Deep Rest

Somatic Movement & Restorative Yoga for Nervous System Care

Deep Rest is a slower, intentional approach to movement and relaxation that creates space to release physical tension, quiet the mind, and develop a deeper awareness of your body.

Combining elements of Yin yoga, restorative yoga, somatic movement, and breathwork, each session offers an opportunity to slow down and pay attention to how your body feels. Through gentle movements, longer-held stretches, supported positions, and moments of stillness, we explore ways to ease tension, encourage relaxation, and support nervous system regulation.

So much of our day is spent moving from one responsibility to the next, often without noticing how much tension we're carrying or how we're responding to stress. Deep Rest offers dedicated time to turn your attention inward, notice physical sensations, and become more familiar with what your body needs.

Sessions are personalized to your comfort, mobility, and individual needs. There is no expectation to achieve a particular pose, reach a certain level of flexibility, or have any previous yoga experience. The focus is on creating an environment where you can move comfortably, feel supported, and experience rest without pressure.

This practice is for anyone looking to slow down, manage everyday stress, improve body awareness, release physical tension, or simply make more space for rest.

Private & Small Group Sessions

I offer private and small group Deep Rest sessions at Good Medicine Collective in Portland, Maine, as well as in-home private sessions on the Portland Peninsula. Each experience is thoughtfully adapted to the individual or group, creating a comfortable, supportive space for movement, stillness, and rest.
