The Art of Rest: Restorative Workshop

  • Wellness@Eight 8 Westcroft Parade, Station Road Hampshire United Kingdom (map)

We are excited to host Mångata Yoga at Wellness@Eight on 01st Dec. This event will be led by Laura Higgs-White, practitioner in Restorative Yoga, who will provide a 90 minute exploration into rest.

Discover how to rest better and activate the body's innate recovery system.

During the workshop we will work on activating the Parasympathetic Nervous System (PSNS) through the use of Restorative Yoga, breathwork and meditation to soothe stress and tension from the body.

Activation of our recovery state or Rest and Digest state is what enables us to lower the heart rate, reduce blood pressure and bring the body back into its balanced state.

As we know unresolved stress over a prolonged period of time can lead to dis-ease in the body and often presents us with unwanted aches and pains.

Come and nurture your body with the use of supported Asanas (physical postures) activating its natural ability to move towards balance and recovery (homeostasis). Shift the focus inwards, otherwise known as the process of pratyahara, using various breathwork techniques and switch over to that recovery state.

We will finish up with a cup of Nia tea and reintegrate before heading back out. Leave with a small gift from us to help you continue your restful journey at home.

All bolsters, blankets and props will be provided. You simply need to bring yourself and something warm and comfortable to wear.

Duration: 90 mins
Price: £25.00
