Restorative/Yoga Nidra with Mark Hunsicker and Christy Mickle Saturday, June 29th 2pm-4:30pm
Join Christy and Mark as they guide you through an afternoon of restoration and relaxation like no other! Open to all levels.
Give yourself the gift of letting go with Restorative Yoga and Yoga Nidra combined into one class. Christy will use props to facilitate deep relaxation with a handful of restful postures. Mark will guide you through a practice designed to bring forth a deep sense of peace and renewal where your only requirement is to let go to the sounds of music and voice. Both practices will allow the body to heal and replenish itself by stimulating the immune and endocrine systems, lowering the heart rate and blood pressure, and triggering the parasympathetic nervous system, which calms and restores the body. By doing less instead of more, allow your inner healing capacity to activate and uncover the deepest core of yourself, the essential wisdom within. Every level welcome.

The following are topics addressed during the course that will assist with your own life practice on and off the mat:
Stress Less & Increase Happiness: Connect with the flow, and other effective techniques that have been researched in the study of happiness
The Five Elements of Nature on the Mat: Use the elements of earth, water, fire, air, and ether as a tool to create nature’s balance in each pose and practice
Pranayama: Integrate the use of prana (life force or breath) exercises to create immediate increase in body strength, flexibility and positivity.
All levels are welcome; however some yoga exposure will be helpful. Join our series that promotes community connection and support between participants and the teacher. If you need to miss a class, we will do our best to inform you as to the yoga topics that you missed so that you will be prepared for the next class. Please keep in mind that it is challenging to actually “make-up” classes; therefore if you do not show up to class you will lose the missed class.

Restorative Yoga with Christy Mickle…2nd & 4th Saturday of every month 3pm-4:30pm
Restorative Yoga is about learning to relax deeply, residing in stillness, reflection and introspection. In this practice we use blankets, bolsters, cushions, pillows and blocks to completely support the body in restful postures, encouraging the body to relax, open, renew and heal. As the body releases deeply, the mind grows quiet and reflective, bringing your whole being into a more balanced, natural healing state.Restorative yoga is useful when you are fatigued, stressed from daily activities, experiencing major life change events, suffering from stress, cancer, menopause, injury, depression or other challenges or in perfect health but desiring more energy and better and more restful sleep. Restorative yoga is known to improve health, lower blood pressure and cholesterol, improve, sleep and ease anxiety ,stimulate metabolism and boost the immune system, and reduce stress (which is known to be a major contributing factor in over 95% of illness). Come prepared to lose track of time, let go of worries, breathe deeply and relax, quiet your mind and uplift your spirit, and leave feeling refreshed, peaceful and balanced.Open to All Levels.$12
