Show Notes

Much of a yoga practice can, from the outside, look like very little is happening. In a meditation practice it might look like we are just sitting there, but as we all know, that "just sitting there" can be a wild experience and a potent place to make friends with ourselves.

Pausing in an asana practice to rest in Child's Pose can look like a lull in the action, even though we know the space between is sometimes the most powerful.

Resting in a restorative yoga pose can look like an extra cozy nap... And while it can be that, Octavia Raheem (she/her) is here today to tell us why deep rest can serve as a tool for courage and resilience!
