Full Moon Restorative Yoga & Yoga Nidra

Restorative yoga is all about slowing down and opening the body through passive stretching, deep breathing and long holds of supported yoga poses.

We'll use props (you can use cushions and blankets from around the home, no problem) to support our poses and allow us to completely relax into each posture.

During our practice, we'll be tapping into the 'rest and digest' reaction in the body where it begins to reset and repair. This time is all about relaxing and letting go.

During our Savasana, we'll indulge in a Yoga Nidra (yogic sleep) meditation, where we'll plant a seed of intention and enter an even deeper level of relaxation.

Allow yourself this time to rest, restore and release. Surrender under the energies of our next full moon.

Testimonials

“Nicky’s Yoga Nidra took meditation to a whole new level for me. I felt so relieved of anxiety both during and after. I felt nurtured and refreshed as soon as class ended and, that evening, I had the best sleep I’ve had in months! Thank you, Nicky.”

“Nicky’s Yoga Nidra session came at exactly the right time - probably one of the most stressful weeks of my life. I loved every minute and I feel so refreshed and balanced. Her voice is just made for it!”

“I had my first ever Yoga Nidra session with Nicky and the experience was so calming. I felt so good that I requested a follow-up session as soon as we finished!”
