Strengthen Your Immune System with Dao Yin

Wishing you health and happiness in 2025 and offering support on your wellness journey! 

As yogis, we know the power of mindful movement and breath to nurture body, mind, and spirit. This month, we want to share the ancient Chinese practice of Dao Yin—a powerful complement to your yoga practice that can help boost your immune system and build nervous system resilience.

Dao Yin combines gentle tapping with a soft fist as well as slow mindful inhales and exhales to enhance the flow of Qi (vital energy) in the body. This practice has been celebrated for centuries for its ability to strengthen the body's defenses and promote overall wellness.

Here’s how Dao Yin supports your immunity and builds resilience 

✨ Enhances Circulation: gentle tapping encourages lymphatic flow, vital for flushing out toxins.

✨ Reduces Stress: slow mindful breathing lowers stress hormones that can weaken immunity.

✨ Promotes Relaxation: fostering deep rest, allowing your body to repair and recharge.

Good health isn’t something we simply wish for—it’s a commitment to action, consistency, and self-care. 

Speaking of wishes, as we dive into 2025, we want to share news of our upcoming book! 

The Wish Fish, is scheduled to be released in early April, whoo-hoo!

     This yoga storytelling adventure takes us on a thrilling journey to Japan, where a humble fisherman catches a glittering golden fish that offers to grant wishes if he is released. The fisherman wishes to live a simple life, but his greedy wife wants more. How far will it go?

     In this timeless tale simplicity, satisfaction, and gratitude are exemplified. Although intended for ages 4 to 8, kids of all ages will be entranced.

      Included is a Japanese word guide to help develop an appreciation of a different language, and best of all; a full description of yoga poses make the story come alive as you go on A Yoga Storytelling Adventure! 

The Wish Fish is the perfect companion to inspire both you and your child as you dive into a year full of possibilities. 

XOXO,
