Yin yoga

I shall start documenting my progress with yin yoga in this blog from now onwards. My target is to archieve flexiblity and relax and sleep well. I want to be able to fold forwards fully and to do the saddle pose to heal my digestion problems. I also want to do more hip openers. I am not very flexible in many parts and I have the occasional knee pain whenever I stretch in the wrong direction.

I have read Paul Grilley's and Biff Mithoeffer's books. I have also been  watching Bernie Clark's YouTube videos as well. I also bought that book on Gravity Yoga from Lucus Roockwood. According to them you have to stretch for at least 5 minutes for each pose to get there. I am now at a lost on which poses to do with so little time every night. Each book has it's own suggestions too. I have been stretching for the past few months and I rely a lot on props like blocks and belts. So far I still hurt my knees and sometimes the back too.  I haven't become more flexible yet. Maybe I am too ambitious. This blog will record my progress. I regret that I have no original pictures to share at the moment. Perhaps when I am in the mood, I will draw with my tablet some of the poses.
