There’s nothing better after a stressful day than a soothing release. Grab a bolster and enjoy Sweet Surrender with us this July! 

Harshness off the mat can show up as struggling on it. Whether it is the inner chatter or forced poses, deep stretching can restore balance. Learn how to lean into resistance so that you find ease in discomfort.

50 min | Easy

What you’ll need

• Yoga bolster, rolled up mat, or pillows

• Yoga blanket, throw blanket, or towel

Benefits

Reduce Chronic Pain

Relaxation improves the mind and body relationship that contributes to chronic pain. It allows one to respond from present ease rather than past tension.  

Less Is More

Unlike hatha or vinyasa, each pose in restorative yoga is held between five to ten minutes and the body is supported with props to facilitate deep stretching. 

Promotes Internal Health

Restorative yoga activates the parasympathetic nervous system which regulates bodily functions including digestion, elimination, and more.

Limitations

Do not register for class if you have one or more of the following health conditions or symptoms:

• depression

• low blood pressure

• recent surgery or accident

Always consult your physician before beginning any exercise program. If you receive medical clearance, inform the instructor at the start of class and practice modifications with props.
