Inviting a gentle yin yoga practice to your monthly bleed can be a life changing experience that brings healing and release mentally, physically, and emotionally. 
 
Yin yoga is a passive form of yoga that doesn't require any flexiblity, balance, or previous yoga experience, All that is required is to hold each pose for a longer period of time than you normally would with other forms of yoga, close your eyes, breath, and meditate into the sensations that you're feeling within your body. 
 
This practice takes you deep into your fascia - the connective tissue in the body along with the tendons and ligaments. 
The fascia is a network that stores much of our previous expriences and emotions which over time contributes to pain and illness when it has no room to be processed.
Through holding these poses, not only can you have a physical and emotional release that leaves you feeling lighter and more alive in your body, but it will also support in increasing your flexibility, awareness, mental focus, and emotional intelligence.
 
Through this specific yin yoga flow, you will hold each pose for 90 seconds - 2 minuets which is a great way to open the door into the yin yoga world.
If you want to go deeper into your practice, feel free to pause the video in between each pose. 
The posses shared are focused on the hips, pelvic bowl, back, and neck. 
This will provide relief for you while you're on your menstruation experiencing neck and back pain, cramps, and heavy emotions to gently guide you into your womb, body, and find your center.
