Yin for the Hips (45min) | REHAB & RESTORATIVE
Rehab and Restorative
•
42m
Get comfy and wind down with this slow moving Yin Yoga practice. We hold each shape for about three minutes, and really dive into letting go. I suggest being warm and comfy, having some cushions and pillows nearby to support you in these shapes. We will mostly focus on releasing the hips, and this sequence felt really good for my body after a several days of commuting on my bike. A note on long holds: try not to push as deep into these shapes as you would in a shorter style of stretching.
Equipment: cushions/blocks/bolsters/blankets.
