Yin Yoga for Better Sleep



This is a 40 minute, beginners Yin Yoga class, designed to relax and soothe the nervous system, preparing the body and mind for a restful sleep.

This Yin class takes a more restorative approach, which means you will need a few props:
- a couple of pillows from your bed (or bolster if you prefer)
- a couple of yoga blocks or old sturdy books will work

In Yin we do hold the poses a bit longer than in other styles of yoga. In this class we'll be holding the poses for about 3 minutes each.

As always, yoga might be challenging, but it should never be painful, so if you do feel any pain, feel slowly come out of the pose, or adjust the pose to remove the discomfort. During this class I will give lots of different options for the poses. So feel free to try them out and see which is best for you.

I post a weekly yoga class on my YouTube channel - subscribe if you would like to be updated each week.
