Yin Yoga Cards | How it works

Daily surprise combinations of yin yoga practice at your pace and time.

 steps

 1. Determine how long you want to devote to your practice
Think about how much time you want to spend on your practice today and set that on a timer. Also consider how many postures you want to do and how many cards you will draw.

2. Tune in with yourself
Sit comfortably and pay attention to your breathing. Be open and receptive to what your body has to tell you.
3. Pick your cards (the Tarot-way)
Shuffle the cards (blind) and intuitively draw the number of cards previously chosen. Look at the cards you've drawn; you can keep the order in which you drew them or come up with a nice order for yourself.

4. Practice

Perform the positions at your pace and time and rest after each position.

By drawing the cards blindly you tune into your subconscious,
which can cause you to be faced with beautiful surprises.

Because some positions for left and right are included as their own card in the set, you may do a position on one side but not on the other side. Of course you can always do the other side if you feel it is good for you!

There are of course more ways to work with the cards. Consider themes such as working with a specific target area, a specific chakra, meridian or element.
You can also use the cards to teach or prepare a yin yoga class; or use it in a calm, playful way with your child. You will find more explanations in the card set.
