Why Restorative
There are many benefits to practicing this style of yoga. The longer poses offer space for deeper breathing and this aids relaxation. Using props, such as blocks and bolsters, allows the poses to be held more comfortably, making restorative yoga for ANY body regardless of experience or ability. Not only does restorative yoga promote deep relaxation, but it also enhances mood, helps to reduce pain, and even has been shown to improve sleep.
