Description

Find contentment, both in our practice and in our lives, off the mat. How can our yoga practice help to find the state of happiness? 
Stretch, be still, meditate, and breathe.

Restorative yoga is a restful practice that holds yoga poses (asanas) for a longer duration using props like yoga blocks, blankets, and bolsters. Through the use of props for support, many of the postures are held almost effortlessly. 

When the body and mind are relaxed, tension is released. Become aware of sensations and thoughts that may arise.

The benefits of restorative yoga are similar to the many benefits of other styles of yoga, including:

  • Increased relaxation
  • Better sleep
  • Improved well-being
  • Better mood
  • Reduced pain
  • Gentle on the body

Bolsters, blocks, and straps are provided. Please bring a yoga mat, a blanket or two, a hard pillow, and a bottle of water. Don't forget your warm socks!
