If you have ever had a spasm or painful tightness on the outside of the hip running down to the knee – you definitely know where your IT band is. This “freezing up effect” affects people from all walks of life and it can be almost debilitating. Today we are doing a Yin Yoga Snack for the outer hip/IT band area to release tension and bring relief from spasms and discomfort. This is a great practice to do weekly to keep the IT Band feeling supple and mobile. Join me!
Props Needed: yoga strap or belt/scarf
Meridians: Gallbladder, Heart, Lung, Spleen
In Yin Yoga we hold poses passively without muscle engagement to mobilize and strengthen the connective tissue, joints, ligaments and bones. We hold these poses for 1-8 minutes and while this can be challenging at times, try to settle in, breath and commit to the stillness. Always connect with your body and breath and come into the pose slowly, to approximately 2/3 of your maximum depth, being mindfully aware of all the sensations.
Thank you for practicing with me today and I look forward to practicing with you again very soon!
Peace & Namaste,
Aprille
