If you haven’t read the previous three posts of the series, I highly recommend you to do so. You can find all the links below👇
Part 1: Yoga And Energy Healing For Post Covid Recovery
Part 2: Yoga, Pranayama, And Reiki Healing For Post Covid Recovery
Part 3: Vinyasa Yoga Flow For Post Covid Recovery
We have already rejuvenated through several yoga kriyas and Pranayama or breathwork in previous series.
However, today’s yoga flow is special because of its restorative and calming nature.
What Benefits Restorative Yoga May Offer…
As the name suggests, this style of yoga “restores” the body to its parasympathetic nervous system function, which, in turn, helps the body to rest, heal, and restore balance.
By allowing time for longer asanas and deeper breathing, restorative yoga is the best form of yoga to heal from all kinds of illnesses.
Just surround yourself with several props such as bolsters, yoga blocks, pillows, cushions, blankets to name a few.
Best Restorative Yoga For A Relaxed Nervous System
Now Unroll the yoga mat. Let’s start with the supported child’s Pose.

(PASSWORD- ASANALAYA)
Child’s Pose
Slip a bolster between your folded legs and lean forward on it for the supported child’s pose.
When your body feels completely supported, you can easily turn your attention towards your breath.
Like a wave, each breath will rise and fall on its own. You are free to rest your mind on the waves of your breath.
Throughout each pose, let your attention move back and forth between the earth-like qualities of your body and the fluid-like qualities of your breath.
Child’s pose gently stretches your spine, thighs, hips, and ankles.
Along with conscious breathing, the child’s pose can calm your mind, reduce anxiety and fatigue and increase blood circulation to your head.
The light compression on your stomach in this pose improves digestion.
This posture also helps to release tension in your lower back muscles, chest, hamstrings, and shoulders.
Cobra Pose
Slip a bolster below the chest and feel a mini backbend in Cobra Pose.
A cobra pose like this Strengthens the spine, stretches the chest, lungs, shoulders, and abdomen.
Regular practice of Cobra Pose or Bhujangasana tones the buttocks,
Stimulates abdominal organs,
helps relieve stress and fatigue, and opens the heart and lungs.
Unfortunately, if the illness has stressed you quite long and you have passed through the unpleasant experience of staying in hospital, taking steroids and other medicines, your body and mind knows that you need to do something for yourself to promote the process of healing, to push the willpower and to overcome from the feelings of not feeling well!
Makarasana
Resting postures in Yoga have equal importance as does any intense yoga posture.
Crocodile Pose (Makarasana) is a beginner’s yoga pose that relaxes the entire body and helps relieve pain related to other yoga poses or some activities. By lying on your stomach with your chest and shoulders resting, you let go of tension in the lower back and open up your chest and shoulders simultaneously.
“Well-propped restorative poses can offer us the experience of being cradled and protected while providing the opportunity for deep relaxation and rejuvenation”. This also allows our parasympathetic nervous system to initiate the relaxation response—something that only happens when we feel supported..
Matsyasana
Slip a bolster just under your bra-strap lean over in a chest opener yoga posture known as Matsyasana or fish pose.
“A traditional text states that Matsyasana is the
Destroyer Of All Diseases
This posture,
- Stretches the deep hip flexors (psoas) and the muscles (intercostals) between the ribs.
- Stretches and stimulates the muscles of the belly and front of the neck.
- Stretches and stimulates the organs of the belly and throat.
Leg Up The Wall
Inverted yoga postures are always a great way to relax the mind and increase energy.
Raising your legs up against a wall or on a couch in viparita karani yoga posture can help to relax your mind and improve hormonal function, relieve headache, migraines, and
- Alleviate low back tightness and discomfort.
- Relieve leg and feet cramps.
- Promote lymph flow and increase immunity.
“Props keep us integrated and held, creating a deeper sense of stability and safety, which enables us to diffuse the efforts we use to hold ourselves unshaken.
