Yoga Collection
Restorative Yoga Meets Deep Pressure Touch
Now introducing select Sommerfly® products in a whole new way!
In this new collection discover how our sensory tools can support your restorative yoga practice by gently activating the body’s calming “rest and digest” response through deep pressure touch.
Mindfully designed these new methods for using our products enhance grounding, deepen breath, and ease muscular tension in supported poses. Please check out our “Yoga with Sommerfly” article listed in our resources to read more about these practices from Hollie Marron, OTR/L, RYT.
What You'll Find in This Collection:
Sleep Tight™ Weighted Blanket
Specifically the XS and Small sizes for safe and informed restoration
Using our sleep tight extra small or small during your restorative yoga is something which offers grounding weight over your shoulders, back, and hips during poses like Child’s Pose, Legs-Up-the-Wall, and Basic Relaxation Pose. Providing a safe, soft way to deepen your calm.
Sit Tight™ Weighted Lap Pad
Specifically in Small, Medium, and Large sizes for safe and informed restoration
We found this product to be perfect for placing across the lap in seated meditation or reclined poses. It promotes stillness, breath awareness, and a soothing sense of body connection.
Classic Shoulder Wrap
Using this during your restorative yoga session looks like it draped gently across the shoulders in Basic Meditation Pose, giving focused, calming input to the upper body, providing a powerful cue to release jaw and neck tension.
Wristful Fidgets™
Worn around the wrists or forearms, these soft, stretchy bands provide gentle compression and weight during restorative holds, helping some individuals ground into breath and stillness.
Why It Works:
These tools apply Deep Pressure Touch (DPT), a form of sensory input shown in peer-reviewed research to calm the nervous system by activating the parasympathetic response. That’s the body’s natural “rest and digest” state — the same one restorative yoga is designed to cultivate
This collection is ideal for:
-
Adults experienced with restorative yoga
-
Yoga instructors and therapists looking to enhance instruction with sensory tools
-
Anyone seeking deeper relaxation through grounded, supported poses
*Please consult a qualified instructor and always listen to your body. These tools are designed to support — not strain — your practice.
