Yoga to Restore Body and Mind

This practice is focused on restoring the body and mind. Use it when you feel tired or need extra support. We’ll practice some slow somatic movements on the floor and do a few standing and restorative yoga poses that aid in deep rejuvenation.

For this practice, I recommend starting on a soft surface like a blanket and then moving to a yoga mat for the active poses. We will also use a few other blankets, a yoga strap and a chair, but you can also use whatever yoga props and furniture you have around the house. I hope you enjoy!
