18: Beyond Asanas: How the Felt Sense of Safety Transforms Your Yin Yoga Practice
Update: 2025-10-24
Description
When you come into a yin yoga pose, what truly matters isn’t how deep you go, it’s whether your body feels safe enough to soften.
In this episode, we explore the felt sense of safety, the deep, quiet signal in your nervous system that says, “I don’t have to be on guard right now.” Without this internal safety, no sequence, no cue, and no posture will create the calm we long for.
You’ll learn:
Why your nervous system must feel safe before it can relax
How trauma-informed yin yoga helps the body trust again
Why “regulation” isn’t about staying calm
How well-meaning yoga cues can unintentionally bypass the body’s reality
What changes when we prioritize safety before shapes
How trauma-informed yin yoga helps the body trust again
Why “regulation” isn’t about staying calm
How well-meaning yoga cues can unintentionally bypass the body’s reality
What changes when we prioritize safety before shapes
This isn’t about performing poses. It’s about remembering that healing happens when your body feels safe enough to unfold, not when you force it into a shape.
