Restorative Yoga
Sometimes the best balance for our modern lifestyle is to do precisely the opposite of our usual routine. Restorative yoga works with people who have had specific injuries and helps them rebuild the function where the damage was while keeping the rest of their body mobilized.
Restorative yoga is also for people who have been ill or injured and are in their recovery period – but very specifically, it is for people who are highly stressed and recognize that their levels of stress are affecting their body and their health severely.
Restorative yoga goes beyond remedial yoga. It is the pathway to a very deep and profound self-healing.
Restorative yoga is a kind of yoga practice that relies on props such as chairs, yoga blocks, yoga straps, blankets, walls, etc. The props are utilized to aid the body in yoga positions without exerting too much effort.
The keyword in this kind of yoga is restorative, and the aim is to open your body via passive stretching exercises.
This practice helps the body and mind become still and therefore allows profound changes to occur through the cultivation of surrender and compassion for where you are right now. In restorative yoga, props are used to help place the body in specific postures, and then no more effort or movement is required.
