Restorative Yoga is a yoga practice that seeks to achieve physical, mental, & emotional relaxation, focusing less on stretching and more on softening & opening. When the body is stable and safe, deep relaxation results. This deep relaxation allows the nervous system to release the grip of “fight or flight” and move into Rest-oration, hence Restorative Yoga. It is especially useful when you need to eliminate fatigue, stress, and burnout that result from your daily activities. While some restorative yoga poses are beneficial to the entire body, others target specific parts of the body, such as the heart, the lungs, or the nervous system.

In this session, we’ll focus primarily on the hips and low back, really allowing us to let go of the “drive”, the constant forward pressure and movement we feel compelled to in our day-to-day living.

This class is a free offering. Please come and let yourself unwind…from the day, from the summer, from the last 8 months. Bring whatever props you have.
