Yoga is an ancient system of physical and mindful practices which has a unifying effect on the mind, body and spirit. It helps restore a state of equilibrium and prepares one to take a leap into better living. Yoga is much more than a display of ‘acrobatic’ skill of strength and flexibility. It is a way of life in which the yogis cultivate pure thoughts and positive lifestyle to attain health & harmony. For exalted yogis and wisdom seekers it is more a spiritual practice than a physical one that enables one to cultivate deeper inner awareness. For these masters, yoga is the union of individual spirit with the universal spirit.
Followed in several forms by the yogis of different lineages across the globe, yoga is practiced by the young and old, irrespective of one’s faith, ethnicity or culture. We at Yogayur Bliss invite you to be a part of our individualized yoga classes to experience the sacred strength of yogic healing that allows the yogis to view the journey of yoga with a better perspective. Our classes are mindfully designed to nurture the physical and emotional environment of the yogis, enabling them to experience a whole new dimension of wellness in a less strenuous format.
Restorative Yoga – gain without pain
Restorative yoga is a complete holistic way to connect with the deeper and larger currents of subtle realities that make our body talk to the mind to bring elemental balance and harmony in our stressful daily lives. More receptive in nature, restorative yoga is a powerful companion of modern-day yoga. The reason why restorative yoga is surging popularity is perhaps it is the best practice to achieve enduring peace and greater resilience even in the midst of chaos and inner conflicts that hold us back and eventually cause stress related health care challenges that have wearing effect on our entire nervous system.
We at Yogayur Bliss hold weekly restorative yoga classes in the most inviting environment. Each class includes 5 restorative yoga postures which are intelligently propped and lovingly supported for deeper relaxation. The session is ended with a short meditation to reclaim creativity and abundance through active relaxation. This 60-minute impactful class is passive to all ayurvedic body types and easily accessible to all ages at all levels.
