Restorative Yoga

Restorative Yoga is a therapeutic style of yoga which utilizes props to achieve physical, mental and emotional relaxation. It is a powerful tool to reduce stress and restore health. Practicing poses using props provides a completely supportive environment for total relaxation. The more your body is supported in the poses the deeper the sense of relaxation. Relaxation is a state in which there is no movement, no effort, and the brain is quiet. Aromatherapy, Props, Breathing Tech. & Visualizations provided. No experience needed.

Yin/Yang Yoga
Thursdays at 6:30- 7:30 pm
at Island Healing Chiropractic Center
We begin with the Yin portion of our practice focusing on a release of connective tissues as we surrender into postures for longer periods of time to reach the deeper connective tissues of the joints, increasing the supply of fluids to them, making them less dense and enabling them to stretch appropriately. As a result, we become more flexible.
Then we move into the Yang, a short, gentle practice that stimulates the muscles in the body, encouraging strength and physical health. Yang yoga involves flowing types of movements, joining one pose to another by a continuous movement sequence called a Vinyasa. By utilizing muscle contractions and increasing blood flow, we are able to integrate this openness and awareness we have found in our Yin Yoga into a sense of steadiness and alignment in our Vinyasa practice.
Find comfort and contentment as we perform a complex practice of PNF stretching then passively held floor based poses. Yin works deep into the connective tissues with long holds to reach deeper into the joints, increasing the supply of fluids to them, making them less dense and enabling them to stretch appropriately. Props available for a more relaxed comfort.
