Restorative Yoga & Sound Bath

Immerse yourself in a Restorative Yoga Sound Bath – a deeply relaxing class where gentle movement, supportive postures, and the intuitive use of sounds nurture body, mind, and spirit. This practice blends restorative yoga with the immersive qualities of a sound bath to facilitate deep relaxation, energetic alignment, and inner peace. 

With the studio softly lit, and the use of supportive props for maximum comfort, allow yourself to fully surrender and let go.  As you rest in each posture, Rafael will intuitively weave a soundscape using overtone-rich instruments: crystal and Himalayan singing bowls, chimes, gongs, tuning forks, and perhaps the gentle resonance of flutes or voice, creating harmonics and frequencies that resonate with the body’s energy centers (chakras), supporting energetic alignment and deep relaxation.  Ending in an extended Savasana (final relaxation) allowing for integration of the physical, mental, and energetic benefits of the practice.  Leave feeling restored, centered, and deeply at peace.  All levels welcome!
