Yin Yoga is a slow-paced style of yoga that focuses on holding poses for extended periods, typically ranging from 1 to 5 minutes. The practice emphasizes the passive stretching of the deep connective tissues, such as the fascia, ligaments, and joints, rather than the muscles. This approach aims to enhance flexibility, increase circulation in the joints, and stimulate the flow of energy through the meridian lines of the body, according to traditional Chinese medicine principles.

In Yin Yoga, poses are usually seated or lying down, and props like blocks, bolsters, and blankets are often used to support the body and promote relaxation. The goal is to find a comfortable edge in each pose and then gently hold it, allowing the body to gradually release tension and deepen the stretch. The practice is meditative in nature, encouraging mindfulness and introspection as practitioners sit with their sensations and breath.

It is suitable for practitioners of all levels and can be beneficial for improving joint health, relieving stress, and fostering a sense of inner calm.
