Befriending Body & Breath Through Yoga
With Lisa PollardThis 10 day mindfulness-based yoga course is an invitation to listen deeply to the language of sensation inside your body. Day by day, you’ll experience the union of breath and body. As you drop into sensing, feeling and being you'll discover the joys of these simple yogic practices for the the body, heart and mind. Each session prepares the body to open to present moment awareness, and the course progresses from flowing postures to more restorative practices. Those doing this course can expect to see improved circulation throughout the body, reduced stiffness, and increased strength and flexibility.
Open to the wisdom of the body, heart and mind through restorative yoga.
