjoy an afternoon of restorative, Yin yoga. Create some space and peace, we will set the scene with some aromatherapy oils in a diffuser or some candles and relaxing music.
🌸 For some people it has been a strange time of new responsibilities with home schooling, preparing meals three times a day. Not to mention negotiating trips to the supermarket for yourself or maybe others. Perhaps living with loved ones 24/7 but crave a bit of space. All this alongside working from home.
🌸 All of this can be a lot.
