Try to listen to music using specific rhythms, tones, frequencies, and intervals that will help to heal and recuperate quickly. Such as those sounds that I found in youtube from Music Nutrition by Anikiko. Like the sound of surrender, sound of transformation, sound of success and a lot more. Try their music, you might like it as well.
I prefer instrumental music w/o vocals...like for example James Hood's album Ceremony where he plays a wonderful Hang Drum. I also listen to a Spa ststion on my SIRIUS radio as i drive to work and often pull over to write down things i know will work and compile long playlists on Spotify that way. DJ Taz Rashid also offers a playlist each month and has some beautiful slower choices besides more dance-y get into sun salutation mode! Hope that helps a bit. And sometimes no music at all. Namaste, Liza
As a dedicated YIN Yoga practitioner and teacher -- with 11 years of offering in this method -- I continue to "peel the proverbial onion." Hope to share YIN Yoga wit you some time at a training, workshop, class or Festival. Namaste. Liza Dousson
Hey guys, I've just released an album of ambient, instrumental songs that I wrote specifically for my yin yoga practice. I played everything on the album, did the field recordings (Australian bush sounds, birds etc) myself and even mixed it. It was a huge undertaking.
A few other yoga teacher mates have been playing it and given me some super positive feedback, so I thought I'd share it here! It's available free on Spotify and Apple Music, hell, I'll even DM you a link to download some WAVs or mp4s if you want! I honestly don't care about money when it comes to my music, just to know the art I worked on so hard for so long is being used to help other yogis deepen their practice, would mean the world to me.

Do any teachers or students have a favorite playlist, artist or song that they could share?
Thanks in advance!
I found this melodic sequence on youtube and I found it fantastic in my sessions. Maybe it will work for you too.
Hey there! I have a pretty reliable playlist of wonderful songs that you might get some inspiration from. There's a nice mix of contemporary, classical and traditional in here, so it could spark something for you https://open.spotify.com/playlist/5y1dO ... lMm86gKZmw

Hope it helps. Enjoy!
Thank you for that, I have checked it out and found a lot of songs that I am definitely going to keep !
I use gentle tones while doing yoga and sometimes I prefer to use CD's that include music as well as loving guidance while I'm practicing. Lately, I've been using this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2RTZNLL0wss and it's incredibly soothing . I also have a couple CD's that do require purchase, but are amazingly helpful, here is the link for anyone interested, https://shrsl.com/373t7 . They are both wonderful for yin yoga.
Hi everyone ... as those who have been taking the Welcome to the Yinside weekly online classes already know, each week we offer a Spotify playlist to accompany the class. Below is a listing of the playlists in case you would like to see them all in one place.
