What are the benefits of Yin Yoga? 2

 Benefits of Yin Yoga

Stretch and strengthen your joints, as well as your muscles.
Loading...

The practices of yin and yang yoga complement each other with their opposite natures. Yin yoga puts you in conditions, allowing you to stretch and strengthen, as well as achieving complete relaxation conducive to effective meditation that yoga alone can not help you achieve. The benefits of yin yoga are rich for the mind and the body.

Stretching connective tissue

The poses associated with yin yoga stretch and strengthen mainly the joints and connective tissue that surrounds them, unlike the muscles that are worked mainly in yang yoga. The connective tissue can be found throughout the body, but is mainly concentrated in the joints. Yin yoga supports the stretching and relaxation of the hips, knees and spine, which are not areas that most people consider to work. Doing so, however, promotes better circulation, as well as flexibility in areas of the body that would otherwise be inflexible. Long, gentle stretches are maintained for at least three minutes and, often, for a longer time.

Benefits at the energy level

Prana, or life force, which resides in the tissues of the whole body, often stagnates. It is as if the joints and tissues act as a prey to the natural flow of internal energy. The poses of yin yoga, which act in a similar way to Chinese acupuncture, call for the release of this blockage. The energy channels known as nadis have control over things, such as emotional well-being and the immune system. The strengthening of these channels is one of the motivations behind many of the poses of yin yoga.

Mental balance through meditation

Meditation is a way of being in harmony with oneself. Practicing it is a liberating act and it is very likely that you will develop a greater sense of comfort and control within yourself. Calming the mind and body, and remaining calm for the purpose of knowing your internal progress, are characteristic of both yin yoga and meditation. Meditating after the practice of yin yoga is useful, since you have mentally prepared through the latter. Yin yoga also allows physical preparation for meditation. It works to improve the flow of energy inside and physically opens the hip area, allowing a proper positioning for meditation.

Additional benefits over external sources

Internal balance and harmony affect how one reacts to external forces. With the clarity gained through the practices of yin yoga and meditation, external stressors fail to disturb your mental and physical states. The physical and mental training by maintaining uncomfortable positions for long periods of time, translates into resistance in other aspects of daily life. As the yin yoga instructors, Sarah Powers, said, “It trains you to feel more comfortable with the uncomfortable, instead of feeling alarmed.” You will have the discipline to better support both physical and mental discomfort.

Yoga is one of the most common classes or workshops that can be seen in a gym, and thanks to its practice it will be possible to relax the body so that muscle fatigue from exercises is minimal.

However, muscle stress can occur not only in this way, but also due to the accumulation of stress due to work stress, bad postures, etc.
