As the Winter Solstice approaches, we are called to slow down, relax deeply and sow seeds in the present for a spring yet-to-come. Srīm Yoga offers two classes that facilitate slowing down and connecting with the body to feel rested and rejuvenated. 

Somatic Restore 

SomaYoga is a restorative practice compiled by Yoga North International SomaYoga Institute. This class is for every unique body. SomaYoga methodology takes classic yoga asana and focuses on the subtle body movements, known as somatics, that construct physical postures. By focusing on small somatic movements, we build awareness around areas of sensory motor amnesia, or neuro-muscular disconnect. As awareness around these areas grows, neuro-muscular connection is re-established, which can result in a variety of benefits including relaxed physical state, calm mental state and feeling of grounding. 

Yoga Nidra

Cultivate awareness of deeper states of the mind with Yoga Nidra. A Yoga Nidra class guides the practitioner into a delta brainwave state. If conscious in this state, the practitioner is able to let go of mental programming that no longer serves and replaces it with seeds of growth and awareness. A feeling of deep rest or wonder could be tangential benefits of this practice. 

Srīm Yoga is grateful to provide these practices on the traditional land of the Dakota people. May the gratitude of this season permeate our daily lives. May peace prevail; Om Śānti, Śānti, Śānti.
