This Yin Yoga practice is designed to release your painful and aching neck and shoulder tension. In one hour yin yoga class, we'll focus on gentle yin yoga stretches and poses that target the connective tissues responsible for neck and shoulder pain.
Several of the yin yoga poses are chosen to open up the chest and shoulders. Opening your chest, helps in improving shoulder mechanics and reducing strain on the neck and shoulders caused by muscular imbalances.
I have also sequences in yin yoga poses that strengthen the scapular stabilizers, including the Serratus Anterior and Lower Trapezius. This will aid in stabilizing the shoulder blades and promoting better posture.
Yin yoga poses will stretch the shoulders, upper back, and between the shoulder blades. We will also focus on gentle decompression of the neck and upper back which can also alleviate neck pain and discomfort.
Throughout the practice, we will to focus on your breath and the principles of yin. I will encourage you to use props like blocks, chairs, and bolsters for extra support and comfort. Listen to your body and make adjustments as needed to ensure a supported and beneficial practice.
By the end of this Yin Yoga session, you'll experience increased flexibility, improved posture, and a sense of release from neck and shoulder pain.
