The Nature Sessions | Part III: RESTORE

ABOUT

In Part 3 of Just Breathe's Nature Yoga & Hike Series we take time to pause, slowing it down to a quieter practice as we create space to restore, relax, rejuvenate and renew. 

Join us for a morning outdoors as we explore yogic breathing techniques (pranayama), gentle, restorative yoga poses along with an introduction to mindfulness and meditation. Afterwards we head out for a gentle, mindful and silent hike, turning our awareness and focus more introspectively. 

With modern-day demands forcing us to be on the go 24-7, it is important to slow down for deep relaxation. A restorative yoga practice is essential to soothe the parasympathetic nervous system, helping in taking the edge off of our constant fight-flight response.
