Class: Restorative Yoga Level One Certification

In a culture obsessed with acceleration, Restorative yoga helps us discover the joy of going slow, paying attention, and being still. When we do, we give our bodies time for nourishment and holistic healing to occur. It is a radical practice of deep rest and listening to the rhythm of our own hearts and energy. This certification is learning how to give this joy to ourselves and others.
