Program Description
In this weekend restorative yoga training created from Tantric Hatha Yoga teachings, and the work of Herbert Benson and Jon Kabat Zinn, participants will gain practical, hands on experience and skills to work with a wide range of populations. The program will include posture practice, pranayama, meditation, mantra, mudra, visualization, and use of props to create a safe/comfortable/healing environment. Participants will leave the training confident in their ability to understand the philosophy and science behind restorative yoga, as well as self-assured in their aptitude to lead their students through a complete restorative yoga practice.
Restorative yoga is a gentle inward form of yoga that invites participants to move towards greater balance, control and participation in their life. The participant’s body is placed in yoga postures that are supported with props. The mind is invited to slow down with the use of pranayama, visualization and mantra allowing the individual to turn inside. A restorative practice is a complement to any yoga practice or other form of exercise and perfect for almost any practitioner looking to experience a deeper state of relaxation and healing than Savasana or sleep. It is also a perfect practice for those recovering from injury or illness or anyone who experiences stress on a daily basis.
We invite yoga teachers from all traditions to join us for this 300-hour level module. This course satisfied an asana requirement or can be used as an elective for Pranakriya’s 300-hour advanced yoga teacher training certification, and provides 20 YA CEUs to all yoga teachers.
