Restorative yoga is a yoga practice that is slower, more restful, and more relaxing than a traditional yoga class. Restorative yoga often uses props like blankets, blocks, and bolsters to support the body while holding longer stretches. There is an emphasis on breathwork and mindfulness, and a strong focus on the union of body and mind. Restorative yoga benefits include improved sleep quality, release of muscle tension, and promote an overall relaxed state.
