The powerful healing combination of Yin Yoga & Reiki

After 15 years of offering the combination of Yin Yoga & Reiki, we love to share what we believe is the essence of Yin Yoga & Reiki; deep meditation qualities, healing benefits, and compassion – in the upcoming 3 special workshops live online.  

Each workshop starts with an introduction, followed by meditation and connecting to Reiki. Then José will guide the Yin practice and Jordi will apply Reiki from a distance at the same time. We both encourage you to do self-Reiki during the practice as well; even though you are not familiar with Reiki, Jordi will guide you, so you can practice. We will finish with a relaxation and end meditation.

Workshop 3 | Yin Yoga & Reiki: COMPASSION

April 30th  from 9.30 a.m. to 12.30 p.m

The main ingredient of happiness is gratitude, the main ingredient of meditation is silence and the essential component of any spiritual path is compassion. Compassion goes in two directions, towards others and towards oneself.

During years of practising and teaching, we have happily observed that both, Yin Yoga and Reiki practitioners learn how to be more compassionate with themselves because of the practice. In Yin Yoga compassion is essential. Staying for 5 to 10 minutes in one position makes you feel many sensations, and these sensations aren’t always pleasant. In Yin Yoga, you learn when it is time to go deeper, when it is time to adapt the pose, and when it is time to stay where you are. It allows you to embrace the present moment as it through self-compassion. In Reiki, there are no asanas, but the energy makes you connect with some old tensions and pains, and compassion is essential to let them go without a fight. Moreover, when people practice together, such in retreats or workshops, we see that they become more compassionate to others. We love that! Because this world needs more kindness and compassion than ever. 

Join us in this Special Yin Yoga & Reiki Workshop dedicated to compassion, the very core of any spiritual path.

How it works

These workshops will be live using Zoom. The time of the class is in Amsterdam time so if you are not in central Europe make sure you come at the right time. Once you have registered and paid – you will be given an email with instructions on how to join the Zoom class.

Please make sure you have enough space to practice – and if you have a free wall nearby that’s always good in case we need one. Other props that are handy to have close by: are a mat, a bolster or pillow, blocks (or use books instead) and a blanket.

Workshop Recordings

After the live workshop everyone who signed up will receive access to the downloadable recording for 3 days. This way you can do the workshop later, if you weren’t able to make it live.

If you are unable to download the recording within the 3 days, you can always email me and receive a non-expiring link.

Why we combine Yin Yoga & Reiki

When we first started the Yin Yoga & Reiki combination back in 2008, we experienced how these two spiritual practices together generate a deeply healing and nourishing experience for body, heart and soul. As Yin Yoga & Reiki share a common goal, philosophy and background, we based our workshops on the wisdom of the 5 elemental energies of Traditional Chinese Medicine, enhancing the effects of the deep poses of Yin Yoga and the gentle touch of Reiki.
