The Power of Healing

25-Hour Yoga Alliance Certified Yoga Restorative Training

This event has already passed. Please check out our Yoga Schedule and all our other offerings. 

In this training, you will be exploring powerful restorative yoga poses and learn to relax, rejuvenate and heal yourself and facilitate others to experience a deep state of relaxation.

The ancient rishis left us so many techniques to heal our body, energy, mind, intellect and ego, so we can tap into our higher self and live a vibrant life to our fullest potential. Modern day yogis and yoginis adapted these techniques to make yoga more therapeutic and healing for our often overworked and over stimulated senses, organs and systems.

This training is perfect for teachers looking to add more restorative elements to their classes as well as practicing students looking to enhance their personal routines. 

Curriculum:

  • Stress, disease and the nervous system (sympathetic and parasympathetic)
  • Koshas (sheath) – five layers of our physical and subtle being
  • The need for relaxation on a physical, emotional and spiritual level
  • Powerful effects of restorative yoga
  • Essential restorative poses (heart opener, forward folds, twists, hip openers, inversion, etc.)
  • How to use props to support restorative yoga
  • Sequencing for a restorative class 
  • Tools to facilitate and guide others into deep relaxation
  • Pranayama & Meditation
  • Yoga Nidra
