Bliss Workshop – Restorative Yoga in Sydney, 28th October 2017

Join is for 2 1/2 hours of Bliss in this Restorative Yoga Workshop.

Restorative yoga teaches you how to turn off the fight-or-flight responses in your brain, and tune into the other half of your autonomous nervous system: the half responsible for calming the body and switching our burned out brains back to baseline.

When we are able to control our responses to perceived threats, we reduce our stress level. And when we reduce our stress level, we increase our longevity, and our happiness.

What you can expect in a restorative yoga class:
Many students will declare that their favorite yoga pose is the final relaxation, Savasana. Imagine an entire class of Savasanas! In every restorative session you will learn pranayama (breathing) techniques, meditation exercises, and the art of active, conscious relaxation.

Classes are suitable for all levels and all ages of practitioners. Props are used to adjust the body into a completely relaxed position.
