Yin yoga adapted for lymphedema for upper body
Spaces Limited. Pre-registration required.
Yin Yoga is a slow paced, passive style of yoga suitable for all levels of fitness and flexibility. Postures are designed to safely apply gentle tension to the connective tissues that form our joints. Postures are held for longer periods of time, targeting the ligaments, tendons, and fascia of the body. Give it a try and enjoy the many benefits of improved range of motion and flexibility while cultivating your inner calmness.
During this session we will focus on supporting the lymphatic system by awakening natural movements, placing the body in shapes and poses that directly stimulate healthy movement of the lymph.
Participants are welcome to bring their own yoga mat, but it is not necessary to bring any equipment. This session will be adapted to all levels of ability and participants can perform the guided movements to the best of their ability from any comfortable position, including seated in a chair. Spaces are limited and the workshop is offered on a sign-up basis. Please consider dressing comfortably for this body movement workshop.
