Restorative Yoga for Anxiety Symptom Relief

Find respite from symptoms of anxiety and stress with this 30-minute restorative yoga for anxiety class. When we're anxious, we often pressure ourselves to calm down right away, as if it was that easy. Instead, we'll move a bit in the beginning with gentle asana, then continue through a series of restorative yoga poses with shorter holds to soothe the restless energy of anxiety. My hope is you feel calmer and more relaxed. Restorative yoga has been shown to slow down one's heart rate, reduce blood pressure, and calm a racing mind.

[@kaiawang9593]

Thank you Caren! Recently had anxiety due to both external chaos and PMS... Grateful I followed this practice!

[@carenhope]

Happy to be here for those moments of discomfort. Good for you for coming to practice! 🙏🏻

[@daisylua]

Hmmm this felt so nice and soothing. I get your reasoning in staying in the poses for a shorter amount of time, and I felt the need to stay much longer (like twice as long), so I paused and stayed, and that felt great. Thank you 🤍

[@carenhope]

Great listening to what you need in the moment. ☺️

[@arielvi]

What a lovely practice, it has comforted and relaxed me so much 🤍 thank you 🤍 Looking forward to do more yummy practices with you! 🥰

[@carenhope]

That’s so nice to hear! Glad this class helped you.

[@user-tz7tg2nd7t]

Would love to have zen/yoga music in background…my mind is so busy i need the background to be soothing.

[@carenhope]

I understand that struggle, and I purposefully don’t have music present in my classes because its absence encourages the mind to relax from additional sensory input. It might take some time, but silence is nourishing for our minds and we tend not to get a lot of it. 😊

[@stephanie6725]

Truly thankful for your channel 💖🙏🏽 helps me a lot. Could you do one on grieving a pet…. my emotional support fur baby has passed away after 10 years of being by my side 💔🕊

[@carenhope]

I’m so sorry to hear about your beloved. I know that pain well. I have a restorative yoga for processing grief class that could help at this time. ❤️

[@terrieisanaudioslave]

I miss you.
