Share the Love Episode- Swimming and Singing Therapeutic Yin

Bonus

Welcome to a Share the Love episode.

Before we head into a break between seasons I thought I would share a few of the episodes I have been interviewed on about Yin Yoga.

In this episode, I am interviewed by Sarah Nelsen a fellow Yoga Therapist on her podcast which was called Swimming and Singing now called Homecoming.

In this interview, we talked about:

Topics we cover include:

• Brief history of yin yoga

• Yin vs. yang styles of yoga

• Physical practice and mental/emotional practice

• What is therapeutic yin yoga?

• Traditional Chinese Medicine and yin yoga

• Tight spinal muscles: what causes them and how they contribute to back pain and deteriorating spinal health

• Benefits of yin for the nervous system

• Yin and interoception

• Yin and anxiety

• Yin yoga: the gateway drug to meditation

• The importance of normalizing coming to yoga/meditation with a busy, anxious brain

  
  

  I hope you enjoy the episode
