Savasana Intensive
Start your Restorative yoga practice today.
Are you ready to transform your relationship to rest?
One breath, taken with awareness, can change your day.
The shift from external to internal focus is not just the key to health (physical, emotional, mental, spiritual health) but it is also the key to un-complicating our lives.
Savasana is the gateway to our inner lives and our inner ease.
Savasana brings body, emotions, thoughts, and spirit together in the present moment.
And when we are present, we feel an effortless clarity about what to do as we live our lives off the mat.
