Overview

Yoga of Being, also known as Restorative yoga, is a Yang-contradictory but Yang-supporting Yin (feminine / passive) approach. In hectic, sometimes frantic lives, Restorative yoga promotes healing. The nervous system is the main topic of attention in Restorative yoga. By engaging in regular practice, the nervous system can emerge from “fight or flight,” restoring equilibrium and improving your health.

Your life will become vibrant and clear due to learning your true path. To hold the therapeutic yoga positions for some time, the body is supported by blankets, blocks, bolsters, and other props. Thus, they are perfect for releasing energy blocks, reducing deep-seated tension, and enhancing consciousness.

It’s essential for anyone who wants to improve their lives, including therapists, bodyworkers, and seasoned yogis.

Restorative yoga

Restorative yoga is a slower and rest-like approach to yoga. It is something that has the power to melt all your tensions. It is more about building deep mental and physical relaxation, rather than building strength.

The Restorative yoga practice requires the practitioner to manipulate the breath, while you are in action. You will also need an intent to focus on. The brain, breath, and your body are primary to the practice.

You will be using props and supports in abundance, as a part of the yoga form. You can also use bolsters and cushions to make things easy. It mainly helps to lengthen or deepen the poses in yoga.

In a typical Restorative yoga class, intermediates who join the course can benefit from the low impact poses. If you have been practicing this form for a while, you probably know that different poses exhibit different reactions. Some people may also experience momentary stress. It can be practiced almost every day for a few minutes.

Everyone can practice this therapeutic and transformative yoga form. Additionally, it can also relieve you, of your stress. Restorative yoga practice is for all those who do not want to participate in the Yang styles of yoga. It is more Yin, but not Yin yoga. Some of the underlying principles of practice are different. However, you do get benefited from this as it alleviates chronic pains from the body.

Pranayama

Restorative yoga includes breathing techniques also called pranayama, as one of the relaxing practices. If you are in the 300-hour Restorative yoga teacher training course, you have probably completed the 200-hour course. So, you are aware of its myriad benefits on stress disorders.

The main emphasis of this practice is on breathing. It creates a calm and safe environment for existence. When you settle into Restorative yoga poses, your main aim is to create relaxing breathing patterns, for overall well-being.

In the realm of Restorative yoga, you have to move your abdomen with the breath. Additionally, you will also keep the upper body quiet during breathing. Consciously relax the quality of breath through mastery in this yoga form. It is like a lullaby that lulls you into a relaxing mode.

Asana

In the Restorative yoga journey, you will learn how to do different poses and set up the same for yourself and others. The child pose is one of the first Restorative yoga poses that come to mind when you talk about Restorative yoga.

Some of the other poses that you can practice are seated cat-cow pose. Legs on a chair pose and legs up on the wall pose, supported child pose, and Shavasana. Restorative yoga is one of the most relaxing yoga forms that aims at deep relaxation and so you must restrict movement or sudden jerks.

Long resting poses lead the body to a state of conscious relaxation. Moreover, you will learn various poses and their background as a part of the course in Gokarna at Shree Hari Yoga School.

Mantra

Restorative yoga is one of the most meditative yoga forms as you hold the asanas for a long time. You will need a lot of focus and concentration to hold the poses with a lot of intent. Mantras also work like magic as they form instant connections with the divine. Mantras also have the transformative power to make things happen out of the ordinary.

At Shree Hari Yoga School, they also stress on mantra affirmations to repair the subconscious mind. So, you can expect healing from the core, while pursuing this yoga form.

Art of teaching

If you want to advance in your career, then this teacher training course in Rishikesh will be the right one for you. Moreover, you can teach yoga to all students of all ages, and also address all kinds of injuries, accidents, or surgeries.

After doing the foundation course, your inquisitiveness will increase and so you will feel like knowing further about the Restorative yoga practice. Moreover, each one of your yoga classes will be unique and you will be tasked with addressing specific body issues and ailments.

Restorative yoga can heal and cure. So, many of you may confuse it with therapy. When you relax in the Restorative yoga poses, the parasympathetic nervous system is deeply impacted. It can be complementary to your active yoga practice, if you are of fair build.

As a teacher, you have to teach the students the correct use of props and their set up. You must adjust the poses, according to the students. Proper adjustments will bring in huge relaxation, which calms the nerves. Nerves are often responsible for the realization of pain symptoms. Principles of demo are also important as a part of the course.

Anatomy and physiology

You will learn about the body processes of the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system. The pain signals are received by these body systems, so you need to understand them, in order to stop the pain-related symptoms. That is how restoration occurs. You must study anatomy and physiology, to understand body systems.

Additionally, you will be tasked with healthy movement patterns, prevent injuries, and also increase the energy of the students, whom you may handle. So, these scientific lessons are important and are omnipresent like in most yoga forms.

Philosophy

Restorative yoga is the brainchild of B.K.S. Iyengar. He formed it to give rise to a subtle relaxing style. The main aim of this Restorative yoga style is to restore your health, based on yogic principles, that are practiced in a subtle way. You will follow the Hatha Yoga Pradipika as a part of the course, to understand the practices. Iyengar yoga style provides systematic support to the field of Restorative yoga.

Sound healing

Sounds play a huge role in the journey of Restorative yoga. Restorative yoga, meditation, breath, and sounds go hand in hand. The amalgamation of all four creates tremendous benefits for the body in general. Sounds have this inherent tendency to uplift the mood and also navigate the brainwaves. The effects include reduced stress, transformation in the mind, and deep physical healing.

Shatkarma (cleansing)

You will study the Shatkarma kriyas as a part of the course. No matter which yoga form you practice, it forms the very basis of a free body and mind. You need a clean body to gain acceptance in the other realm. That is what these cleansing techniques do for you.

Mudra

Mudras are like one of the sacred accompaniments and a part of restorative poses. They will help you to alleviate your practice.

Bandha

The body and mind become stronger when you use bandhas in Restorative yoga. These bandhas or energy locks have the power to restore Pranic balance as well. They have hormonal implications, which further alleviate your practice.

Yoga sequencing

When you start the Restorative yoga practice, you just need to get hold of a bolster or a cushion and set out an hour for yoga practice. Staying in each one of the poses for 3-5 minutes will give a boost to your internal health as well. The sequence in the Restorative yoga classes start with a restorative heart opener, restorative twists, supported groin stretch, or any other pose.

After you are done with a particular sequence, you have to relax and then meditate. The sessions may be somewhat different, depending on the level of relaxation that you are looking for, or the issues that you or your student faces.

Schedule

At Shree Hari Yoga School, you may start with pranayama and meditation. Breakfast comes next. After you are back from the break, you may warm up a bit with sun salutations, so that there is no stiffness in the muscles as well as the joints.

Restorative yoga practice follows, after which theory classes, on anatomy, physiology, and general philosophy are scheduled. After you have your lunch, you can do some self-practice and experience the same. Moving on, you can attend sessions on mantra chanting and sound healing, that are an important accompaniment for the course.

The 300-hour course in Gokarna will help you to experience physical, mental, as well as emotional relaxation.
