Description
Are you in need of deep restoration for your mind, body, and spirit?
This class is designed specifically for you. Join us for a transformative session that combines restorative yoga, somatic envisioning, and a sound bath.
Our focus for this class will be on rejuvenating the physical body, calming the mind, and nurturing the spirit. Prepare to embark on a journey of profound relaxation and restoration. During the restorative yoga portion, we will delve into longer-held poses that allow for deep stretches, inviting your body to release tension and find renewed vitality. As we progress through the session, we will reach a pinnacle of ultimate rest and restoration.
Following the movement practice, we will embark on Somatic Envisioning—a body-based thought meditation that unlocks new dimensions of self. This transformative practice will guide you to explore parts of yourself that may have been long neglected, offering opportunities for expansion and self-cultivation.
As we drift into a soothing soundscape, accompanied by the gentle rhythms of drums, chimes, and resonant sound bowls, you will be enveloped in a state of ease and tranquility.This class is ideal for anyone experiencing tension or discomfort in their body and seeking a unique approach to release and relief. Prepare to immerse yourself in a restorative experience that will leave you feeling replenished and revitalized on all levels—mind, body, and spirit.
Restore is considered a somatic class—a journey into the wisdom and potential of your own body. But what does "somatic" mean, exactly? Derived from the Greek word soma, meaning body, somatics is rooted in the belief that we possess innate intuition and knowledge that can be expanded upon. This knowledge is accessed through deep listening to our bodies and nervous systems and letting them act as our trustworthy guides. It is a practice that encourages profound self-awareness and patience.
As your somatic guide, Diamond will facilitate this movement experience by posing thoughtful questions and creating openings for you to explore movement beyond its conventional definition as mere exercise. Instead, movement becomes an exploration of life itself—an opportunity to cultivate autonomy and embrace endless possibilities. Throughout this class, we will support you in navigating the full spectrum of human experience—the weight, the joy, and the exhilaration of the new.
Here, you will embark on a journey to explore the profound connection between your ego and gut, bridging the realms of feeling and knowing.
Join us as we embark on this transformative journey together.
As you step onto the mat, your body will naturally guide the movement, putting its needs at the forefront of your practice. This is an opportunity to attend to the wisdom that resides within you, allowing it to guide and inform your every motion. Together, we will create a space where your body can find its own authentic expression, free from external expectations. Prepare to embark on a transformative journey of self-discovery and embodied awareness.
