Crystal Costa, former First Soloist of English National Ballet, leads this 6-part series of short yoga classes, each with a different focus.
This yoga session is designed to help prepare for a restful night's sleep by calming the mind, slowing the breath, and releasing physical tension.
- It begins with a seated or lying position, focusing on deep breathing and releasing tension in the shoulders and jaw.
- The session includes various poses such as child's pose, lizard pose, and restorative bridge, each aimed at promoting relaxation and stretching different parts of the body.
- The practice encourages participants to listen to their bodies, adjust poses as needed, and use props for comfort.
- The session concludes with a restorative shoulder stand and final relaxation in savasana, promoting a sense of peace and readiness for sleep.
