As we reach the Spring Equinox, nature finds a moment of balance—day and night are equal, Yin and Yang in harmony. This marks a shift toward longer days and rising Yang Qi, but it also invites us to pause and align with nature’s rhythm before the full momentum of spring unfolds.

In Chinese Medicine, this is the season of Wood, governed by the Liver and Gallbladder meridians, which support flexibility, clarity, and flow. As the external world quickens, this practice offers space to find inner balance—between stillness and movement, structure and freedom, intention and ease.

About This Class:

This Somatic Yin yoga practice is inspired by the equilibrium of the Spring Equinox helping you cultivate steadiness amidst seasonal change. Through long-held, meditative postures, we will:

• Open the sides of the body, hips, and inner thighs, supporting the smooth flow of Liver and Gallbladder Qi.
• Encourage balance and stability, integrating grounding shapes with expansive ones.
• Deepen awareness of breath and sensation, using stillness to attune to subtle inner shifts.
• Explore the interplay of Yin and Yang, allowing space for restoration before spring’s full expansion.

Like the moment between inhale and exhale, Spring Equinox offers a pause—an opportunity to align, center, and move forward with clarity and ease.
