Yin Yoga Integration to Harness Your Anger & Be a Force for Change

You've probably been experiencing a spectrum of emotions, including pain, anger and sadness lately during the eruption of fierce racial injustices in the US. And when these emotions surface, it can be hard to know what to do with them, let alone how and where to direct them.

But when properly managed, anger is the most powerful emotion that can fuel change.

According to Chinese Medicine, the Liver system smoothes the flow of all emotions, and stagnation in the Liver can lead to frustration and outbursts of anger. Since the Liver controls the tendons and the smooth flow of Qi throughout your body, it's imperative to work with movement to manage your emotions and optimize your health.

Freedom of movement allows you to see all sides of an issue so you can see the world beyond your conditioned lens; and this allows you to make clear decisions that ultimately drive change.

This Yoga Integration practice focuses on unbinding your Liver & Gallbladder Qi so you can be more decisive and harness your anger so you can be an effective force for change both in the world and in any aspect of your life.
