at Coolidge Corner (1297 Beacon Street Brookline, MA 02446)
Slow Flow is an integrated yoga class combining Asana (posture) and Pranayama (breathwork) to create the right environment for Dharana (focus). The class will incorporate elements of alignment-based flow, core integration, respiratory system conditioning, as well as restorative poses for down-regulating the nervous system.
This class is intended for practitioners of all levels looking to expand beyond purely postural work. The aim is to provide long term health benefits through strengthening the deep core & improving the resilience to stress by increasing the heart rate variability rate.
This class is contra-indicated for anyone suffering from PTSD and/or severe psychiatric disorders.
