Our final posture of class is called corpse pose or savasana. Savasana is not a power nap, but a time to rest your nervous system. During savasana we have a chance to practice pratyahara, which is a Sanskrit term meaning to withdraw the senses. This practice isn't easy for everyone, but it's something to practice, just like a physical pose, in order to fully enjoy its benefits of a calmer mind and body.
