Yin yoga for beginners with Keisha

A virtual yoga experience

Part of the Movement and Mindfulness series by The Wellness Connection.
About this Event

Yin yoga works deeply into our body with passive, longer-held poses.

Yin yoga targets the deepest tissues of the body, our connective tissues – ligaments, joints, bones, and the deep fascia networks of the body – rather than the muscles (which are the physical focus of Yang yoga practices).

Energetically, Yin yoga improves the energy flow, enhancing the flow of chi in the organs. To be healthy, we need healthy organs as well as healthy muscles. Yin yoga also offers wonderful emotional and mental health benefits.
