Restorative yoga is a practice that helps the body integrate and heal. This is accomplished by triggering a cascade of events that bring the body into a state of healing. Rest and relaxation are key elements to healing and there are specific processes that take place in the body to help us rest and relax as well.
Restorative yoga encourages the body to activate these processes which we call the calm cascade.
The intention is to promote the deepest level of relaxation and alleviate the effects of stress in our lives. Restorative yoga differs from other forms of yoga, in that the goal of restorative yoga is not to stretch or strengthen muscles, but to tap into the body’s natural resources to establish self-regulation and homeostasis, or equilibrium.
Class starts with a talk on a theme (e.g. new moon, loving kindness, etc.) and how the class's instruments deliver said theme. After the theme is introduced and discussed, we then go into a grounding visualization meditation which will drop us into our state of meditation (the place between awake and sleep). In this space, the sounds will begin and whatever arrives is meant to be. Class ends with silence (savasana) to balance and integrate the vibrations of the bath.
