Spend your Saturday evening slowing down the mind and body to land in a space of inner serenity. In Breathe + Restore Yael Haar will guide you through restorative pranayama (breath techniques) for mental clarity and balance. We will circulate our breath to activate the parasympathetic nervous system and allow our bodies to move into a restorative state. In this gentle softening of the body we reconnect to the original Self, our core energetic state. This will be followed by mantra meditation to stimulate the crown chakra (deep intuition and universal connection) and expand our sensitivity. The session will close with a deeply restorative extended sound bath (30 minutes) including chao gong and sonic chimes. Gong Baths are shown to reduce stress and tension and carry a myriad of health benefits: BENEFITS: - Gong baths have been shown to reduce levels of cortisol (stress hormone) and promote relaxation. - Improved sleep: Participants in gong bath studies have reported improved sleep quality and reduced symptoms of insomnia. - Increased mindfulness: Gong baths can help to increase mindfulness and promote a meditative state, leading to improved overall well-being. - Reduced anxiety: Participants in gong bath studies have reported reduced symptoms of anxiety, including decreased levels of worry and nervousness. - Improved mood: Gong baths have been associated with improved mood and decreased symptoms of depression. - Pain relief: Gong baths have been shown to reduce pain and improve overall well-being in patients with chronic pain conditions. - Improved immune function Give yourself the gift of rest and relaxation.
