The Yoga of Allowing Life: Deep Rest Yoga Workshop

Amidst the rush of summer, gift yourself three hours to slow down, breathe deeply, and reconnect with yourself.

This workshop invites you to explore one of yoga's most compassionate teachings: while pain is an inevitable part of life, our resistance to it often creates even more suffering. Through accessible yoga philosophy, deep rest practices, and community reflection, we'll explore what it means to soften into life - not with resignation, but with presence.

Accessible Yoga Philosophy Together we'll explore the kleshas - the inner patterns described in the Yoga Sutras that contribute to our suffering. Rather than studying philosophy as abstract ideas, we'll discover how these teachings can help us understand our everyday thoughts, emotions, and relationships with greater clarity and compassion.

Deep Rest Practice We'll settle into a yin-inspired restorative practice with long-held, fully supported postures and gentle somatic elements woven throughout. This practice invites the body to soften, the nervous system to settle, and the mind to grow quieter, allowing the teachings to be experienced - not just intellectually understood.

Reflection & Sangha We'll close with guided journaling and a gentle sharing circle, practicing compassionate reflection and deep listening within a supportive community.

This workshop is for you if you find yourself...

• Feeling stretched thin by the pace of everyday life.
• Longing for deeper rest - not just physically, but mentally and emotionally.
• Curious about yoga beyond the poses.
• Wanting practical wisdom to help navigate life's inevitable ups and downs.
• Drawn to gentle movement, meaningful reflection, and genuine community.

No prior experience with yoga philosophy or restorative yoga is needed. You're welcome exactly as you are.

• Simple philosophical tools to support you through life's challenges.
• Practices you can return to when you feel overwhelmed or disconnected.
• A deeply rested body and a calmer nervous system.
• A greater sense of steadiness, self-compassion, and connection.
