Lifestyle Bookazine Restorative Yoga First Edition Back Issue

If you already do yoga, you’ll know how good it can make you feel. Calm yet focused, relaxed yet energised, strong yet supple. Restorative yoga can deepen these rewards and, incredibly, you barely need to move a muscle!

In Restorative yoga, demanding poses and dynamic sequences are replaced by simple, supported poses that enable deep, profound rest. Not only do the poses feel blissfully relaxing. By slowing down your breath, lowering your heart rate and quieting your mind, Restorative yoga triggers physiological processes that restore, heal and rejuvenate body and mind. This tried-and-tested therapy is proven to ease stress, beat back pain, improve breathing problems and aid digestion, among many benefits. And, the best thing about Restorative yoga? Anyone can do it whatever their age, fitness level or state of health.

In Restorative Yoga, you’ll find an expert, step-by-step guide for home practice. Don’t worry if you don’t have props – we’ll show you how to use household items such as pillows and blankets. Just follow the instructions to the poses, sequences, breathing exercises and meditations and you’ll soon have your very own selfhealing sanctuary.
