Wear your PJ’s or comfiest yoga clothes. Our time will be spent gently moving through some seated yoga postures- think stretching and resting!
If you journal, some find it helpful to have a journal nearby. A small candle or essential oil diffuser can also be a nice touch!
Please try and be in a quiet room and limit distractions and multitasking as much as possible. If you can, let yourself be first for this hour.
I teach trauma-informed yoga and encourage you to notice your own body and learn to listen to what feels okay and well for you. I will talk you through and demonstrate all postures and shapes taken in class. This is your yoga practice, and you are encouraged to move however you want and need.
