Relaxing is a necessity, not a privilege. Bringing the body to complete stillness allows the mind to rest and let go. When tensions and stress become prevalent in the body, reclining in relaxation and restorative asanas brings balance and health back to the individual.

Conscious Rest moves the system towards peacefulness : deepening natural breath, slowing down the heart rate, reducing blood pressure issues, and relaxing all the muscles in the body. One can relieve fatigue, stress, anxiety and insomnia. Restorative asanas boost the immune system and encourage feelings of serenity and lightness throughout the body.

This 2 hour workshop style class will explore various restorative and relaxation asanas using props for ease and comfort. Details on the physical and energetic benefits will be delivered with clear instructions so that students can invite these postures into their daily self practice.

The workshop will end with a guided meditation.
