Yin PrinciplesPage 02

The Three Principles of Yin Yoga

01. Find Your Appropriate Edge: Move into the pose only to 50–70% of your maximum depth. Never force or strain.

02. Resolve to Remain Still: Soften muscles and let gravity work on the deep connective fascia tissue.

03. Hold for Time: Hold poses for 3 to 5 minutes to release deep joint and ligament tension safely.
