Yin Yoga for the Shoulders

As something with a chronic lung condition which left my shoulders slouched forward from all of the intense coughing, I have been using this practice to help me open up my chest and shoulders to help alleviate some of that tension that has built up over the last several years. I am now almost two years post lung transplant, and this practice, along with others here on this site, has finally allowed me to gain some relief and openness within my own body. Time and time again I have read about people feeling an emotional release at the end of a practice, and I am so blessed to say that I finally have felt that experience upon completion of this particular class today. It has become one of my favorites.
Thank you so much.

This really opened up tight shoulders. Beautiful choice of music too. Thank you Sarah.

I'm still recovering from a shoulder injury several years back and am usually reluctant when it comes to stretching my shoulders in any way. This was perfect for me! I need to practice with these postures more often and appreciate your clear and gentle guidance ♡

Sarah, thank you so much for this energizer. It's first thing in the morning, and I'm feeling on top of the world now. Look out world....here I come! :)

I simply loved this practice today. I had a particularly stressful day yesterday and slept very poorly. Since I carry most of my stress in my neck and shoulders, this practice helped me open up those areas and let things go (physically and mentally). Thank you!

I did this after surfing today. It was wonderful. Thank-you!

This is just what I was looking for. The perfect sequence for opening my shoulders and chest. Thank you.

Love the 30 day challenge even though I did not do them all, or sequentially, but has opened me up to new classes and teachers. Love Sarah Jane and discovering Yin postures. My shoulders feel so much better. I will be doing this one regularly. Also ,loved the lower spine one. Thank you .

One of the things I've really enjoyed about the 30 day challenge has been that it's introduced me to new classes, teachers and different forms of yoga practice. I had never done a yin class before now, and I'm so glad that Sarah Jane has taken the time to prepare so many thoroughly rewarding classes. Finding those openings in the chest and shoulders through longer poses has been so beneficial. thank you.

my tight shoulders and arms really enjoyed this and I will be adding this almost daily!
