Therapeutic Yoga for Pain Relief | Constructive Rest, Chair Savasana & Yoga Nidra Take a gentle pause and give your body the support it needs with this deeply soothing therapeutic yoga practice. Designed specifically for pain relief, this session blends three powerful tools that require no effort on your part: - Constructive Rest Pose – to release the psoas muscle, calm the nervous system and allow the legs and spine to rest - Chair Savasana – for supported relaxation and allow for low back decompression. Savasana is typically done with legs straight, but this option can be so soothing for your low back - Yoga Nidra (Guided Relaxation) – a meditative rest to calm the nervous system and invite healing from within. During Chair Savasana you will be guided to let go even more. Often when we have pain, our mind is only focused on the area that is painful. Yoga Nidra can allow for the whole body to receive attention When you're in pain, your nervous system often goes into a state of heightened alert, also known as sympathetic nervous system activation — the "fight or flight" response. The Nervous System’s Role in Pain - Your brain and spinal cord (central nervous system) receive pain signals from the body through nerves (the peripheral nervous system). - When pain is persistent (like with chronic pain), the brain may start to interpret even mild sensations as dangerous. - This creates a feedback loop: more pain → more alertness → more sensitivity. Your body responds to pain as if it is under threat Symptoms could be: Muscles tense to protect the area Breathing becomes shallow Heart rate increases Digestion slows down You may feel anxious, restless, or fatigued This constant alertness makes it harder for the body to rest, heal, or regulate pain effectively. Why Gentle therapeutic yoga, breathwork, and yoga nidra can help: -Shift you into the parasympathetic state ("rest and digest") -Reduce the intensity of pain signals -Help your brain and body feel safe again -Support long-term nervous system regulation So when I say “pause and reset”, it’s not just relaxing — it’s helping your entire system come back into balance. This practice is ideal for those living with chronic pain, fatigue, or recovering from injury. You’ll be guided slowly and mindfully, with lots of cues for comfort and care. No prior yoga experience is needed — just a willingness to rest and receive. 🔔 Don't forget to like, comment, and subscribe if this practice supports you. #TherapeuticYoga #YogaForPainRelief #ConstructiveRest #ChairSavasana #YogaNidra #ChronicPainSupport #RestorativeYoga #MindBodyHealing

Release tension and find ease in your low back and hips with this short, gentle somatic movement practice. These mindful, slow movements help re-educate your nervous system, unwind holding patterns, and support long-term mobility and comfort. These are the same movements of hip and back and shoulders we do when we walk so you might notice afterwards how you feel walking. Whether you’re feeling tight from sitting, stress, or overuse — these movements are designed to help you restore balance, relieve stiffness, and reconnect with your body. What is Somatics? Somatics is a body-based approach rooted in neuroscience that helps re-educate the brain–body connection. Through slow, mindful movements, we bring awareness to habitual patterns of tension stored in the nervous system. By consciously sensing and releasing these patterns, the brain learns new pathways for ease and coordination — supporting mobility, relaxation, and overall well-being. #SomaticMovement #LowBackRelease #HipRelease #GentleYoga #MindfulMovement #BackCare #Mobility #PainRelief #NervousSystemReset
