"The antidote to stress is relaxation."

Rest & Renew

In this 6 week group series we will focus on the season of winter.  As nature rests under a blanket of snow in the northern hemisphere, we too can slow down and relax our mind, body, and minds under weighted blankets practicing the art of relaxation.  Allow yourself to open your body through passive stretching. during the long holds of restorative yoga where your muscles are allowed to loosen deeply. It's a unique feeling because props, rather than your muscles, are used to support your body.

Each class will end with some meditation tips followed by a most delightful guided meditation for your final savasana.
