About this Event

Rest & Reset is more than a yoga class—it’s a sanctuary for slowing down, softening tension, and reconnecting to your vitality.

If you're experiencing stiffness, fatigue, brain fog, aches, or shifts in weight and energy, this class offers a compassionate alternative to pushing or powering through. Rooted in the timeless wisdom of yoga, Rest & Reset invites you to meet this season with ease, curiosity, and care.

Each session begins with gentle breath awareness and a short, guided meditation to calm the nervous system and clear mental clutter. From there, we move into slow, supported postures designed to release joint stiffness, soothe tired muscles, and improve circulation. Bolsters, blankets, and chairs are thoughtfully used so every body feels supported, safe, and at ease.

The practice concludes with Yoga Nidra, often called yogic sleep—a deeply restorative guided rest that allows the body to replenish energy while the mind settles into spacious clarity. Through layers of stillness, mindful movement, and deep rest, stress melts away and the body remembers how to restore itself.
