If you’re like me, the idea of putting on tight pants and getting sweaty for a hot vinyasa class sounds like the worst when you’re bleeding, bloating, and low-energy. Even traditional schools of yoga, like Ashtanga Vinyasa, encourage women to take time off from a vigorous practice when they’re on their moon cycles. And yet, all those benefits we get from yoga (stress and pain relief, flexibility, awareness of our emotional body) are the best when we’re more emotionally and physically sensitive.
That’s why I love Yin yoga for moon cycles.
