Restorative Yoga Retreat
Nora Benian (Sundari)
Registration is closed for this course.
Tuition: $165
Come unwind, shed layers of tension, and rejuvenate during a 2-day Restorative Yoga Retreat. Restorative Yoga is a very gentle yoga practice designed to calm the nervous system and create overall health in the body. Restorative Yoga is the yoga of non-doing, and focuses on effortlessness and ease, using well-placed blankets, bolsters, yoga straps, and chairs to safely support the body in various postures. When the body is fully supported, it will naturally relax, releasing deeply held tensions which invokes a natural state of balance, regeneration, and healing rest. This retreat is open to all and an invitation to come back to yourself, dive inward and get comfortable in your body.
Step into the New Year with ease and comfort.
