Winter
Cosy Yin time for winter wellness
A Yin mini retreat for rest and renewal
At Lila Yoga Edinburgh
28th November 2026

Beat any winter blues and give your immune system a boost with a quiet, restorative Yin yoga mini retreat.
This time of year can take its toll on our immune systems and emotional wellbeing, whether the winter is washing us out, the dark days bringing us down or we just need some well deserved time out.
This workshop will be based around the element of water and the Kidney/bladder meridians. By nurturing this element we can help to ignite our sense of resolve, allowing us to stay focussed on our path, help to support bone tissue health, let go of our fears and find our inner wisdom.
I strive for you to feel nourished and well rested after this time in a held space.
Who is this workshop suitable for?
Suitable for all levels. Yin yoga can be quite intense and the sustained, supported holds (approx 2 - 4 mins) can sometimes feel overwhelming. You have full permission to exit poses whenever you wish and various options are given.
What to expect?
The workshop will begin with centering and a 10 minute low, slow, gentle flow to warm the body and help focus the mind to the breath.
The practice will then move into the Yin work using props to support the body. All props will be provided.
After taking asana practice, the workshop will move into some pranayama and meditation to keep us buoyant over the season and help us keep our inner glow as we head towards the spring months.
The space is warm but everyone is different - you may wish to dress in layers and have some cosy socks.
You may wish to make sure you don’t have much going on for the rest of the day so you can fully rest and recharge when you get home. If driving or cycling after the workshop please allow some extra time to readjust.
