Product Description
Experience the rest of your life with restorative yoga, the supported poses and breathing practices that will help you heal the effects of chronic stress. In Relax and Renew, the first book exclusively devoted to this work, the author offers in-depth guidance in the Basic Relaxation Pose (Savasana), the heart of restorative practice. In addition, this book provides yoga sequences for busy days, including a fifteen-minute practice, yoga at your desk, and the Totally Invisible Relaxation; programs for back pain, headaches, insomnia, jet lag, and breathing problems; a special section for women during menstruation, pregnancy, and menopause; a guide to props; and resources for finding a yoga teacher, recommended books, magazines, newsletters, audio programs, yoga vacations, and more.
From the Author
Learning to spend 10 minutes a day doing nothing
Even though I am a yoga teacher, just like everyone else, I am busy, busy, busy. But I have found spending a few minutes a day practicing a restorative yoga pose not only changes the flow of the rest of my day but also positively effects my personal relationships and my writing. I simply enjoy life more when I take time to "be" instead of "do" every minute of the day. I think you will, too.

4.0 out of 5 stars
relax & renew,
This review is from: Relax and Renew: Restful Yoga for Stressful Times (Paperback)
After only skimming the surface of this boook im aware book will take time to work through. Even so its nicely presented & wil be of most use to serious yoga enthusiasts or people who have already attended restorative wokshops. This type of yoga can be powerfull but also faffy to set up & takes various props & aids. You may find two or thre postures that suite you Or to use within your other routines or your movement is restricted or at paticular times in life, after illnesss or trauma!

A Spiritually-Inspired Book!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Relax and Renew: Restful Yoga for Stressful Times (Paperback)
So much of "doing" yoga seems to focus on extreme physical performance. Judith's philosophy of just relaxing and doing it, is a great relief. Practicing yoga can become another chore, another ritual. This book is a welcome paradigm shift in the yoga world! For the eternal beginner in all of us!

A must for anyone who wants to reduce stress in their life!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Relax and Renew: Restful Yoga for Stressful Times (Paperback)
Judith Lasater's wonderful book on restorative yoga, Relax & Renew, sits near my yoga mat in plain view, reminding me to take time everyday to restore and replenish myself. Two years ago my already busy life as a mother, yoga teacher, writer and community activist got even busier when I decided to run for public office and serve on our local City Council. Instead of drinking coffee to keep going, I practice the restorative poses taught in Judith Lasater's book. I refer to Relax & Renew regularly to deepen my own understanding of restorative yoga and also to better instruct my students. For busy people juggling many hats, I recommend this book highly! A must read for politicians and anyone wanting to reduce stress in their life!
