I’m in the middle of preparing the training manual for the upcoming Meridian Yin Yoga Teacher Training, and before I finalize anything,I want to hear from you. I know many of you inside this community are teachers, coaches, bodyworkers, or guides in your own ways — working with movement, breath, emotions, or healing. Lately I’ve been reflecting on how many different modalities we all come from… and also how often we hit the same walls. So I’m curious (and genuinely want to hear this from you): 1️⃣ In your own practice or teaching, where do you feel the biggest gap in understanding the body? — fascia?— emotions?— organs & visceral patterns?— meridians & energy flow?— nervous system regulation?— or something you can’t quite name? 2️⃣ What is one thing you often sense in your students/clients… but don’t yet have the language or tools to fully support? 3️⃣ And if you could deepen your skillset in one direction next year, what would you choose? I’m asking because whenever people share these answers, a very clear pattern always appears: Most practitioners are highly trained in techniques…but rarely taught how the internal landscape actually works —how fascia, organs, emotions, meridians, and the mind interlink. I’m simply curious…and I think this conversation will open a lot of clarity for everyone here. 🌿

A Meridian Yin Yoga Practice As the seasons shift, nature teaches us how to descend — how to slow, soften, and gather our energy inward.This class is an invitation to do the same. We’ll explore the Water and Earth elements through Meridian Yin Yoga — harmonizing the Kidney–Bladder and Spleen–Stomach meridians to restore flow, nourishment, and inner quiet. You’ll experience what it feels like when stillness becomes medicine — when fascia, breath, and energy begin to communicate beneath the surface of movement. 🌿 In 90 mins You’ll Experience: - How meridians move through fascia and how Yin postures guide Qi along these pathways - The energetic anatomy of organs — how the Kidneys store fear and willpower, how the Spleen grounds us through care and digestion - The art of sequencing by element, aligning practice themes with natural and emotional cycles - The science of surrender — how fascia rehydrates and the nervous system resets through long-held postures - The bridge between Eastern and Western anatomy — from meridian flow to bone variation and visceral connections - How to practice in a way that is somatic, sensory, and alive — so students feel seen, not corrected ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- If you’re a movement coach/energy facilitator or a devoted learner ready to deepen your Yin path — not only with techniques, but with understanding and energetic presence — this journey is for you. 🧭 Meridian Yin Yoga Teacher Training (60 Hours)with Mai Li — Jan 5–Feb 6, 2026Live online + full replays 🌟 Early bird: $1200 until Dec 1st ($1600 onward) Includes printed manual + meridian doll shipped globally This training is for that part of you.

Visceral Fascia Release - This is the gentle self-massage for internal freedom. Your organs aren’t floating freely inside you — they’re wrapped, supported, and suspended by fascia, which connects to your spine, ribs, pelvis, and diaphragm. When that fascia becomes tight from stress, inflammation, surgery, posture, or emotional holding, it can pull your rib cage, restrict breathing, affect digestion, and even limit your range of motion in unexpected areas. By gently releasing tension around your belly and diaphragm, you not only help your organs “breathe” better, but you also improve blood and lymph flow, calm your nervous system, and create space for emotional release. Enjoy your practice! 💡 Before you start — take your “before” test! You’ll be surprised. 1. Sit on the edge of a sofa, bench, or bed. 2. Bring the soles of your feet together (or adapt if that’s not comfortable). 3. Sit tall, then fold forward without forcing. Notice how far you can go — this is your starting point. After practice — Re-Test Sit back up and repeat your forward fold.Notice if you have more space without touching anything in your groin or hamstrings — this is your visceral fascia letting go. 📸 Share your progress and tag @maielements! Extra Notes: - Avoid practice on a full stomach (wait at least 2 hours after eating). - Avoid deep abdominal work during menstruation or with certain medical conditions — listen to your body. - This can be a beautiful pre-bedtime ritual to calm the mind and support deep sleep. - Emotional releases are normal — breathe through them, extend your exhale, and allow your system to settle. ✨ This practice is part of Week 2 in our MSA monthly challenge. We began with external breathing and have now prepared the nervous system enough to go deeper into internal release.If you’d like to join our daily step-by-step practices and learn small but deeply meaningful holistic healing tools each day — you’re welcome to join us!
