Yin Yoga
WHY IS YIN YOGA THE CURRENT “IN” YOGA &
WHAT DOES YIN YOGA DO?
“The Best Modern Day Regular Stress Management Technique Todate”
Mahes Karuppiah-Quillen N.D
Yin Yoga is gaining popularity as the “in” yoga because it offers a unique blend of deep, passive stretching with a focus on the connective tissues, promoting flexibility and joint health. It is considered one of the best modern-day stress management techniques because it encourages a meditative state, allowing practitioners to release tension both physically and mentally. The practice of holding poses for extended periods helps to calm the mind, reduce anxiety, and increase circulation, which can lead to improved emotional balance and a sense of inner peace.​
Mahes emphasizes Yin Yoga’s benefits, highlighting its ability to balance the mind and body, improve flexibility, and enhance the flow of chi or prana, making it a comprehensive approach to holistic well-being.

Yoga Nidra
WHAT IS YOGA NIDRA?
“Yet another powerful ancient antidote to modern-day stressed-out lifestyles”
Mahes Karuppiah-Quillen N.D
Yoga Nidra, often referred to as “yogic sleep,” is a profound practice that guides you to the liminal state between wakefulness and sleep.
Here, profound healing and emotional release occur as you transition into the restorative “rest and digest” mode of the parasympathetic nervous system. This ancient technique quiets the mind’s chatter, allowing for a deep sense of peace and reconnection with oneself and the surrounding world. It’s an effective antidote to the relentless stress of modern life, promoting harmony and well-being.
​
Regular Yoga Nidra sessions offer a multitude of benefits for both the mind and body, making it a valuable practice for overall well-being. Here are some of the key benefits:
-
Stress Reduction: Yoga Nidra calms the sympathetic nervous system, shifting from ‘fight-or-flight’ to a relaxation response, lowering cortisol levels
-
Anxiety and PTSD Relief: It helps lessen anxiety and emotional tension related to PTSD, with clinical trials showing impressive results
-
Improved Sleep Quality: The practice induces a sleep-like state, stimulating brain waves associated with deep sleep, which combats insomnia and improves sleep
-
Chronic Pain Management: Yoga Nidra can be an effective technique for treating chronic pain
-
Enhanced Cognitive Function: It enhances cognitive function, including improved thought patterns and reduced stress
-
Increased Self-Awareness: The practice improves self-awareness and presence, allowing for greater mindfulness
-
Physical Health: Regular practice can lead to improved blood pressure and reduced degeneration of tissues
-
Emotional Well-being: It boosts mood, confidence, resilience, and concentration, while increasing alertness.
