Restorative yoga practice helps people relax and rest deeply. One should enter the class with no preconceived notions of what it should feel like or look like.Practice intuitively, letting your breath be your guide.Restorative yoga focuses on the use of restful postures supported by props to experience relaxation in a wakeful state. This kind of rest is different than sleep, and it provides the body an opportunity to heal and replenish energy stores.The use of props facilitates a deeper sense of relaxation while in the poses.Although all are not necessary for every class, essential props for restorative yoga include yoga blocks, straps, blankets, bolsters, balls, chairs, a wall, and an eye pillow. ​ BENEFITS: Restorative yoga is used to trigger the parasympathetic nervous system, which is responsible for balancing the body. By stimulating this system, you experience a lower heart rate and blood pressure.This also helps stimulate your immune and endocrine systems in healthy way. When you experience stress or feel overwhelmed, it's the parasympathetic nervous system that restores balance.The deep relaxation response elicited by restorative yoga also results in benefit to internal organs. EXPERT INSIGHT: Dr. David Spiegel, author of "Living Beyond Limits," says that medicine is now learning that physical problems, such as high blood pressure and heart disease, can be influenced by psychological interventions, such as relaxation training, which includes restorative yoga. Spiegel reports that "mind and body are connected and must work together, and this should be a powerful asset in treating medical illness."
