Benefits of Yin Yoga

By letting your breath flow naturally and freely, you'll feel an effective stretch in the deeper layers of your body, particularly the fascia and the connective tissue.

This practice stretches muscles, ligaments, and tendons thoroughly, resulting in greater freedom of movement, increased suppleness in the joints, and an overall softer and more flexible body.

Yin Yoga is an essential practice for relieving underlying tension and balancing stress. The consistent rounding of the back in many Yin Yoga exercises can be particularly beneficial for alleviating back pain.

How Yin Yoga Can Help You!

Psychologically, holding postures for extended periods deepens self-awareness, fostering self-acceptance and inner peace as you learn to respect your body and accept feelings as they arise.

For 60 minutes, you will have the opportunity to let go of any pressure, free your mind, and let your thoughts wander. Simply be in the moment. After my Yin Yoga session, you will experience profound relaxation, bliss, and inner peace.

  • Can I Attend a Class If I’ve Never Done Yoga Before?
    I have never done yoga before and I haven’t exercised for many years. Can I still participate in the classes? I would advise you to check with your health professional before you start to exercise. I will also ask you to disclose any health conditions that you may have. This information will allow me to be aware of any difficulties that you may have and enable them to adapt the exercises to suit you. All of my classes are mixed ability so there will be women and men who have practiced yoga for many years and others who are new to it. I am able to demonstrate ways that poses can be altered to suit you. I also support a non judgemental approach to yoga so no one will make you feel uncomfortable. I provide a safe space for you to practice.
  • What Type Of Mat ?
    A yoga mat is the most important accessory that you will need. It is important that you ensure that you purchase a yoga mat, not an exercise mat. An exercise mat is usually thicker. Whilst you may think this will be more comfortable and generally cheaper, for the purpose of yoga it may make your practice more difficult. If the mat is too spongy it will have an affect on your balance and posture. Therefore, the thinner yoga mat, and one that sticks to the floor will aid your practice. Some mats have markings on them and this serves as a guide for positioning your hands and feet.
  • What do I wear?
    The simple answer is anything that makes you feel comfortable. I suggest leggings and t-shirt. It’s useful to have a pair of socks and a warm top to put on for the relaxation element of the class.
  • Can I book a private class?
    A Personal Touch….. I also offer one to one classes, both on line or in the comfort of your own home. I also offer a Covid secure private studio. Situated at the bottom of my garden. A peaceful, uninterrupted, tranquil space. Please contact me for more details lisa@happymatyoga.co.uk 07568 374132 xx
