To rest, relax & restore is essential to everyone, especially at times when anxiety & stress levels are high. Deep rest is to experience absolute relaxation, where there is effortless inner stillness, quietness & peace. Restorative Yoga, teaches the art of resting with awareness by supporting the body so you can hold poses for longer & allow the body to open with passive stretching. When we rest with awareness, we can often notice physical & mental areas of tension that we were unaware of before. As a consequence we can adjust, release & reset to benefit mind & body. Measurable results of deep relaxation include the reduction of blood pressure, the increase of the “good cholesterol” levels, improvements in digestion, insomnia, stress & depression & the reduction of muscle tension. This workshop will teach you breathing practices & poses to find deep rest.
