The importance of including restorative yoga in your practice
Restorative yoga is therapeutic on many levels, while poses are more supported they are able to be held for longer periods therefore creating a physiological effect on the body. The parasympathetic nervous system is stimulated putting the body in a deep restful state. There is expansion in the body and diaphragm increasing oxygen and blood supply to all areas of the body revitalising energy sources.

https://us2.campaign-archive.com/?u=4dac56f6d70559c623d6ea383&id=116722861cSpring Equinox September 23rdAfter retreating for winter it's time to open up for spring yoga□□
Hippocrates believed that weather and climate strongly influenced human health.
Spring Fever is not a scientific term but aptly describes the mood and energy changes that we all feel with the light induced hormonal changes. We perceive the world differently, people fall in love more often and we want to spend more time outdoors.
What makes the hypothalamus and other endocrine glands suddenly pick up and start working differently than usual in the spring? Sunlight plays a decisive role in this phenomenon.
The hormones melatonin, serotonin and cortisol affect a person's mood and vitality. The first is produced exclusively in the dark and is responsible for fast falling asleep and quality sleep, and normalizes its rhythms. Serotonin gives a person vigor and good mood. Cortisol has a complex effect on the body: it regulates energy metabolism, the immune system, thinking and emotional background. In the spring-summer period, the following metamorphoses occur with these hormones:
The duration of daylight hours is increased, and as we have already found out, the production of melatonin does not occur during this time.
Sunlight suppresses the secretion of enzymes that metabolize serotonin, and there is more of it.
Contemplating daylight (directly, not through glass or glasses) in the morning and deep sleep at night are critical to maintaining the circadian rhythm of cortisol.
Thus, in the spring, the brain turns into a kind of "joy factory", where there is no place for drowsiness, lethargy and blues.
October - Plunge, Yoga, Breathe
I love a cold plunge and now I’m inviting you to come join me.
2 mornings of a dip in the ocean, yoga and pranayama.
Get out of your comfort zone with an exhilarating dip and deepen your practice with longer yoga sessions on consecutive days.

In the Iyengar method we begin pranayama slowly after students have experience with the asana practice which creates strength and stability.
Pranayama begins a journey inward that can not be approached with force or physical strength.
Preparing the body with supported backbends for pranayama opens the ribcage and intercostal (spaces between the ribs) region to create ease and space for the inhalations.
