• RESTORATIVE YOGA RESIDENCY

    A fully immersive experience on the subtle bodies of Kundalini Tantra Yoga through the application of pranayama, massage, meditation, mantra, and restorative yoga. First, this comprehensive and exploratory residency is for your personal discovery. It’s initial aim is to integrate subtle energy practices into a weekly sadhana (a sacred practice of contemplation and connection). For those already a space holder, yoga teacher, and healer this will enhance the tools you’ve already acquired and serve as a way to replenish your vessel.

  • SUBTLE RESTORATION

    Subtle Restoration is a technique of yoga that engages with the chakras, marma points, nadis, and vayus of Prana (life force). It explores the pathway of Kundalini Shakti as well as the physiology of your body through the nervous, endocrine, lymphatic, circulatory, respiratory, and musculoskeletal systems and beyond. Each practice begins with an intention, theme, and focus on the particular area of restoration needed. For this purpose you’ll learn seven specialized sequences that prepare the body for deep rejuvenation in steady stillness, along with the techniques to create your own restorative practice.

  • THE EXPERIENCE

    Subtle Restoration practices include gentle movement, stretching, self-massage, visualizations, energetic mapping, breathwork, chanting, meditation, and supported postures with props and the earth to align with gravity. The experience is like that of an embrace, soft, subtle, soothing, and supportive. With all energy work, nothing is forced, rather we are creating the conditions for Prana to flow freely for profound healing and optimal health. This focus of practice is deeply loving without agendas, instead participants are invited to explore whatever arises in their journey with compassionate inquiry.
