The third Thursday of each month, from January through April, this evening restorative workshop will offer a gentle asana practice with hands-on assists. Practicing passive stretches, deepening our breath, utilizing props, and staying in these poses for longer helps to release protective holding patterns and to relieve dense connective tissue and muscular adhesions. This very clear, clean time opens us to greater receptivity, tenderness, and listening. It also enhances balance of our whole selves--physical, energetic, mental, and emotional--by supporting the parasympathetic ("rest and digest") nervous system. Students will leave in a state of deep relaxation, prepared for blissful sleep.

$100 for all four; $30 for individual sessions
