Elevate Your Health: The Yin Approach to Wellbeing

Embrace the healing power of stillness and somatic healing practices with Elevate Your Health: The Yin Approach to Wellbeing—an integrative, self-paced online yoga therapy training that is part of My Vinyasa Practice’s Yoga Therapy Mini Series. This course blends the wisdom of Yin Yoga with evidence-based approaches to physical, emotional, and energetic health, offering a gentle yet transformative path to whole-person wellness. You’ll explore the mind-body connection through the lens of Traditional Chinese Medicine, fascia theory, and nervous system regulation, while gaining a deeper understanding of how stress, stagnation, and imbalance impact your health. Through guided Yin sequences, breathwork, meditation, and reflective self-inquiry, you’ll uncover how slowing down can reveal profound opportunities for healing, resilience, and renewal. You’ll learn how long-held poses, breath awareness, and mindfulness support nervous system regulation, enhance circulation of Qi or prana, and promote emotional clarity.

Why Choose Elevate Your Health: The Yin Approach to Wellbeing?

Many wellness programs offer general advice on relaxation and self-care, but My Vinyasa Practice’s Elevate Your Health: The Yin Approach to Wellbeing delivers a truly integrative experience grounded in the science of the nervous system and the wisdom of Yin Yoga.

This course was exactly what I needed to reconnect with myself. The combination of Yin Yoga, nervous system education, and subtle body awareness helped me not only feel more grounded but also understand why these practices work. I’ve already started incorporating what I learned into my personal and professional routines.
