Yoga Nidrā is a deeply restorative practice, perfect for the times we’re living in. The practice helps us to access our profound inner wisdom.

When we regularly take the time to cleanse the windows of our inner perception, we can see with new eyes. Our normal waking-state perception of ourselves is usually not equipped to realize how much joy exists inside of us. And joy is profoundly nourishing & healing.

Students will be guided in this ancient deep relaxation technique that helps one to enter an altered, deeper state of consciousness ~ and experience true, deep, rest.

Slow flow yoga is a breath-based, mindful movement practice that brings us home in the present moment. A flow that invites us to move with more attention and intention, learning how to balance strength, receptivity and fluidity while we cultivate an intimate and dynamic relationship with our breath, opening up to more life energy. Various tools from the yoga tradition are integrated in each session (mudras, mantras, pranayama, meditation, and relaxation technique) The practice allows a sense of harmony to emerge, connecting us more deeply to our inner being and the world around us.

This yin/restorative class is slow and meditative and will help you switch off and tune in. During this gentle guided practice, emphasis is placed on softening and releasing through the body and mind, all the while observing the gentle rhythm of the breath. Longer held poses also invite us to bring our gaze inwards into a deeper meditative state which activates the parasympathetic nervous system calming the body and lowering stress and anxiety.

At the core of these sessions is the idea that we can heal ourselves through relaxing mentally, physically and spiritually.
