Candlelit Restorative Yoga & Sound Bath

4 All Yoga Studio (Upstairs from Marconi Centre)

$30 per participant

Unwind. Release. Rebalance.

Step into a tranquil sanctuary lit by soft candlelight and let your body and mind melt into deep relaxation.

This 90-minute experience begins with a gentle restorative yoga practice. Supported by bolsters, blankets, and blocks, you’ll ease into soothing poses held for several minutes, allowing layers of tension to gently unravel.

From there, sink into stillness and immerse yourself in the calming vibrations of crystal singing bowls and delicate chimes. The sound bath is designed to release stagnant energy, soothe the nervous system, and help you return to a state of inner harmony.

Perfect for:
Anyone feeling overextended, anxious, or in need of profound rest and reset.

Benefits may include:
✔️ Nervous system reset
✔️ Deeper, more restful sleep
✔️ Reduced tension and greater flexibility
✔️ Elevated mood and peace of mind

✔️ Relaxation

What to Bring:

• Wear comfortable, cozy clothes — soft layers, warm socks… even pajamas are welcome!
  
• Bring anything that makes you feel safe and supported (eye pillow, scarf, special stone).
  
• Eat lightly beforehand. Since we’ll be lying down much of the class, a full stomach might not feel comfortable. Aim to finish eating at least an hour before class.
