Free Drop-in Family Fitness Class
Yoga Workshop - April 14
Restorative Yoga + Yoga Nidra for Deep Relaxation and Healing
Asanas (poses) in Restorative Yoga are held for longer durations, using props to support the body. This practice emphasizes the meditative aspect of yoga through which we can find harmony, healing, and a relief from emotional and physical pain.
Yoga Nidra is a form of guided meditation to draw our attention inward, where we move between the states of wakefulness and dynamic sleep. Our body finds its neutral state of equilibrium (homeostasis) and
unconscious aspects of the mind reveal themselves to an innate state of deep, blissful awareness.
Please bring a firm pillow.
