Restorative Yoga
A deeply calming yoga practice that helps you relax and recharge after a long day.
Class Description
Restorative Yoga at Shankh Yog is a slow, deeply healing practice designed to release tension and restore the body completely.
Each session uses supported poses held for extended periods, allowing your muscles to fully relax and your nervous system to reset.This practice is ideal for those recovering from stress, illness, burnout, or anyone simply needing deep rest and genuine restoration.
Simran guides every session with a calm, nurturing presence — helping you surrender into each pose and release what your body holds.
Restorative yoga activates the parasympathetic nervous system, shifting your body out of stress mode and into a state of deep healing.Regular practice improves sleep quality, reduces chronic pain, lowers cortisol levels, and leaves you feeling deeply rested, calm, and renewed.
No flexibility or fitness level is required. This class welcomes everyone — beginners, those recovering from injury, or simply seeking deep relaxation.
