Restorative Yoga Workshop
Sundays (23/04/, 21/05/, 18/06/, 16/07/, 20/08/) 6 - 7.30 pm
Teacher: Kat Aydin (Karma Yoga Edinburgh)
If you're feeling the need to hit pause, calm your busy mind and allow yourself to rest in the present moment, then this is the session for you.
Restorative Yoga is a therapeutic style of Yoga that uses props (bolsters, cushions, blankets, eye pillows) to support the body, encouraging deep relaxation. Restorative yoga is best described as - active relaxation. The session is gentle, deep and slow, focusing on opening and stretching the body letting each body to find its own most natural way to open up helping it to restore and relax itself. Restorative Yoga switches you from the sympathetic nervous system (fight, freeze, flight) to the parasympathetic nervous system (rest, relax, and digest response) within 15 minutes. This style of Yoga helps you cope with everyday stress, insomnia and anxiety by using some of the most powerful yet simple poses in Yoga. A 90 minute Restorative Yoga practice is equal to 4 hours of sleep!
This session complements an active Yoga practice and anyone can practice Restorative Yoga, regardless of age, shape or physical condition, even those with no Yoga experience. The poses are designed to be comfortable. Music and aromatherapy enhance the experience, encouraging a total sense of letting go.
PRICE: £20 per person
