Breathing practices have been a staple in my life since I went through my yoga teacher training in 2001. While I often switch up practices depending on the season and my current state of balance, there is a practice for every situation. If I need more energy, I may turn to vigorous practices; if I need cooling, I turn to cooling practices. And when I need to calm my nervous system and prepare for sleep in the fall and early winter, I turn to soothing, Vata-calming practices.
This class is suitable for complete beginners and experienced practitioners alike. This 60-minute live online workshop offers step-by-step instruction in three simple Ayurvedic breathing practices that are especially beneficial for calming Vata dosha. We will move through a guided practice session and finish with a relaxing sleep meditation. You will leave with a simple, repeatable routine you can easily practice at home whenever you need support for peaceful, restful nights.
Guided Evening Breathwork & Restorative Sleep Practice
Bring time-tested breathing practices (Pranayama) for rest into your evening routine to settle a busy mind and prepare your body for deep, restful sleep.
In this live online 60-minute online workshop, we will walk step-by-step through three gentle Vata soothing breathing techniques, flow through a continuous guided practice together, and finish with a relaxing sleep meditation. You will leave feeling completely grounded, deeply relaxed, and ready to enjoy quiet, peaceful nights at home.
"I have struggled with sleep for many years, and was both excited and a bit nervous to join Belinda's breathing class, as I am a beginner to Ayurveda. Belinda put me at ease right away. She is an excellent teacher who meets people where they are. The breathwork and other techniques were a bit uncomfortable at first. Once they worked, I was committed to the journey. While having a daily practice felt like it might be a bit much for me at first, I am grateful as it really provided the reinforcement to put in place effective new habits for my sleep. I highly recommend this class and Belinda as a practitioner. " ~LMR
