Our parasympathetic nervous system gets little time to be active as compared to our sympathetic nervous system. While yoga asana practice itself provides calming and relaxing benefits, there are certain styles of yoga that provide a deeper relaxation to the mind and body. One such style is Yin Yoga. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
In contrast to the dynamic and challenging nature of styles like Ashtanga Vinyasa (practiced in a more Yang way), Yin yoga is a slow-paced, meditative practice.
