Tea & Restorative Yoga

Cha House Bham and Alexis Unger are offering another installment of Tea and Restorative Yoga at Yoga Circle. We pair mindfully-brewed herbal tea with slow stretching, restful supported postures, and journaling to align body, mind and breath as we continue through the introspective winter season.

In the foreword to Judith Lasater’s Relax and Renew, Dr. Mary Schatz writes, “It is imperative that we take care of ourselves, otherwise life’s stresses will make us unable to care for those who depend on us. (…) Make the most of precious private time by doing less through the techniques of restorative yoga. By so doing, we can release ourselves from the destructive forces of chronic stress.”

These are strong words, but Cierra and Alexis have found that taking time to intentionally rest is key to overall wellness as well as to sustainable growth and creativity.
