Restorative yoga is a gentle and therapeutic form of yoga that focuses on relaxation and rejuvenation. It involves holding gentle poses for a period of time while using props such as blankets, bolsters, and blocks to support the body. It can help to reduce stress, relieve tension, and promote well-being. It allows the body to fully relax, improves circulation, supports the immune system, and enhances overall physical and mental health. For people recovering from illness or injury, it provides a gentle and supportive way to stretch and strengthen the body.

For a restorative yoga class Rob uses two wooden or plastic blocks, two thinner foam blocks, an 8 foot yoga strap, a yoga blanket and a yoga bolster or two. These are not essential but recommended for a better experience. They can be bought on the resources page here.
