Restorative yoga is an incredible way of helping to heal the whole body and mind. 

In activating the para-sympathetic or relaxation response it helps to balance the whole nervous system and sets up the whole body for deep healing, growth and repair.

In a restorative yoga class you will hold postures anywhere between 3-5 minutes or even longer.

All of these are done with full support from pillows, blankets and cushions to allow the body to fully relax.

So bring a lot of props with you to each class, maybe even an eye mask for deeper relaxation. 

It is best practices in a calm, quiet and dark environment. 

You can practice a restorative class as often as you need it, as often as your body craves it, as often as it feels good – but definitely at least once a week! 

Even if you only have time for 1 or 2 poses for 10 minutes a few times a week – it can help!

Your body and mind will thank you for it. 

You don’t have to have any experience to join this class, and it is great for those painful flare days.
