The moments when we need to restore may follow the tension from a challenging event, or the demands of everyday work and life.
For some, it could feel like exhaustion, depletion, or lack of motivation. For others it could show up in different ways or shift moment to moment. It is important that we honor these feelings and create the space for ourselves to recover. The practices found here are longer in length and cultivate a sense of spaciousness, relaxation, and restoration.
