After creating a safe place for our practice, the first exercise of the workshop was to write “REST” in large letters on one half of the page, and on the other half, make a list of things that are keeping you from resting. A meditation was followed by an introduction to “Supported Child’s Pose” — a key pose in restorative yoga; and, one we hope you can do at home following Dorothy’s directions in this video.

Be guided through extra gentle postures to help quiet the mind and restore equanimity. This class is appropriate for prenatal, postnatal, recovery from injury or illness and for anyone interested in a restorative and healing approach to their yoga practice. Experience restorative poses that cultivate inner peace and a deep sense of renewal. Cost: $35 (all levels)
