About me

Namaste! Welcome to my world of Yin Yoga. I am thrilled to share my journey and insights as a Yin Yogi blogger with you!

My name is Yan Man, and my love affair with Yin Yoga began during the pandemic quarantine, where I found solace and inspiration in exploring new ways to nurture my mind, body, and soul. As I embarked on this journey, I quickly discovered the profound effects of Yin Yoga on my overall well-being. Its gentle, introspective nature allowed me to find stillness amidst the chaos and cultivate a sense of inner peace.

To deepen my understanding of Yin Yoga and its connection to Chinese Medicine, I pursued a 50-hour Yin Yoga and Chinese Medicine Teacher Training program accredited by Yoga Alliance. Through this immersive experience, I gained profound insights into the ancient wisdom and philosophy that underlies Yin Yoga and Chinese Medicine.

Through this blog, I aim to inspire and guide others on their own journey of self-discovery and self-care. Whether you are a beginner or an experienced yogi, my intention is to create a space where we can connect, learn, and grow together.

Join me as we explore the depths of Yin Yoga, discover the healing powers of Chinese Medicine, and unlock the secrets of inner peace and balance. Together, let us embark on a transformative journey towards greater well-being, one breath and one pose at a time.

With love and light,
Yan Man
