March 20th, 2025

Restoratove Yoga is a style of yoga for healing and restoring health and vitality to our mind and body. We use asana (posture) and pratyahara (breath) to inhibit the stress-response, thus activating the healing and repairing systems for optimal health. Props (blocks, bolsters and blankets) are used to completely support the body on the floor as it rests for a period of time in a healing position. Some of the benefits are: relieve of tension in neck, back, shoulders, helps lower blood pressure, quiets the mind, relaxes side of the body, releases muscle tension, improves sleep and reduces stress!!! *PLEASE ARRIVE EARLY FOR SET UP*
