Yoga 

 

Restorative Yoga is great for kids and adults alike

 

What is this?

 

A restorative yoga sequence typically involves only five or six poses, supported by props that allow you to completely relax and rest. Held for 5 minutes or more, restorative poses include light twists, seated forward folds, and gentle backbends. Most restorative practices are based on the teachings of B.K.S. Iyengar.

​

Why Restorative Yoga?

Restorative yoga is good for the whole person, agrees Sonya Zappone, a registered yoga teacher. “By consciously stopping your body, your brain slows down, too. It can be a great meditation practice.”

​

Here are 3 good reasons to enjoy restorative yoga.

​

1. Reduce anxiety

The deep relaxed state you attain during restorative yoga allows you to physically release accumulated stress and anxiety in the form of tight muscles and a busy mind. You’ll leave the yoga session feeling calm and peaceful.

​

2. Increase flexibility

The prolonged poses of restorative yoga enable you to release the tensions your body holds. This can make you more limber and flexible.

​

3. Heal emotional pain

Restorative yoga is a meditative experience that may result in some soul-searching. “In addition to getting deep into the muscles, restorative yoga gets deep into the emotions,” says Zappone. “When your mind slows down, you may start to feel various emotions.”
