Emotions in Yin Yoga

S 1 | EP. 10

The role of emotions in Yin Yoga is a topic that I often see questions about from teachers and in my teacher training, or in a Facebook group.

And I want to be clear here that Yin Yoga doesn't cause emotions. So, practicing Yin isn't what creates the emotions, but the emotions can come up in Yin. They often come up because we're finally still and quiet, and we have time.

So emotions that might not have been processed throughout the day, throughout your week, your month, your year, your life.

The emotions you've been kind of pushing to the side because you're busying yourself, being a human doing instead of a human being.

Whether this is yourself or your students, those emotions don't have anywhere to go and they just hang there and wait until there's a time to release them, to process them.

I'm also going to talk a little bit about some of the mistakes that teachers make in what they say in class.

So here we go. It's going to be an emotional ride, pun intended. Take a moment to grab your tea, your coffee, and your headphones, settle in and we'll get into this.
