Join Biff Mithoefer, author of The Yin Yoga Kit, and Eric Archer, a senior Jamtse teacher, musician, and poet for a Yin Yoga training that explores the impact of storytelling on your life and body. What stories are carried in the body, and how do we incorporate meaningful storytelling in our teaching or practice.
Storytelling is the most ancient of the healing arts. Stories remind us that our lives ebb and flow. Understanding how your life moves through the universe’s bigger story can help you recognize what stories to let go of and what stories to nourish.
By putting yourself in Yin postures and accessing your deep connective tissue, you will begin to connect with your stories on a deep, somatic level. Some of these stories are healing and can be embraced, while some no longer serve you and can be transformed. When you understand the role storytelling can have in your life, you can learn to genuinely listen to your own stories and respect them for what they can teach you.
This module will expand the heart of the Jamtse approach to Yin Yoga, while exploring the relationship of storytelling to our own unique Yin Yoga practice, incorporating deep listening, ecstatic poetry, live music, and meditation.

This training is a stand-alone training, and is open to anyone who has taken Taoism, Anatomy and Sequencing and Embracing the Yin Path as well as any dedicated yoga students or teachers who are interested in deepening their practice. If you haven’t studied with me before and plan on coming to the third module only, then I ask that you get a copy of The Yin Yoga Kit, and familiarize yourself with the basic concepts, and do some of the practices in the book or CD. The training is suitable for teachers and dedicated practitioners. You don’t need to be a teacher or even experienced in Yin, just come with an open heart and a willing mind.
