Restorative yoga - conscious rest
Restorative Yoga
Restorative yoga is a relaxation practice and a form of deep, conscious rest. It is a holistic method of resting that supports the well-being of body, mind, and soul.
In restorative yoga, you settle into various resting poses, fully supported by props such as cushions, blankets, and yoga blocks. The aim is not to stretch the body, but to support it so thoroughly that you can let go of physical tension—allowing the mind to follow.
Restorative yoga fosters a mindful, accepting connection with your own body and mind. You remain in each pose for 5 to 30 minutes in a dimly lit setting, allowing for conscious rest amidst the busyness of daily life. Through this rest, your body returns to balance, leaving you with more energy for your everyday life after the practice.
Restorative yoga practices can support you if you are experiencing exhaustion, insomnia, stress, sensory sensitivity, or anxiety, or if you are dealing with menopausal symptoms. It has also proven highly beneficial for those managing chronic pain.
Restorative yoga practices are gentle and suitable for everyone. In private sessions, the poses are selected to suit your specific body and life situation.
You will also receive guidance and tips for practicing at home.
The relaxation lasted longer after the treatment, I was surprised. I look forward to the next time with an open mind.
The instruction was gentle and you made sure that I found a good and relaxed position for each movement. The movements were also really well chosen to suit my current situation. You guide me in a wonderfully gentle and calm way and with you it is always very safe to be exactly as you are.
