Restorative Yoga
What is Restorative Yoga?
Restorative Yoga is a gentle and deeply relaxing practice that uses long-held, passive poses supported by props like bolsters, blankets, and blocks. Unlike Yin Yoga, which also involves holding poses for extended periods to stretch connective tissues, Restorative Yoga focuses primarily on complete relaxation and recovery.
