YIN YOGA
ACTIVE RECOVERY, JOINT HEALTH & RANGE OF MOTION
Yin and Yang represent the balance between active and passive elements in our lives. As hockey players we mostly are in the Yang energy - “fight of flight mode” I am talking about intense games and training, demanding physical exertion and competitive spirit. Everything focused on performance.
To keep our bodies in balance we also need Yin energy - passive energy. Yin Yoga offers crucial benefits such as faster recovery, improved mental clarity, enhanced flexibility and joint health and enhancing sleep quality.
By integrating Yin Yoga into their routine, hockey players can achieve deeper relaxation, reduce stress, and maintain optimal performance on the ice. This harmonious balance between effort and recovery supports longevity in the sport and overall well-being.
