Stone Wave Serenity Flow + Unwind
Beginner Friendly
All Levels
(No Experience Required)

This all levels class is designed to help you quiet the mind and down regulate the nervous system.

What is down regulation? Down regulation is deliberately practicing shifting your nervous system from a sympathetic (fight or flight mode) to a parasympathetic (rest and digest mode) state. When we can come into a parasympathetic state we allow our body to rest and heal.

What to expect?
 We will open with 5-10 minutes of breath-work then move slowly through fluid vinyasa style sequences for about 30 minutes to release any energy and end with at least 15 minutes of supported shapes that will move you into savasana. Occasionally Yoga Nidra, also known as, 'yogic sleep', will be offered.

When we're able to release energy before settling we may discover that finding stillness becomes more accessible.
