Restorative Yoga: Relax and Re-Energise with Annie McGhee

Starts Fri night, although day class Saturday.

As Autumn approaches, take time to slow down, nurture yourself and surrender to a deeper sense relaxation for your body and mind. We’ll use props to support the body into safe and comfortable positions to facilitate deep relaxation and ease. Resting in each pose you’ll be able to calmly observe your thoughts arising and fading, meeting them with kindness and acceptance. Restorative yoga emphasizes relaxation and stillness and is appropriate for everyone. Most poses are done on the floor and held for five minutes or more.

Established 1974, Chenrezig Institute is a centre for Buddhist study, meditation, retreat and practice nestled in the foothills of the Sunshine Coast Hinterland.

Apart from the formal study programmes, Chenrezig Institute is a peaceful, calm and relaxing place to spend a few hours, days or weeks. Stroll along the bush paths, wander in formal garden, espresso in the cafe or a vegetarian meal.
