Into the Yin
A journey to nourish our deep Feminine Essence, heal from burnout and honor nature’s cycles
A 12-week Winter Immersion
with Inga Bylinkina
We begin on January 5th!
Doors are now closed!
Nature is slowing down, the Earth is following its own primordial natural rhythm. Humans since times immemorial followed the same rhythm and were in tune with nature.
Nowadays, we are stuck in a culture that follows a calendar that has nothing to do with that natural rhythm. Coming to the end of the year our consciousness is greatly focused on all the fuss of the holidays and it can get exhausting if you are not mindful.
The year is drawing to a close, winter is settling in.
The pace of modern life is wearing us down and making us anxious, fragmented and overwhelmed.
When was the last time you took time to prioritize your needs for self-nurturing?
When was the last time you honored your fatigue and let yourself sleep some more to recover?
When was the last time you felt deeply nourished, fulfilled and thriving?
If not now — when?
With the Winter Solstice approaching in the northern hemisphere, we observe the highest expression of the Yin energy (slow, dark, receptive, restorative), while the Yang energy (fast, bright, penetrating, expressive) is at its lowest. If we don’t honor this invitation of the Winter Queen to retreat and slow down our pace, we risk entering the new season of growth in the spring with little resources to bring our dreams and ideas to fruition.
If you have been running around in circles, stuck in cycles of depletion and overwhelm, give yourself permission to chill this winter!
You have the right to rest and recover
Slow down, listen deeply, and be open
Softening into the void of the Great Mystery
In the darkness of the night and stillness of the winter we receive
The gifts of deep replenishment and inner wisdom
Hi, I am Inga Bylinkina. I have been walking the spiral journey of healing from burnout for many years.
Like so many of us in the modern world I fell prey to the system that thrives on high productivity, peak performance, competitive edge, success-driven goals, and proving our worth by how much we do and achieve. I have been ignoring my body’s signs of imbalance living in this very masculine way, until I reached a breaking point where I realized that I couldn’t and didn’t want to continue living this way. Since then, year after year, I have been carving a new path, a different way of being and flowing with life that actually honors the needs of my feminine body and my soul to thrive.
Into the Yin is the pearl of wisdom I came out with from my healing from severe illness and burnout lifestyle.
It is the culmination of over 20 years of my studies of Chinese medicine, Daoist arts of Nourishing Life and energy cultivation, somatic practices and deepening into women's work and the ways of the Feminine. Since 2008, I’ve followed my passion to help women reconnect to the wisdom of the natural world, to their body’s innate intelligence, and to self-care as a spiritual practice. I’m committed to sharing the distilled essence of what I’ve experienced to nourish and uplift my sisters.
I invite you Into the Yin this winter season, an online journey for women who care
We care for our children, our communities, our families, we care about nature, our collective future, and we care to be in service to those who need the gifts of our skills and presence. When we care so much, we often find it hard to say No, even when we feel depleted and out of capacity to give more.
The rapidly changing world needs more women who care
Women who bring the heart and soul into the structures and systems of the world.
Women who are resourced, deeply connected to their feminine essence, the Goddess and the Earth.
Women who are ready to steward a way of living in harmony with nature.
It is time we shift from spending our energy on mere surviving and to refill our life-giving, generous, loving wombs with fresh Life Force
Grounded in the ancient Daoist arts of Yang Sheng — Nourishing Life — Into the Yin is designed to help women address the physical, emotional, and spiritual damage of modern life burnout, as well as reconnect with what truly nourishes our feminine system
This journey is for you if:
Burnout and fatigue have become your normal state of being
You have recently had a child and feel the need to recover and restore your energy
You are in your perimenopause or menopause phase of life and experience discomfort of hormonal changes
You have pain during menstruation and your menstrual cycle is irregular or stunted by the pill
You want to take better care of yourself in alignment with your own rhythms
Taking a much-needed retreat Into the Yin you will be able to:
Identify what drains your energy and uproot burnout patterns
Reconnect with Nature’s cycles and adapt your self-care to the needs of the season
Reclaim your Life Force through ancient energy cultivation practices
Connect to your roots for grounding and clarify your intentions
Nourish the seeds of your dreams in the fertile darkness of the winter season
I would be honored to welcome you onto the path of Yin
This is a journey and initiation every woman should take at least once in their lifetime!
This course is for you if you want to embrace the full power of the way of the feminine and take time to heal yourself through restorative practices.
Welcoming the Winter Queen
Winter season is the most potent time of the year to focus on deep healing of our root energy — Jing. In Chinese medicine, winter is seen as the season of Yin and its dominant Feminine energy is inviting us to journey into the liminal spaces and deep into our bodies to find the medicine that has the potential to rejuvenate and heal our bodies, connect us to a well of inner wisdom and intuition, and rebirth ourselves into greater capacity to create our dream life.
With the right focus, dedication, and practice we can empower ourselves and move through the season of Yin receiving its powerful medicine.
Winter Medicine
silence, stillness, darkness, rest, deep rejuvenation, and restoration of root energy
This is the perfect time to connect with our intuition, dreamtime, subconscious and unconscious layers of our psyche, our ancestral roots, soul purpose, our emotions, and our wombbody consciousness.
Ready to reclaim your energy and receive the gifts of the Goddess?
It’s time to allow yourself to relax into your healing, recover your adrenals, and restore balance
Journey Into the Yin with me this winter season and begin the new year cycle on Winter Solstice with the right intention and focus. By working with our bodies while relating to nature, elements, and seasons, we gain the understanding of how to honor our needs and navigate through demands of modern life with grace and flow.
