Course Overview
Description
Restore some balance back into your life with the Evening Decompression course. This series of classes contains a repertoire of shorter videos with a restorative focus that will help you to quieten down after a busy day.
Restorative yoga poses can instil a sense of profound relaxation on both a physical and mental level. They help you to identify and diffuse tension habitually stored in different regions of your body. Whilst they are soothing and stress relieving, these poses can also simultaneously help you to feel rejuvenated. As you progress with a restorative yoga practice, you will find yourself quite naturally improving your breath awareness. Hence the final class in this collection focuses exclusively on pranayama.
