Restorative Yoga benefits

Why Restorative Yoga? Restorative Yoga is based in traditionally yoga postures that were in time modified and adapted by B. K. S. lyengar at the Ramamani lyengar Memorial Yoga Institute in Pune, India.

Unlike other Yoga types where the focus is in movement, restorative exercises encourage stillness. Through breathing and the support of the props the muscles begging to open and relax and the mind follows it.

Restorative Yoga focuses on relaxing the body in restful postures. Note that 'rest' is different than sleep. Rest provides the body an opportunity to renew and heal. Countless studies have proven the physical and emotional benefits of this.

At Yoga Pilates Lusk, we run Restorative Yoga Workshops at Springtime and Autumn. 

The aim of the practice is to provide you with basic tools that when practiced regularly could help you to heal the effects of chronic stress. During these 2 hours we will be using different props such us bolsters, cushions, belts and blankets that will support our bodies and allow deeper opening and relaxation.
