Restorative Yoga for deep rest
Creating calm, ease, stillness and space within
“Almost everything will work again if you unplug it for a few minutes - including you”
—Anne Lamott
RESTORATIVE YOGA
A deeply relaxing practice using props to fully support the body in gentle longer held poses. Restorative yoga is designed to soothe the nervous system, ease tension, and promote deep rest and recovery.
Restorative Sunday Sessions Monthly 3 - 5pm
Why Do We Need To Practice Rest?
In our fast paced over stimulated lives rest is often seen as a luxury, something that we do when we are asleep. However rest is so much more than sleeping & by practising restorative yoga we are able to access the many benefits that deep relaxation & stillness can offer.
With the use of props we are fully supported in longer held poses helping us move out of the ‘flight or flight’ mode and into our parasympathetic nervous system. This practise can help to lower stress, release long held tension, aid better sleep and invites a deep awareness of body and breath.
These longer sessions begin with gentle movement to help settle into our bodies, followed by breath work then slowly moving into our longer held restorative poses.
