Due to some unavoidable life-currents this week, I wasn’t able to share Tuesday’s Meditation Experiment. But I’m including two practices here—both part of this week’s Yin Practice Lab, and I hope they support your journey through the elements of Wood and Fire.

If you like these practices, please consider becoming a paid subscriber. You will receive a weekly rhythm of a reflective essay, a meditation experiment, and a Yin Yoga Practice.

This week, we continue our elemental thread—moving from fascia to spirit, structure to spontaneity—with two new Yin practices exploring the energies of Wood and Fire.

If you missed Sunday’s post, Five Elemental Short Takes offers a poetic, felt introduction to the Five Elements of Chinese Medicine. These classes extend that reflection into your body, breath, and awareness.

🪵 Yin Practice Lab: Wood, Fascia, Fire + Presence (45 min)

This session explores the physical foundations of Wood and Fire—fascia and circulation—and how Yin Yoga collaborates with these systems to support the healthy flow of Qi. Postures include Child’s Pose, Melting Heart, and Twisted Roots, followed by a 15-minute Supported Savasana to deepen into meditative stillness.
