“Restorative Yoga gave me the best night's sleep I've ever had and the next morning I awoke feeling like I was in someone else's body. Of course I was not; I was in my own with a new sense of body." First-time Restorative participant. |

A Restorative Yoga class has the unique ability to leave you feeling nourished and well rested. We start the class with some gentle movements to release tension in the body, a breathing exercise to slow the nervous system, and a guided meditation to relax the thinking brain.
Each posture may be supported by blankets, bolsters and other props that are carefully placed in just the right spot to allow your body to relax deeply. Ideally, each posture gives your body a chance to shed its restlessness and become peaceful in the stillness.
This workshop is excellent for people who are living through a stressful time in their lives, or who want to learn some simple techniques that will reduce feelings of anxiety. It is also a great “break” in the busy schedules that we all live with. We'll practice supported Yoga postures that allow you to experience deep relaxation and peace. Call the Studio, (978) 281-5525 or send an email.
Jon Kabat-Zinn, author of Wherever You Go, There You Are, reminds us that, ”Dwelling in stillness and looking inward for some part of each day, we touch what is most real and reliable in ourselves.”
“This is the best 2 hours to well-being that I know of! Janet plays soft music, leads us to find a way to completely relax in easy and different positions and then reads quotes from texts which are thoughtful and soothing.” B.P.

Cost $60.00 for the week.

Yoga Camp 2008 will begin the last week in May, meeting at Yoga for Health Studio with instructor Janet Green Garrison 4 mornings in a row-Tuesday through Friday- from 7:00 a.m. to 8:15 a.m. Each morning the class will include meditation, pranayama and asanas. Warm-up postures will lead to a 30-minute Flow and class will end with a short, guided deep relaxation. The Flow will be repeated each morning so that by the end of the week, it can be memorized and become a part of your home practice. Practicing Yoga at the same time each day, every day, with the same group of students is an opportunity to deepen your experience of Yoga. In order to maintain the feeling of intensity and community, this will be a pre-registered class with no drop-in attendance. The cost will be $60 for the week. Yoga Camp is very popular so please contact the studio to sign up. Call the Studio, (978) 281-5525 or send an email.
