Yin, it somehow, it's a more passive practice, you hold a pose for about three minutes, sometimes five, but the good news is most of the poses are on the mat. So, it's not like you're standing up in the air you know engaging muscle that is not yin. Yin is focused on the deeper connective tissues.

Annelise Piers 

What I like about a yin breath is that we’re not forcing, we're not controlling, we're not counting, holding, none of the above. Yin is about allowing, it's about accepting.

Annelise Piers 

So, you show up on your mat, your mat can be your chair, your mat can be you standing in the supermarket line. And just start with your breath. Even if you're just exhaling longer, if that's the biggest hack, I can give anybody.
