3 Week Yin Yoga Series: Steady Heart, Open Mind
In a world that feels increasingly loud and heavy, the natural instinct is to close off.
We round our shoulders and guard our hearts, carrying the weight of the "storm" in our upper bodies. But true resilience isn't found in shutting down—it’s found in staying open.
Join me for a 3-week online Yin Yoga series designed to unravel the physical and emotional tension of our times. In times of distress, the only way forward is to focus on what we can control: our breath, our bodies, and our capacity for love.
Over three weeks, we will explore:
Week 1: Mastering Sama Vritti (Equal Breathing) to steady the nervous system.
Week 2: Focus on deep Yin holds to release the chest, shoulders, and upper back.
Week 3: Integrating Sama Vritti Pranayama into the poses to cultivate calmness, compassion and inner strength.
Details:
When: Thursdays 8-9PM ET starting May 14th-21st-28th.
Format: Online (Join from your own space)
Focus: Chest and hip opening. Breathing.
Price: 3 classes: $42/ $14 per class | Drop ins: $18 class
(Note: 24 hour cancellation from time of purchase. After 24 hours the series is non-refundable or drop-in is non-refundable. In case I need to cancel, you’ll get a full refund for any canceled classes. Thanks for your understanding!) (Note: Payment through my website is now possible through paypal. If you don’t want to use paypal I also accept venmo and zelle, just email: contact@mariahochnowski.com and I will email you the info.
What do you need in order to practice these sessions:
2 blocks
1 bolster (or large folded duvet as substitute)
1 strap (a scarf or even belt works as a substitute)
1 Blanket
Comfortable clothes/socks (layering encouraged, it can get both warm and/or chilly)
Yin yoga is an ideal home practice because it prioritizes the internal experience over physical performance, allowing you to cultivate a "pause button" in your own living space.
Practicing at home decreases self-consciousness. You are free to wear your pajamas, use your own pillows as props, and explore poses without worrying about how you look. Without the distractions of a traditional group environment, you can focus entirely on your experience and the subtle sensations within your body.
Open to all level practitioners. Not ideal during pregnancy due to poses on the stomach. If you’re pregnant and would like to join please reach out to me before booking to discuss options: contact@mariahochnowski.com
I’ll be sending out recordings the day after each class so you can revisit the practice as often as you like. Since I sometimes have breaks between series, I want to make sure you have everything you need to keep your practice going on your own schedule. These replays will be available to you all the way until our next series begins!
Ready to trade the noise for a little more calm?
If you have any questions please email: contact@mariahochnowski.com
Once you have signed up and paid you’ll receive an email with more information about the series within 48 hours.
If you need to cancel within the first 24 hours (during the cancelation window) please email contact@mariahochnowski.com as soon as possible and within 24 hours of booking the series.
Can’t wait to see you one the mat!
