Inward Escape:
Candlelight Yin & Restorative
With Dawn-Marie Bourgeois
|
|
This session will begin with a yin yoga sequence designed to release tension from head to toe and will set you up for a wonderful release in the restorative yoga portion of the practice. While we look to stress the deeper connective tissues of the body to stimulate healing in our yin postures, restorative yoga invites you to release completely into fully supported postures so that you can relax into a cocoon-like state of healing and well-being.
A great treat for yourself, a loved one, or the perfect idea for a date night with your bestie.
Date: Thursday, March 10th
Time: 7:00 - 8:30 P.M.

Who will benefit from Yin Yoga Teacher Training?
Teachers, students and anyone wanting to deepen their practice, refine their teaching skills and learn more about the benefits of this quiet practice.
As we age, the flexibility in our joints can decrease. Yin yoga is a great way to maintain or improve that flexibility. This practice allows you the time to notice and feel the different physical and emotional sensations, while also adding a meditative aspect to your practice.

Beyond Monthly Yoga Tidbit |

The use of aroma is a valuable component to our yoga practice. Although specific aromas have their unique benefits, generally speaking, the use of aromas is a grounding and calming tool. If you practice at home and have a diffuser, try using it next time you're on your mat. Another option is to breathe as though the aroma of your favourite flower was permeating the air around you. |
