Begin your weekend feeling rested and refreshed.

This two hour workshop creates space to let go of your week and reset for your weekend ahead with conscious, deep rest.

Restorative yoga is less about ‘doing’ yoga and more about creating the conditions that let us receive the benefits of yoga – an easeful body, calm mind and open heart.

Through longer-held poses we allow ourselves to drop into the support of bolsters and be wrapped in the softness of blankets. By accessing qualities of stillness, quietness, comfort, weight and warmth we create the conditions for our nervous system to relax. The session closes with a yoga nidra – a beautiful guided meditation that supports deep rest (which we take lying down).
