Optimum Relaxation with Restorative Yoga
Has life made it difficult for you to relax, is your mind constantly racing, is your nervous system overstimulated?
Practicing restorative yoga helps to eliminate fatigue and stress that accumulates in our daily routines. Our bodies become less vulnerable to stress-related illnesses, helping us achieve optimum health. Restorative yoga activates the parasympathetic nervous system, enabling automatic control of the body. The regular nervous system is at rest, and the muscles become more relaxed.
Restorative yoga is derived from a yoga style that was invented by B.K.S Iyengar, widely acknowledged as one of the greatest Yoga masters. It seeks to achieve physical, mental and emotional relaxation. A regular practice provides healing for the body and the mind. It also helps recover from illness and injury.
