Today’s practice is all about caring for your back! In this 60 minute Yin Yoga practice we will mindfully mobilize the connective tissue in the back, hips, legs and surrounding areas to release tension and relieve lower back pain. A great practice to maintain a healthy back or work with lower back issues.
80% of people suffer from lower back pain, either chronically or intermittently and it can affect work, play, sleep, daily activity and overall health. Taking time each week to soften, mobilize and release tension in the back can help you manage pain and often prevent pain by keeping the back healthy and mobile.
Please consult your physician or physical therapist if you have any questions about whether this practice would be good for your specific back issues and whether it is appropriate for you.

What is Yin Yoga? In Yin Yoga we hold poses passively without muscle engagement to mobilize and strengthen the connective tissue, joints, ligaments and bones. Always connect with your body and breath and come into the pose slowly, to approximately 2/3 of your maximum depth (your appropriate edge), being mindfully aware of all the sensations. We hold these poses for 1-10 minutes and while this can be challenging at times, try to settle in, breath and commit to the stillness. Feel free to use whatever props you need to support yourself to release muscles and fully experience the practice!
Thank you for practicing with me today and I look forward to practicing with you again very soon!
Peace & Namaste,
Aprille
