Hello friends. I would like to make all aware that Anowara is in the process of moving out of its well-loved studio space. Through the generous, open heart of Nacole Insognia, group restorative classes and yoga therapy practicum sessions will be based out of Nacole's studio - Blooming Lotus Yoga & Wellness - in Johnstown. I am grateful for the compassionate friendship and support of Nacole and our yoga community, and I look forward to the new opportunities that will come from this shift.

Please watch for more restorative events through Blooming Lotus. With my first Yoga Therapy practicum starting in July, I will be offering a series on meditation, mindfulness, and yoga and I am sure we will find room for restorative poses in these sessions. If you or anyone you know is interested in exploring this over the summer, please feel free to private message me on FB, text/call @ 518.848.4571, or email @ karenlclark2020@yahoo.com.

Thank you all again. Take time to pause, let go, and trust the new paths that arise in life to guide your journey ❤️🙏

For the past 6 months, I have worked to mindfully dismantle our home care agency while also moving full steam ahead into my yoga therapy certification program. I thought it might be easier to do it this way. I don’t know what I was thinking there - it is hard to let go knowing many lives are impacted by our decision to step down from the challenges facing this industry in this state. It is hard to move forward when providing end-of-life care to a well-loved business and its people. Yet, amidst the sadness and grief, it is intriguing that the mind and soul still want to learn, try new things, and find different ways to be of help to others.

Today, I started to take a few things down from my office walls. This artwork has followed me throughout my career, and is filled with memories that bring me peace and happiness even on the hardest days. It warmed my heart to bring this print of inspirational quotes into the studio this afternoon. This simple act helped me honor the belief there are many more experiences ahead for me through this space.

Thank you all for being present during this very, very hard time. I am grateful for each and every one of you ❤️🙏 Please be on the lookout for new events as my schedule opens up!!! (BTW - I’m teaching @ 6 pm on 6/23 with Nacole Insognia at the Blooming Lotus Yoga & Wellness - restorative and sound healing - space is limited! Check it out 😉)

Hello everyone! The next restorative class will be held on Sunday, November 26th, from 4 to 6 pm at the studio here in Palatine Bridge.

Creating the Space...Honoring the Body...Caring for the Soul

Anowara Yoga & Wellness LLC is located in the heart of the Mohawk Valley in the historic Palatine Schoolhouse at 59 W. Grand Street in Palatine Bridge, NY. Named for the strength, stability, and peacekeeping attributes of the turtle or “anowara” as spoken by the native Mohawk tribe, this studio specializes in restorative yoga with the unique ability to provide foundational yoga therapeutics. Karen Clark, owner and certified restorative yoga instructor, received her restorative yoga training from Ann Saffi Biasetti, LCSW, PhD who is nationally-recognized as an author, certified yoga therapist and licensed psychotherapist in Saratoga Springs, NY. Karen has more than 800 certified hours of yoga training with 300+ training hours in restorative practice.

Restorative yoga is a passive practice of stillness in the mind and body. The intentional use of props (blankets, bolsters, blocks, weighted sandbags and eye pillows, etc.) allows the body to be fully supported in all positions. As the body releases, it enters into a very deep state of rest and relaxation which promotes health and well-being. The instructor guides participants through a centering meditation and poses selected for the practice, mindfully attending to proper positioning, comfort and safety. Each session is closed with re-centering or integration and opportunity for reflection. Participants generally experience a significant shift in sensations from the beginning to the end of a session, and find that they can access a different level of self-awareness outside of the yoga studio. Restorative yoga is a beautiful component of any self-care practice.

Class size is limited to four participants and requires reservations in advance. Individual sessions are arranged privately at the convenience of the student and instructor. All equipment is provided by the studio; no prior experience or knowledge of yoga is required. Restorative yoga truly is a practice for every body!
