Rewind: Restorative / Yoga Nidra
Therapeutic yoga for deep rest.
Thursdays at 5 PM
Known to activate the parasympathetic nervous system, this passive class guides participants into reclined postures softly supported by props and held for five or more minutes each. The practice closes with Yoga Nidra, or “Yogic Sleep,” which is a state of consciousness between sleep and wakefulness. They say 30 minutes of Yoga Nidra = 3 hours of deep REM sleep and can rest the mind, reduce stress, and leave you feeling relaxed and restored.
- About Instructor: My name is Lauren Pidone and am from Washington DC. My love for yoga began as a way to express myself physically, emotionally and energetically. Yoga, meditation and movement have become my greatest tools for healing and strengthening both body and mind from chronic pain and traumas. Inspired by a blend of yoga styles, my classes allow students to cultivate strength, confidence, balance and peace on and off the mat.
