40-Minute Restorative Yoga for Stress & Relaxation – Weekly Intermediate Class 454

This 40-minute restorative class offers a balanced sequence for times when you are feeling tired, stressed or short on time. It provides the benefits of a quieter, supported practice without requiring a lengthy session. The sequence combines reclining chest-opening poses with supported forward bends and other restorative asanas that encourage physical release and a more settled state. Particular attention is given to poses that create space around the chest and diaphragm, encouraging easier breathing and greater awareness of the breath. Supta Baddha Konasana, Crossed Bolsters Viparita Dandasana and Setu Bandha Sarvangasana are included alongside gentle forward bends using support for the forehead. The class will be well suited to periods of increased workload or stress, when energy levels are lower, or whenever a more restorative practice is needed within a busy schedule.
