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