In a restorative yoga practice, the focus is not on stretching or
strengthening but on releasing. We release tension in the muscles and
gently stimulate the organs through long-held poses designed to support
and comfort. To achieve comfort a variety of props such as blankets,
blocks, bolsters, sandbags, and eye pillows may be used. Restorative
yoga allows us to relearn the art of relaxation while developing the
skills and abilities to self-soothe. It enhances our healing capacity
through helping us regulate the stress response and re-balance the
nervous system.
