Join us for a special edition of our Rest + Renew workshop as Kelly Villarreal teams up with Romay Nichols, a local Certified Somatic Breathwork Practitioner, to bring you a unique 2-hour practice that blends gentle, restorative postures with guided, conscious breathing exercises.

Breath is a simple, but profound tool practiced in yoga, among many other healing and spiritual traditions. In the yoga tradition, breath is sometimes understood to be a bridge between the body and the mind. When we bring our focused awareness to our breathing, we can create a space for connection to the deeper layers of ourselves. Restorative yoga offers powerful healing in the invitation of stillness and supported asanas, while somatic breathwork offers a component of deep and cathartic release of stored stress to create a space for profound healing and relaxation. The guided breathing practice combines conscious breathing techniques and rhythmic music to help you tap into your body’s natural healing rhythms and opportunities for release and personal growth.
