Sleep & evening calm

Choose a short evening class when your mind is full, your body feels tired but restless, or your sleep rhythm needs a softer landing.

Back, hips & fascia

Slow holds give connective tissue time to respond and help release tension around the lower back, psoas, hips and pelvis.

Stress & nervous system

Sessions with calm breathing, fewer stimuli and supported postures help your system shift from control into recovery.

Tessa's selection

Why these Yin Yoga videos work

Yin Yoga does not work by doing more, but by staying longer. In the videos on this page, Tessa guides you through slow postures, gentle breath cues and enough silence for the body to settle on its own. That makes the sessions useful for evenings when your mind keeps spinning, your lower back feels tense or your nervous system struggles to downshift.

The library combines short beginner-friendly classes with longer practices for fascia, hips, psoas, heart space and the vagus nerve. There is nothing to perform: choose a video that matches what you feel now, prepare a cushion or blanket if needed, and let the posture become simpler rather than deeper.

How to get the most out of these videos

A simple weekly rhythm to build Yin Yoga into your life — no pressure, no mat marathons. Three times a week is enough to noticeably calm your nervous system.

Step 1 · Evening

Pick a calm session

Start with a 15–25 minute yin session, ideally 1 to 2 hours before bedtime. Dim the lights, grab a cushion and put your phone on silent.

Step 2 · Breath

Breathe through the pose

Hold each pose for 3–5 minutes and breathe slowly through your nose. For deeper impact combine this with a short breathwork practice or the free Breath Check.

Step 3 · Rhythm

Build up to 3× per week

Aim for 3 sessions a week for noticeable calm within 2 weeks. Want a structured daily rhythm? Have a look at the 30-Day Challenge.

What's inside this video library?

Tessa curates sessions that complement each other — from gentle evening yin to longer fascia release and short breathwork practices in between.

Yin yoga for better sleep

Short evening sessions with hip openers, butterfly pose and child's pose — focused on calming the parasympathetic nervous system.

Fascia release & connective tissue

Longer holds of 5–7 minutes that work deeply on fascia, joints and stored tension in hips and lower back.

Breathwork & pranayama

Short sessions with box breathing, 4-7-8 breath and connected breathing — perfect to combine with breathwork coaching.

Yin for stress & burnout

Sessions for anyone chronically switched "on" — restorative poses that remind your system how to rest. Background on our Yin Yoga pillar page.
