Sunday Yoga Nidra Refresh

Yoga nidra is a conscious state of relaxation and heightened awareness in which the body may be completely still. When you wake up from yoga nidra, you feel calm, focused, and refreshed – perfect for managing stress at home or at work. Yoga nidra is an ancient practice that was talked about in the Vedic scriptures around 5000 years ago. It gained popularity through the healing tradition of Siddha medicine thousands of years ago in India where it became a fundamental element of medical treatment

How does Yoga Nidra work?

We systematically relax each aspect of the self, starting with the physical body and moving our awareness inward and towards the more subtle layers that make up who we are. Ancient yogi's used this practice to restore energy levels and to reinvigorate a clouded, fatigued mind. They say that one hour of yoga nidra is equal to four hours of regular sleep. Anyone can practice yoga nidra, there is only one pose to master, and if you fall asleep, it is perfectly fine! You just need to find a quiet place, get as comfortable as possible, and listen... that is it!
