In Yin Yoga, we hold the pose for the purpose of nurturing the body. We also focus on relieving tension and improving flexibility. However, in Restorative yoga, we hold the poses for the purpose of creating a deep relaxation. For instance, the best kind of practice to calm your mind when feeling anxious is to be in the pose “Corpse Pose”.  The corpse pose is a “restorative” pose, meaning that we focus on releasing tension and returning to an optimal state of rest.
