Candlelight Yin & Restorative

About this event

Candlelight Yin & Restorative Yoga: Is a deeply relaxing practice that uses props (bolsters, blankets, and blocks) to fully support the body in passive poses. Poses are held for longer periods (5–10 minutes) to activate the parasympathetic nervous system, promoting deep rest, stress relief, and nervous system regulation. There is little to no muscular engagement, making it ideal for those seeking profound relaxation and recovery.. Involves holding poses for extended periods (3–5 minutes) to gently stress the connective tissues, including fascia, ligaments, and joints. Unlike Restorative Yoga, Yin poses create a mild, beneficial intensity to enhance joint mobility and flexibility. This practice encourages deep release, stillness, and introspection, making it both meditative and physically therapeutic. All levels welcome.
