This Yin / Yang session is great to do during your moon days. It consists of Yin poses which help to balance out emotions and to release deeper tension in the hips, back and legs. In the more dynamic Yang parts we do poses which arch and bend the spine, creating movement in the hips to enhance the release of blood out of the body. We also do adapted Sun Salutations, where we don’t let the head go below the hips. The whole sequence will help to release cramps and detoxify your body. It will leave you feel energised and relaxed at the same time. Women who have their period will benefit from this session and also women who have their first menstruation after delivery. You can do the whole session or just certain parts. You can also decide to do more Sun Salutations or hold the Yin poses for longer. Different options are given for each pose so you can adapt them to your needs. Props: blanket, pillow, bolster, blocks.
