Classes will be geared toward mom’s practice level, with the intention to keep it simple and repetitive, so as to offer opportunities for the littles to participate at their own pace.
Come with a light heart and a sense of humor! A few toys or books for the kiddos are a good idea too.

Restorative Yoga + Yoga Nidra
Yoga nidra is a form of guided meditation intended to facilitate a state of “yogic sleep”, which is not quite sleep, but a trancelike state of deeply relaxed awareness. Its benefits include improved cognitive functioning, enhanced memory, reduced stress and anxiety, better sleep and improved physical health. It is considered a valuable tool for treating insomnia, chronic pain, and PTSD.
Restorative yoga offers us an opportunity to slow down enough to reset our nervous system. It helps us to reestablish connection to the steady ground beneath us, so that we move into our next cycle of life more mindfully and with ease.
This once-a-month offering combining these two deeply relaxing healing modalities is a wonderful digestive to add to your monthly regimen. Gentle enough for all levels of experience and ability.
