Yin/Restorative Yoga ( with headphone option) (75 min)
This class is a combo of Yin and Restorative Yoga.We now have top of the line noise reduction HIFI headphones connected to our microphoned yoga teacher. This option will allow you to sink deeper into a meditative state as most solfeggio and binaural beat music requires a headset to get true benefit of two frequencies merging together. You will have control of your own volume and choice to not use headphones and practice with no music and only verbal cues for guidance. A Yin yoga class consists of a series of long-held, passive floor poses that mainly work the lower part of the body – the hips, pelvis, inner thighs, lower spine. These areas are especially rich in connective tissues. The poses are held for up to five minutes, sometimes longer. The yin poses, therefore, are passive and performed while seated or in a reclining position. The poses are held with the muscles fully relaxed, allowing time and gravity to deepen the stretch and target the fascia. The time spent holding these asanas is similar to meditation. With the chosen restorative postures, you are supported by blankets, bolsters and at your discretion have sand bags for grounding. Sivasana is emphasized in this class with use periodically of Gong and sound bowls.
