One Pose Restorative Practice: Mountain Brook Pose

Welcome to this exploration of Restorative yoga - one pose at a time! Restorative yoga is the practice of being comfortable in passive poses using props like pillows, bolsters, and blankets which support and stabilize your body. The goal of Restorative yoga is to release tension and relax!

This short video (14 minutes) is an introduction to and an exploration of Mountain Brook Pose. In this pose your body is gently draped over props, like water flowing down a mountain stream. Mountain Brook Pose:

· counteracts a slumped sitting posture
· encourages you to gently open your throat, chest, and belly.
· Most importantly, it allows you to rest and relax!
