Yin and Sound Journey with Kate Cohen

  • Lane Yoga Edinburgh (map)

After a winter rest, the power of springtime surges through nature - and through us. ... In spring, those aspects of us that have been dormant over the winter months begin to awaken. Just as nature enters a cycle of renewal, growth and expansion—so does the energy within us.

By bringing new energy into the light we can let go and detox ourselves from all that no longer serves us.In Traditional Chinese Medicine, each season corresponds to different organs and their meridians — the subtle energy channels that allow the flow of our chi. We'll be working with liver and gall bladder meridians that are connected to the season of spring.

This seasonal yin practice will take you through a selection of mat-based poses that will help to stimulate these meridians. Working with the breath and finding mild discomfort in each pose and remaining still for anywhere between 3-7 mins we will stimulate that energy flow through the body, release physical tension in our connective tissues and activate our parasympathetic nervous system. Yin Yoga is a very mindful and meditative practice and no previous experience is necessary. 

After practice we will move into an hr of sound to allow our intentions to sink in and to remove any energy blocks from our system, and simply restore and relax.

IMPORTANT

Please bring comfortable clothing ( layers, socks, hoodies etc) as the body temperature will drop with this steady practice where we stay close to the ground. Feel free to bring your favourite blanket or a small cushion, eye pillow or anything else that will help you be nice and comfortable for your sound journey.
