Yin Yoga for Beginners | 45 min Full Body Full Class | with Special Guest Dr. Melissa West

Today we have a special guest for you on Heart Alchemy Yoga, Dr. Melissa West is an expert in beginner yoga and yin yoga. This beginner yin yoga class is a full 45 yin yoga class that will teach you how to practice yin yoga with the three principles of yin yoga. If you are brand new to yoga and get frustrated with other yoga classes on KZbin that don´t give modifications and are too hard to follow, don´t worry, Dr. Melissa West’s beginner yin yoga classes are actually for beginners, people who have never done yoga before. She will offer slow, easy to follow, step by step instructions with lots of modifications.
There are three main principles of yin yoga that Dr. Melissa West will be introducing you to in this beginner yin yoga class: #1 edge, #2 we resolve to be still #3 we stay for awhile. This yin yoga for beginners explores each one in depth. Yin Yoga is a genre of yoga that focuses on the deeper connective tissues wrapping around the joints, particularly in your hips, pelvis and lower spine.
Dr. Melissa West has a 31 day beginner yoga challenge that you can sign up for at melissawest.com and have it delivered right to your inbox or you can check out the beginner playlists below.
Beginner Yin Yoga Sequence: Wide Knee Child’s Pose, Sphinx Pose, Dragon Pose (Lunge Pose), Bananasana, Lying Twist Pose, Savasana

Another Awesome Guide through yin Melissa I always try and make it to the end and 5 mins in Shavassinya (Corps pose) I always feel so open and relaxed Thanks again Sweetheart.

[@ronambergerphotoandvideo6263]

made it to the end. Since my ankles can't go straight I support them with a rolled up blanket for childs pose and lunges. Missed having the music in this one. Music helps me keep my mind from wandering to what to have for lunch.
