Winter Solstice Extended Yin Yoga Session

Welcome the Winter Solstice with a cosy, seasonally inspired extended yin yoga session.

This extended 90 minute session will incorporate the contemplative stillness of yin yoga poses, supported with gentle embodied movement, somatic meditation and soothing breathwork to ease into deep rest.

Winter is a time of slowness and rest for nature, and it can also be a time of reflection and preparation for the coming year. During this session, we will be synchronising our energy with Mother Nature; reflecting, retreating & recharging our energy for the season ahead.

Finding peace & calm amidst the busyness of the festive season, we will settle into a series of deep, releasing yin postures that will allow us to rest in spaciousness & fully surrender into the winter energy.

Yin yoga is a deeply meditative practice that invites us to delve deep into our inner world. This grounding session explores stillness and motion, stimulating energy flow & restoring the nervous system, allowing tension to ease and stress to melt away.
By holding floor-based poses for minutes at a time, we’ll be increasing flexibility through lengthening the body, whilst enhancing the range of motion in the joints and ligaments.

A time of transformation & rebirth, the winter solstice is a beautiful opportunity for releasing what no longer serves us and setting intentions for what we would like to call in for the year ahead as the daylight starts to gradually increase ~ symbolising hope & new beginnings. The perfect way to slow down, relax and reflect whilst welcoming in this new season.

Date: Saturday 21st December from 1.30pm-3pm
Location: The Sound School (2nd Floor Studio), The Old Print Works, 498 - 506 Moseley Road, Birmingham, B12 9AH
