Inspired by the wisdom of nature, this restorative yoga class embraces the stillness and darkness of winter season. This restorative yoga class will create a warm and cozy sanctuary for you to burrow into a den of relaxation. Just like animals hibernating in burrows, we'll draw from the cocooning qualities of winter, preserving warmth and promoting internal contemplation.

In winter, yin energy is most dominant. The kidneys and bladder meridians are the key organs of water element season. Resting and conserving your energy during this season will support your overall vitality. When we attune to the short days and long nights, we can make adjustments to our practice. This is a reflective and introspective practice that aligns with the stillness of winter.

You will emerge from this Winter Cocoon of Comfort Restorative Yoga class feeling replenished, grounded, and ready to welcome the approaching seasons with a revitalized sense of energy.

Props Needed: 2 blankets, wall, bolster
Poem: Snow Day by Billy Collins
