(23 min YOGA) Yin to Connect with our Inner Child w/ Maya Elena

Listen to the playlist

We made a custom PLAYLIST on Spotify to enjoy with this class…

This sweet and gentle practice incorporates inner child work into long held poses to shift us out of a higher brainwave frequency state (called beta), and into slower frequencies alpha and theta. Doing so will allow you to start the process of releasing long held limiting belief systems that no longer serve you.

Postures include a shoulder tension pose, twists to detoxify, and a deep forward fold for contemplation. There is no savasana at the end of this practice, but feel free to pause and take your own, or continue after the video ends!

Reflection

1) What is my relationship with my inner child?

2) In what ways am I showing up at the person I needed when I was younger?

3) How can I incorporate a new daily creative practice into my life? (maybe drawing a picture, singing in the shower or car, joining a choir, cooking a new recipe, or going to a dance class!)
