Yin Yoga & Sound Healing
Advertisement
Yin Yoga & Sound Healing at Keirunga Homestead, Havelock North, 6 Puflett Road, Havelock North
I am guiding this class on the 8th and 15th July, 5.30 - 7 pm. 1.5 hours of gentle, floor based Yin Yoga & Sound Healing with Tibetan Singing Bowls.
Come and relax, restore & fill your cup with a range of restorative and yin yoga shapes accompanied by the sound of the Tibetan Singing Bowls both guided and played by Silke.
You can bring your own yoga props if you prefer (mat, bolster, blanket, cushion, blocks, eye pillow) There are some props at Keirunga that you can borrow. Wear something you can comfortably move in. Bring your water bottle so you can stay hydrated. Feel free to bring a special crystal, photo or anything meaningful to you to recharge with positive energy for our center piece.
Yin Yoga is a beautiful, slow, deep, meditative, relaxing practice that calms our nervous system and enables our body to reset and initiate healing processes. Its my favorite form of yoga, especially in these trying times, when outside influences can be overwhelming.
I use my set of 13 original Tibetan Singing Bowls for the past 8 years. For me Yin Yoga and Sound Healing are a perfect match to initiate relaxation, calm the mind, gently move and support our bodies clear negative energy, release energy blocks and support good sleep and self healing.
Some physical benefits of Yin Yoga:
– Improve your range of motion and flexibility
– Passively lengthen your muscles through stressing the fascial bags that wrap the muscle fibers.
– Reduce adhesions, which restrict movement between the sliding surfaces of our muscles
– Stimulate growth of fibroblasts, which are the cells responsible for creating collagen, elastin, and the water-loving molecules that hydrate our tissues and joints.
– make your ligaments thicker and stronger through greater collagen production.
– improve lubrication through greater hydration of our tissues, which allows joints to move and fascia to slide more easily
– Keep your skin younger looking though hydration, which provides room for cells to migrate through the extracellular matrix.
– Compress the extracellular matrix to liquefy the ground substance, which is often in a gel-like state, allowing toxins to flow out of the tissues
– Stimulate the chondrocytes and osteoblasts, which create cartilage and bone, helping to reduce degeneration of these tissues.
– Reestablish the normal lordotic curves of the spine, specifically in the lumbar but also in the cervical spine.
– Prevent or reduce contracture, where the ligaments and the joint capsule shrink and reduce the joint’s mobility
– Reduce osteopenia and osteoporosis, which are dangerous reductions in bone density.
– Reduce fixation, a condition that limits the movement of our joints, and thus prevents fusion, a permanent loss of mobility in the joint.
Some energetic benefits of Yin Yoga:
– Awaken, enhance, and balance prana.
– Stimulate and awaken the kundalini serpent, lending towards eventual liberation and enlightenment.
– Stimulate the production and flow of Chi and Jing energies.
– Nourish the organs through acupressure via compression of the meridian lines.
– Replenish the store of Jing in your Kidneys, which in turn helps all your organs function properly.
– Create tiny piezoelectric currents that stimulate optimal cellular responses.
– Create internal pulsed magnetic fields that can restore cellular health.
– Turn off the sympathetic nervous system (fight-or-flight) and turn on the parasympathetic nervous system (rest-and-digest)
– Increase levels of the neurotransmitter GABA.
