…so I do it at home
It's been a while since I have posted a Yin Yoga review. But that doesn't mean I haven't been doing Yin Yoga. I have actually been focusing on two of Yoga Ranger's practices that have already been reviewed here: Yin Yoga for Full Shoulder Flexibility & Release and Yin Yoga for Leg Day. Yin Yoga … Continue reading Yin AM: Yin Yoga for Upper Body Tension Relief
Yin Yoga for Shoulder Flexibility & Release is my first fairly long Yin Yoga practice. And it wasn't as difficult to get through as I thought it would be. My shoulder pain is getting worse, not better, but I don't blame that on the therapeutic things I am doing (Yin Yoga and Classical Stretch). I … Continue reading Yin Yoga for Full Shoulder Flexibility & Release
Yin Yoga for Leg Day is a longer (for me) Yin Yoga practice from Yoga Ranger that stretches out the quads, hamstrings, inner thighs, hips and IT bands. It is 19:30 minutes long and, so far, the longest Yin Yoga practice I have done. I have really been tearing my lower body up with the workouts … Continue reading Yin Yoga for Leg Day
This morning I did Ilaria Montagnani's BodyStrike's Volume 1 so I needed some deep lower body stretching afterwards. A Yin Yoga Snack for the lower body seemed like a good choice. Yoga Ranger's Lower Back & Hamstrings was on my To Do list so it got chosen. This was a great, deep stretch. I did … Continue reading Yin Yoga Snack for Lower Back & Hamstrings

You only hold … Continue reading Yin Yoga Snack for Hips, Hip Flexors & Psoas
Now that I am doing Yoga Ranger workouts, YouTube is recommending all kinds of Yin Yoga workouts to me. PsycheTruth had a short Yin Yoga workout that interested me as well as some longer (30 minute) ones that interest me. This short one is titled Shoulder Pain on the workout and by the Yogi, but … Continue reading Yin Yoga for Shoulder Pain
Yin Yoga Snack for Heart & Hips is another short Yin Yoga practice that focuses on the chest, upper back and hips. This one was more what I expected from Yin Yoga. I was able to hold these poses for the entire period with no discomfort. The biggest problem for me was the rolled up … Continue reading Yin Yoga Snack for Heart & Hips
This morning I did an actual Yin Yoga workout. This workout snack consists of primarily two poses that you hold for a long time. Since I have chronic shoulder pain, I thought this one was a good one to start with. It did not feel as good as I expected it to. It was actually … Continue reading Yin Yoga Snack for Chest, Shoulders & Upper Back Release
