Restorative Yoga w/ Carol Hince

1^st & 3^rd Wednesdays

In Restorative Yoga, props such as blankets and bolsters support you in floor positions. By bringing about deep relaxation, the gentle poses can reduce stress, boost the immune system, and deeply affect other body systems. NIH studies with Restorative Yoga report a decrease in BP, HR, blood sugar, and bad cholesterol and triglycerides.  No prior yoga is necessary.

Carol has taught Restorative Yoga classes for about 13 years. She was trained in Restorative Yoga and certified as a teacher by Judith Laseter. For three years she has taught this class at Kaiser hospital, Santa Rosa for clients referred by their doctors. Her own recovery from shoulder surgery was facilitated by Restorative Yoga.  Carol also has completed level two training in iRest Yoga Nidra meditation which complements Restorative Yoga.

Carol studied Iyengar yoga with Pam Field, was certified in Integrative Yoga Therapy by Joseph LePage, and has studied with Judith Laseter and Richard Miller, PhD. She has enriched her yoga classes with her 40+ years of practicing Physical Therapy with clients from every walk of life.
