We discuss the benefits of yin yoga and how it can be used as a form of medicine to address physical and mental health issues. We also touch on the importance of having practices like yoga and meditation to support an alcohol-free life. Episode Highlights: Yin yoga is a slow-paced style of yoga that focuses on long holds to promote fascia release and nourishment of joints It can be used to address specific health issues by targeting relevant meridian points and poses - Practices like yin yoga and meditation are important to have as "scaffolding" to support life without relying on coping mechanisms like alcohol Community and shared experiences, like those offered in Rebecca's classes, can help people feel less alone and more able to sit with difficult emotions LINKS Find out more about Rebecca at https://www.peaceloveacupuncture.com/  Follow Rebecca on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/peace.love.and.acupuncture/  My Upcoming Live Coached Events & Programs: Virtual Retreat - 5 Days To Freedom - 19th-23rd Feb 2024  https://www.hoperisingcoaching.com/5dayvrfeb2024 FREE Masterclass - '5 Surprising Ways Taking A Break From Alcohol Can Be Effortless & Change your Life' - 28th Feb 2024 - https://www.hoperisingcoaching.com/feb24masterclassreg 30 Day - Great Aussie Alcohol Experiment - LIVE! 4th March - 2nd April 2024 - https://www.hoperisingcoaching.com/the_great_aussie_alcohol_experiment Learn more about Emma Gilmour at: www.hoperisingcoaching.com Follow Emma Gilmour on insta @hoperisingcoaching Loved this episode?
