How Does Yoga Nidra Work?
Yoga Nidra brings us to the deepest level of stillness, allowing us to recognize our wholeness.
Everything is seen, felt, and thought by the body.
Yoga Nidra is “yogic sleep”, it is a guided meditation using a series of structured awareness techniques to optimize physical restoration. Yoga Nidra is a practice of deep, conscious relaxation that helps to remove unconscious patterns, self-limiting beliefs, and habits of the mind. It does this by shifting consciousness to our inner landscapes and making subtle changes on an energetic level. Through the practice of Yoga Nidra we realize we are NOT our emotions or thoughts but the container that holds them.
What is Yoga Nidra?
30-40 minutes of guided meditation (“yogic sleep”) typically practiced lying down, but can be done sitting up. There will be a brief intro followed by the practice and time afterwards if needed to debrief.
Is this a physical practice?
No there are very minimal movements in this practice, this practice is about stillness, rest, and deep restoration of the nervous system
What do I need to practice this?
*Somewhere to sit or lay down that you will be comfortable for 30-40 minutes of rest.
*A space where you won't be interrupted, put pets and others aside.
What else might make me comfortable?
*socks, a blanket, headphones, an eye pillow or eye mask
You cannot do this wrong! All experiences are ok. Through the practice of Yoga Nidra we realize we are NOT our emotions or thoughts but the container that holds them.
