Burnout isn’t just exhaustion. It’s the weight of constant inner pressure.
This 20-min yin yoga supports stress and burnout by helping the body soften out of survival mode. It’s for when rest feels unsafe, and doing less feels hard, even when you’re tired.
Why This Practice Helps
This practice works with the spleen and liver meridians, which are closely tied to stress, fatigue, digestion, and emotional load.
• The liver responds to pressure, frustration, and being “on” for too long.
• The spleen reflects overthinking, worry, and depletion from doing too much.
Long, supported holds give the nervous system time to settle. There’s no pushing, fixing, or performing—just space for the body to rest.
As the body softens, the pressure to prove, strive, or keep going can release naturally.

• A quieter mental loop
