Restorative yoga is like the cool evening breeze after a sweltering summer day. Opposite to stress and the antidote to switching off the fast pace go-go-go and do-do-do lifestyle, restorative yoga teachers us how to physically rest and mentally rejuvenate. Restorative yoga provides the individual the opportunity to experience the essence of yoga, no matter the overall health. This workshop will touch upon the foundation of restorative yoga and provide instruction on how to use restorative poses during savasana.
Benefits of restorative yoga can be helpful to people experiencing life changing events, to bring the body back to its state of homeostasis. A s the holidays approach and bring additional stress, there's no better time to add a restorative yoga asana to your class or personal practice.
Kerry Escobado, RYT, is a certified Relax & Renew Restorative Yoga Teacher and received her training and certification from Judith Lasater in 2007.
