Summer Solstice Yin Yoga Practice

The longest day of the year is just up ahead and it is a great time for some quiet reflection. A Yin Yoga practice where there is time and space for self exploration gives me the opportunity to do just this. I have created a short sequence that you can do at home and a few tips to go along with the practice. I like to have my journal and have a few inquiry questions that I let roll around while I practice and write any insights that arise.  As we are about midway through the year a few ideas for inquiry are:
Did you make some plans at the beginning of the year?
How have those ideas come to fruition?
Where needs a little more focus and direction?
What can be released to make room for what is to come?

Tips for practice

1. Practice 1 or 2 poses if you are short on time
2. Start in a comfortable seat and take a minute or so to settle into your breath.
3. Spend up to a minute on your back after each position to integrate and notice the effect of the posture.
4. Create the most comfortable and easeful experience for yourself.
5. Use the free Insight Timer app to keep track of time so you aren’t looking at your watch
6. Aim for a curious approach to relaxation and see what is revealed.
