Restorative Yoga
Restorative yoga, also known
as “active relaxation,” uses props to
support the body in poses to allow for
complete relaxation. A restorative practice
releases energy blockages in the nadis
(energy channels) more passively than
traditional asanas and can be especially
useful when experiencing stress, fatigue, or
when healing from an injury. Restorative
yoga produces the “relaxation response”
which can regulate brain waves, digestion,
and blood pressure.
