33: Where Yin Yoga Meets The Nervous System – You are Invited To Join YinMersion

Half way into my pregnancy it has already been teaching me so much about nervous system capacity in a very real and embodied way.  There have been moments where I’ve had to completely let go of productivity and simply listen to what my body was asking for. Moments where slowing down wasn’t a wellness choice or a mindful lifestyle decision, but the only thing that felt possible. And in many ways, that experience has deepened my relationship to my work even further.  Because so much of what I teach around yin yoga and the nervous system comes back to this exact thing: learning how to listen before the body has to shout louder. And because of that, I’ve been thinking very carefully about how I want to move through this transition with intention. And the answer that kept coming back was this: One more YinMersion. One more opening into this work before life shifts into a completely new chapter with motherhood. Because over the past year, this community has grown so much. Many of you found my work only recently. Others wanted to join YinMersion last time, but life got busy, timing didn’t align, or you simply weren’t ready yet. For those who are new here, YinMersion is a free online experience taking place from 19–21 June, where we explore yin yoga through a nervous system and trauma-informed approach.  Whether you join live, through the recordings, the intention is to create enough spaciousness for this work to be felt and integrated in your own timing, rather than simply consumed intellectually. The event is open to both yoga teachers and practitioners, and no prior experience is needed. Thank you for being part of this community during such a transformative season of my life. If today’s episode resonated with you, and you feel called to explore this work more deeply, here are a few gentle next steps you can take: If this resonates and you feel called to this work, I invite you take the first gentle steps: Join my free YINMERSION event on 19-21 June 2026, a 3-day journey for yoga teachers and practitioners to explore how yin yoga can transform the way you relate to your emotions, body, and nervous system. https://greenomlet.kit.com/f1dcfb7d4c [https://greenomlet.kit.com/f1dcfb7d4c] [https://greenomlet.kit.com/f1dcfb7d4c] More resources: Download my free eBook: Meridians & Emotions and Yin Yoga https://greenomlet.kit.com/37e3011856 [https://greenomlet.kit.com/37e3011856] Try the free Emotional & Nervous System Yin Reset, a short accessible yin practice to experience my signature approach: https://greenomlet.kit.com/3a39c33ccc [https://greenomlet.kit.com/3a39c33ccc] [https://greenomlet.kit.com/3a39c33ccc] Watch my free Trauma Awareness Webinar - Trauma Informed Yoga Foundations: https://greenomlet.kit.com/6bfdbb9108 [https://greenomlet.kit.com/6bfdbb9108] Join my next live 100HR Trauma Informed Yin Yoga & Chinese Meridians Teacher Training in Thailand after my maternity break: 28 Feb – 9 Mar 2027 https://tri.ps/UcPui [https://tri.ps/UcPui] 25 Apr – 4 May 2027 https://tri.ps/rAlpu [https://tri.ps/rAlpu] 6-15 Jun 2027 https://tri.ps/QusiF [https://tri.ps/QusiF]   If travelling is not an option right now, you can also join my online self-paced 100HR Trauma Informed Yin Yoga & Chinese Meridians Teacher Training: https://liz41.podia.com/100hr-trauma-informed-yin-yoga-chinese-meridians-teacher-training [https://liz41.podia.com/100hr-trauma-informed-yin-yoga-chinese-meridians-teacher-training] Join the live 30HR The Art of Trauma-Informed Space Holding course in Thailand before my maternity break: 22-26 Mar 2027 https://tri.ps/WcBtX [https://tri.ps/WcBtX]  Join the waitlist of the online self-paced 30HR The Art of Trauma-Informed Space Holding course launching soon: https://greenomlet.kit.com/af6ac132a3 [https://greenomlet.kit.com/af6ac132a3] Check out what my previous graduates share about their experience:  https://youtu.be/taDFLfa7rM4 [https://youtu.be/taDFLfa7rM4] Teacher Training Demo Video: https://youtu.be/LNVceTgK4CQ [https://youtu.be/LNVceTgK4CQ]

32: What is YinMersion And Who Is It For

What exactly is YinMersion and who is this experience really for? In this episode, I’m sharing more about the intention behind YinMersion, my free 3-day online experience for yoga teachers and practitioners exploring yin yoga through a more embodied, nervous system aware, and trauma sensitive approach. We talk about: ❊ why many people intellectually understand healing, nervous system work, or yin yoga, yet still feel disconnected internally  ❊ what happens when yoga becomes another space for performance, optimisation, or “doing healing correctly”  ❊ why so many teachers quietly struggle with holding emotional space in classes  ❊ how practitioners can still feel stuck in cycles of overwhelm, shutdown, anxiety, or overthinking despite “doing all the right things”  ❊ the difference between intensity and true depth in a yin yoga practice  ❊ why nervous system capacity shapes our experience of stillness far more than flexibility does I also share who this work tends to resonate deeply with, and honestly, who it may not be for. YinMersion includes educational workshops, guided yin yoga practices, reflection, live teaching, and space for integration across 3 days together online. Whether you’re a teacher wanting to hold space more confidently or a practitioner wanting to understand yourself more deeply through yin yoga, this experience is designed to help you explore what is happening underneath the surface of the practice. YinMersion takes place 19–21 June. Replays will also be available if you cannot join live.

31: On Popular Demand: YinMersion is Back in June!

YinMersion is coming back this June ✨ This is a free 3-day online experience for yoga teachers and practitioners who want to explore yin yoga through a more embodied, nervous system aware, and trauma sensitive approach. Over the years, I’ve noticed that many people can understand concepts intellectually, yet still feel disconnected from their own bodies in practice. We can learn about the nervous system, emotional regulation, meridians, and mindfulness, but actually recognising those patterns in ourselves is a very different experience. And that’s exactly the space YinMersion was created for. Across these 3 days, we explore: ❊ yin yoga beyond flexibility and performance ❊ how the nervous system responds to stillness ❊ emotional awareness in practice ❊ the difference between pushing through and truly listening ❊ how to approach yin yoga in a more therapeutic, sustainable way This experience is open to both yoga teachers and practitioners. You do not need previous experience, flexibility, or any prior nervous system knowledge to join. Each day includes guided yin practices, teachings, reflection, and space to integrate what you notice in your own body and experience. And if live participation isn’t possible, recordings will be available, so you can move through the experience in your own time and revisit the sessions as needed. Especially in a world that constantly encourages us to push harder, stay productive, and override ourselves, I believe spaces like this matter deeply. Sometimes the most meaningful shifts happen very quietly: when we slow down enough to finally hear ourselves clearly. YinMersion takes place 19–21 June and I would truly love to welcome you into this space.

30: Why Going Deeper in Your Yin Practice Has Nothing to Do with Flexibility

One of the most common things I hear from students, both in classes and in trainings, is this idea of wanting to “go deeper” in their practice. And very often, what they mean by that is getting further into a pose. More stretch, more sensation, more intensity. It’s such a common way of thinking, especially in a yoga culture that has, for a long time, associated progress with flexibility. But over the years, both in my own practice and in teaching, I’ve come to see that depth in yin yoga has very little to do with how far your body goes into a shape.  In fact, some of the deepest experiences I’ve witnessed, both personally and in my students, happened in very subtle, almost unnoticeable ranges of movement. Because what we often call “going deeper” is not really about intensity. It’s about awareness. And awareness requires a very different kind of attention than pushing further into sensation. This is the topic I explore in this video.

29: Can You Hold Space – for Yourself & Others - The Skill Most Courses Don’t Teach

In this episode, we explore something I feel is missing in many yin yoga teacher trainings: learning to truly hold space. Most courses teach poses, sequencing, anatomy, and meridian theory. And while those things matter, they don’t necessarily prepare teachers for what happens when a real human experience unfolds in the room. Because yin yoga has a way of bringing people into contact with themselves on much deeper layers. Emotions can surface. Stillness can feel unfamiliar. Silence can feel usafe. And in those moments, teaching becomes much less about guiding shapes and much more about presence, attunement, and nervous system awareness. In this episode, I explore: • Why space holding is a skill most teacher trainings don’t fully teach • What happens in the nervous system during yin yoga • Why trauma awareness matters in yin yoga spaces • How teachers can unintentionally override or overwhelm students • The difference between guiding poses and holding grounded, supportive space • Why understanding your own nervous system changes the way you teach and practice I also share more about my Meridian–Emotion–Nervous System Yoga Method® and why this work became such an important part of my teaching over the years. If this conversation resonates, you can begin exploring this approach through my free Yin Reset practice, or join me inside YinMersion where we go deeper into these layers together in a more structured and experiential way.
