Nap & Chat Club is BACK for the autumn 🍂
These extra long, extra nourishing restorative yoga and yoga nidra classes are perfect if you:
🍂 Feel like you live life at a hundred miles an hour and want to learn how to slow down;
🍂 Are tired and need an opportunity to recover;
🍂 Live with chronic fatigue;
🍂 Are recovering from an injury;
🍂 Have given birth in the last five years;
🍂 Spend much of your time caring for others;
🍂 Work hard and struggle to relax.
Restorative yoga is a mostly mat based practice. In this practice we focus on finding a state of release, where we are able to surrender as much as possible to the support of props such as bolsters, blankets and blocks.
You will be guided into a version of the shape that works for your body. Once there, poses can be held for 5-10 minutes or even longer.
The final part of the practice will be yoga nidra. You may be familiar with this. It’s sometimes described as a form of meditation, or a state of yogic sleep.
It’s a deeply grounding practice in which you are invited home to your body, and taken through a series of stages designed to help you access a state of rest similar to sleep.
Once you have experienced the deep rest that can come from this practice it might feel jarring to instantly return to day to day life,
You will be invited to linger for a while after the practice to share a grounding herbal tea and the opportunity to connect with others in the space. There is no expectation or requirement that you do this, but so often this moment of connection is what is missing from our modern, remote and fast paced lives.
I’d love it if you joined me. The final classes for 2024 are on Sunday 3 November and Sunday 22 December, 2.30-4.30pm at Jenna Blair Yoga Wellbeing Centre on Belle Vue Road in Shrewsbury.
The cost is £15 or £20 for each class according to your means and you can book on my website now: https://www.tessadurhamyoga.co.uk
