40 Minute Yin Yoga Restorative Practice

I've been putting in some work at the gym, so I've been exceptionally sore lately. The best remedy when you're sore is rest, epsom salt baths, water with a little tart cherry juice, and restorative yin yoga.
In today's restorative yoga video, we'll be using a bolster, a blanket and two foam blocks. I prefer foam blocks for restorative yin because they have a little bit of give to them, so you don't feel like you're being stabbed when you relaxing into the pose! As always, I recommend using what you have if you are fresh out of bolsters and blocks. Get creative and look around your house. A couch cushion can double as a bolster, and a thick book can double as a yoga block. Don't let not having the props prevent you from doing this practice. Restorative yin is one of the best ways to de-stress, reduce anxiety, and improve flexibility, so it is definitely something I recommend incorporating into your practice as often as you can.
Give it a try below and let me know how you find it down in the comments section below!

15 Minute Hip Opening Yoga Practice with a Bench
Good morning! We are off to Upstate New York today for day one of the #YBCnewyork retreat. I'm pretty excited about it and can't wait to share photos on instagram.
Today I'm sharing a 15 minute hip opening yoga practice featuring a bench. The bench is optional - you could just use a set of blocks or a similar bench if you have one. The props totally make things easier, though, and are great if you're someone with limited flexibility or kind of new on the ol' yoga path.

The other day a friend asked if I would make a video for absolute beginners. For this video I combine what to expect from most yoga classes with pointers on the poses that show up often like tadasana, downward dog, tree pose, etc. I hope this helps! If you have any suggestions or want to see something specific in a yoga video, please let me know!
