This Yoga class is a sweet and gentle blend of Yoga Styles ending in a 10 to 15 min relaxing and restoring Yoga Nidra and designed for the ones among us with busy and active lifestyles especially if you have been feeling a little tense or pressed for time.
In the first part of the class, we are starting down on our mats, holding poses for slightly longer periods of time, targeting the connective tissues of the body to help release deeply stored tension. It is often experienced as deeply meditative, as it invites the practitioner to completely release and let go.
From there we will be moving slowly up with a breath-based gentle Vinyasa flow to build mind/ body strength and flexibility, challenging balance and concentration, and harnessing that energy to promote inner stillness and peace.
At the end of the class of about 50 min there is a choice to quietly leave after a short savasana or stay for a brief 10 to 15 min Yoga Nidra , which is the practice of yogic sleep , a guided meditation technique, which utilizes various practices of body, breath, mind, energy & spirit to draw individuals into deeper and subtler states of being where total relaxation and peace and profound healing becomes available. A nourishing and grounding practice, that does not require any extra preparation or knowledge, Nidra is the perfect way to round out your practice and return to your busy life peaceful, rejuvenated and restored.
This class is suitable for anybody basic fitness level and up, who does not have any contraindication to exercise or practice yoga. Throughout the class suggestions for modifications will be provided for you to meet your body where it is at in the present time.
Please bring a mat and a blanket / towel and a water bottle and any props you might have (Blocks / bolsters, to support your practice when called for.

Sessions are an infusion of a guided rest meditation called yoga nidra along with gentle sound healing added at times to soothe and bring additional calm.

This is a deep meditation where you lie down (or you can sit). These sessions help to bring relaxation to your mind and body and de-stress from your busy life.
