Seated Restorative Yoga, Sound Bath, with Gentle Movement Session

Seated Restorative Yoga, Sound Bath Session, with Gentle Movement

Join Red Bird Retreats for a mid summer recovery session! You're invited to a restorative self-care experience focused on nervous system regulation and intentional movement. Give yourself permission to slow down, reset, and reconnect.

The session will offer a unique approach combining seated restorative yoga, sound healing, and gentle movement. During the first 30 minutes, participants will use supportive and comfortable yoga chairs to hold gentle poses for several minutes, encouraging deep relaxation and a nervous system restoration. The physical effort is minimal, allowing the body to soften and the mind to quiet. During the session, participants will be guided through a meditation to enhance and encourage deep relaxation.

As participants rest in these poses, the experience is accompanied by a sound bath, where healing vibrations from crystal singing bowls envelop the space. The sound frequencies enrich the meditative state which helps with clearing energetic blockages and enhances emotional release.

The session closes with a few minutes of silent integration leaving participants grounded, refreshed, and deeply relaxed before beginning gentle movement.

Participants will then transition to their mats for a gentle movement session designed to reconnect the body through mindful mobility, balance, and light resistance band exercises. This portion of the experience focuses on improving movement quality, releasing tension, and building a stronger mind-body connection through slow, intentional movement.

Suitable for all fitness levels, the session will have different modifications for participants while developing strength, stability, and mobility, leaving them feeling refreshed, energized and stronger.

What is Restorative Yoga/Movement?

Restorative Yoga or Movement is the practice of asanas. There will be 3-4 poses in a session which are held for longer periods of time than traditional yoga. The participant will be supported in the poses with props, blankets, and towels to assist with the process of relaxing the nervous system and decreasing feelings of stress in the mind and body. Each participant will be guided through the movements and eased into deep relaxation; allowing themselves to quiet their mind, body, and emotions.

What is Sound Healing?

Sounds healing is the use of tones and vibrations that assist in relaxation and promotes balance in the mind, body, and psyche. Sound healing uses various tools (bowls, chimes, tuning forks, etc.) and ” sound frequencies to create a therapeutic atmosphere to promote deep rest, nervous system rebalancing, and emotional release”.
