Restorative Bliss Yoga : Therapy for Life with Skyler Myers

Skyler's teaching focuses on the integration of body and mind through the breath. This Restorative Bliss Yoga practice uses the support of props, like blankets, bolsters, and blocks to encourage a deeper release and provide a completely supportive environment for total relaxation.

Restorative poses help relieve the effects of chronic stress through the use of props, moving the spine in all directions, including a gentle inversion which reduces brain arousal, blood pressure, and fluid retention. We hold the poses longer than in a regular hatha based asana practice. The emphasis is on relaxation, rather than straining.

Restorative yoga is beneficial in times of stress, especially during major life events: change of job, financial strain, marriage, divorce, death of a loved one. These postures can also be done in recovery from an injury or illness.

Your energy will feel restored, as if you just had a nap, but better! The more often you practice this, in conjunction with a more vigorous yoga and/ or physical exercise, the younger you will feel. If health leads to happiness, you will surely be on the path to Bliss! Enjoy your practice!
