Welcome Shabbat on Friday evening February 24 with this special yoga event. This class is an opportunity to embody your Shabbat practice and to make space in your busy life for rest, mindfulness and ease. I will guide you through a series of gentle, supportive restorative yoga poses while Harlan Silverman plays meditative cello music to encourage a deeper surrender to rest.

The Jewish practice of Shabbat is a radical invitation to prioritize rest. When we intentionally rest, we make space for connection with ourselves and the divine. We choose for that period of time to let go of the external, materialistic striving, and to open to what is alive in the present moment. Restorative yoga is a passive, spacious practice that encourages deep relaxation of the body and mind. Benefits of this practice can include calming the nervous system, stress reduction, better sleep, and improvements to mental wellbeing.

Please bring your own mat - they will not be available to borrow at the studio. I would encourage you to bring an eye pillow or eye mask (or alternative). All other props will be provided. Wear cozy comfortable clothes! Taught by Amanda Davidowitz, local Jewish yoga teacher (www.InspiredHeartWellness.com).
