Yin Yoga: A student’s reflections

“I find that what I experience after a yin yoga session is different from the feeling after yang yoga, or after other exercise forms.  It reminds me of the feeling I get from practicing tai chi.   It is not so much the presence of great stretch, or heat, or blood pounding through the body, or anything outwardly obvious like that.  In fact, it is notable more for the lack of any soreness, tightness, or hindrances.  Its as if everything is simply and calmly as it should be.  Its understated, and hard to pin down, or quantify.  The joints work, the posture finds itself to be correct, and the rest of the day invevitably goes more smoothly.” –  yoga student Robert Shapiro
