Why Yin Yoga + Acupuncture?

Think long, deep stretches that let your muscles and mind unwind. Yin Yoga focusses on releasing tension, increasing mobility, and bringing a sense of calm that your body has been desperately searching for.

Enter acupuncture, your new bestie in relaxation. After your yin session, our acupuncturist Kate will work her magic with fine needles that help balance your energy, calm your nervous system, and leave you feeling like you’re floating on cloud 9. Will it hurt? Nope! No need to worry. The needles used are super fine and most people barely feel a thing. (some might even fall asleep!). Plus, the benefits far outweigh any initial sensation. Think of it as a mini energy reboot—you’ll leave feeling more balanced, grounded, and deeply relaxed.

Any acupuncture points used will be easily accessible from the knees and elbows down, the most important part being that it is a comfortable, enjoyable experience for you.

Combining these two modalities amplifies the benefits—yin yoga creates space in your body, allowing the energy flow that acupuncture facilitates to be more effective.

Share the Experience
Why not bring a friend, partner, or colleague along? This retreat is the perfect way to share the gift of relaxation with someone special. Whether it’s family, friends, or coworkers, stepping into this sanctuary together will deepen your bond and create a shared memory of tranquility and healing.

What you need to bring: 

We’ve got the yin and the pin, but here’s what you need to complete the magic:

• 🧘‍♀️ Your comfiest yoga mat – This is your time to relax, not fidget with an uncomfortable mat.
• 🧱A yoga block – For extra support and relaxation in poses, making it even easier to let go.
  
• 🛌 A cozy blanket (or two) – Perfect for that deep, post-yin snuggle as the acupuncture does its magic.
• 💧 Your favorite water bottle – Stay hydrated in style (bonus points if it’s reusable 🌿).
• 🧠 An open mind – You’re here for the ultimate chill vibes, so come ready to reset and recharge.
• 👚 Comfy clothes – Think “Sunday morning at home” vibes—the more relaxed, the better.

P.S. If you’ve got an eye pillow or anything that helps you feel super zen, bring that along too! We’re all about those personal touches. ✨
