The Art of Less: A Rest Yoga Immersion with Tania Moutinho

The Art of Less: A Rest Yoga Immersion
with Tania Moutinho
Sun 21 Feb 2026 | Barefoot Birmingham Harborne Studio
At the deepest month of Winter season, you are invited to rebel!
Step away from the relentless, production-focused noise of the Modern World, and a chronically overwhelmed society, to slip into a Sanctuary of D e e p R e s t .
This mini-retreat is a soft landing nest for you to experience Vishranti, a conscious therapeutic necessity to rest in Ayurveda, and what the Italians call ‘dolce far niente’: the exquisite sweetness of doing absolutely nothing.
February’s cold days offer the perfect natural invitation to regulate our nervous system through quietness. Immerse yourself in our lovely, cosy studio, transformed into a candlelit nest,... and feel the frantic pace of your life simply melt away... into a state of absolute Relaxation... free from guilt.
Your Journey Into Doing Less:
- Gentle, fluid movement: to untangle physical tension, and drift away rigidity
- Soft, spacious stretches: to invite your body’s natural energy to flow lovingly
- Melting into supported Yin poses: wrapped in a cocoon of comfort, to hold space for internal Stillness
- Soothing Pranayama (breathwork): to whisper safety to your nervous system, anchoring you deeper into a restorative state
- An immersive Yoga Nidra (yogic sleep): to take you into the Sweetness of doing Nothing, and the peaceful edge of dreams
- A gentle meditation: to gather the quiet wisdom of the season
All for you to leave feeling profoundly restored, refreshingly connected to your true self, and ready to make the most of your year.
To ensure your absolute comfort, we invite you to create your own personal nest: wrapping yourself in your own familiar layers adds an extra touch of comfort to your practice. You can bring along your favourite cosy essentials: your yoga mat, your softest cushion, your fluffiest blanket, one or two blocks, and a strap. Not essential, but you are also very welcome to bring a bolster if you have one.
Some yoga experience is appreciated, but all are warmly welcome.
