Shavasana: the crown jewel of yoga class, the ultimate relaxation after the mental and physical effort of practice. Its name translates to Corpse Pose, and the idea is the death of the ego and total union into bliss. As a yogi, one of my favorite treats of taking yoga classes is the occasional special addition to the end of practice: a moment of caring touch from my teacher that deepens my relaxation and gives me all the good yummy feelings. As a yoga teacher, this is one of my favorite things to offer my students. I can't count how many grateful remarks I've received over the years related to this one offering. But it is important to approach shavasana touches with the right energy, get permission, and have good techniques. I teach this workshop in my Yoga Teacher Trainings on how to offer Amazing Shavasana Assists and I'd like to share it yoga teachers and aspiring teachers.
