Yin Yoga - Five Top Reasons to Do More Training

Welcome to our Vinyasa Yoga Teacher Training! One of the most affordable and comprehensive yoga teacher training programmes on the beautiful island of Bali. We discovered the most compelling reasons to increase your yin yoga teacher training.

1. Balance Yin/Yang

There is no doubt that life is moving pretty fast these days. We are flooded - with more information and stimuli than ever before, and there is an expectation that we will work harder, quicker, and stronger than ever before. It can even be shown in our workout routines, with "power" yoga becoming increasingly popular. Of course, there's nothing wrong with yang practices that increase body heat, make us feel strong, and give our bodies a good workout. What we mean is everything in moderation. In all aspects of life, balance is essential. We burn out when we work too hard.

That's why yin-yoga promotes power recovery in the body, mind, and soul. It helps us land inside the present life and breathe into it as a slow, meditative, grounding practice. Try incorporating yin yoga into your routine and see how it affects your other procedures.

 

2. Restore the health of your connective tissue and joints.

We hold poses for so long in yin yoga to get past the surface muscles and into the tissues and joints. More time in the pose builds trust in our ability to release tension and let go. It lengthens, stretches, compresses, and works the tissues and joints in a comparable way which is what good massage does. We do so much work with our muscles that it's essential to work on what's beneath them, particularly since everything in the body works together to operate normally. 

3. Reduce stress

We gain valuable anxiety-reduction tools as we sit still, slow down, and confront our emotions with patience and compassion. Most people experience anxiety when starting a yin yoga practice and holding poses for a while. Commitment and repetition allow us to realize there is nothing to worry about, and our brains adapt to the situation, finding joy in the stillness. Finding peace on the mat facilitates finding peace in our daily lives and you can enjoy more yoga holiday Bali.

4. Meditation preparation 

Sitting meditation is a practise that many people find overwhelming. Many people experience aches, pains, and stiffness after a few minutes. Many people are overwhelmed when they sit completely still with their minds and no guidance. Yin yoga is an excellent preparation for seated meditation. It stretches and smoothes the body, prepares it to sit upright in stillness, and gives us practice observing our minds. One straightforward approach seems to begin with moving meditation (yang yoga), then move on to meditation within still poses (yin yoga), and finally, still seated meditation. Take baby steps and be gentle with yourself and your mind! 

5. Learn to deal with your emotions.

Have you ever been in a yin class and suddenly experienced an intense rush of emotions you weren't expecting? The yoga community is well aware that we store a lot of emotions in our chest and hips. Backbends and heart openers, along with Pigeon Pose, are recognized to elicit strong emotions. In the face of danger, our instinct is to curl up and protect our chest and neck. Heart-openers can make us feel vulnerable, but they eventually release our fear and provide emotional release. The hips bear a lot of physical tension and weight, which may as well cause discomfort.
