A gentle 30-minute bedtime practice from Day 17 of the Bedtime Yin challenge, built around soft inversions — poses where your hips rest a little higher than your head. We melt into puppy and child’s pose, let everything hang in dangling, settle over your blocks in supported bridge, then release the lower back and rest. Each shape draws the mind quiet and encourages a calming, settled feeling — perfect for unwinding before sleep.
Anyone who wants to switch off at the end of the day and drift toward a deeper night’s sleep. It’s calm, well supported and beginner-friendly, so it suits you whether you’re brand new to Yin or well practiced. Lovely as the last thing you do before climbing into bed.
One or two yoga blocks (or anything that lifts your hips) for supported bridge, your mat, and a warm, quiet space to be still. If your knees are sensitive, fold your mat or add a blanket for padding under puppy pose. Every pose has a gentler option and a deeper one — take whichever feels right tonight.

Just one or two yoga blocks for the supported bridge — anything that helps to gently lift your hips will do. If your knees feel sensitive during puppy pose, fold your mat or slip a blanket underneath for a little padding. Nothing else needed.
Not at all. An inversion simply means your hips are a little higher than your head, which has a lovely calming effect before bed. Every shape in this class is gentle and supported — puppy, dangling and supported bridge — with no headstands or anything strenuous.
Yes. Yin isn't about how far you go — find your edge at about 60–80%, let the props and gravity do the work, and take the gentler option in any pose. It's a calm, welcoming practice to end the day with, whatever your experience.
