Restorative Yoga Certification Module

Restorative Yoga is for the experience of safety in stillness. It is to allow our whole selves: body, mind and energy body to drop deep into our parasympathetic nervous systems and receive the rest that we need for recovery both nourishing and nurturing. Yet, it is one of the most difficult practices, that just like meditation, so many struggle with. Together we will learn how to use props and guided meditation practices to provide utmost care and attention for your students on this journey of self-care.

This training is included in the 300-hour YTT certificate, to become a certified 500-hour Yoga Teacher.  

In this module we will review techniques to help guide your students into this restful state, making this a highly sought after class on any schedule.
